hi i do not like how some of you people have been using the term ‘egg’ lately. i also hate how you talk to gnc people. thank you.

so ‘egg’ refers to a trans person who has not yet realized they are trans and are in denial. usually one refers to themself in this context. i dont see this happening much to gnc women because its much normaler for a woman to be butch than for a man to be femme. but like.

if you know a man who is more femme. they may very well be a trans woman. and that is for them to figure out on their own. but yall see any man who isnt masc in the slightest bit and go ‘this must be a closeted trans woman’ no. shut up. being a trans woman is more than being a feminine male person. not only do i think youre not normal abt gnc men but i also think you are not normal about trans women.

its incredibly rude to call someone an egg for being gnc. what if we all minded our own business.

WHAT. WHAT THE HELL. the whole point of the trans movement is “only you can know who you are and no one elses perception dictates that” but some of yall went ‘only others can tell you what your gender is but now we’re trans inclusive <3”

on my sideblog i saw someone reblog my post about how we should be nicer to butch trans women a cis woman said in the tags “dont egg me but i want to explore masculinity like this” and like. yeah i think we stopped being normal about respecting trans people and instead “i know your gender based on your vibes” and idk. its a weird and niche phenomena but i think its weird and bad.

also don't do this to nonbinary people who were amab (or any nonbinary person). ik this post is mostly about gnc cis people but this kind of thinking also makes people presume that nonbinary people must be Binary Trans in Training (or Cis But Weird) with the end goal of "well you must REALLY be binary." this happens to all nonbinary people but people who were amab are especially erased

sometimes I wonder how we all survive and then I look at my best friends and I go “oh, I survive because I don’t want to leave you yet” and it makes sense. life is so hard a lot of the time, but I want one more bowl of pasta with you.

This is trippy

hey science side of tumblr, if you’re not on your union mandated lunch break, a question for you

when these resin casts are made and the top is sorta like, opaque (if that’s the right word) how come when the liquid resin is poured on top and then sets, that it becomes perfectly clear

Because of light refraction! Basically when you sand Resin casts (or in this case, from sanding the pinecones down) you wind up with an absolute fuckton of tiny scratches in the surface, and light that hits it bounces in all kinds of weird directions. But, since liquid resin can still bond with set resin, pouring a *very thin* layer of it over the top fills in the imperfections and makes the surface smooth like glass, so the light travels in a normal pattern again

thanks nerd >:3c

god science is so cool

reminder for the twitter, reddit and tiktok migrants: please do not censor words here. if you censor them, people’s blacklists and mute functions wont work, especially for important content warnings (this goes for twitter as well altho that function is breaking over there). spell out the whole word in the post and the tags. do not use euphemism words like unalive. the algorithm here does not work that way (there is an algorithm. not everyone uses it, everyone uses the following tab).

the only time you should censor words is when you do NOT want them to show up in the tag, like if you’re saying something unkind about a ship you should not tag it or mention directly the ship name so it does not clog the tag, or if you’re mentioning a person or community who should not get attention or clout, or whose attention you do not want to attract, then censor it (the way one might on twitter to avoid term searching)

The kind of thing a good coder wouldn't mind seeing on their tombstone:

DEGRADED GRACEFULLY

Finally, a truly useful flashlight design!  Because even just some light from one or two functional batteries is better than having not enough batteries to even close the circuit!  Plus, if the contacts corrode at one spot and you don’t have the time & means to clean it, you can still get light out of the thing!

My favourite thing about the latest Twitter meltdown is all the artists reanimating their dead Tumblr accounts today and immediately being greeted with hundreds of notes because even a Tumblr account they literally have not posted to in 3–5 years has more active and engaged followers than the Twitter account that they've been updating daily.

today in social media...

hate when couples say ‘we’re pregnant!!!’ both of you? prove it

his and hers matching pregancies

THIS ISNT ABT ‘cis’ mpreg ITS ABT TRANS MEN BE QUIET

My friend who has a gyno dad tells the best story about a couple (cis woman-trans man) who both tried in vitro fertilization and the guy got pregnant, and they were talking about it in the lobby when a cishet couple started getting weird abt it and said sth about it being "unnatural". Her dad heard and was like, "UNNATURAL? EVERYTHING WE DO HERE IS UNNATURAL, God didn't wanna give you guys a kid as much as he didn't want to give one to this couple! And you all came to me for the same thing! WE ONLY DO UNNATURAL!!! IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT YOU CAN LEAVE!" and to this day I've never respected a doctor more.

Well, well, well look who came running back

Me: my god.. i did it.. i killed him..!

Angel on my shoulder: we're extremely fortunate. You shot him in the side of the head and you're wearing gloves. Place the gun in his hand and set the house ablaze. Officer Goger's tragic suicide will be the perfect cover story

Devil on my shoulder: Goger was always eating stuffing and spelt wheat and steel cut oats. Bet he'd taste reeeeal good on a spit with an apple in his mouth. Come on, i've seen the way you've looked at him..

My tulpa, a 6'9" DD smokeshow hottie PS1 graphics anthro leopard girl in a lab coat: you must put a baby in me Your Highness, quickly!

Please take this in the most encouraging and constructive way possible: replace the batteries in the CO2 detectors in your home

I love Westley. He spent years building up an immunity to Iocane Powder, a deadly poison, but only that poison, a skill which is only useful in very specific circumstances

Like bestie, there are not that many situations where an Iocane immunity is useful

Like, how often does he get into a battle of wits where Iocane is used, enough so that it'd be useful to develop an immunity. Love him

Being raised by areligious jews with 0 exposure to christianity outside pop culture is so fun. One time I asked my ex-catholic friend why a picture of jesus had a bristle crown and she looked at me like I was insane. One time I heard someone mention the "lance of longinus" and responded, word for word, "Like from Evangelion?" One time during a history lesson my professor described an important monk and scholar as "Dominican" and I spent the rest of class super confused and hung up on it because I was very sure that the Dominican Republic didn't meaningfully exist as an entity back then, maybe she meant he was a native Taino or something but that's a weird way to say that and I'm pretty sure this was pre- European contact? Really fucks people up when they realize I genuinely have no idea.

This but it's my partner taking an art history class in college and the professor looking at them like they grew a second head when they answered "What came out of Jesus' wound when he was stabbed on the cross" with "...Blood?"

Additions that prove my point by mystifying me because what on earth would come out of a nail wound besides blood. Are you telling me it was something besides blood. What was jesus full of that wasn't blood. You guys are scaring me

Apparently it was water?? I guess he was also stabbed on top of being crucified (which feels like overkill imo) and water came out, which was a huge deal in medieval symbolism and also to my medieval poetry professor, who was genuinely shocked and upset that I didn’t know. This man fully docked me points because I, a whole ass Jew, hadn’t somehow heard about the secret waterballoon Jesus lore that I guess everyone is supposed to like… intuit

On the plus side, it does lead to some absolutely wild medieval Jesus art of angels tapping him like a fucking keg

As someone raised totally non religious , I have. No idea what any of this means

I was raised Catholic and never heard that anything besides blood came out of his wounds

Cary Elwes is just Orlando Bloom but with more flavor

Cary Elwes could do Lord of the Rings but Orlando Bloom couldn't do Princess Bride
