I have a hereditary gap in my eyebrow

These three ceiling fans run off of one motor

The picture of the Japanese movie advertisement is printed on two sides of the newspaper, so the full picture could be seen under light

Shadow and slope makes it look like he’s floating

This tiny ceiling tile at my house

My broken antenna on my car looks like a half sunken boat.

The shower in my hotel has a little cutout so you can turn it on before getting in.

I drew poppy outlines for my class to cut out - they look like they overlap but don’t.

The golf balls at the mini golf on this pier are biodegradable and fall into the sea at the 18th hole 

Our refrigerator has revolving levels so you can reach everything easily

This window that makes my back yard look like it’s in 4 different seasons 

This one dude in the crowd in a neon shirt. 

The way this picture of a frozen puddle in my backyard looks like a landscape from the perspective of a plane.

Modern tomato vs one grown from 150yo seeds 

My neighbors are moving their entire house back 200ft.

This door in my hotel bathroom can close off either of 2 doorways.

Our dog’s paw looks like a mini-version of him

You can see the number eight between the diamonds on this 8 card.

I made a piano shelf

my beloved mutual, were you aware that you’re the funniest person on the planet?

when I was like 10 I learned that splitting an atom will make a nuclear explosion and for a long time I got really stressed out whenever I had to cut anything bc like. what if I hit an atom at just the right angle

i had mental breakdowns over eating lettuce because i learnt the crunch was cells splitting apart and i thought what if i crunch lettuce and. i split an atom and wipe out my entire region just because i wanted a salad

I spent one entire winter holiday absolutely TERRIFIED because my grandpa had brought a laptop (barely anyone had a laptop at the time) and was playing minesweeper (i'd never seen somebody play a computer game before), and his very succinct explanation as to how the game worked amounted to: "You have to try to find all the landmines. If you accidentally click on a mine, everything explodes."

And then he just kept on playing it, all winter, with zero regard for all of our lives.

Rhianna Pratchett confirming her father wouldn’t be a “”“gender critical”“” activist (whatever the hell those GCs stand for) if he were still alive

The GCs are Terfs. A specific type of transphobe. Quite a few British celebrity got recruited to their ranks and they have the money and clout to do a lot of damage unfortunately.

Terry passed away before Rowling started her downward spiral and played a significant role in creating the current toxic atmosphere around Trans rights in England . It is good to see that his daughter ,who is also a writer, stands up for human rights.

That’s despicable trying to “recruit” someone who’s DEAD. Not to mention there’s NOTHING in Pratchett’s books—including the ones of essays, articles, and speeches—to suggest he join in if he was alive.

And obviously his own kid would know his private opinions so hopefully the assholes will see her tweet and back the fuck off.

(GC stands for “gender critical”, when you see that it usually means that you’re talking to/about terfs who are trying to rebrand their image).

For those of you who are wondering who else the original tweet is referring to, they are talking about Margaret Atwood, a very prominent feminist author (probably best known for The Handmaid’s Tale). Because she is a feminist the terfs assumed that she’d naturally side with them, and it came as a massive shock (for some reason) when she very publicly opposed and humiliated all of  terfdom.

But yeah I don’t know how terfs can possibly get through Discworld books without any kind of self-awareness but apparently they do. I’ve also seen them talking about how the Wives in the Handmaid’s Tale are all trans women (solely based on the fact that they are infertile). If you know anything about the plot or even the basic premise you’ll know how ludicrous that suggestion is.

Terf rhetoric basically revolves around throwing shit at the wall and then crawling around in anything that sticks, but the underlying transphobia is always present.

Rhianna Pratchett is the best.

“Terry Pratchett” is now a trending topic on twitter and everyone is just slamming the people who claim he would be transphobic. It’s been really nice to see

Also there’s this

And this. Bless @neil-gaiman

I’d already seen most of this on Twitter, but the Tom Hatfield tweet was new to me and got some laughs.

Also, this is the one that made me get all teary:

Yes, I was the only one in a costume, and yes, it was awkward, but I had to rep cryptid goths in my very conservative, corporate workplace
