Snow leopards seem to treat gravity with a certain amount of disdain, but this is ridiculous.

Most of the rest has to be airbags, a high-tensile steel chassis and armour plate.

I will never again think that shopping for dinner is a chore.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

Many lgbt teenagers and young adults growing up on the internet today have socially conservative beliefs that they voice at all times that they got from their conservative parents which they’ve never challenged because they think the life experience of being gay or trans makes them politically progressive

This is why I hate it when people say something homophobic and then go “so you’re really accusing me, a whole ass lesbian, of being homophobic 🙄” like yeah

There's a model of culture that I like to cite for this idea, called the Iceberg Model:

The LGBT youth (and young atheists, too) will cut off the stuff "above the water" but not really examine the stuff down below that line that they have as part of their upbringing.

So you get young LGBT people making comments like OP cited, or young atheists acting with an Evangelical persecution complex, and going, "Don't call me Culturally Christian!"

This is the sort of thing I keep talking about when I’m saying identity is not the same as ideology.

Who you identify as (who you are) says absolutely nothing about what you believe (your ideology). 

Same goes for any subcategory.

“I can’t be racist, I’m black.” If you're making “ching-chong” jokes about Asian people, you’re still racist.

“I’m can’t be misogynistic, I’m a trans woman.” If you’re slut-shaming sex workers, you’re misogynistic.

“I can’t be queerphobic, I’m non-binary.” If you’re saying bi/pan/trans people can’t bring their hetero partner to Pride, gueeeess what.

Punching down within your own culture is still punching down.

Also people disagreeing with you doesn’t mean they’re any kind of -phobic if the argument has nothing to do with your identity. You’d think this is obvious but some insecure/unhealed people really do use that attack against others as soon as they encounter any disagreement or conflict. And the tone of discourse these days encourages people to believe those accusations without questioning.

also worth noting that “basil”, in french, is “basilic”. but basil can also be a person’s name. the french ingredients list says we put a dude named basil in there.

And let’s not forget the time an entire pride of ten lions decided to take a nap in a single tree

Yes these photos are real

happy that we're raising awareness but you can't make a post about this without mentioning that they collaborated for the sole reason of combining their last names like this

Big fan of all those other purple links and how “Associated prime” is untouched.

>password sharing is estimated to cost them several billion dollars

KEEP SHARING THEM PASSWORDS

Password sharing actually doesnt cost them anything, every time u share a password they dont have to pay u for that. Its free. They just use that language bc they say that not having everyone buy into their service is a loss of a customer they /never even had/ and are pretending they would have made money from those non customers

They aren't losing money, they're just mad they aren't making more money. Absolutely share passwords with friends and people you trust.

this video is fuckin ancient and i honestly forgot how funny it was

I always forget how funny this is until I watch it again and die laughing!

Oh gosh, I forgot this was a thing!

The guy on the left keeps his shit together remarkably well but loses it a little at “kangaroo” and that always delights me.
