Soo I'm giving this a shot.
No worries if you can't donate, just an rb would be really cool and I'd super appreciate it!
When people go underwater in movies, i like to hold my breath to see if i would have survived in that situation.

me, an hour ago: "fuck, the stove is on! what do we do?" [immediately does all the wrong things]
PSA: What NOT to do when you smell gas
In this situation, we got home to a smell of gas throughout the house and discovered our gas stove was on without a flame. it was only a tiny stream, and everything turned out fine, but here's a brief list of everything we did wrong:
NOTE: this is for if you smell significant amounts of gas, not a blanket list for all possible gas situations. (If you aren't aware, the methane**/natural gas used in houses smells vaguely like sulfer, or rotten eggs - this is an additive, since it has no natural smell. It's a very recognizable smell, once you've smelled it once. It's not the same smell as gasoline.)
1. If your stove has an electrical/spark ignition, do NOT turn it off.
Spark ignitions often spark when turning on *and* off. Spark + Gas = Boom. Boom is bad. Avoid boom.
Instead, turn off the gas at the source, i.e. the physical valve at the meter. There may be a smaller valve near the stove. If you don't know where the shutoff is, the fire department will find it.
2. Do NOT turn on (or off) vents or fans.
In fact, don't flip any electrical switches - that includes lights, plugging in or unplugging appliances, etc. These cause sparks. Spark + Gas = Boom.
Also, don't start your car. obviously.
3. Do NOT open windows
counterintuitive, I know. This is mostly because you want to prioritize your exit, but it's also to keep the fumes from spreading outside, where you should be waiting for the ~professionals~ to come handle it.
4. DO take all people and pets outside.
Do this very first!! (one thing we actually did right - go us!)
This is obviously because you don't want to go boom, but you also don't want to suffocate. Gas is poison!
NOTE: the gas from your stove is probably methane (natural gas); carbon monoxide is what you get when methane burns, which is why your kitchen needs to be well-ventilated and the stove shouldn't be left burning for long periods of time, but the natural gas itself is *also* potentially deadly. Carbon monoxide detectors dont detect natural gas, so that's what the odorous additive is for.
Inhaling natural gas causes nausea, headaches, dizziness, and makes you just generally woozy, and eventually causes you to lose consciousness and potentially suffocate, just like carbon monoxide does. We don't want that.
5. DO call the fire department/emergency line
They'll check for other leaks, shut gas off if needed, then test for air quality and eventually clear your house for reentry. It takes like 1-2 hours for the gas to dissipate, generally.
Yay, you survived! Congrats!!
NOTE: if you find the stove has been left on with a flame, or it's on with no flame but you don't smell gas, then you should be safe to just open windows and turn on vents and fans to air it out.
idk, this was actually pretty scary, especially when we realized how much of our immediate response was wrong and could have turned a dangerous situation into a real disaster.
tl;dr: If you smell gas when you shouldn't be smelling gas, just get all the people and animals outside, shut off the gas line, and call the fire department or gas company. don't fuck around with gas. you're not overreacting, you're taking the proper safety measures.
**CORRECTED FROM ORIGINAL VERSION. Original said propane, but it's very much not propane, it's methane. too much Hank Hill on the brain, clearly.

Yes to all of this! Additionally, if you had the misfortune to be living in a shitty rental house in **redacted**, you might just evacuate the house with your roommates, only to have the gas company guy come back out and say, with haunted eyes: “did you know that raw sewage is being pumped into your basement.”
And we also DID have a gas leak.
As someone whose house almost exploded last year because of a leak in the line leading into my house, please pay attention to the above. This is very good information.

wow this is too intimate to share with my close friends or family let me put this on my tumblr blog for hundreds of strangers to see
The wise man, when caught naked in public, covers not his junk but his face.
I genuinely hope American media sucks for a while! I hope the big companies keep trying to churn out shit and that it’s all embarrassing garbage! I want it to be extremely apparent to everyone how important the writers and actors are to create good media and that they deserve to be compensated appropriately!!!
CGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it's part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions
if CGI animators unionized, it would kill the MCU. straight up. the the entire business model is built on exploiting CGI animators
I wanted to draw Wally with Opposite Wally! :)
(Opposite AU belongs to @/henneysilly on TikTok)
my little brother got a girlfriend recently and the two of them have been making their discord icons matching anime couples, so my other brother, his twin, keeps changing his icon to a third wheel character to annoy them
this is an old post but i have an update: the second brother started voice calling and playing games with a girl he likes, and every time the first brother walks into their room while hes talking to her he makes sure to hype him up, but in absurdly hyperbolized ways like “broo i just saw you on the news congrats on saving the bus full of orphans from crashing into the baby panda hospital. also zendaya called and asked if you wanted to go out with her and billie eilish but obviously you wont because youre so loyal. and joe biden came by personally and said he wanted to give you an award for most handsome man alive but i told him to just put it with the others”
You used the letter a 58 times!!
And 710 letters, so the letter a is about 8.17%
The letter a is on average used about 8.2% of the time, which means you sadly used it slightly less than average :(
Wait I can salvage this
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
the interesting thing to me about barbie (2023) is that while it is very pink and girly and Feminine with a capital F it doesn’t seem to be an indictment of the aesthetic as either Good or Bad…like i remember seeing posts on here about how barbie was going to make being a “girly girl” (read -> tiktok tradwife divine feminine bs) cool again, and like collectively bring down advanced gender-neutral type feminism ideas, but the pinkness and sparkles of barbie do not speak to Being a Woman circa 1950s USAmerican gender roles but to the idea of individuality and freedom of expression. like little girls as they grow up are so often taught that they’re not gonna be taken seriously unless they force themselves to look and act Serious. the pink is a metaphor for being bold the sparkles are a metaphor for being brave!!! for having the confidence to be the person You Want To Be and i think that’s really beautiful

your art is good. i love how you draw each character, its so pleasing. your art style makes jervis into more of a baby girl than i can imagine.
yippie!!!
Cue me, trying to be normal when taking a compliment challenge (IMPOSSIBLE). Jokes aside, thank you very much! I'm not a person who's good with words, hell, maybe I'm repeating them but!!! I'm so glad people enjoy my content esp when I'm having a very good time just indulging in my little whims! Believe it or not I HAVE been looking at the tags on my art and losing MY fucking mind seeing half ya'lls response so positively. I want to spread my crazy pills and huck them at the nearest folk around.
speaking of babygirl--
The barbie movie having her 'fly down her roof' is so cute cause when you're a kid playing with them on roof of her building or whatever she doesn't use the stairs??, she does jumps off the roof. Sometimes does a flip
