I wish I had a soft aesthetic but in reality it’s a trash aesthetic.

so

we have this app called toogoodtogo where restaurants/cafes/bakeries/hotels and so on sell their leftovers for really cheap to reduce foodwaste

i got all of this for €4 from starbucks

The America version is called FoodForAll

I love TooGoodToGo all of this sushi cost me £3.50 (the chinese food cost me £3.59)

I Am A CRIMINAL And I Need YOUR HELP

Anti-cop graffiti guy again, I’m now HALFWAY through my house arrest sentence (3 more months!) and the only reason I’m not serving a 4-year jail sentence already is cause of you guys and the help you’ve given me, so, from the bottom of my heart, thank you But I’m down to the last of it- I’ve got enough to last three more weeks, so I’m in a pretty desperate spot rn. House arrest costs $250 per month, plus I’m gonna need $550 by January for some other legal fees. I can’t get work while I’m on house arrest and I live in a practically no-income household with my grandma and younger brother, so without help I’m pretty fucked. Anything helps, every $50 buys me another week of freedom, and keeping me out of jail’s a good way to stick it to the pigs cause they really, REALLY want me to go down for this. Help me get through this so I can keep doing my part for the struggle in South Florida (no more graffiti tho, promise), and if you can’t give, at least give this shit a reblog. Thx everyone, FTP https://gogetfunding.com/help-tyler-not-go-to-jail-for-like-4-years/

ONE MORE MONTH OF HOUSE ARREST

Plus it’s almost Xmas!!! I would like to not be in jail for Xmas

PLEASE reblog this if you can’t donate, I’m so close to the finish line 😬😬

Bohemian Rhapsody. We Will Rock You. Somebody To Love. All hit singles, and all the direct product of a band that was formed when an astrophysicist and a dentistry major found a new friend in an art college, who then went on to recruit a fourth member from the electronics school. Based on this alliance I propose the rift in society between Arts and STEM students was fabricated to keep us separated so as to dilute our true power - and fabricated by who, you may ask? The business major, the only member of society who reaps no reward from art and science and thus must weaken us so as to stay ahead. In this essay I will

!!! WARNING, EVERYONE !!!

IF YOU SEE THIS IN A YOUTUBE AD MUTE YOUR DEVICE AND SCROLL UNTIL YOU CAN’T SEE THE VIDEO SCREEN ANYMORE.

This is an ad about animal cruelty that has very loud screaming of dying animals. Also flashing, graphic pictures of said animals, like a dead chicken or a pig biting a wired fence.

It’s about thirty seconds, the screaming starts 10 seconds in and the ad isn’t skippable.

It can trigger panic attacks and cause your anxiety to skyrocket, and it’s just generally a very disturbing thing no one should see.

I’ve only seen a warning yet, haven’t stumbled across this before despite using YT a lot but for the love of God please be careful. Here is a link to that video but ONLY WATCH IT IF YOU KNOW YOU’RE NOT SENSITIVE TO THIS TYPE OF CONTENT. I’m merely giving out the link so you can report it and I wouldn’t advise any of you actually watch it.

YouTube what the fuck

Gross it’s a PETA ad too, Incase anybody is tempted to watch the video anyway because “it’s a good message” know that PETA spreads lies and has compared farming to the holocaust as well as claiming drinking milk causes autism so don’t believe anything they say

the original post is from today (nov 28, 2019), so this is still extremely relevant. stay safe out there.

They put this in the video too to bait people into hearing this. Wtf peta?!?

Please be careful, sweet hearts.

PETA is fucking evil.

Be careful everyone.

It’s McDonald’s, it’s not supposed to be a high paying job

People deserve to make enough to live on. That’s not up for debate. This idea that some jobs aren’t “supposed to” pay enough for people to get their needs met is bullshit. Nobody should be living in poverty.

Yes, but it’s McDonald’s. It’s not meant to be a job to support a family, it’s mainly for support for teens or side jobs.

Avatar

No, it’s not. 

There is no such thing as a job “for teens” (and even if there was, they deserve a fair wage for their labor, too.) Nobody should get paid so little that they need “side jobs.” 

If your business model relies on paying people a wage that keeps them trapped in poverty, your business should not continue to exist. McDonald’s can afford to pay their workers a better wage, they’re choosing not to

“i hope that one day we live in a world where children are allowed to just be children, where they dont have to fight tooth and nail for their rights and their futures, but i could not be prouder of this generation” indeed.

If Elizabeth Warren's wealth tax had been in place from 1982, Jeff Bezos would still have had a net worth of 49 billion dollars, and Bill Gates would have had 14 billion dollars.

In exchange for that, all Americans would have been granted universal child- and healthcare. Student debt would be regularly relieved, and the federal education budget would be 4 times larger.

Vote as if lives depend on it. Because they do.

If you take bezos money, his service would cease to exist.

And so would your utopia.

Bezos would still have 49 billion dollars, more money than he could ever spend no matter how hard he tried. That's hardly taking "all his money".

Also, I love amazon, but if I have to give it up for universal health care and free tuition? Fuck it, I’mma gonna go back to the stores and brace the masses in a heartbeat

thanksgiving is a holiday based on a falsified narrative full of white guilt and the erasure of history so what are some good native organizations to donate to this coming thursday

please also consider looking into funding native/tribal food sovereignty projects if you have food to donate or money to spare. friends, please add more if you know of them and have links to provide:

you can also buy food/gifts from indigenous sellers or donate to gofundme fundraisers made by indigenous people who need help getting groceries, paying medical bills, or paying rent. do something to help us and our communities.

try water projects too, like the navajo water project: https://www.navajowaterproject.org/

a lot of reservations are fucked over on water by illegal oil drilling, pipelines, or other breaches, like in the navajo rez’s case: contaminated by illegal uranium mining.

my new roommate said that her last roommate had an eating disorder and then talked to me about her clean eating and weight loss goals and how she buys clothes that are a little snug to motivate her to lose more

and like honestly? i have anorexia but this is why i constantly talk about the dangers of the “health and fitness” industry and diet culture bc we have essentially normalized certain symptoms of disordered eating but it’s ok if it’s under the guise of health i guess???

like how is calling it “clean” eating NOT a way to moralize food

how is intermittent fasting NOT the same thing as skipping meals

how come when i buy clothes that don’t fit, it’s something i have to tell my therapist about because it means i am putting pressure on myself to fit into them, but if a “normal” person does it then it’s just motivation for them?

where is the fucking line???

and more importantly when are we going to start acknowledging that the entire world is pro-ana but that’s too harsh of a description so we slap some health buzzwords on it to make it palatable

when are we going to take responsibility for encouraging disordered behavior instead of labeling those of us with EDs as the crazy/imbalanced ones

your fucking Whole30 or keto or whatever “clean” diet you’re on is just as restrictive as the diets we create for ourselves due to our disorders. but we are the crazy ones, right

talking to a guy who works in tech about phones and mentioned how i didn’t like the new iphones or androids bc of the size and he was like “yeah i’ve noticed quite a few women feel like that idk why bc it’s so good having such a big screen” and i was like “it’s literally bc our hands are too small, i can’t reach across the screen” and he was shocked and had never thought about it and i had to explain to him how many things aren’t designed for women and he was truly astonished 🙄🙄

This speaks to me on a spiritual level.

I’d also like to add: THEY DONT FIT IN OUR POCKETS.

How many times have I almost flipped my damn phone out of my hand trying to reach the far left corner?  Too many. 

I started using my fiance’s old phone which has a fingerprint reader on the back which is high enough that I either hold it with my other hand or have to be really careful to use it to unlock the damn thing.  He couldn’t understand why I missed my old phone which had it at the bottom on the front where I could use my thumb instead of reaching for it. 

It makes you wonder just how many “clumsy women” stereotypes come from the world not being made to suit women.  Ever gotten into a car and struggling to sit up high enough?  Ever had a guy razz you for not being able to hold a basketball or football in one hand?  Handles for powertools you can barely wrap your fingers around and which require an extreme grip strength to handle properly?  

Male domination comes in a million forms, large and small.

Not to be dramatic but this post made me have a legit ‘holy shit’ moment

My wife and I were were talking the other day and, I don’t remember what we were even talking about, but the idea came up that we would need an oreo for. I joked about getting one from my secret stash. This is where she made her mistake. She said “oh right, like you could have an Oreo stash without me knowing about it.”

I’m sorry?

That’s a challenge.

Oreos aquired.

I’m going to hide them in a super simple place at first

But be sure to follow this post while I chronicle all the ways and places I hide them and also how I plan on taunting her with cookies while she can’t find the package

She is out of the house for a moment so it’s time to enjoy a few cookies

And find a new hiding spot

Hehehe

They up there

Normally I’m a Oreos with milk kinda guy, but I’ll take coffee if coffee is available

Now to hide them right under her nose

She never looks under the TV for anything. Tonight when we are watching Halloween Wars I’ll have a big dopey grin on my face

Time to up the stakes. It was fun having em here and hiding them around her while she didn’t know what was happening. Bit now it’s time for her to be in on the game she is playing

Four cookies packed in her lunch. Game on

I’ve been cleaning house today and feeling like I’ve done a pretty good job. Time to reward myself with some delicious Oreos

Aaaaand put them where she would never find them in a million years

:)

Got up early this morning and helped pack everyone’s lunch. Pulling a damn Oprah over here

You get some cookies! You get some cookies! Everyone gets cookies!

Then a devious idea struck me…

I put the remaining Oreos in a baggie to hide by themselves. Now to “hide” the package where it will probably be found…

And pin the actual stash to the inside of the closet wall

If you two weren’t already married I’d beg you to marry her because you two are obviously perfect for each other and I love this post with all my heart

This guy’s dopey grin at his success at hiding oreos is exactly what I’m here for

You like that eh? Well you are going to love today’s installment

Look at that. So sad. So few Oreos left

Guess I’ll just pin em right to the middle of the wall in the middle of the living room. She’ll never find em there

Oh, guess I should put this back up

Bwa ha ha ha! You guys! You guys don’t understand! I was planning on doing this and when I got home and looked at it I was like “aww, it’s too thin. They won’t fit.” I even TOLD my wife this and how I was disappointed that I wouldn’t be able to hide them back there.

But then I looked again. They dooooo

Thank you all so much for the love. I knew y'all would like this, but I had no idea you would like it THIS MUCH. People calling us “goals” and stuff… Man…. It’s kinda hard to take in ya know? Anyways: if this post gets Over 9000™ before I get off work today I will pick up Halloween Oreos on my way home and this will not stop

And, as promised, a dopey grin

Twasnt easy to get the stupid video to load. But I got it and I recommend giving it a watch here: http://keepcalmandcarrieunderwood.tumblr.com/post/179330357103

She is so happy that the Oreo Saga continues. Just look at how happy she is

Came home to find this

But she never looked inside the blue chair

Good stuff, but it’s time for some cookies

Image

Gotta have some while I think about where these guys are going next

Hmmmmm

Got it.

Ohmygosh oh. my. gosh. You guys. Near disaster. Check this shiz out:

Wife and I were sewing Elly’s Halloween costume up

Yea, she is going to be a spider and it’s super cute and all but. But. Loooook

Holy actual shit the Oreos fell out from the table literally next to her.

The moment she got up I threw them into the closet

Also:shout out to whoever it was that lost a follower for this post

Sry bout that eh.

Long, but worth it.

That’s what she said

SO ANYWAYS in honor of Halloween, the oreos have been moved to the Christmas decorations.

I figure I COULD leave them there till thanksgiving. We’ll see if I feel the need to move them again before then

Fa la la la la sucka

Happy Halloween

You guys wanted an update and I am finally ready. I have been thinking of a great place to hide em and I think I finally have an epic place. Just gotta go get em

Uh.

Well.

This wasn’t part of today’s plan.

Oh my god… This post just keeps getting better and better.

You should start looking for them.

Hmmmm maybe I should. Okay

Found em!

Ahhhh ok

Yo. What’s up.

Got some separated and ready for lunches tomorrow morning.

Lets see you find em in here babe

Oh, also

This is my absolute favorite post on this site

Cool! Want me to reblog you so you can be part of it? Sweet!

I decided that maybe it’s dangerous for everyone and every cookie involved hiding them inside the furnace air duct. Time to see how they faired…

Well they look ok. But TIS THE SEASON so let’s do this

I’ve decided to play it a bit risky this go round. It is a bit chilly out and time to put the guards over the hoses. Oh well, I’ll hide near them anyways. Put a little fear in my life

Tee hee

They up there now.

PEACE

I’m going to be with this until the end

YOU THINK THIS WILL EVER END?!

So we have beem real busy amd all so i cant really blame her, but common! I made it easy that time!

Hmmmmm it may be time to up the ante

This looks like a good spot.

DIRECTLY next to where she sleeps. Game on babes

This is the cutest, most heartfelt thing I’ve ever seen. Keep up the good work!!! 💝💝

A Trickster! He’s back!

He back. Yah

Hide them In a safe and tell her they’re there. When you get home you can watch as your wife causes property damage trying to forcefully break it open

So since Disney plus is coming out just want to let everyone one know the duckduckgo search engine is great at finding pirated movies and show sights

This way explains why I have such a hard time finding movies online. Fucking copyright takedowns. I should have thought of using a different search engine

That’s horrible! Piracy is illegal. Thats why im spreading this post so people know what not to do

I’d also like to chip in with advice to definitely not do

Like get free vpns so your network data can’t be monitored by your isp. Nope don’t do that

Or use a browser like Brave that doesn’t track you at all and is completely anonymous. Super bad idea

Those would help pirates so we really need to spread this information of things to absolutely avoid :)

Y'all... Petar was in class and he sent me a message because the guys in his class were looking at my Insta... in class, like I said, in CLASS, and commenting on my feet in a picture!!!! THE HECK

"Lool

These guys from my group

Are looking at your pics on insta

And commenting on your feet in that photo 😂😂"

This is the pic they were commenting on, for reference!!!!! Like, what the heck??? In class, too???

Out of all the pics I ever posted (none of them are in any way, shape or form sexy, by the way), who chooses the one where I'm cuddling with my dog to focus on and goes, uhhhh, those are some sexy ass feet?? Or, look at those feet 🤢

You can't even really see my feet in the photo!!! If anything, they should be focusing on Ragnar's little feeties 🥺

You should know that I don't even see you in this picture, I'm just trying to send love to your dog

As it should be

Video games don’t have to have good graphics to be good:

Video games don’t have to be about combat to be good:

Video games don’t have to be linear to envelop players in their worlds:

Video game bosses don’t have to be difficult to be fun:

Video games don’t have to lack color simply because they are “post-apocalyptic”:

Video games can have lighthearted art design and still carry deeply dark themes:

Rethink video games.

But also don’t think that dark games can’t be beautiful in their own way:

Or that difficult bosses can’t be fun: 

Don’t that games with combat in them can’t be light hearted:

Or that violent games can’t also be silly:

Don’t think that playing the game competitively ruins the fun:

Or that dreary, colourless, post apocalyptic games hold any less story value:

Just because a game or playstyle isn’t good, or beautiful to you, doesn’t mean its any less valuable to someone else who does appreciate it. At the end of the day, it makes someone happy, and thats the greatest value of any art form.

Oh, hey! This is the best addition to my post after 100k notes! <3

Games don’t have to be in development to be cancelled

-When I told the army doctor that sometimes my period pains make me unable to function for days, he didn’t even write that down. -When I told my dad “don’t touch me, I’m in pain” he backed down for a moment until my mom told him “she’s on her period”. Then he just laughed. -When I told my teacher before a big test that I was unable to do it because I was in extreme pain and could barely move at all, she said I was making up excuses and that it wasn’t a real reason not to do the test.  -Wenever I tell someone about how different I feel during my period emotionally they say I’m just “making up drama”.  We need to start treating people on their periods like actual human beings in pain. 

-The fact that it occurs monthly doesn’t make the pain less real. It should be treated seriously and with respect. -The fact that the hormones effect the emotions doesn’t make your sadness less painful or the anger less valid or that terrible feeling of being lost less terrifying. Guess what? Hormones affect everyone. Feelings aren’t always rational. It should be also treated seriously and with respect.

Please stop mocking people with periods. Please stop dismissing us. Please stop violating our boundries. Please respect people with periods. 

For real though, 24 hours or so before my period starts I’ll have to go to bed with a migraine, I’ll have to lie in a dark room and try not to throw up as my hormones make my body fight itself.  If I was able to drive (which I can’t) I wouldn’t be ablee to the day beefore my period.
