i am going completely insane watching gamers make up shit about horses and interrogating every single thing the devs have said for inconsistencies and then deciding well it probably had cp in it. this is the easy mode version of the kinds of censorship that are to come and you're failing like babies

i think the inability to tell the difference between "i don't like it" and "i don't like it so i have to figure out a way to imply this thing i don't like is morally evil" is the most fundie thing i see people who are aren't technically fundie regularly do these days

Reminder that food banks have the ability to buy food in bulk and can make the most out of the economy of scale so cash (if you have it) is always preferred.

But also, they're not going to say no to your pantry items. 💚
I just donated to my local food bank. If you can, you should too. People are already suffering but next month, in particular, is going to be so difficult.

Sometimes I wanna post as if I’m an English professor, like just post “what do you think the line, ‘It’s a world of truck drivers,’ as spoken in Twin Peaks: The Return Part 1 means? How does it tie into the themes of the show?”

So, right now, the only reliable way to diagnose endometriosis is with exploratory surgery. But finally, real scientists (instead of male scientists), are on the job & of course they’ve identified multiple markers in menstrual blood that point to noninvasive testing.

I am an adjunct professor (for a living if you can call it that), and I am more working-class than a hundred fucking car dealership owners because I'll work until I drop dead, I'll probably never own a home, and spend like six of my ten-hour work day on my fucking feet talking to people nonstop.
