Out of student loans and treehouse homes we all would take the latter

i will die defending the idea that humans are not inherently evil and that its corrupt governments/corporations/establishments in society that are evil, not humanity as a whole. our species survival has always hinged on our ability to care about each other and to help one another, the violence of capitalism is not natural and humans are a hugely social species we NEED to make connections to keep living!!!! we need to make connections and interact with other people in order to thrive and touch starvation is an example of what happens when were denied these interactions. ancient humans took care of their disabled, elderly, and sick people because they cared about them. we have always cared and we always will and we need to keep nuturing that loving and caring nature that is within the whole human race

To the worried person in the comments: 

No, a hummingbird’s heart will not stop if it stops moving. You’re possibly thinking of Spoink, which is a Pokemon that supposedly powers its heart by bouncing, and as such can’t stop moving. Hummingbirds don’t sit often because they’re busy looking for food, but they can and do sit. The females sit on eggs in nests, after all, and they do have to sleep.

Fun fact: the leg muscles of a hummingbird are so stripped down to save on weight that they cannot walk. They can step sideways along a branch or other perch, but they cannot go forward without taking flight.

However they absolutely do stop moving. In fact, hummingbirds hibernate! Overnight. Instead of sleeping. Because if they tried to sleep like a normal animal their hyperactive metabolism would mean that they starve to death before breakfast.

Unrelated fun fact: the primary Aztec god of war would take on the form of a hummingbird, and the souls of the bravest warriors were said to turn into hummingbirds in order to join him after death, presumably because every hummingbird is approximately four grams of pure concentrated asskicking which fears no man nor beast and will gladly throw down with somebody seventeen thousand times their size if offended.

this is a really cool post and i love seeing such a small bird but reading “No, a hummingbird’s heart will not stop if it stops moving. You’re possibly thinking of Spoink” killed me

might i add this little piece as well:

from j.m. coetzee’s age of iron

alright folks

new question: which STEM field dresses the worst?

one hand, you’ve got geologists out there dressin’ like Indiana Jones’s shabby shorts-and-cargo pants cousin

very bold ‘I lick rocks’ statement

on the other hand I haven’t seen a computer science major wear anything other than outfits that scream ‘I smoke weed’ to ‘disappearing into a hoodie’ light

a combination of the two is par the course

As someone in STEM, i can attest that my fashion sense is becoming significantly more atrocious

dream cottage🦆

  •  a little house nestled in the woods
  • a cold, quick stream running through the backyard 
  • a backyard garden full of wildflowers
  • a herb garden 
  • a fruit and vegetable garden-tomatoes, peas, peppers, blackberries, raspberries
  • peach and pear trees
  • a small pond that is home to a duck family
  • a chicken coop and room for them to roam
  • a rabbit hutch and a play area for them
  • a dock out back overlooking the water
  • a small boat
  • a white, wooden kitchen with big windows opening up onto the yard, herbs drying
  • a living room with whitewashed walls, whitewashed floors, a wood stove,
  • a pantry full of homemade jams, jellies, preserved fruit and other things
  • hundreds of books, and many soft couches and chairs
  • fireplaces in every room
  • a bedroom full of light, nature from every window angle, simple wooden furniture and flowers everywhere
  • bookshelves that push in to reveal a secret room

frankly? ban all plastics. require all public buildings to be solar powered. public community gardens in every neighborhood. ban all pesticides. ban fossil fuels. put wind turbines on every sky scraper. gardens on every rooftop. tax cars and fund public transportation. build bike lanes across every city. train/railroad infrastructure across the country (tear down highways). every state mandated to have a certain percentage of land be a wildlife preserve. local/organic farms get huge tax breaks. raise the minimum wage. aquaponics farms in every city. every family has chickens in their backyard. community composting. jeff bezos’s body for fertilizer. i have a clear idea of what i want the world to look like and i want it now. hire me

“I was in the library  I heard your name in my ear  My friends blame ghosts  When I went outside  The sky was turning black I saw you in the library  Even though you’re two states away  My friends blame ghosts  When I went outside  It was just beginning to rain Driving home I wondered  When you go to sleep do you dream of me?”

Whenever I listen to Marina and the Diamonds I feel raw primal homosexuality take over every cell in my body and thrust me into a universe where straight people don’t exist and never have
