yall when i cut off my titties then i will be unstoppable
taking off the weighted training tiddys like
This post has been getting a lot of notes and I just wanna say that this addition has literally been a game changer. I haven’t been the same since I started thinking about my breasts as ‘weight training tiddys’ I feel like an anime protagonist training to save the world. I feel like Goku. This has been incredible
Why is amazon treating its employees like teachers treat students
Because infantilizing your underpaid workers is the best strategy to instill feelings of inferiority and fear, while also encouraging them to want to please middle managers for better treatment while not actually improving their situation at all. Its very effective.
Everybody needs to take a good, hard look at the history of West Virginia, so they can understand just how badly companies will sink their claws into your life, and how to stop them from doing it again.
We are really gonna replay the 1920s all over again
Druid: I cast Pass Without Trace, everyone is still hidden, right?
Wizard: No I broke stealth to cast Fireball. But I burnt the guards to a crisp in one hit, so they can’t see me, so it’s kinda like I’m still hidden.
The most underutilised point in the ATLA timeline is the few days or whatever that passed after Boiling Rock but before Southern Raiders where Sokka and Zuko had just become best friends hanging out in the Western Air Temple
For your consideration:
isnt that kid a drug addict now?
I can’t even fully express my love for Macaulay Culkin. I loved his recent interviews with Jimmy Fallon and with Ellen (in one of them he’s wearing red nail polish and I just love that about him too), I love his website bunnyears.com, I especially love him in Party Monster and in Saved, I love that he was in a Velvet Underground cover band called Pizza Underground that changed all the lyrics to be about pizza, and I love how weird and awkward he is.
He also shows up in Redlettermedia vids and he’s always fun in them
Tabloids said Culkin had a $6,000 a day heroin addiction, Culkin has been very vocal about denying that he was ever addicted to heroin
If you don’t know about Macaulay Culkin’s childhood other than “he was the richest child actor of his time” please take a minute to read this
When Home Alone was at the height of its fame I saw him on a talk show saying he slept on the couch at home. His dad, who’d insisted on being on the panel with him, laughed it off as “we’d fallen on hard times but we’ll be moving to a bigger place soon.” Macaulay later said “He wanted me to know and my brother to know that he was in charge and that if he didn’t want us to sleep on a bed, we weren’t going to sleep on a bed.”
His father, Kit, was also a child actor but never made it very far. He insisted on being Macaulay’s manager and simultaneously hated him for being talented and pressured him to be famous so he could get rich
Macaulay has said he has scars from his father’s physical abuse
All the kids were forced into acting but Macaulay and Keiran were the most successful. Thier father would book them for acting work without discussing it with them, and after long days on set they’d have to sit with their father for hours planning for the next day’s work. They rarely had any free time
When his parents filed for divorce the custody battle focused mainly on who would get to be the kids’ manager because that person got 15% of their earnings. It’s unknown if his mother’s motives were financial or trying to keep their father from having a position of power over them, but his father’s motives were definitely financial
Macaulay hasn’t spoken to his father in 25 years and doesn’t know if he ever will. In response, his father told reporters “I no longer consider him my son”
All the stuff about Macaulay being a has-been who can’t find work is untrue. He’s still persued for acting parts but is very selective about which projects he gets involved in. He’s turned down roles that went on to make millions, including a lead in The Big Bang Theory. He has no regrets about passing on those roles and says his happiness is worth more to him
I fully support Macaulay Culkin being a goofy guy who does the work he wants to do and uses what’s left of his childhood earnings to relax and enjoy life
Magnets: I want to commit diamagnetic
how did I never once think to use tape fuck
one time as a kid I forcefully shoved two magnets together, and these were the strong magnets my dad used in his shop to pick-up missing little metal bits, and I held them really tightly in the palm of my hand, went up to this one kid who legit said things like “I think black cats are bad, they should be drowned” and drew crosses on the notebooks of kids if she found out they didn’t go to church, I told her “Hey. I’m a witch. If you don’t stop trying to hurt animals and picking on kids, I’ll use my magic to throw you into the sky”, and when she dared to doubt my powers I told her that I had two “rocks” in my hand that I could send across the playground, then I opened my hand the the magnets shot off in two different directions (we were over in a spot that was empty, so no other kids were around, nobody got hurt), one of them stuck to a drainpipe and the other stuck to a fence. This kid SCREAMED, and ran to the office, and I guess had her mom pick her up from school, and then she wasn’t there for a couple of days, finally her mom called my house and claimed I had “traumatized her daughter by performing a terrifying magic trick”, and when my parents asked what I did I just said “I showed her a magnet and she flipped out. She’s not gonna be happy when she finds out about gravity, either”. eventually this kid came back to school and always made a point to come up to me and say “Hey, my mom told me not to talk to you!”, and would just be like “Good job, you already screwed that up”
Holy shit
anyone who wants to learn to be a doctor should be accepted into medical school and allowed to study as long as they need until they are fit to graduate. we need more doctors.
people are dying. the artificial medical school caps where folks with goddam 4.0s from great fucking schools aren’t even allowed to go to medical school are part of the problem.
This practice of artificially deflating the number of medical students doesn’t produce better doctors, they’re only producing less doctors.
how are we gonna fund unlimited medical school for anyone who’s interested?
By taking the money from you, and only you. Get to work.
men and nonbinary people who have breasts are totally normal and cool actually
also this is true regardless of whether they bind or plan to have top surgery
I know you’re aiming for trans and nb people rn, but this would also probably help cis men with gynecomastia too :D
This is one of the rare occasions when “cis men too!” is a good addition, and you’re so right! That did occur to me when I made this post and I’m glad you pointed it out
Imagine if someone handed you a box full of all the items you have lost throughout your life
“Oh wow my childhood innocence! Thank you for finding this,”
“my will to live! i haven’t seen this in 15 years!”
“I knew I lost that potential somewhere!”
“Mental stability, my old friend!”
This occurred as we were discussing combat options out of character. Paladin: “But your personality trait is that you’re a thrill-seeker!” Rogue: “I don’t think hiding exactly qualifies as a skill.” Paladin: “Sure it is!” (Totally not in a Rick-and-Morty voice) “Oh boy, here I go hiding again!” Cue laughter from the rest of the party.
have i ever told y’all about the greatest moment of my academic career
i was a freshman in college and i had this history teacher who was ~edgy~ and his hotness level on ratemyprofessor was off the charts and he was the first teacher i ever heard use the word “fuck.” anyway he would do this thing every so often where we’d have a “quiz” and the first two questions were always really easy and the last one was hard - they were all similar questions, and the point was to show what you learn about history and what you don’t.
so one day he’s like okay kids time for a quiz and the first question was who killed abraham lincoln. the second question was who killed JFK. third question was who killed william mckinley.
we all take a few minutes and write down our answers, and then the teacher asks the questions again so we can shout out the answers. everybody answered the first two with really no problem.
now, keep in mind that this class was at 9 a.m. and i was exhausted All The Time during my freshman year of college so i sat in the back in my sweats and never said a word and the teacher definitely had no clue who i was.
so you can imagine his surprise when he asked the class who shot william mckinley and without missing a beat i said, “czolgosz,” pronounced correctly and everything.
my teacher froze and in a very stern voice asked, “what was that? what did someone just say?”
i repeated: czolgosz.
my teacher: “who said that?”
i raised my hand, and my super cool history teacher glared at me. he then asked me how the hell i knew the answer. he said that in the TWENTY YEARS he’d been teaching this stupid class, nobody, not A SINGLE PERSON, had ever known the answer to that question.
i then had to quietly explain to a room full of people that there’s a musical called assassins and there’s a song about czolgosz shooting william mckinley at the great pan american exposition in buffaloooooooo (in buffaloooooooo)
The arts are important.
I shocked a teacher once because I could recite the preamble to the US Constitution (got bonus points to), She asked why I’d taken it upon myself to memorize it. I had to explain it was in a School House Rock song….
I shocked church with my ‘math skills’ when they were asking how many seconds in a minute, minutes in an hour, hours in a day, days in a year, now how about minutes in a year - and I call out five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes without pausing to think, cos Rent
Once aced a religion class pop quiz that asked me to list all of Jacob’s sons since they’re the names of the 12 tribes of Israel. The one and only time I’ve been thankful for Andrew Lloyd Webber. I even got points for getting the birth order correct.
My little brother got extra points in a social studies class once for knowing “O Canada” in its entirely (we’re American and grew up in Maryland, for context) because my older sister went to undergrad in Maine and her acapella group learned the Canadian National Anthem could sing it whenever the hockey teams played Canadian teams.
Who says the arts don’t have real world benefits?
When i was in high school, my history teacher asked what historic technology caused the biggest alteration in military tactics. I answered stirrups, and explained that the ability to brace against the horse to use a weapon and the better maneuverability vs a chariot created the entire concept of cavalry, which led to modern tactics, etc. The teacher said I was the first student to ever give that answer and that I was basically correct, and then asked where I had found that out. I then had to explain I had read it in a Star Trek novel.
My APUS teacher in HS made a deal with all his students: if you get an A on the first test of the year, your lowest test for the year gets dropped. He said he almost never had students get A’s on the first test.
I was one of 3 kids in APUS my year to get an A on our first exam (all three were in my class because we were NERDS). When the test scores came in he called the tree of us up to his desk and said he’d never had THREE kids in the same class make A’s on the test and that either we were REALLY smart or REALLY good at cheating (we sat in 3 of the corners of the room so we weren’t copying off eachother or anything).
I don’t think I ever told him that I got an A on the first 2 tests because one of my favorite cartoons when I was a kid was Liberty’s Kids and I had the series on DVD and literally watched it to study for the test.
You know the thing about the songs part of this is that humans have been using poetry and songs to remember large numbers and historical facts since the dawn of time, and I honestly think it’s insane that we don’t value that as a culture anymore to the degree that teachers are surprised by it
Imagine if you will -
It’s Temple tradition to take your padawan on a Tour of other temples and to see other Force Sensitive traditions, to show the superiority of the Jedi and to keep ties open
So, Obi Wan leaps at the chance to take Anakin on the Tour, get him away from judgey Jedi and the creepy Chancellor, and the first place they go is the Green Temple on Corellia and eventually
They get to Jedha
Obi Wan vs Chirrut
sass
martial arts
Anakin is entranced. The kyber crystals keep singing to him. The other kids aren’t assholes, Baze keeps calling him ‘brother’ and picking him up to show him stuff
Obi Wan is having fun getting his ass handed to him and not having to worry constantly about Anakin because Anakin’s making friends.
Obi Wan’s making friends.
So when Obi Wan finds out the Council is thinking of having a Jedi in a standing position at the Temple to ensure good relations and access to kyber crystals, he applies
And since he’s already there and settling in and the Jedha monks seem eager to have him around, they let him because Anakin is frankly a bit of a headache, with all the mystical Chosen One nonsense and the Chancellor asking for play dates
Oh goddamn it, I want to read this so badly!!! Not only because the character interaction would be adorable but because of how badly this screws with Palpatine’s plans.
Not only is Anakin far away from his meddling but he is making friends! He’s learning other force traditions that maybe make a little more sense to a kid from the Outer Rim than this from the Temple! And Obi-Wan isn’t constantly looking over his shoulder for people criticizing his teaching methods so he’s a little more relaxed about things!
Which means that when they do get sent on occasional field missions in nearby systems they begin to get a bit of a reputation. Mainly for being the type of Jedi who understand life outside the Core, but also for the way their unorthodox methods still seem to bring about the most unlikely yet beneficial outcomes. The council is beginning to dread the thought of then coming back to Coruscant.
Not that Anakin cares. Living on Jedha with his Master and his friends and occasionally fighting injustice? This is the dream!!! 😉
Baze, Chirrut, and Obi-Wan would make an unholy trinity of faith, pragmatism, and “hold this while I go punch that guy/gundark/sith.” Would happily read this! (Role modeling empathy for Anakin would be, by itself, a great start.)
Nothing that Anakin does is Too Weird, nothing he does truly freaks anyone out, he’s the strongest Force sensitive on record and he lives in a Temple with the Journal of the Whills, which is a Mysterious Force Artifact
it might be sentient? they just don’t know
they either don’t care or don’t think about it too hard, so whatever Anakin gets up to, it’s all cool
The delight, the possibility in this, the FREEDOM–someone write this so I can cry over it, please.
I would read so many variations of this
he is turning the tiles brown. he needs to be contained
fools. this was a white goat, you can see the white markings on him. he’s been soaking up the brown and he’s only got one square left. let him finish his work
HE’S STEALING THE BROWN
NB 👏 Does 👏 Not 👏 Mean 👏 Woman 👏 Lite
it’s one of the most insidious forms of transphobia

This whole thing is getting out of hand.
If someone is non-binary it means they are non-binary. Their assigned gender at birth does not define whether or not their nb identity is valid.
NON-BINARY AMABs ARE FUCKING VALID AND I WILL DIE BELIEVING IT
Titans: valiant knights and warriors capable of great strength and protecting their allies
Warlocks: masterfully manipulate energies making them excellent healers and disruptors
Hunters: *cotton eye joe playing loudly over gunshots*
how about your favorite akatsuki member? i dont think you posted about which one you like most
it will ALWAYS be hidan ♥
I made a watercolor sketchbook in landscape to force myself to work in a different layout and did this first painting on the wrong side of the paper :’))))
