nobody understands how to spot terf dogwhistles anymore bc everyone on this fucking site agrees with radical feminist theory as long as it doesn’t explicitly say trans people are fake lmao

a post: liberal feminism is bullshit. women can’t make their own decisions bc they’ve been brainwashed by the patriarchy. kink is disgusting and abusive. heterosexual sex is inherently oppressive. all men are garbage and women should not date them. bisexual women who choose to date men are complicit in their own oppression and abuse. age gaps are inherently predatory as the man is always the older party and even if the woman is in her 30s, 40s, or even 50s, she cannot be consenting to an older man. all consent is invalid as it exists in a patriarchal and violent society. except consent to vanilla sex between lesbians, as that is the only non-oppressive sex.

tumblr.com users: well it doesn’t say trans women aren’t women so this is all fine and i agree with it!!!

you forgot the part where like a week later someone reposts the whole thing and adds “OP was a terf so I’m stealing this post”

 Some of you are reblogging because you think its funny that programmers would talk to ducks. I’m reblogging because I think its funny picturing a programmer explaining their code, realizing what they did when they explain the bad code, then grabbing the strangling the duck while yelling “WHY WAS THE FIX THAT SIMPLE!? AM I GOING BLIND!”

AS A PROGRAMMER I CAN TELL YOU THAT THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU FUCKING DO WE HAD TO BAN THE DUCKS FROM MY CLASSES BECAUSE EVERYONE WOULD FLIP THE DUCK OR THROW IT AT A WALL OR SOMETHING WHEN THEY FIGURED OUT THE PROBLEM IN THEIR CODE

so that’s the function of a rubber duck

I work at a startup and part of the onboarding package you get when you first start working here now includes a rubber duck. We also have a bigger version of the duck for the extra hard problems. Sometimes one duck doesn’t cut it and you need to borrow your neighbors to get more ducks on the problem. One time we couldn’t figure out why something wasn’t working right so we assembled the counsel of ducks and by the grace of the Duck Gods were we able to finally come to a solution. These ducks have saved many lives and should be respected for the heroes they are.

I use this for writing, actually. Explain what I’m doing and what I want to do and the different ways i can get to point B from A, as well as the different problems, amazingly working them out as I explain why I could or couldn’t the different things. I love the Rubber Duck theory.

Former programmer, can confirm. We didn’t have a duck in our office so our other programmer, who I shared a space with, used me as a duck proxy. (For the explaining, not the throwing.)

There was more than one day where I’d casually hear “Hey can you be a duck for a minute?”

today’s Novel I Want To Read But Not Write: wilde-esque comedy of manners about a young aristocrat seeking a hobby to occupy him in his Genteel Leisure that takes an abrupt turn for the eldritch in the second act, except

  1. the narrative style stays exactly the same, and
  2. the protagonist reacts to increasingly appalling and monstrous terrors with precisely the same aplomb as he reacts to various Society Mishaps in the first part of the novel

someone go back in time and make P.G. Wodehouse write this

TIME TRAVEL IS REAL. someone linked this in the comments:

(according to the source, this is an excerpt from Black Dossier by Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill)

Heavy denim "Starfleet" jackets

I love the clothes from Volante Design (“Superhuman Streetwear”); their latest is the “Starfleet 2364” line of men’s and women’s jackets inspired by Star Trek: The Next Generation uniforms.

The jackets are made of heavy denim and are basically extremely well-styled/tailored biker jackets (like Volante’s excellent Hacker jackets), partially or fully unzipping them and folding down their lapels takes them from “cosplay” to “cosplay adjacent” in an instant. They’ve got loads of interior and exterior pockets, and are double-stitched and come in “Command Red, Operations Gold, or Sciences Blue,” sized 37 - 51, 55 (men), and 33 - 45 (women). They’re made in Chicago, retail for $315, and will ship by December 14th.
