Gravity legally cannot hurt you if you scream "NO GODS NO MASTERS" immediately before impact

I'm so fucking tired of this bicycle helmet discourse. Bike helmets aren't going to do shit to protect you if you get hit by a car

Most of the time... Bike accidents.... Involve things.... Other than cars...... like the ground....also it's safety gear..... Wearing it is non negotiable.... You are one accident away from being permanently disabled..... You need to protect your brain

Not towards OP

Is OSHA and other safety regulations also cop behavior?

*sigh* The belief that OSHA and other safety regulations are cop behavior are common opinions that people have, anarchist or not. Wearing PPE is annoying and often uncomfortable, sweaty, and cumbersome. People also generally hate being told to be careful, because they believe that "be careful" is synonymous with "hey, you're too stupid to do that without hurting yourself".

But all it takes is one time for you to slip up and suddenly the grinder disk that would have gotten stuck in your safety glasses is in your eye, or you're getting treated for lung cancer because you didn't want to wear your respirator while you welded. These are decisions that you were free to make, but might seriously regret later on.

People will scream until they're blue in the face about how oppressive it is to have to wear a safety vest and hard hat on a construction site, but do you really think that the hammer that slipped out of your buddy's hand is going to take that into consideration when it collides with your skull?

No political theory will save you from an accident. You can either wear your PPE, or can die, unexpectedly, painfully, and slowly. The choice is yours. Go argue with a lathe if you feel so strongly about it.

Welcome to the future, where you don’t own anything and the stuff you rent stops working once your phone has no signal.

App powered car? 🤦‍♀️

I wish people remembered the age old wisdom that if something doesn’t absolutely require an Internet connection to function, it shouldn’t be connected to the internet - same goes for apps.

WHY IS A CATFOOD DISPENSER CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET

Sometimes I’m glad that I’m too poor for my “cool future stuff” monkey brain to be set loose to buy stupid shit like this.

please please please do not buy into the Internet of Things. Digital displays for appliances are one thing, but you shouldn’t need the fucking internet to do your laundry or use the fridge.

The ultracatholics on this website aren't actually trying to "debate" you. They think they are trying to save you.

What is actually happening, is they're saying inflammatory things that get strong negative reactions from readers. People yell at them in response. This generates a feeling of being attacked, so they can continue to see themselves as an underdog.

This entire dynamic can be shortcutted by simply blocking them and moving on with your life.

Potentially fruity

For years I've heard that those booby mousepads are actually really good for a person with carpal tunnel syndrome but didn't decide to test that knowledge because I don't want to buy a booby mousepad that would make me some sort of sex pervert, I was raised Catholic I'm a good boy not a sex pervert. But earlier this year I bought a Gigan body pillow as a joke only to find out body pillows are actually really comfortable sleep aids, so... so I bought one... I bought a booby mousepad.

...and my wrist feels so much better when I'm using it.

How many other comforts and aids have I forsaken because they're embarrassingly horny? How many discomforts have I endured purely out of a societal shame about expressing anything sexual? This world is fucked man.

The fuck is this?? You think you can mock Twitter like you didn't just copy their shitty UI? Trying to become Twitter while simultaneously making fun of them ain't doing what you think it is. It's a pathetic attempt at pandering and I'm not buying.

also im growing to hate the phrase ''hold accountable'' in discourse because its always so.... empty? like you see people saying ''sure this person apologized, but we need to hold them accountable!'' like cool. what does that mean. how can you get any more accountable than a public apology. do you want them to apologize... again? more? get a tattoo explaining their crimes so everyone they meet is informed? do you want accountability or are you repeating buzzwords because you cant find a nice way to say you just want them to disappear.

so to people with this update: stop using the site, which is what i'll be doing as of now.

because there's no OTHER way to use the site than 'click' on the new things. if they're only counting engagement and people using the new stuff, then you HAVE to stop using the site, completely.

if you have this update, i suggest sending feedback and then not using tumblr at all or at the very least, typing in the url of what you're trying to reach which is what i've been doing since the changes are that unwieldy. for example, i just go /inbox instead.

but really it seems like the only thing that will work is to stop.

Metahuman artefact #223, "Violack Telescope"

Metahuman artefact #223, the "Violack Telescope"

Faction: Eldritch.

Description: A telescope made of a strange black material which glints purple in certain lighting.

Effects: Transformative effects are not active until telescope is used to look at the night sky, and only certain people experience them. Affected subjects will begin to express a yearning for distant space and to use the telescope again, followed by a gradual metamorphosis into a purple-black chiroptera-like being. In all cases after the transformation is complete, subjects will attempt to escape containment and take flight into the night sky. Only one exposure is needed to begin the process, but further use of the telescope speeds up a subject's transformation.

Status: Artefact placed in storage in site Omicron-5, further testing not permitted.
