some people only approach and understand polyamory as a weird kink and not like. regular ass family planning. financial interdependence, fair allocation of resources, sharing household labor, healthcare, child-rearing if that's in the cards for you.

there's nothing wrong with casual sex, i love casual sex. people get really stuck on the casual sex though. sometimes it's "sex is evil for (x) reason" that creates the stigma around polyamory. sometimes people jump in without know what they're doing and have no hard relationship skills, or notice the community here has the same problems the larger culture has.

it's not really a sex thing, dating more than one person. you don't even need to have sex with your partners to be polyam. some people just have different family structures. a system strictly structured around american individualism and the nuclear family enables abusers and alienation.

lord the peasants are so loud today

pheasants. PHeasants. The birds

Don't you mean classist Typo, as in discriminating against poor people, and not classicist, the type of academic who studies antiquity in southern Europe?

Achievement unlocked!

Fire post!

WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE POST IS ON FIRE

still thinking about "decolonising" missionary work.

the way you decolonise missionary work is by not doing missionary work

the way you decolonise missionaries is like this:

"but it's part of my religion to evangelise"

🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆 infinite jaguar attack

"but we need to go to Ethiopia (one of the oldest christian countries in the world) to make them the right kind of christian!"

🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆

jaguars

"but..."

🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆 jaguars

"but missionaries bring schools and hospitals to poor countries" that's called humanitarian aid and trying to use humanitarian aid to get religious converts is actually SUPER fucked! hope this helps 🐆🐆🐆

Hello important information!!!

Bread is NOT part of a skeleton's natural diet and feeding it to them can make them sick. Instead try: coins from countries that no longer exist, dead batteries, ballpoint pens, or brass buckles. These are much closer to what skeletons eat in the wild :)

I live in a coastal region and I generally feed the local skeletons with broken seashells collected during low tide, which are high in calcium and other natural minerals. Very occasionally, such as for celebrations such as last night's solstice, a shard of broken ancient pottery makes a great treat, but be careful, as these are sometimes cursed, and may cause issues for some skeletons.

I hear in towns with big candy companies they use to feed their skeletons with candy wrappers. Because of that the skeletons would be also be out in droves around Halloween. And that's why we have skeleton's as a Halloween symbol.

remember kids- feeding candy wrappers to your friendly neighborhood skeletons is harmful to their long term health! try some old pennies or a handful of colorful autumn leaves intead!!

And if you see a wounded skeleton, do not approach and call your local skeleton rehabilitator!

As someone who was recently in Fukui, this isn't even scratching the surface of how mad the town is for dinosaurs.

For example, here is the outside of the train station:

If you thought that they were only outside the station, think again!

The last dinosaur has a crab, because the region is known for seafood.

You can even buy coffee emblazoned with dinosaurs!

And that's not even getting into how you get to the nearby Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum. Behold, the Dino-Liner:

And if you're like, man I don't know how the museum will top all of these dinosaurs, boy do I have news for you.

And then you get to the cafe:

But, eventually, it was time to head back to the train station...on the dino bus.

Alright so everyone knows white is the classic wedding color, with black suits being common too, but what if you want something more exciting for more than two people?

Ta-da!

Honestly I was just thinking about RGB for me and my gfs and then I started getting ideas for how to apply this farther

and if you have twelve, then-

something like this?

you jest, but I have yet to talk my wife out of this precise color scheme for our wedding. (…which is happening on april 13th.)

update: I couldn’t talk her out of it. this color scheme is described on our wedding website. guests are encouraged to wear the color associated with their astrological sign. ppl are telling me it’s “so cute” that we’re “building the rainbow” 😐 😐 😐

I deserve to be hunted for sport

YOU HAVE A HOMESTUCK THEMED WEDDING???

look, sometimes you’re a dumb nerd! with a crush on a cool person! and then that person makes a subtle insinuation that they understood your stupid homestuck reference and you think to yourself “well okay now I am in love forever” like a dumb infatuated nerd!

AND THEN maybe you and this cool person DO fall in love FOR REAL! and you want to get married to them in spring of 2024 and it JUST SO HAPPENS that 4/13/2024 is a Saturday and what am I supposed to do, defy the will of paradox space???

I've updated it based on feedback. Have fun with your wedding.

my kink is when an npc gives you a side quest but you already completed it without the prompt so you can immediately turn it in for a reward

wait, isnt NSFW the letters on the compass

So close.

north south FUCK west
