People with low spoons, someone just recommended this cookbook to me, so I thought I'd pass it on.

I always look at cookbooks for people who have no energy/time to do elaborate meal preparations, and roll my eyes. Like, you want me to stay on my feet for long enough to prepare 15 different ingredients from scratch, and use 5 different pots and pans, when I have chronic fatigue and no dishwasher?

These people seem to get it, though. It's very simple in places. It's basically the cookbook for people who think, 'I'm really bored of those same five low-spoons meals I eat, but I can't think of anything else to cook that won't exhaust me'. And it's free!

It just occurred to me that flamingos and emperor penguins are literally elemental opposites.

Flamingos raise their young in the middle of a lake of boiling salt as a sort of species-wide "try it if you think you're hard enough" to every predator on the planet, and emperor penguins achieve the same effect by having as their breeding season Antarctica in winter.

If a flamingo and an emperor penguin ever met, the consequences would be unimaginable.

When I was a kid edgy alternative teens/tweens used to draw scary gory demented vent art and it was literally fine cause it was just kids trying to act ~sick and twisted~ in like a quirky way to cope with the world like literally just reading JTHM and going “that’s so cool I wanna draw like that” but nowadays a kid can’t draw like a Nightmare Before Christmas-esque creepy face without a bunch of true crime girlies going “oh my god they’re literally the next Jeffrey Dahmer their parents need to put them under observation or something before they start murdering animals or something”

“Obsession with dark and violent things is a warning sign of being a future killer”

Have you literally ever met an emo kid? They’ll draw demons and ghouls bleeding out of every orifice and threatening each other with big knives and then cry when they find a dead bunny in their yard

I really genuinely like this site and it's original layout and premise. I like custom themes. I like mobile themes. I like how posting works. I like how tag search works. I like sending and receiving asks. I like how you can make your blog whatever the hell you want. I like this fucking platform and for some reason staff is vigorously sawing their limbs off like they have to but they're in the middle of a grocery store and everyone there is going "why the hell are you doing that?" and staff cries "you all want me to"

i want to start journaling but i don't know how to start??? do i introduce myself to the journal? do i just get straight to the venting sessions? do i doodle and put headings?

literally whatever gets you started works! All the things you've suggested are valid approaches, and there's lots more out there, pick whichever gets you excited to start, and don't bother with any that seem like they'll put you off starting!

genuinely the way ppl treat nudity is insane its literally just bodies

nudity is a completely normal fact of life. people have bodies and sometimes those bodies are naked. there is nothing inherently sexual about a body existing. if youre in a place thats been explicitly designated as somewhere people are naked (eg a changing room) you should probably expect that you will see naked people there. this is okay

nudity also isnt automatically dangerous or threatening to children. again they are bodies. children have these as well

some ppl get so mad when ppl tell them to not be mean to strangers. you see long posts like ‘its not ableist to correct bad hygine’ ok maybe its not. whatever. but its also not your moral obligation to tell someone you barely know how greasy their hair is. like the likelyhood they know is pretty large, you can just say. nothing.

She also recently said that JKR’s TERF remarks are fascist. So please, continue to stan a hero.

And she’s a signatory of Jews for Justice for Palestinians, was one of the first people to say ‘fuck’ on British TV, proudly called herself a dyke during a televised Australian citizenship ceremony with their PM, and has been with her partner since 1968.
