Going through the pile of books to go to charity shops and there’s this amazing kids history one that’s literally like
Give your friend a neolithic burial
Exactly
I’m so glad this post is finally reaching the people it was meant for; weird little kids who liked playing history and death
The book also had instructions for making a paper replica of a mammoth bone/hide hut 🦣 🛖 and I was never allowed to take over the living room and do it
Reblog to give your mutuals a neolithic burial 🦴🌼⚱️🗡️
Congratulations to everyone who moved on without the genuine apology or closure you deserved. That's not easy.
what if I wasn’t tired all the time imagine the possibilities
fascinating to watch society increasingly work itself into contortions about how to make a principled distinction between boy tits (pedestrial!) and girl tits (taboo!) because even as the rigid gender binary is slowly chipped away, we can’t handle the fact someone somewhere might be turned on
some breast cancer survivors have breasts but no nipples; are their chests nsfw? if they have their nipple transplanted to their forehead, must it be covered? if i have my nipples moved to my forehead but then later acquire tits via hrt or breast implants, then are they nsfw? why is a trans man’s chest post top surgery sfw but not pre? why is a flat-chested woman’s chest never sfw? what if someone refuses to disclose their AGAB? must they wear Schroedinger’s Sports Bra at all times? if someone transitions, has top surgery, then decides to go back to identifying as a woman, does their chest become NSFW again, or does it remain SFW?
so many philosophical questions! and what a waste of human brain power and technical ability to spend it all on arcane points of content moderation. at what point does this all become such a drag on our economy, that we have to jettison our hangups or else permit innovation to grind to a halt?

i am profoundly honored by this
Lifesaving tip for anyone flat-knitting a sweater:
The width of the sleeve panel (assuming it wraps all the way around) is usually half the body width. So if the front of your sweater is 120 stitches wide, make the sleeves 60.
You’re welcome
Mantle
Early 1870s
This mantle appears to have been made from a wool shawl woven with broad bands of boteh motifs, originally with a central medallion now cut in half at the base of each side to fall attractively over arms in wear, and quarter medallions at each corner that are now placed at each side of the centre front and back of the garment.
Shawls striped with pattern, sometimes known as zebra shawls, were an alternative to the ubiquitous style of broad borders to a plain ground or central motif. Particularly popular from the 1820s to the 1860s they were produced by European manufacturers as well as the original Indian avid Kashmiri centres.

Raise your hand if you have also been personally victimized by the barometric pressure changes 🥲
The thing is that I don't want to be employed but I also don't want to be unemployed. I actually want our entire economic system to explode but that's not really a feasible option right now
actually i never experience negative consequences due to procrastination. i am occasionally blighted by god for unknowable reasons though
i <3 crossdressers, whether you identify as trans, cis, gay, queer, or straight, please keep doing what you're doing, thanks for being you
I believe in equality, which is why we need a mainstream yuri anime about a girl named Yaoi in order to also make the yaoi tag unusable
everyone following me 100% already knows this, but in case anyone trolls the notes, my university firespinning club put on a lesbian firespinning adaptation/parody/performance of Yuri on Ice called “Yaoi on Fire”. in a just world it would have fulfilled this role.
wait does everyone know abt the ross seal

she loves crochet, she loves to be swaddled like a baby, she loves to claim everything i make for herself so now i made something just for her that's hers and no one else's. And it's not even her birthday yet...
the pattern is the Lotus Blanket from here with modifications made to be worked in a gradient and to make it lotus shaped instead of square. it's made from a 1000m gradient cake on a 3mm hook. I worked on it over 26 days, no estimate for the hours lol
the cat is Nikodemus she's almost 4 years old and the most precious little baby girl
【-Dreaming of the Milky Way-】 Qi Lolita Jumper Dress and Cape Set
The idea of wool fluff and plant fiber becoming actual fabric is so fucked up to me. I love every part of it and I've spent hours on youtube and wikipedia looking into it, watching it happen, learning about fiber production, hand spinning, weaving, knitting, crochet, lace, sewing, blocking, finishing, damn near everything you can think of and every time I see someone on here show a picture of some roving and then the rug they made I'm like Wow!! They Made An Object From Another Object!! How Cool Is That!
this is 2,400 yards or thereabouts of four shetland wool colours, 2-ply, 1,800 ypp, which is my favourite knitting yarn.
the brown sliver was so full of neps and noils that the fibre loss would have been a third or more if i’d removed them all. i gritted my teeth and shortened my drafting zone and got on with it, pulling off the most protuberant of the noils and leaving the rest, for a yarn that’s more textured than the others.
that post that's like "okay but she did utilise girl power what happened to supporting women's wrongs" annoyed the fuck out of me when it was doing the rounds on here bc the original joke made by eric andre was about MARGARET THATCHER
the joke was intended to undermine that kind of wishy-washy popculture white feminism that leads to people uncritically supporting any woman in power to the point of praising and idolising war criminals and colonisers. the original joke goes "did she effectively utilise girl power when she funded illegal paramilitary death troops in northern ireland". it wasn't a fandom joke!
