You all know why we’re here.

@thecullobsidian over at the bad place.

Addiction psychologist, assistant psychologist and therapist on an addiction ward.

Just like you imagined.
This isn’t just a Bad Idea, it’s a mutilation of the human condition.

Putting aside the fact that it isn’t your grandmother, the fact we are impermanent is what makes our lives worth living.

You’re not only not accepting your loss and moving through grief, you’re wallowing in it perpetually.

Ummmmmm am I the only one who noticed @larianstudios.com’s new game trailer had a Wicker Man style inter-species orgy that implies children were watching it?

I’ve never felt prudish about anything, but that felt…..weird. #thegameawards #TGA2025

So all the far right talking points then. Bingo! She was appointed by Kemi Badenoch who tweeted out she was put in post to spread transphobia so that is a fact on the record
Kishwer Falkner, the former EHRC chair, is on Sky saying the Labour government is anti-women, citing not just trans issues but also grooming gangs and what she calls pandering to Islam and racial sensitivities. She's not exactly dispelling the idea she was a political actor when she led the EHRC.

"Jess O’Thomson of GLP argued that recent decisions by Girlguiding and the WI to exclude trans women were the result of “lobbying and legal threats” from groups “pressuring organisations on the basis that the case is closed, and exclusion is now legally required – when that is far from the case”

The fact this isn’t isn’t the headline on every paper is baffling. This is going to change the lives of everyone on the planet.

From nakedly admitting they’re going to carve up Africa for its minerals to stating they’re going meddle in elections to get fascism in. youtu.be/P2B7DdcnOZA?...

You’d think one of them would have needed a glass of water by now.
Animals have been kissing for over 17 million years, a new study suggests.

Kissing has long perplexed evolutionary biologists, given it has no obvious benefit to reproducing or finding food, while carrying the risk of disease transmission.
When was the first kiss? Over 17 million years ago, a study suggests.
Evolutionary biologists don’t know why we kiss — but new research suggests kissing evolved long before humans existed.

No one asked, but Venezuela is a stunningly beautiful place.

Sparkling white sand beaches, dense jungle, and incredible features like Salto Ángel, the world’s tallest waterfall.

HOLY SHIT. You know the corrupt officer that was in Epstein’s cell? You know the one that did multiple murders for the mob?

A decade before there was a guy exposing him, but no one believed.

On the one hand they should, on the other Epstein would still be alive, so 🤷🏻‍♂️ youtube.com/shorts/7g3Cg...

Oh shit RIP the GOAT. Only time I have ever cried hot salt tears at a live show was THIS at Cambridge Folk Festival c. 2004 (from 6m6s here). Absolutely mind blowing show through and through, he was fitter at 60-odd than most performers a third his age, and his voice - fucking HELL.
