This pride month y’all have got to offset your doomposting with some gay fun you’ve had. And if you haven’t had any gay fun then you need to stop doomposting and work on that. I know we’re descending into fascism and there’s always kink at pride discourse and threats of violence and actual violence and hollow corporate allyship. But I only have so much room for that in my brain. I want to hear about the party you went to or the guy you met at the bar or the girl who strapped you within an inch of your life or hell the new clothes you bought. I as a gay person on the gay people website should NOT have to dread the gay month

Indonesian fiber artist Mulyana has taken over the Fisher Museum of Art with colorful, hand-knitted and crocheted aquatic life. 

With the duality of life and death as a recurring theme, Mulyana crafts a tactile, mystical world in which fish, whales, and coral reefs coexist with sea monsters and slow states of decay. 

Read Renée Reizman’s review of Mulyana: Modular Utopia.

this is literally correct. im so mad that i cant find it right now, maybe i will later, but a few months ago i read such a funny paper, it was a report on a survey of k-tape use by sports medicine people and physical therapists, and 70% of them reported that they knew/had observed that k-tape does absolutely nothing, but that athletes are so superstitious that the PTs would use the tape anyway because it improved performance via placebo. the majority of studies on k-tape are either inconclusive or a very definite "this does absolutely nothing".

i could see it maybe being useful specifically for proprioception due to pull sensation, and possibly in EDS patients where skin elasticity had something to do with muscle/joint stability and taping the surface provided more resistance. otherwise its less relevant to injury than prehistoric medical tatooing, at least the latter would involve microinjury with a needle, which we do have evidence to support lol

new heights of extraversion - was at an airport, saw some guys repairing these friction lines, went up to them and asked questions

the lines turn out to be called 'grip strip' and they are using a 'putty knife' and a 'margin trowel' to apply it. The mixture will dry in 15m. Before it dries they also have to sprinkle sand on top and press in with the knife/trowel.

I was writing this down in a notebook, and they asked me what for, and I told them I'm sick of not knowing the words for things. Sometimes it feels like I don't know the words for anything! I've read so many words without ever mapping them to the physical things they corresponded to.

I'm going through the corridor that's outside of the airport building and leads into the airplane, I don't know what it's called either (edit: just asked the flight attendant, it's called a jet bridge)

There's yellow and black angled striped tape on the sides of the floor of the jet bridge, and I don't know why THAT'S there or what it's called. (edit: kind online people have informed me this is "hazard tape" / "hazard stripes" / "safety tape", and the general class is called "barricade tape".)

Men who love women in a queer way and women who love men in a queer way are valid as fuck.

If you define your attraction as queer, it’s queer. If you don’t define it as straight, then it’s not. If you consider it both, than it’s both, and if you consider it neither, than it’s neither. Fuck anyone who says otherwise.
