“I did the ‘I was wrong’ dance in 1650, in 1793, 1941…”
Bobbi’s searching for inspiration at the local chocolate milk shop, heading out to cook up a few new short story ideas with a friend. Unfortunately, this typically productive location has become quite distracting thanks to the seasonal arrival of pumpkin spice lattes, which Bobbi despises.
Hoping to seem cool and counteract the extreme basicness of this situation, Bobbi orders a cup of rock milk, but when she spots author Chuck Tingle at one of the café tables, Bobbi starts to wonder if rock milk was the way to go. After all, what’s so bad about people finding a little joy in a seasonal beverage?
Now Bobbi is wrapped up in a pumpkin spice experience of her own, culminating with a hardcore lesbian encounter that proves it’s okay to have a little fun sometimes.
This erotic tale is 4,100 words of sizzling human on sentient fall beverage action and lesbian pumpkin spice latte love.

Just watched a woman slather a whole jar of diced garlic on three huge salmon steaks and put on in each microwave at work
It’s going to smell hellacious later
It was so awful I had to work in another building for the rest if the day
Word is she left the fish and went back to her desk to pack up and quit
The stench was so awful they had to open all the doors which required bringing security from two other sites
Most of my department went home for the day
Holy SHIT
what a fucking power move, oh my god.
i am so sorry you had to deal with the olfactory fallout, but my GOD.
i am still so in awe of this woman.
Sure, we’ve all heard about “quiet quitting,” but what about “evacuate and call security quitting”?
the fact that pro-monarchy arguments have degenerated, over the past few centuries, from “the king rules by divine right and is accountable to nobody but god”, to “uhm the royals generate a lot of income from tourism” will never stop being extremely funny to me
the monarchs… bad. but the castles? oh, the castles are positively lush with rats… 👅

H/t @selentelechia on Twitter:
Why do autistic people feel so bad using harmless lies?
I think part of it is a misunderstanding about the goals of an interpersonal communication. Autistic people think the goal of a conversation is to transmit information, and so they want the information to be correct -- whereas allistic people use language symbolically, to break the ice, establish affiliation, pass the time, bond, entertain themselves and others, or to represent their position within a system (such as a workplace hierarchy).
Autistic people, missing this, often are baffled and infuriated when others say things they don't mean, ask questions they don't want answers for, and make noncommittal comments that have no relationship to anything they've ever said they believe in the past or ever will say again. And Autistic people, believing that the primary way to interact with others is to transmit information, give up a lot of vulnerable or potentially risky information to other people quite freely, out of respect for the conversation's superficial text or in hopes of attaining the connection that allistics use more superficial/symbolic methods in order to achieve.
More on this here (specifically the second half):
"When we’re masking, we might believe we’ve unlocked the guidebook to seeming normal and likeable, but actually, we’ve just located the muzzle that was already on our mouths."

A lot of the time when I reblog jewellery on here, it’s art nouveau jewellery, because I really like art nouveau. In general, and in jewellery in particular. And most of that is the aesthetic. I like the natural forms, I like the twisty curly bits, I like the use of materials, I like how a lot of art nouveau jewellery is using metals and stones and other materials to create a specific form, an insect or a plant or a goddess or even sometimes nature scenes. I like …
I feel like a lot of the time with jewellery, it feels like ‘I’m going to use this object to show off the size and value of my pretty rock’. And there’s nothing wrong with that. Some of those rocks are indeed gorgeous. But art nouveau feels more ‘I’m going to use these pretty rocks, and several other things, to create the impact of this object’? I just love the use of materials, glass and enamel and colour, as well as precious stones and metals, to create a form or a scene.
Like, you get a diamond ring, it’s a diamond ring. But you get something like a dragonfly brooch (Louis Acoc):
Or a lilypad hair comb (Rene Lalique):

Or a wisteria branch (Georges Fouquet):
And it’s a whole creation. A little wearable piece of art.
And I don’t want to sound too dismissive. I know the craftmanship and skill and artistry that goes into any kind of jewellery making. That diamond ring took skill I will never have. I just.
I like the emphasis on form more than material that you get with art nouveau. Like normally you hear ‘glass jewellery’, ‘enamel jewellery’, and it’s cheap, it’s frowned upon, but in art nouveau it’s what that glass or enamel was used to make that’s the important part:
(Rene Lalique)
(Eugene Feuillatre)
Anyway. In summary, I really, really, really like art nouveau jewellery?
There are two types of skull planet.

that map of anti trans states or whatever that has florida marked as do not travel is like well intentioned and i understand the rationale but i feel like some of you guys maybe have a pretty shaky grasp of peoples lives
its not fearmongering because obviously wariness is more than warranted in states that have so much laws against trans people but i feel like these maps neglect a lot of information and like. Reason
it comes from the same place i think that demonizes the south and the people who have communities and lives there and i think it only feeds into what right wingers want which is to force people out of their communities . and obviously if thats whats best for people is to leave of course thats what they should do but idk it just rubs me the wrong way i think
it's the impulse to make yourself the victim of bigotry that is happening in places you aren't impacted by.
I saw it when roe v. wade was overturned; SF bay area transmascs talking about how scary it was that they couldn't get an abortion in certain (other) places, despite the fact that California still protects that right for them, and SF specifically has explicitly promised to protect those rights.
but they "might" travel to somewhere else where they "might" get pregnant and "might" get stuck long enough to need an abortion there, or they "might" move to that place, so this legislation is now About Them, Specifically.
as a Washington trans who is extremely hesitant to visit my partner's family in FL because I might get arrested in an airport bathroom there: we can care about this stuff and the ways it does impact us without making it about us.
It's about trans Floridians and the impact on their everyday lives & necessary health care, not trans Washingtonians who "might" be impacted if they need to pee at the airport on a visit.
Ok but this video is less than a minute long & yet it perfectly explains how to communicate with "mysterious, confusing, unknowable" autistic people lol. We ofc have different body language as well, & body language is super important in communication, but this video explains verbal communication so well 💖
I wonder how many ppl with vaginas deal with vaginal atrophy without being on HRT but don't know and were given shitty little dismissals or incorrect diagnoses from their doctors
Bc I learned what it was from trans men and knew that's what I was dealing with, had a doctor check and say "oh yeah" and put me on oral estrogen which fucked me up, the correct treatment is vaginal estrogen cream or suppositories
IF YOU HAVE PCOS OR ANY OTHER HORMONE BASED DX and you have a vagina and penetration HURTS, please ask your doctor about vaginal atrophy. This is not something I was ever told about with any of my diagnoses but it's affected me since puberty. I use cream now a couple times a week and penetration doesn't hurt anymore and I don't struggle with dryness. This is a common symptom of having higher T in your body whether it's natural or due to HRT. This does not only affect post menopausal people or trans people on HRT.
Also atrophy can become bad enough that you deal with chronic pain constantly without penetration. Pain anywhere isn't normal and pain in your vagina at all is certainly abnormal.
Oh no, the guy they cast for Zoro is a MAJOR babe, I might have to watch this
@floofybitch as a known Zoro appreciator, rating on the live action casting?
Looks decent to me, but I'm waiting to see if he has the "I'll cut my feet off so I can get over there and fight you" energy needed.
the fresh-faced bbbby boi is only 27 and happily married, so that sadly takes away from my ability to see him as an object of pure sexual lust
but he's also sonny chiba's kid (sonny chiba = hattori honzo in kill bill, and a martial arts actor in japan known for movies so gruesome by yesteryear's standards that they were rated x), so he's 100% got the chops to be a dense, dry, sexy idiot who'd go to any lengths to cut a bitch
i think live action zoro is in good hands (and has good hands) (that he can use on me anytime he wants) (but im also not a homewrecker!) (just throwing that out there!) (for legal reasons!)
The actors love life has no impact on my ability to sexualize the character, and so far I think he's playing the intro very cool calm and collected. TBF the Idiocy only really peaks once sanji is in the picture so I look forward to that.
Also Ive only watched half the first episode so he hasn't even fully drawn a single sword yet, but I am v excited for the full 3 sword style
hey, hi, I was just on the former bird app and came across this info from a brand new study and now I cannot stop screaming internally??? what the actual fuckkkk
theres' an article from the guardian here and here is the actual study:
TLDR: New study is good. New study uses expired donated blood to test the absorbency of menstrual products. New study also tests comparatively newer products like discs and cups, which the current validated medical assessment tool has yet to integrate, likely due to a simple lack of data.
Old studies exist for tampons and pads--however none of them used blood. Old studies used saline or water, which have a very different consistency than blood, and may not accurately indicate actual absorbency of menstrual blood.
People in these posts are upset to find out that the old studies did not use blood to test menstrual products, and that it took until now for a study to consider something so important.
It is good that this new study used blood instead of water, and I personally hope to see more of its kind in the future! :D
This is gonna be tmi for most so I'm putting it under a cut, but this explains SO MUCH of my experience seeking treatment for HMBL and (eventually) endo
