Wow so apparently marine biologists are all unanimously hating dolphins for no reason other than “they’re intelligent enough to know that some of their behaviours are evil.”

Um.

No.

We have no idea how dolphins perceive the world. But we’re pretty sure they have no understanding of human created ethics and morals.

It seems like there’s a trend to hate dolphins - particularly bottlenose dolphins - and it’s so stupid and unfounded.

Also forced copulation, infanticide, killing other species for reasons other than predation… that’s not unique to dolphins.

Imagine being a biologist and thinking animals have any sense of human ethics and morality. “Do not anthropomorphize” is the first rule of studying animals.

Idiotic behavior. And for what? Jumping on a TikTok trend and making yourself look like a fool?

"I hate how American media will just make up a European nation rather than do any research, so I'm going to get back at them by writing a story set in a fake American state" like, do you have the slightest idea how much American media is set in a geographically impossible fictional small town located in no particular state and characterised entirely by some guy from Los Angeles' collection of half-remembered stereotypes about the American Midwest? They've already got the "lazily inventing fictional parts of America" bit locked down.

No, if you want to play the Uno reverse card on American media, what you need to do isn't to make up a fake state: you specifically need to wilfully misrepresent southern California.

"aces and aros are technically queer/LGBTQ+, but not all of them identify that way. they are welcome if they feel a connection to the queer community."

while this might be true, it bothers me that aces, aros and some other identities after the T get that caveat but the others don't. there are many lesbians, gay men, bi and trans people who don't identify as queer/LGBTQ+, but no one ever says "lesbians are technically queer but some don't identify as queer". it seems to only be us weirdos after the T who get the caveat.

also, have you considered why aces and aros aren't identifying as queer? maybe more of us would identify as queer if unconditional inclusion was actually modelled for us. "if they feel a connection to the queer community" - how was i supposed to feel connected to this community when ace inclusion was never modelled for me? when i was a baby ace 9 years ago, i thought i was cis and straight, and the only queerness that was portrayed to me was LGBT, nothing else, not even nonbinary people. where exactly was that connection meant to come from? how was i meant to feel a connection to a community that was constantly discoursing over my existence?

i only felt a connection to the community when i realised i was enby. only after that i learned that my asexuality was queerness all along. my queer gender was literally the stepping stone for a connection to the queer community based on my asexuality.

ace and aro exclusion needs to be unconditional. it doesn't feel like inclusion of aces and aros get this weird caveat but most other identities don't. it feels like aces and aros are still held to higher standards and that LGBT(no +) people are more inherently and unconditionally queer than aces and aros.

either everyone should get that caveat or no one.

Listen to me: You get good at things by being bad at them. You learn by failing. You gain competency and a sense of mastery by failing at something many times and in many interesting ways.

The sooner you are able to laugh at your own failures, to enjoy the process of messing up, the easier life will be. Because you'll no longer be afraid of learning.

And once you're no longer afraid of failing, you can learn anything.

i wish it were as easy as it sounds

And that's the thing of it, isn't it? Failing and accepting a failure is itself a skill.

And it can be very hard to learn, especially if you come from a family where a failure is a sign that you are a failure instead of a sign that you are learning.

You're going to fail at failing well. There are going to be times when it hurts, times when your brain is telling you that you should just give up and you'll never get it. Times when a failure is going to frustrate you to no end.

And you can still learn to fail well. You can learn to see it as a sign that you're learning, you can learn to give a little chuckle and say to yourself, well, everyone screws up sometimes, I'm just learning.

It is not easy, but it is important.

bitches just want us all to be perfectly perisex more than anything

newborn babies have their genitals mutilated so they're Normal and intersex teenagers get hrt forced on them whether we like it or not while trans people have to jump through a billion hoops to even have the thought of getting hrt entertained because they would no longer be properly perisex once they begin physically transitioning. what if i killed everyone.

and on top of all the medical abuse we are completely fucking forgotten by EVERY "leftist" and "lgbt activist". we're afterthoughts at best to allllll of you

very inch resting to see everyone reblog the version of this without that last bit....
