#who is vetting this wtf

[abattre]

Can anyone become the Hokage outside of, like, blatant nepotism? Like the Konoha council just gets to decide who the next Kage is and the rest of the village has no say, there's no voting. The only requirement is apparently being strong, and yet the students or relatives of former Hokage's are the only ones ever considered for the position. Also, why does being able to kill the most people out of everyone mean they are qualified to be a politician and also the most powerful person ever because that reads as,,, very plainly a bad idea. Even outside of the megalomaniac complex that comes out of having that sort of physical power,,, just logistically no sane person wants someone comfortable with mass murder running their country. Literally every Hokage in OG/Shippuden has killed like dozens of people at the very least and doesn't seem very concerned or apologetic about any of that.

Do they even have the education to make them competent at lawmaking and running a country? Tsunade fucked off to drink and gamble for like twenty years, Minato thought putting a traumatised kid who watched his best friends die into black ops assassination work was somehow a sensible idea, and Hiruzen let Danzo do the most fucked up shit ever and apparently just didn't comprehend the concept of wellfare. Tobirama had the brains I guess but he was also very racist and thought human experimentation was an okay thing to be doing to people so I think an ethics course should have been a requirement at least maybe.

#does no one have a problem with the omnipotent politician geting to just pick the next one out of his fav mini-me's #who is vetting this wtf #anti konoha #anti danzo shimura #anti hiruzen sarutobi #anti tobirama senju

zoro who is so caught off guard by sanji’s kinder actions towards him is one of my favorite tropes. sanji crafting him specialized post workout snacks personally adjusted for him but still down to fight and call him names. he’s still the biggest asshole zoro has ever had the displeasure of knowing, and he’s horribly considerate. he’s a little confused but doesn’t reject any of sanji’s specialized treats. it’s not like sanji is fawning and doting over him like he does nami, so zoro feels like he can cross off sanji actually liking him from his list of reasons as to why sanji is acting like this. but it’s still fucking strange..

meanwhile sanji is in his kitchen wondering how zoro hasn’t taken a damn hint yet

#i always thought sanji was really weird about showing affection to anybody who isnt nami or robin #bcz with them its just second nature like he likes them so much its so easy to shower them in love #meanwhile you have ZORO who is like #‘is that asshole trying to kill me?’ #zoro who thinks its similar to when you get a dog excited to get into the car only for them to go to the vet #thinks sanji is ‘buttering him up’ for his own sick desire #sanji whose sick desire is literally just to make snacks for his crewmate as a display of care #doesnt even have to be romantic just wants to show a bit of appreciation #still tagging as zosan because. luv my babas #zoro: wtf is your problem #sanji who just made him lunch: MY problem?? #zosan #one piece #txt #roronoa zoro #headcanon #sanji #vinsmoke sanji #zoro #prompt

So our new bird at work says 'achoo' and vocalizes sneezes for attention. Think he clocked me because apparently I'm the first person he's done that with here 😭

#snz #the nerve honestly #yeah he's only been here for a few days BUT STILL #the vet said he's fine and the old owner confirmed that he does that #so he's okay #i was worried like bro was just sneezing #but he just does it for attention???? like hello????? #who is this bird???? #he's a sweet old man if not a bit crusty #but man wtf why would he do that to me

Forgot to tell you all about the billboard I saw last week that went something along the lines of “Hey veterans don’t forget to get rid of your old medications to help prevent suicide attempts!” which is just like

Maybe if you have to remind people to get rid of their medications so they don’t kill themselves the medication isn’t actually the problem 🤔

#imagine saying this to anyone who is mentally ill like wtf #especially as someone who knows a vet who committed suicide in that state #and he was a pretty high ranking dude #anyway that was pretty yikes #suicide mention #suicide mention tw #overdose mention #overdose tw #drugs mention #drugs ment tw

Just found out Alice Cooper is a transphobe.

I'm somehow simultaneously crushed and numb at the same time. But I'll ultimately feel more and more crushed as time goes on.

This means I'm only going to watch the Vincent Price half of my Muppet Show Halloween tape. Which sucks because that tape introduced me to both Vincent Price and Alice Cooper.

I'm still not over how Dee Snyder is also transphobic, too. I'll never get over any of this.

This fucking sucks so much...

#no clue wtf to do with the one vinyl album i have of his #im not mad about losing my one CD anymore #why do ppl whose music i admire have to suck? #im also still hurt finding out about Anti-Flag too #not because theyre transphobes tho it wouldnt surprise me if it turned out they were too #so far im sticking with focusing on getting my hands on riot grrrl stuff from bands who arent pieces of shit #working on listening to more Lunachicks and Jack Off Jill right now #i shouldnt have to put all bands i wanna get into thru a vetting process but here we fucking are

had some weird dreams last night

#had a dream earlier about something choking me in my sleep #it was kinda like sleep paralysis i guess bc when i was in my own body when it happened and woke up in the same position as in my dream #was confused for a while but i just went back to sleep eventually #now this next dream is what made me go ?????????? #i was looking down from a window in a quaint little village and across the street was a group of ballerinas dancing that waltz where someon #is always out of sync from the rest but theyre doing it outside a chapel and there are tables set up for a party (for the ballerinas) #then i go to the local animal clinic with my puppy where the vet greets me like a friend and i show him my pupper but apparently i already #came by earlier and just wanted to visit again ig so i put down my pupper on the floor to play with the other animals and the vet and i go #to a separate room with a bed and an open window facing the church. i lay sideways on the bed and tell the guy we're only visiting but its #been fun and the place is very picturesque and the vet guy just smiles and nods and points out the chapel and tells me to visit there somet #imes its the church of st antonio maybe he could help you and i nodded and looked out on the autumn leaves bc apparently it was autumn #and then i woke up #i woke up to the sound of my pupper crying bc he cant get down the stairs by himself yet so i bring him down and i went back to my room #checked some emails on my phone scrolled thru tumblr for a while then finally processed all of my dreams lol #i think i was visited by both a demon and an angel earlier today #the first one was alarming but not rlly that scary bc i've been on the internet for far too long not to be acquainted with my #sleep paralysis demon lmao. the second one.... idk its very whatthefuck #some would call it a prophetic vision others a call to god. me- an agnostic who grew up in deeply catholic environments- idk wtf that was #it wouldve made sense if it was st roch (the dude with the wound on his knee and a dog) but it was st antonio the saint of lost things so i #????????? #i dont think i lost anything important??? well not any material possessions???? #I MEAN my religious education teachers would call me a 'LOST lamb deviated from the path of heaven' so i gUESS????? #maybe this is just the religious part of my subconscious telling me to get my shit together idk #anways yeah thats it #idk whats the deal with the ballet part but it left an impression #mutuals feel free to psychoanalyze me and we can have a friendly dream therapy session

[am-i-the-asshole-official]

I’m so sorry for this guys but

AITA for telling someone their horse was masturbating?

Basically does what it says on the tin. For those of you who don’t know horses can masturbate. It’s most common in male horses under the age of three who have not had their testicles removed and who are confined to a stall or small pen and get really bored. They typically grow out of the behaviour once they’re older or given more freedom. Some owners try to train them to stop it from happening but most just ignore it because it’s better than other boredom behaviours like cribbing and wind-sucking (both are SFW to Google btw).

Anyway, I’m a groom and stable hand, mid-twenties now but been working at my job since I was fifteen (part-time then, now full-time). The stable I work at boards horses and gives lessons but also offers training for young horses, so we get a lot of OTTB here – that is “off-the-track Thoroughbreds”, so ex-racing horses that people typically buy cheap and then retrain to be show jumpers or dressage horses or whatever. One such horse is Bert, who is the horse in question in this situation.

Bert has excellent bloodlines but he sucked as a racing horse so he was sold OTT. The man who bought him, I’ll just call him John, knows nothing about horses – he’s a total beginner in every way, has never ridden and pays other people (including me) to take care of Bert, but claims to be an expert in everything equine because Bert cost him so much money (I don’t know the actual amount but he’s in the section of the stable where the $20,000 Warmbloods are boarded so I’m assuming around that amount which is a lot yes but also not the most expensive horse we’ve had here).

Anyway the actual story – I’m at work cleaning out stalls when John walks past, he completely ignores me as he always does so I do the same and get back to work. A few minutes later he goes sprinting back in the opposite direction which I thought was weird but whatever, I kept mucking, until I heard him shouting for help. I went out into the aisle and he’s there shouting at another groom and demanding to know the emergency vets number (it was a weekday morning btw, so he didn’t need the emergency vet, he just needed the regular vet but that’s meaningless anyway). I went over to see what was happening and he tells me his horse (Bert) is ‘acting weird’ and needs a vet immediately, so I offer to go see Bert for myself and then call the vet if necessary.

So basically yeah Bert was masturbating. Had an erection, was rocking about rubbing it on his tummy, and did NOT want anyone going in his stall or touching him. John points at Bert and says something like “see, he’s sick!” and then tells me Bert tried to attack him when he entered the stall and I just, I dunno, I cough and say that Bert is fine and just wants some privacy right now, figuring that the obvious erection might be a giveaway as to what’s happening? But John turned to me and blurts out word for word “are you an actual retard” and then starts cursing at me and telling me I know nothing and Bert needs a vet etc and so on. I kind of blanked on everything else he said after he called me a retard to be honest because WTF? I don’t really know what went on in my brain in the next few seconds but I ended up shouting – yes, shouting, extremely loudly, it fucking echoed in the stable – “he doesn’t need a vet because HE’S JUST MASTURBATING” in John’s face and then walking back to the stall I’d been mucking.

As I got back to the stall I heard laughter from a couple of aisles over. Apparently my co-workers and some riders who were there had all heard me shout and found it hilarious, and that made me laugh too because it was so freaking ridiculous. I honestly kind of forgot the entire encounter afterwards because we had a horse who actually needed a vet a little while later and yeah, John and Bert just slipped my mind.

I didn’t remember until that afternoon when my boss came to see me and said he’d had a complaint from John who wanted me fired. I did not get fired but I did get ‘warned’ (just a formality, my boss didn’t actually punish me but wanted me to act like I had been if John questioned me later, which he never did). John complained that I’d treated him like an idiot, spoken down to him, and “acted above my position” (those were the exact words he used) causing people to laugh at him. I explained the entire situation to my boss, who also laughed, and that was that, nothing else ever came of it aside from my co-workers telling the story of me shouting HE’S MASTURBATING so loudly it scared a pony into jumping so suddenly that it farted to everyone they possibly could.

Since then John has ignored me even more than before which I honestly consider a blessing, and I would leave this situation thinking I’m NTA except that one of my co-workers brought their boyfriend to the stable recently and when they introduced us the boyfriend said something like ‘oh right, you’re the asshole who talks down to people who don’t know everything about horses’ and yeah. My co-worker was blindsided by that as well and we basically both said you don’t have to know everything about horses to know what an erection means, but since then I’ve been wondering if I am TA in this situation? Like, clearly there were better ways to tell John what his horse was doing, but he called me a retard and also I get paid to take care of horses not to teach the birds and the bees to fifty year olds so I don’t know. I’ll let Tumblr decide.

So, AITA for telling John his horse was masturbating?

Additional info: I'm on a rota with other stable hands so I sometimes groom Bert, muck his stall, attend to his vet/farrier appointments, give him worming paste, etc and so on. I am not his trainer and have no input into when he gets to leave his stall. I've mentioned to my boss a couple of times that he boredom stims and should be in a paddock with other young horses, but John refuses to agree to that for reasons I don't know. My boss has since spoken to Bert's trainer who is now trying to convince John to let Bert have more time outdoors.

What are these acronyms?

Rating superhero/villain dynamics on how gay they are

Batman/Joker:

do i even have to say it. Usually they have a pretty one sided thing with Joker being high-key obsessed with him but Batman has no interest in that at all. Way overhyped imo. bonus points for the Lego Batman Movie 7/10

Superman/Lex Luthor

despite many factors and the fact they have a son together, there’s not a lot of tension. Plus Lex gives major homophobic vibes, (he’d make pride lexcorp merch while backing don’t say gay bills)

2/10 for kon

Green Lantern(Hal Jordan)/Sinestro

oh my god. They have the whole friends to enemies thing that you could swap for lovers to enemies so easily. The worst exes you’ve ever seen. I think they’re actually a couple in some comics (prolly an AU). That one episode of DC Super Hero Girls (the new one) where Hal fights both Sinestro and Carol and they’re said to be on the same level. good shit

10/10

Wonder Woman/Cheetah

it depends on the comic. Sometimes they’re very flirty and suggestive and other times they’re tearing each other’s clothes off bc the male author thought it’d be hot. I think that goes for a lot of woman/woman dynamics in comics tho. I honestly don’t get sometimes why they’re fighting bc they seem to have a lot in common.

6/10 they should just date

Dick Grayson/Slade Wilson

Jesus Christ guys wtf are y’all doing. They have the funniest dynamic in all of DC comics. Old ass ‘nam vet picks fight with 15 year old who he blames his son’s death on. While I adore the 2003 teen titans show, they got the dynamic so wrong. Their dynamic only becomes homoerotic once Dick is an adult. They have profound respect for each other but they also fucking hate each other. They’re enemies, they’re friends, they’re co-parents, they’re the least mentally stable people you’ve even seen.

20/10 unparalleled

#Yes I did make this whole post just to talk about the dick/slade dynamic #Note: I did not use their mask names bc their relationship is outside of mask work for the most part #smh these stupid gays #Don’t @ me for not liking batjokes I do like their dynamic but it’s very one sided to me #I ship all these people with different guys #Batman #joker #batjokes #superman #lex luthor #Idk their ship name #Hal jordan #thaal sinestro #sinhal #Wonder woman #cheetah dc #wondercheetah #dick grayson #slade wilson #sladick #dc comics
