Had a dream of Milky by the lovely @peko--peko!
I absolutely adore the vibes of this island! It's so well put together and cozy, especially the interiors. Very inspiring!
Everybody should pay a visit!

im expecting a lot of "pride month is over, now it's time for wrath month" posts. that's cool and all. but july is disability pride month.
pride month is when you're SUPPOSED to be angry. it's a celebration AND a riot. that was the best time to get angry. second best time is now. but it's not wrath month. let disabled people have this.
please get angry with us. please fight with us! we are both losing our rights, if we ever even had them to begin with. please don't talk over us, especially during our own pride month.
did you know over 10,000 people die a year while waiting to be told whether or not they can receive disability benefits?
did you know while being provided disability benefits, disabled people cannot have more than $2,000 total in their bank account? the average rent for an apartment in the united states, as of last month, is $1,995. per month.
while they want to kill queer people, they want to kill disabled people just as bad. please look out for your disabled friends and family. please look out for those of us who don't have friends and family. those of us who are out on the streets.
ive picked up this habit recently of appending "world" to a lot of different things and i have no idea why. for example if im going to get groceries id say "im going to groceries world" or if im eating a sandwich im like "im in sandwich world right now" IT'S SO WEIRD and i have no idea where this came from
this ones doing numbers in likes & reblogs world
I slept in and just woke up, so here's what I've been able to figure out while sipping coffee:
- Twitter has officially rebranded to X just a day or two after the move was announced.
- The official branding is that a tweet is now called "an X", for which there are too many jokes to make.
- The official account is still @twitter because someone else owns @X and they didn't reclaim the username first.
- The logo is 𝕏 which is the Unicode character Unicode U+1D54F so the logo cannot be copyrighted and it is highly likely that it cannot be protected as a trademark.
- Outside the visual logo, the trademark for the use of the name "X" in social media is held by Meta/Facebook, while the trademark for "X" in finance/commerce is owned by Microsoft.
- The rebranding has been stopped in Japan as the term "X Japan" is trademarked by the band X JAPAN.
- Elon had workers taking down the "Twitter" name from the side of the building. He did not have any permits to do this. The building owner called the cops who stopped the crew midway through so the sign just says "er".
- He still plans to call his streaming and media hosting branch of the company as "Xvideo". Nobody tell him.
This man wants you to give him control over all of your financial information.

(*400dB Crunch noise*)
Fun fact! Decibel is a logarithmic scale. This means an increase of 10 dB is a doubling in strength.
It's impossible to get a sound louder than about 200 dB on Earth: this is because a soundwave is a series of peaks and troughs of air compression, and around 200 dB you hit COMPLETE VACUUM in the troughs.
So, decibels are a measure of energy.. 400 dB is around 10^28. By the Atomic Rockets Boom Table, the dinosaur-killer impact was merely 10^23.
400 dB is "all the oceans flash boil off the planet and then the crust melts". This rabbit just destroyed all life on earth with a noise equivalent to an exaton of TNT. Aliens on pluto are getting woken up going "what the fuck was that light?"
that bunny is so powerful
Correction. Every 10dB isn't doubling the strength. It's growing it by 10 times.
Oh ho ho Universal Pictures might have some tree law troubles >:)
If you, like me, are deeply concerned about this out of season pruning of LA street trees, why not fire up your ol' email browser and shoot a message over to the good folks at LA's Urban Forestry division (san.trees @ lacity.org) and let em know your concerns about how pruning at this time of year might lead to unseasonal growth spurts that can cause freezing damage, as well as how it might delay or damage the tree's dormancy period. Just really worried about those trees and the health of these trees, this has nothing to do with wanting to make sure these evil bastards get punished for their fucked up bullshit. Just pure tree health concerns over here at maeamian dot tumblr dot net.
Two updates, first, LA Controller Keneth Mejia is on the case (thank you if you joined me in voting for him), secondly WGA is asking people to sign this petition because the same fucking studio is doing a construction project that eliminates the sidewalks and has not properly set up barriers to protect the sidewalk leading to a real bastard of a public safety hazard that has already seen two writers hit by cars. Pretty fucked up, if you ask me.
Hey hey great news, LA's Urban Forestry Division is also Officially Looking Into It, issuing a statement that roughly amounts to "We did not authorize this and will be looking at fining them" All those emails did the trick everyone great work! If you're still looking to help out, that petition about the OTHER public safety hazard hasn't been addressed by anyone with the authority to make the necessary changes, so give that bad boy a signature.
neocities guide - why you should build your own html website

neocities is a free hosting website that lets you build your own html website from scratch, with total creative control. in their own words: "we are tired of living in an online world where people are isolated from each other on boring, generic social networks that don't let us truly express ourselves. it's time we took back our personalities from these sterilized, lifeless, monetized, data mined, monitored addiction machines and let our creativity flourish again."

Tumblr staff: ten options is enough for polls, right? No one needs more than that on a regular basis.
The average tumblr user: Hey guys which element of the periodic table do you think is the most fuckable?
to be fair this is the only thing protecting us from Do You Love The Colour Of The Poll
Some alarming climate news as of June 2023
- Antarctica, which is in the dead of winter, has unexpectedly failed to reform its winter sea ice. This is an exceptional deviation from the norm that has left scientists dumbfounded.
- The entire NE Atlantic Ocean is experiencing its most significant marine heatwave ever…by far. That area had never been a full 1°C above the 1951-1980 average. It has suddenly jumped to 1.7°C above that average.
- A powerful heatwave has overtaken southern North America for weeks on end, with places like Texas and northern Mexico breaking daily record high temperatures.
- In the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico, sea surface temperatures are extremely high. Water temperatures are in the *90s* by the Florida coast, Miami keeps breaking daily record heat index values, and a major coral bleaching event will soon be underway.
- The Canadian 2023 Wildfire Season will not let up, with nearly all annual records falling before we even reach the midpoint of the season. No Canadian wildfire season had ever produced 12 terawatts (TW) of fire radiative power. 2023 has produced 18TW.
- Dramatic flood events have begun striking various countries around the world simultaneously this week.
- El Niño has rapidly developed in recent months as sea surface temperatures across the equatorial east Pacific skyrocket. As of yet, El Niño has not impacted global weather conditions. That will change in a few months.
- All of these events have culminated in June 2023, easily being the hottest June in Earth’s recorded history. Likely the hottest June in 115k-120k years when Earth was last this hot.

Special banner request for a friend!
Stop self-depreciating in the notes. Spending money on gacha doesn't make you a loser or an idiot. Gacha is a predatory system specifically designed to take advantage of people, it's like blaming yourself for getting robbed. The tone of the banner is harsh because it was requested that way and some folks need an incentive a bit firmer than just "reminder to not spend money on gacha" when they're on the fence on whether or not they should spend. You are not an idiot you are not a loser addiction is not a fault in your character and if you are currently trying to recover from it know that I am proud of you.
the crushing guilt of being unproductive vs the exhaustion of being burned out. fight.
