Shape-shifting zero doubt!

I can style every part of myself however I want, just... Stop having body malfunctions???? Hell I can make my boobs bigger every time someone complains about me just to piss them off, also I want a scorpion tail

truly possessed with envy any time i drive by someone sitting on their porch with a beverage

made this post bc I saw a fat man with a mustache zonked out in a rocking chair and it made me so jealous that I almost threw up

Oh no, that's awful! Wolf attacks are so rare, I wonder what happened?

Oh...

Imagine seeing a wolf pack hunting right in front of you and your reaction is to be all "Oh no le waah le waah I do not vant to see zis!!" Instead of "Holy fucking sheet, that is zee coolést thing I have evéur seen in my entiéure life"

I feel like a good shorthand for a lot of economics arguments is "if you want people to work minimum wage jobs in your city, you need to allow minimum wage apartments for them to live in."

"These jobs are just for teenagers on the weekends." Okay, so you'll use minimum wage services only on the weekends and after school. No McDonald's or Starbucks on your lunch break.

"They can get a roommate." For a one bedroom? A roommate for a one bedroom? Or a studio? Do you have a roommate to get a middle-wage apartment for your middle-wage job? No? Why should they?

"They can live farther from city center and just commute." Are there ways for them to commute that don't equate to that rent? Living in an outer borough might work in NYC, where public transport is a flat rate, but a city in Texas requires a car. Does the money saved in rent equal the money spent on the car loan, the insurance, the gas? Remember, if you want people to take the bus or a bike, the bus needs to be reliable and the bike lanes survivable.

If you want minimum wage workers to be around for you to rely on, then those minimum wage workers need a place to stay.

You either raise the minimum wage, or you drop the rent. There's only so long you can keep rents high and wages low before your workforce leaves for cheaper pastures.

"Nobody wants to work anymore" doesn't hold water if the reason nobody applies is because the commute is impossible at the wage you provide.

The real polyam questions

I’ve only ever met one poly couple face to face, so I’m sure this is by no means representative, but they avoided the issue by taking turns pretending to be a high-class chauffeur.

Like, one of them would sit up front and drive while the other two sat in the back, and when they arrived at their destination the driver would walk around and get the door for them, all *nods* “madam”.

They did this every time.

That’s too fucking cute omg

what super expensive indulgence would u get for urself if u suddenly came into a bunch of money?? assume all bills/mortgages paid, all friends helped: what treat are u buying just for u?? for me it would be a quilted lambskin chanel bag in iridescent pink

This is what I tried to explain to US platforms like Patreon when they suspended my account for having a nude statue as the background image: I live in Europe, I can go and see a nude statue within a 5 minutes walk. Children can see them, they're not in some 18+ container. I will never understand those policies.

As an American, the times I’ve gone abroad I’ve felt free and open in a way that made coming back to the US extremely jarring in a way I couldn’t fully describe. This is an aspect of it—a sanitized, dead culture entirely composed of constant advertisements and guns.

I'm confused how art with genitals in it can even get hand wringing? that's just in every gallery? How do you even sanitise that without carving out some really significant parts of art history?

correct. now you're catching on.

anyway this is really what America is like. the right wing is currently weaponizing this against gay and trans people by accusing them of "grooming". it's really interesting to me to watch Europeans discover the reasons WHY Americans are all insane. like we didn't get this way by accident there are extremely powerful stressors acting on us from before the moment of birth that causes epigenetic syndromes, chronic illness and derangement lol
