please raise your children to wash their hands after they use the restroom I’ve watched too many men walk straight out of the bathroom from the stall without a second thought and it’s keeping me up at night

Y’all, I’m sick and I’ve been grumpy about literally everything all day. Bless my boyfriend for putting up with my ornery ass.

Science side of Tumblr: how can dragons breathe fire?

There are three variants of dragons. One of them possesses  a gland that produces a liquid, which spontaneously combusts when coming into contact with oxygen. Some phosphorus compounds could do that for example. The second one possesses two glands instead, which produce so-called hypergolic propellants, fluids that ignite when they come into contact with one another. The third kind stores the methane bacteria in their stomach produce, and expells it when breathing fire. In their mouth there’s a piezoelectric crystal, which is a substance that produces a spark when placed under mechanical stress and could thus serve to ignite the methane gas. Or it’s magic.

Why seriously tell people to kill themselves when ‘deactivate your account’ is 1000x funnier and 1000x less shitty?

concede dude

Call your ISP and tell them you’ve had enough.

Now that we have these fantastic alternatives I don’t wanna see anyone telling people to kill themselves anymore.
