Horrible fact of the day: Chevron just released a new boat fuel that WILL give you cancer.
Not "might", not "could", WILL. It has a cancer ratio of 1:1, as in, in a group of 10 people, ALL 10 would contract CANCER.
The EPA's safety limit is 1:1,000,000 as in 1 in a million people get cancer.
The EPA approved it anyways. I am not joking. The EPA approved a boat fuel that has a near 100% chance of giving someone cancer. It has such a good chance of giving someone cancer that if you DIDN'T get cancer YOU WOULD BE AN OUTLIER.
Fuck the oil industries.

hate bluetooth headphones that talk. you are a machine you may NOT speak to me
when headphones beep sadly because their battery is low: oh you poor thing :( let me plug you in :(
when headphones say "battery low" in a human voice: Who Are You Stop Interrupting My Music
Bird identification is so fucked up in a really fun way you can’t understand until you get into it. For example, there is a type of goose called the cackling goose that looks exactly like a Canada goose except smaller and “cuter”. The cackling goose is way, way, more rare in most places than its relatively common cousin, so it’s on tons of birders life lists. Everyone wants to see a cackling (look in any bird ID group to see lots of hopeful people posting petite Canada geese). The two species regularly commingle, so sometimes a flock of those common parking lot birds will have the equivalent of a Pokémon shiny just hanging out in the middle of them.
How ridiculous and fun is that? I can never look at a big group of Canada geese without scrutinizing their ranks for an adorable little extremely rare cutie pie cackling goose. It reminds me a bit of mushroom harvesting minus the risk of death if you get it wrong
damn they really are just cuter.
personally, i think we should stop having stupid corset discourse on this website and talk more about fashion from the ancient minoan civilization
they had it all figure out
i learned that there's a Japanese beetle that when eaten by a frog will haul ass through its digestive system and escape out the back end unscathed (x)
you eat me and i perfectly dodge all of your digestive enzymes and stomach acid and i sprint out your asshole fully intact
Amazing levels of reading comprehension there "this sucks because we're always right but no one listens to us" "have you tried being wrong?"
we all need to start appreciating peridot stevenuniverse more for what she did for us. it would be easier to say what she DIDN'T do honestly. she's autistic. she's silly. she's sad and little. she's an overworked i. t. guy. she's a saturday morning cartoon villain. she's aroace. she's gay. she yelled at her boss and immediately had a mental breakdown. she's both a victim of and perpetuates the oppressive society she was raised in. she has to unlearn her conceptions of other people's worth and her own worth so she stops hurting other people and hurting herself. she achieves this in part through robot fights. she's hyperfixated on a canadian soap opera. she draws shipping charts. she's nonbinary. she can never go home again. she doesn't want to go home again. she went from believing literally anything was a weapon that could be used to harm her to farming and making art and music with her best friend in a barn. she's like 3 feet tall. she has a twitter account where she talks in all caps constantly. she's green and her hair is a triangle literally what can't she do.
HOW AREN'T THERE MORE TUMBLR POSTS ABOUT THE GIANT AIRSHIP THE AIRLANDER 10 WHY DID I ONLY JUST FIND OUT ABOUT IT
IT LOOKS WORSE AT EVERY ANGLE
NO
Like.
I get that it looks like a giant posterior, and that is objectively funny.
But also hybrid airships are cool as hell, and a way better idea long-term for aerial mass transit than what we do now.
If I risk making an ass of myself to stick up for this thing, I don't give a toot. You can make it the butt of your jokes all you like, make every cheeky comment you want, but I'd bet my bottom dollar that the thing to vindicate it will be hindsight. In posterity, the idea behind this will seem brilliant upon further analysis.
But right now it's just a joke.
And that really bums me out.
generational difference between people who learnt the word kin on tiktok and think it is a fun way of saying u identify somewhat with a character VS people who learnt the word kin on tumblr where people would threaten each other about kin lists because they genuinely believed they were a manifested reincarnation of karkat homestuck
genuinely people would have tiered lists of kins, from it's okay to follow me if you kin this, to never interact w me if any of your mutuals are kin w this because this is literally me
people were kinblocking like it was the beaches of fucking normandy
"it's not queer fiction unless the queerness is explicitly declared in the text according to currently accepted terminology and in a way that meets the approval of the entire audience" I mean follow your heart I guess but I trust myself as a queer person to recognise queer themes
"but doesn't this risk giving the author undue credit for queer representation" I do not care about the author
someone tagged multiple drawings of mine ft fat characters as “tw body image” i am entitled to compensation and im stealing shit out of your house right now
idk man what people ask you to tag on this website is not sacred and you should. employ critical thinking. like if someones asking for a trigger warning for an entire category of human being thats a nut up or shut up issue for them
