woah WOAH hey what is THAT??

A STICKER CLUB?? (This takes you to it wink wink)

YES. I have decided to shuffle things around.... and my Wyrm tier is now a Hoard tier!! Meaning every month you can get JUST a sticker, and every quarter you get a BONUS STICKER 🌟

New members also get a free skink sticker!

Not only THAT but my existing hoard tiers- Wyvern, Hydra, and Leviathan have been UPGRADED.

Now instead of a monthly postcard.... you get a monthly PRINT. 🌟

The difference? Much better quality, really nice stock, and Hydra and up tiers get TWO unique designs a month!

If you are new/rejoining, in your next mail-out you can find THIS lil guy creeping in your mailbox!

THANKS FOR LOOKING

Will Graham had so much rizz that two serial killers killed for him during his trial just to set him free. One of them put him in there but missed him so much that he decided to kill the judge, and the other who barely knew him killed the bailiff to exonerate him. Even after finding out Will isn't the ripper he was still willing to kill for him.

AND this is how they both looked at him:

#that unstable pussy hit different

chris fleming is funny because he looks like someone forced a jc penney mannequin to watch sex and the city 57 times in a row and left it on the front doorstep of a gay bar, but you listen to him talk and recount his experiences and he sounds like arthur dent discovering that he's bi at 31, like i could hit chris fleming with a sledgehammer and he'd get up and be like "well what the fuck is this, a home depot?"

hey so were y'all gonna tell me chris fleming had a tumblr or was i just supposed to find that out that he reblogged this after waking up from a 5 hour nap like some sort of groggy soon-to-be-hired on the spot court jester

People who don't re-read books are so funny to me. "I know what happens"..?? Gurl I know what pizza tastes like, still gonna eat another one. I know what a rainbow looks like, you think that'll stop me running outside, camera in hand, to see the next one?

hell i'll read em again cause i DON'T know what happens. one benefit of a terrible memory

Take a break, this cute tardigrade needs time to cross your dash:

The polar opposite of corporate accounts trying to come across as hip and super friendly are the ones for libraries, aquariums, parks systems and the like, that are basically just trying to get people excited about learning and the wonder of history/science by posting things like this:

You know how much I would lose my mind if I was at an aquarium and turned a corner to see a wild ass heron staring at a fish tank

check out this awesome back patch i made

if you as a normal tumblr user go around flagging posts for mature labels you are A Fucking Cop

“but what if i hate women so much i need to mark their existence as mature” if you’re this bothered by the sight of real life women you 1.) need to grow tf up and 2.) should just unfollow people instead of having a childish temper tantrum and flagging people’s blogs

“I personally don’t like it so I want to make it so no one can see it” sounds an awful lot like conservative censorship. Same tune, different band.

Now is a good time for a reminder that Tumblr has a very useful tag blocking system!!! Maybe use that like an adult instead of reporting any post that makes you upset.

this is fucking silly man just move to a site that lets you do nsfw and maybe don't rely on this userbase to be consistent at all

i was reading a book on trans healthcare, and when mentioning how gender affirming care was also administered to intersex youth, they said the terminology “dsd”, or “disorders of sexual development”, was prefered now. so i’m curious-

reblog for sample size, ext ext.

Bug is still pretty nervous around Indie, and Indie hasn't actually interacted with peachicks previously, as all of his other homes remove eggs to raise chicks in brooders. So even though he's about 15 years old now, he's having to learn what babies are and how to act around them. I often see him sleeping on the far side of the pen from where the moms are XD

But, he seems to be doing good with the babies so far. Here, he's bidding for attention from Bug. While head shaking is performed in a variety of situations from courting (bowing their head all the way to the ground) to aggression (accompanied by threat sounds), a midway head shake with closed eyes like this is a simple offer of trust and friendship (and maybe a little "come pick bugs off me" since in the wild they would be likely to pick up lice/fleas/ticks and other parasites, and they will groom them off each other's faces. How romantic). She's a little too young to get it, but it's sweet he tried.

I got this message from a bot, and honestly? If I was a bit younger and not such a jaded bitch with a career in tech, I might have given it an honest try. I spent plenty of time in a tough situation without access to any mental health resources as a teen, and would have been sucked right in.

Chatting right from your phone, and being connected with people who can help you? Sounds nice. Especially if you believe the testimonials they spam you with (tw suicide / self harm mention in below images)

But I was getting a weird feeling, so I went to read the legalese.

I couldn't even get through the fine-print it asked me to read and agree to, without it spamming the hell out of me. Almost like they expect people to just hit Yes? But I'm glad I stopped to read, because:

I was curious about their business model. They're a venture-capitol based tech startup, owned by Airbnb, the famous mental health professionals with a focus on ethical business practices./s They're also begging for donations despite having already been given 2.5 million dollars in research funding. (If you want a deep dive on why people throw crazy money at tech startups, see my other post here)

They also use the data they gather from users to conduct research and publish papers. I didn't find them too interesting - other than as a good case study of "People tend to find what they are financially incentivized to find". Predictably, Koko found that Kokobot was beneficial to its users.

So yeah, being a dumbass with too much curiosity, I decided to use the Airbnb-owned Data-Mining Mental Health Chatline anyway. And if you thought it was dangerous sounding from the disclaimers? Somehow it got worse.

(trigger warning / discussions of child abuse / sexual abuse / suicide / violence below the cut - please don't read if you're not in a good place to hear about negligence around pretty horrific topics.)

Kokobot is incredibly predatory and exploitative. I wrote a post about how it exploits minors' empathy and gamifies "giving mental health advice", resulting in an unregulated mess that can only do harm to teens' mental health in the long run.

There are young people on tumblr that actively seek support from KokoBot right now, if you check the tag for recent posts. Those people did not get paid to promote it, so do not harrass them. If you can, direct them towards resources about Kokobot (like this post) that are more transparent about what this company is up to.

This... is DEEPLY DISTURBING.
