I love driving at the exact speed limit and having speeders behind me get frustrated. i will get to my destination when I get to my destination and so will you. im teaching you patience right now. you should be listening & learning.

Avatar

the general consensus in the notes is that if you drive the speed limit, you are:

  • ableist to people with ADHD
  • a bootlicker with a cop mentality for "enforcing the law"
  • inconsiderate to people with dire medical emergencies who can't afford an ambulance
  • an abuser for controlling people without their consent

I assumed the OP was exaggerating, so I checked the notes and am delighted to report that they are Not.

Other highlights include:

  • Going the speed limit is highly dangerous and you're going to kill someone
  • People literally threatening to kill people who do this
  • Two separate "one time I heard" stories of people bleeding out in cars because someone did this to them. They would have made it if only the driver could have sped to the hospital/ambulance! RIP.
  • "OP has clearly never been to [every location on Earth]."
  • Left lane discourse
  • "I know [improbable number of] people who have been hit by speeders."
  • Lots of bad math about how much time speeding saves
  • "I have ADHD and I will literally die if I go/exceed/drive under the speed limit."

The more you act like you want me to go faster, the slower I drive.

If I was doing the speed limit or a hair over and you come screaming up behind me, riding my bumper, gripping the steering wheel like you wish it was my neck? Congrats, I'm going five under, now.

Still acting like I'm actively murdering your whole family in front of you rather than calming down and backing off? Bitch, I'm going slower.

Don't test me. I'll do 10 in a 40 zone. I've done it before.

You don't get to bully me into driving in an unsafe manner just because you've got no respect.

my wife learned to drive in the gritted teeth, everybody is in my way style. i learned when i was 32. we did science to it. left home at the same time, rendezvoused 10 miles away. she drove normally (for her), and i let people merge ahead of me, kept to the speed limit, and got there ... 20 seconds after she did, with considerably less cortisol in my system.

she used to get angry at ppl driving badly around her. i explained that they’re not doing it *at* her: truly, they don’t even know she exists. she grits her teeth a lot less now.

The company isn’t boasting about using cheap/unpaid/forced penal labor.

It’s a project offering voluntary employment opportunities with fair trade wages to incarcerated women, allowing them to amass decent savings and avoid recidivism (i.e., having to return to prostitution, drug muling, and the other poverty-related crimes as soon as their sentences are up, because they’re right back in poverty where they started).

No, it’s not the all-or-nothing Tumblr justice solution™ of magically abolishing the PIC overnight, but it’s a significant improvement over the literal slave labor most corporations employ, while raking in the entirety of a prisoner’s surplus and setting them up for recidivism.

Y'all….this isn’t slave labor the way the vast majority of prusin labor is. They have a 30 hour work week and pay their employees a LIVING WAGE. Also the company was founded after talking to women in prison about their lives and needs

I watched Face/Off for the first time last night and all I can remember of it is this one scene

which was followed 20 seconds later by this scene

Which itself was followed by this scene almost precisely 20 seconds later

It's like poetry

Can we talk about how in zombie shows/movies/books they always find a veterinarian and not a surgeon? Are veterinarians deemed more likely to survive the apocalypse?

Avatar

Yup.

  • One of our professional skills is ‘not being bitten by patients’
  • We actually have a good broad knowledge base for both surgical, medical, and GP things
  • We’re used to improvising equipment because a lot of stuff is just not made for animals
  • Meat safety is part of our training
  • Our cars are often full of equipment, especially in mixed practice
  • We probably weren’t in the human hospital at the initial outbreak

Tall Jazz DP X DC where the batfam is all at a fast food place and so is team Phantom but Jason is standing in front of the only working self checkout kiosk and jazz picks him up by the waist and puts him to the side like an inconveniently placed cat.

The entire batfamily saw it happen and Jason's just blushing like fucking crazy bc tall woman???? Red hair???? STRONG????

Avatar

Jazz thought that was her brother. She messes with him like that all the time.

A combination of being both very tired and the similar cats eye light reflection off the self checkout kiosk screen and the hair made her assume it was Danny.

When she realized it wasnt, she became absolutely mortified.

Luckily for her, Jason isn't thinking about that too hard. He's too busy blue screening.

Here's that dp fic that I promised. Sorta. I don't do a DC crossover for everything, ok? It just looks like it because it's all I post sometimes.

That’s my kid

DPxDC

Danny was a grown ass man and if he wanted to adopt a feral homeless child then he will.

Being a king was hard work with a lot of jobs and responsibilities. Apparently one of those responsibilities was keeping in contact with the champion of magic. Pariah dark kinda failed that but there hasn’t been a champion for hundreds of years. When Danny went to the Rock of Eternity to meet the newest champion he wasn’t expecting a 12 year old homeless child. Obviously he had to take care of him. Billy was just a kid, he shouldn’t have to deal with all the bullshit of being a hero. But Danny couldn’t just forbid him from doing the hero gig, no that would be hypocritical. The best he could do was offer a warm place to sleep and some food for the kid. And maybe some actual combat training.

Danny was cooking dinner, well more like burning dinner, when he got a phone call from Billy. It was unusual because Billy was supposed to be in a justice league meeting.

“Hey kiddo what’s up?”

“They know!”

“What?”

“The league knows I’m a kid!”

“Okay well how did they react?”

“I don’t know I ran away when they confronted me.”

“…I’ll be there in five.”

And now Danny has to yell at some heroes because that’s what dads do.

They defend their kid.

Danny’s Phantom form still looks 14 for this AU because it’s so much funnier if he goes to tell off the League as 6’9 buff ass Danny Fenton

Someone tries to start shit and he pops down to twink ass Danny Phantom who hasn’t visibly aged since he died solely because it’s funny to me

Flash: THERE’S TWO OF ‘EM

Something up in the sky. My heart drops like a first stage rocket. There’s a soul up there, and it’s not a human one.

I ping him for an ID, but get no response. He’s not openly wearing his name, his model number, or his Princess’ identity, but he radiates a half-coherent aura of rage and threat and disorientation that I know far, far too well.

There’s a feral dragon above our building.
