As Bed Bath and Above, so Bed Bath and Below

AAAAAAAA

AAAAAAAAAAAAA

One of my favourite types of creatures to draw are ones inspired by a certain style of wendigo! I just love spooky creatures with scraggly fur and skulls for heads, haha.

I will reblog this every Christmas season I’m on tumblr.

It’s beginning to look a lot like shit scram

Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy’s first law of Equivalent Exchange.

Bold of you to add that quote to a picture of a dog. 

more natural dyes: the blue was made with red cabbage + cornflowers and the purple was made with blackberries + maple bark. plants are magical.

I’m so sorry but I thought this was nyquil spaghetti

Legal amphetamines are included, as well, however they usually ask about prescription meds before anyway.

Weed is also important to tell them about! It won’t kill you like amphetamines might, but it can make the anesthetic work less.

This isn’t trashy, this is responsible. Also applies to adderall, which many people (including myself) use for adhd/add.

I think we’re kind of starting to get away from this but have y’all noticed how in the vast majority of popular media, sex scenes don’t actually tend to involve a lot of talking/fumbling/awkwardness unless it’s for humor or to indicate that the people having sex are a.) probably Wrong for each other somehow or b.) inexperienced, possibly having sex for the first time?

but “good” sex, between people who are experienced and In Love etc, is almost always effortlessly athletic and steamy and they somehow telepathically know exactly what to do. I’m not talking about knowing what their lover enjoys, that’s entirely feasible, but they never even have to coordinate what they’re doing. there’s no “do you want me on top?” or “do you want to do [x]?” or accidentally getting in each other’s way.

the overwhelming message that I’ve always gotten from pop culture is that Good Sex happens without communication and, more dangerously, that needing to communicate is a sign that you’re somehow bad at sex, when in reality that’s almost definitely a sign that you’re, you know, a considerate partner who actually gives a shit about people being comfortable when they have sex with you.  

why doesn’t this have more notes

because I posted it less than 12 hours ago; give it time, friend

Not only that but like, overwhelmingly sex in media is portrayed as this steamy, well-oiled, SERIOUS machine. Like… where’s the fun? Pop culture seems to be so obsessed with this communication-less pantomime of actual intimacy rather than the reality of intimacy going hand in hand with not only consideration but humour and mutual vulnerability.

Sex is by nature so awkward and odd and it NEVER works the way you see in films or on tv. It’s never seamless and perfect and that is not a BAD THING. 

You’re not “doing it wrong” if you’re having problems getting a good rhythm and keep messin’ each other up by trying to help.

You’re not doing it wrong if you’re laughing and talking and not taking it seriously.

And additionally, and now this is a complete tangent from the original point here, but you’re not doing it wrong if you don’t manage to get off or get your partner off.

Sometimes sex is just the action and not the climax and that’s COMPLETELY FINE. My partner and I struggled a LOT with this when we first started having sex because we both had terrible guilt when we couldn’t reach climax or couldn’t get the other off because we felt like that was what the whole point of sex was.

Media puts a lot of PRESSURE on sex and what it looks like that shouldn’t be there and it’s AWFUL.

The focus is just so … wrong. 

hey @thepixiepaige no big but this is the best commentary anyone has ever added to one of my posts

We should bring back that genre of fanfiction that's just a bunch of bitches living in a house. That shit rules unironically

I’m sorry if no one’s explained this to you before but a content creator telling you that their work isn’t for minors and it’s not their responsibility to jump through hoops to keep it from you is an adult looking out for kids. they’re modeling good boundaries and setting the expectation that you’ll engage with the online community like a person and take responsibility for your choices. if you cannot understand that you need to look out for yourself and take people seriously when they say their work isn’t suitable for young audiences then you are not ready to be unsupervised on the internet.
