the nature of thestanconfessions ensures that geniuses like this go uncredited and that’s one of history’s greatest tragedies

incredible work from writers, journalists and historians coming together to critique the new york times' (and essentially all mainstream american media) coverage of the genocide in gaza.

ok dude, i know you wanna fuck the granny queen from a bugs life, we’ve gotten your confession 385 fucking times, we get it, you love fucking old wrinkly ass ants, stop fucking submitting it.

i would like to propose that this text post is “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" enough to be preserved in the library of congress

sorry for hijacking your post again op but after posting the initial elves i had ideas for more doodles i wanted to do so. elf yuri (but i elaborate)

i was made aware a warcraft version of this meme didn't exist

i am receiving intel that a twitter user created an account posing as a sudanese woman, and that the puppeteer of the account claimed the sudanese woman was murdered by the RSF. and immediately thereafter, the twitter user started weaponizing the alleged death as a gotcha in their online arguments, saying “this sudanese woman DIED while being HARASSED on the INTERNET for calling out anti blackness.” however, some sudanese users started investigating and found out it was a sockpuppet. mind you, sudan is embroiled in a humanitarian crisis as we speak. kinda weird that someone would use that crisis as a battering ram for their engagement farming.

but in other words, i rate their attempt a 2/10 because the way they constructed the account was sloppy as hell. the account was created in october 2023 (coinciding with oct 7th) and they left public evidence behind that it was a secondary account. they did no research on sudan to make the sockpuppet believable. if it was a tumblr veteran we would never be so careless and lazy. they really wanna be US so bad. smh.

incredible things are constantly happening on the bird website

Little old Italian lady: Do you have zucchini?

Me: Yes, right here.

Lady: Is how much?

Me: $2.99 a pound.

Lady: It's usually $1.49.

Me: Yes, in the summer.

Lady, pauses, then grabs two: I put it in a soup.

Me: Oh nice, what kind are you making?

Lady: You will not fantasize about my soup.

And then she walked away. "You will not fantasize about my soup" will be in my head forever. I love you, little old Italian lady.

thinking about how I've seen OCD get talked about now, but haven't really seen many posts that actually explain what it is. And like, obviously people shouldn't get all their info about mental conditions from posts, but u can't deny that internet communities and stuff play a major role in people recognizing and putting names to their own experiences.

But like since the general public has like absolutely no idea of what OCD actually is (no thanks to popular media), and a lot of things I see talking about intrusive thoughts don't mention OCD (either bc they originated in OCD circles or bc intrusive thoughts aren't Exclusive to OCD or for some other reason), there should prob be more explanation put out on what OCD actually consists of.

Which is kinda hard in some ways, bc there are so many ways OCD can present in terms of what "themes" a person experiences, so someone talking about what their themes are might not ring a bell with someone who experiences different ones. But like, the core thing with OCD isn't the presence of certain themes, it's a specific pattern of spiraling thoughts and reactions.

Like. OCD is a mental condition/illness where people experience stressful, unwanted, repetitive thoughts. These are intrusive thoughts are what make up the "obsessions" part of the disorder. In response to these intrusive thoughts, a lot of people will perform certain actions or think certain things in an attempt to neutralize or disprove the threat they represent. These are the "compulsions" part of the condition.

For a more "traditional" example, someone experiencing intrusive thoughts that they might catch a communicable disease may obsessively wash their hands or google their symptoms to try to lessen the anxiety. While someone who is worried they might hurt someone (even though they very much do not want to hurt someone) may avoid being near sharp objects or may avoid the people they're afraid of hurting.

One of the issues with OCD is that performing the compulsions provides short term relief, but in the long term it only strengthens the stress caused by the intrusive thoughts, thus furthering the thought spiral and actively making it worse, to the point where, depending on your themes, you may be (almost) convinced that your intrusive thoughts represent the truth or the inevitable or something permanent.

Intrusive thought themes cam be literally anything, but some of the common ones are stuff like

Compulsions vary by theme a lot obviously, but some common ones include

But yeah this obviously isn't exhaustive but, just, if this kind of thing sounds familiar, you should probably do some research on OCD, bc while intrusive thoughts can occur with other conditions, the intrusive thought-compulsion spiral is the core of OCD and isn't really a subaspect of depression/anxiety/ptsd/etc. and the treatment and management of OCD can look different from other stuff, so its a good thing to look into.

(Also it's important to keep in mind, esp if you're someone that doesn't have it, that someone's intrusive thoughts Are Not "secret desires" or "repressed urges" or anything the person even remotely wants to act on. Someone having harm-related intrusive thoughts is not at risk of actually acting on them, no matter how worried they are of doing so.)

Anyway this was a long post and I don't have a neat way to wrap it up and also I accidentally added a poll and now can't get rid of it so here's free poll. I'm running on nyquil and a small amount of straight gin (which works very well at numbing a sore throat) rn gnite

Larry Rosso (Wet'suwet'en/Carrier Nation), Steller’s Jay, 1981, serigraph print, 14 in. x 18 in.

So, I came across this print while looking for some bird art to go on the wall and I just absolutely fell in love with it. I’ve never seen a Steller’s Jay in the Northwest Coast Formline art style before!

Larry Rosso (1944-2006) is a Wet'suwet'en (Carrier Nation) artist from British Columbia in Canada who worked mainly in wood carving, but also made a handful of prints in his career as well. This print was a limited edition of 225.

I love how the wings look like hand prints. I love the colors and the bold lines. I love how much sassy personality shines through in the jay’s pose. He really captures their essence well!

Needless to say, I got the print and it’s on my wall.

can we all agree that handwash onlys are attention seeking? you're using the same dish soap as the rest of us but you need a sponge bath because you're too good for a shower

op some people will die if they're washed with soap at all. unlike certain plastic divas dishes that claim to be "top row only" like that makes a fucking difference.
