i see no difference

I looked it up and it's kind of real!

Unfortunately some fun-haters brought the SWAT team out, but before then, things got rowdy.

I knew having Redditors cross-train on Tumblr would produce weird fucking magic.

It gets better. This Redditor went the full Goncharov.

Y’all missed the best part:

Category 5 Glup Shitto event

slowly and subtly doxx yourself with a series of posts like "ahh i love opening my window and smelling the sea," and "i wish the nearest paintball place was closer than 25 miles... :("

I discovered the exact address of one of my internet friends with just little details they had mentioned over the 4 years I had known them at that point (a nearby park, an allusion that their screenname was part of their real name, a nearby college, and a few other details including the angle of the sun through their bedroom window)

I used it to put together a gift package with the rest of our gaming group and send it to them for their birthday

(6 months prior I asked them for permission to send them something if I could figure out their address and at that time they consented to the activity without thinking much of it or thinking it would be possible.)

They received the present and were overjoyed by it- but information can easily be used for nefarious purposes as well

Careful what you post online.

such a huge relief that hillary’s so ahead in the polls and trump has such a small chance of winning, right? WRONG. DO NOT GET APATHETIC OR COMFORTABLE. DO NOT DECIDE YOU DON’T NEED TO VOTE BECAUSE YOU’RE SURE HILLARY WILL WIN. the only way trump can win now is if so many people expected to vote for hillary don’t show up to the polls. because you BETTER believe ALL of his supporters will be at the polls.

brexit passed in the UK because young people grew apathetic because they were sure it wasn’t going to pass. and it did, because old racists and xenophobes showed up in DROVES to vote.

tl;dr: VOTE, PEOPLE. VOTE LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT. IT MIGHT.

*AGGRESSIVELY STARES AT USAMERICANS IN 2024*

People, people, don’t pull the same shit that was done in 2016.

In 2016, people didn’t like Clinton so they either didn’t vote, protest voted 3rd party, or straight-up voted for Trump.

Look what that got us. 4 years of a literal dumpster fire.

in 2020 we united behind a candidate that might not have been our favorite but he wasn’t Trump, and we booted Trump out.

For some goddamn reason we are having a replay of that election - a felon (Trump) is running for the presidency, he has FLAT-OUT said he’s going to be a dictator on day 1, and has plans to completely eliminate a LOT of rights people take for granted and have fought for for years.

We need to unite once more behind Biden. Not because he’s your favorite (he may well not be), not because he’s perfect (he isn’t), but because if we DON’T we may never have another election in this country. It will be a major defeat for basically anyone who isn’t white, male, and evangelical.

Rally the troops. Stand up again like you did in 2020. Get out the vote. We’ve got to make this happen.

A battle was won. The war is far from over.

S.686 - RESTRICT Act

The rules of the game are simple:

would love to but apparently it's paid now and has ranked competitive and coins and bullshit

Results! Turns out there's a free site called OpenGuessr that's just the classic gamemode we all know and love, but you can just play it for free like normal.

And I found some large friends on my very first leap!

Congrats! You win. And thanks for the info on the free alternative

found one, off of road 103 in Cheyenne county Nebraska.

More cows! You win too.

Found some cows in Brazil.

Congrats, and well done!

Do you know what you need to get yourself? An outdoor quilt.

I am a lover or quilts and blankets, and I have made and accumulated many. However, as soon as the weather turned nice, I had to agonize over, which I was willing to get dirty and possibly stained from picnicking. Then, one day I was checking out the clearance section of Walmart and found a king-size quilt for like 25%off. I bought it with the purpose "this will be my outdoor quilt".

I didn't have emotional attachments to it, and it wasn't handmade, or a gift or anything. It was just my outdoor quilt. And it's PERFECT!

Having a picnic? KING SIZED QUILT BABY, WERE FITTING EVERYONE! Only ground open enough is covered in sticks and maybe even pine pitch? No big, I can clean it later, and I'm not worried if it stains!

And even better by having a dedicated outdoor quilt, it helped my roomies and other friends! I would have people come ask to borrow it for their outdoor party or picnic because they didn't want to get their nice blankets dirty either!

It's a life saver. Get yourself an outdoor quilt.

Before we continue, is this a personal moral failing or a mental illness? I need to know whether I should treat you like an evil monster or a helpless child when I unperson you.

This shit terrifies me more than AI.

What could be worse than a billionaire putting a chip into your brain, who the fuck knows what they’ll do with it.

can’t wait for my thoughts to be interrupted by 30 second Spotify ads

I cannot begin to emphasize enough how much the problem with neuralink is that they DON'T USE NEUROTURGICAL SUPPLIES AND ALL THEIR TEST ANIMALS DIED HORRIBLY AS A RESULT

Like, yes, the Spotify ad jokes are funny.

But they miss the point.

This is a scam to torture and kill the disabled in exchange for investor money. It's straight up eugenics.

They aren't just 'putting a chip in your brain,' they're also putting in toxic adhesives meant for skin, loose bolts that drift around shredding brain tissue, and more.

In a normal experiment, the unforeseen death of a single test monkey is grounds to halt the entire experiment.

Dozens of test monkeys died for Musk, but because of his fame and money, his experiment was allowed to keep killing monkeys, and now he's moved on to killing humans.

"Lesbian Picnic" quilt

composed with two charm packs of cozy plaid flannel, i tried out a disappearing nine-patch pattern where the nine-patch blocks were cut on the diagonal, mixed up, and sewn back together, then the finished blocks were set on point. it was fun to rearrange and rotate the blocks to bring out fun tangents. the cream background fabric and blue reverse sheet were thrift store finds but agreed really nicely with the flannel colors.

the spirit is not willing and the flesh it is not so into the idea either

summer is coming up lads..

fight fight kiss kiss fight fight

@arengnera for the best explanation of the conundrum

we say “it’s not the heat, it’s the humidity!” so often in Georgia, it should be the state motto.

I...tried to make a meme and got carried away and made A Thing that is like partially unfinished because i spent like 3 hours on it and then got tired.

I think this is mostly scientifically accurate but truth be told, there seems to be relatively little research on succession in regards to lawns specifically (as opposed to like, pastures). I am not exaggerating how bad they are for biodiversity though—recent research has referred to them as "ecological deserts."

Feel free to repost, no need for credit

Honestly? Shoutout to those of you who are completely fucking lost in life. Those who don’t know what they want to do with life. Those who are stuck in a certain part of life and can’t get out. Those who are reaching for dreams they feel are impossible to reach. Those who feel like they’re accomplishments are being overlooked. Those who feel like their enough just isn’t enough. It is. You can make it. You will make it. There is an opening at the end of the tunnel.

and you don’t even get to nut :/

i haven’t seen anyone on tumblr talking about this and i think we need to

just to clarify what we’re seeing here:

cully pratt, chris pratt’s brother, a sergeant in the solano county sheriff’s department in california, openly supports the three-percenters, a far-right militia group with ties to the january 6th insurrection at the us capitol among other things, and posts their imagery online.

chris pratt hypes his brother, and has also been seen at public appearances wearing three-percenter symbols, thereby publicly endorsing this shit as well.

i’ve already seen people try to distance chris pratt from this, saying, “it’s his brother, not him!!” hate to break it to you, but when you are a famous person and use your platform to publicly display symbols endorsing far-right hate and white supremacy, that makes you culpable. he is at best completely ignorant, but that’s giving him a lot more credit than he deserves, frankly; even so, even if he actually is just ignorant, that definitely doesn’t give him a pass. there should be accountability no matter what.

The Three Percenters are more than just a right-wing militia. They are a terrorist group and are designated as such by the Canadian government. Here’s a partial list of some of the things they’re responsible for: 2017: -Three Percenters firebombed a mosque in MN., narrowly missing killing & injuring dozens of members who are there for morning prayers. The Threepers responsible told police they wanted to “scare Muslims out of the country.” -A self-identified “Three Percenter” is arrested by the FBI after unsuccessfuly trying to blow up a bank in Oklahoma City with a car bombed modelled after the one used by Timothy McVeigh. -Three Percent militia member Tyler TenBrink fires a handgun at a crowd of people protesting an appearance by white supremacist Richard Spencer. 2018: -Self-proclaimed Three Percent supporter Joseph “Dymond” Vinci - beats a homeless man with a police baton. When the man attempts to defend himself, Vinci shoots him dead. -Three Percenter Joshua Daniel Miller shoots a 23-year-old man to death. 2020: -Three Percenter Benjamin Jong Ren Hung, intentionally drives his truck into a crowd of protesters in Pasadena, California. -A group of volunteer medics arriving to support a counter-protest to a “Back the Blue” rally in Fort Collins, CO are set upon and beaten by Three Percenters militia members. -Thirteen men are arrested after a failed plot to kidnap the governor of Michigan and put her on “trial” for “treason.” At least two of the 13 are in the Three Percenter or Boogaloo Bois militias. -After a pro-Trump rally in Atlanta, Georgia, Three Percent leader Chris Hill and over a dozen masked men rush a group of four counter-protestors leaving the area, hold them at gunpoint and beat them. 2021: -So far 16 Three Percenters have been arrested for taking part in the deadly January 6th insurrection

Now what did I say???

Bringing back this post since Chris Pratt is trending again because of the Mario movie

Bringing this back before the Garfield movie

girl help I'm getting they/them'd by well-meaning people who don't know what a tomboy is

This feeling is strange and complicated. On the one hand it's legit quite cool that nonbinary pronouns are becoming more widespread! On the other, I've spent my whole life pursuing interests and hobbies and ideals that weren't seen as particularly feminine, and when I was younger this was a major source of bullying and stress alongside some generalized misogyny taking the form of "you can't do or be anything you think is cool because you are innately inferior and to do otherwise means violating your nature," and it took me a while to conclude that this was just straight horseshit top to bottom and I could do whatever I wanted and present myself however I wanted without in any way being Not A Girl, and now it's like the exact same concept has flipped sides and is coming from a point of theoretical validation but still calculates out to "that's not very ladylike of you, you must be something else". anyway she/her thanks gang

I think it's like. the understanding that the gender binary is a small part of a much wider space of identities is separate from the understanding that a lot of that gender binary is a false dichotomy that artificially walls off universal human experiences behind specific pronouns and while the first concept is gaining wider understanding the second is lagging a little, which means "I am a girl and I like doing boy things" reads as "oh I've heard about this, you must be one of the Others who don't do the binary" rather than "the concept of 'boy things' is stupid from the jump"

just to be 100% clear

what this post is NOT talking about: using they/them pronouns for someone you don't know, aren't sure of, hasn't had a chance to introduce themselves, etc.

what this post IS talking about: my highly personal experience seeing some people "correcting" my commenters that were using she/her pronouns for me, because, despite me exclusively using she/her pronouns and saying so whenever asked, through no action of mine they had gotten the idea that I was using "they/them".

girl help I put a nuanced personal experience on the reading comprehension website
