center for native hawaiian advancement: https://www.memberplanet.com/campaign/cnhamembers/kakoomaui

please reblog and spread the word if you can't donate.

Just learning about this (!), and reblogging for visibility.

Also sending worried love to all my friends and all the people I don't know in Maui.

some time ago i introduced the phrase "food pact" to my friends as a shorthand for "i'll go make and eat food if you also make and eat food" and ever since then ive just started incorporating more pacts into my life. stay hydrated pact. stretch break pact. stop doomscrolling and go to bed pact. we need to bring this back in vogue more people should be making pacts imo

Lol I keep seeing screenshots of my posts popping up on sites like Reddit with people going like “Yeah… That ~happened~” like bruh I don’t know how to tell you this but sometimes life is exciting

Like, you try new things and take risks and talk to people and you’re surprised at what you find? Yeah you’re gonna end up playing beer pong at a clown’s house, yeah you’re gonna witness a crime, that’s why we’re all here

What I love most about Gandalf big naturals is how much it eases my chest dysphoria. I can sleep without a shirt on now because of Gandalf Big Naturals. Knowing that the artist made the original image while recovering from top surgery and said the image was like a final parting gift from their boobs makes me feel even better about the image's effect on me. Men with big naturals makes me feel much more good about my body than those old posts on here that were like "trans men! Some men have pecs!!! So don't feel dysphoric <3". It's much more meaningful to see a hairy, bearded man with a huge H cup rack not letting his tits get in the way of his masculinity.

Most of all, Gandalf Big Naturals helped me love my body the way it is instead of hating something that's a part of me. Of course I still want top surgery but the fact that I can live with my own big naturals until then without wanting to guillotine them off is really important.

It's Tuesday!! Y'all know what that means!

Random Animal!

You get: Moon Crab

the Lesbian and Asexual pride flags colour picked from the top image of a moon crab! :)

moon crab? more like enby crab (also colorpicked from the top image

the moon crab is a nonbinary asexual lesbian

Well @autisticbipedalcat, I do need ideas for superheroes and super villains, so...

Mooncrab is now a hero in my project. Also, she's ace and a lesbian. That part just kinda writes itself.

DO NOT SIGN ANY ANTIFA PETITIONS. There’s one on change[dot]org that was started by Richard Spencer that’s a honeypot to gather intel on antifa and their supporters. YOU WILL BE DOXXED. antifascism[dot]org is owned by fascists, most likely to grab IPs. r/antifa on Reddit is also run by fascists. Please copy & paste instead of sharing if you want to pass it on

With love and patience, I need folks to please set aside some time to get better at recognizing antisemitic dogwhistles.

I'm using the following as an example, but intentionally not singling out the person who put this on my dash, cause I'm talking about a broader issue, and I want everybody to self examine.

Okay. this ended up on my dash, a comment in a thread.

"noticing" is a dogwhistle for an antisemitic conspiracy theory.

let's look at the profile:

^ "queen of white." gonna say that's a pretty big red flag for white supremacy.

we haven't even started looking through the blog yet, this is just the post & blog title.

if you go looking on the blog, pretty quickly you find this user is also reblogging from other white supremacists

if you scroll for about ~2 minutes you start seeing her use extremely loaded incendiary and derogatory language about trans women

finally, if you search "white" you see blatant nazi posting.

if you spend a little time familiarizing yourself with antisemitic dogwhistles, you will save time because you won't need to look through blogs to check, you will see "noticing" in that context and you will already know this is a nazi.

antisemitism is often one of the easiest ways for fascists to get their messaging to spread widely because very few people take the time to learn these dogwhistles, and a lot of people respond to Jewish people patiently pointing them out over and over again with some level of disbelief/resentment/hostility.

it is to everyone's benefit, for everyone's collective safety, for you to familiarize yourself with antisemitic dogwhistles.

Not to make a serious post too much but remember how angry everyone rightly was about bread companies adding sesame because it's cheaper to poison people than clean your machinery?

Yeah well it's happening in other foods. I already posted about Kellogg's doing it to cereal bars and Austin Snack Crackers but now it's in greens CVS granola bars and Jenny Fucking Craig cheesecake which btw record level they added EVERY allergen to that shit.

Anyway if you have allergies be fucking careful because we're expendable and if you don't please get fucking angry for us. They're already making your food worse to save money but they're also going to kill someone this way.

You ever think about how crows are acting not unlike how early humans probably did and you're just like. Oh ok

I saw a Thing one time about how the earliest sign of civilization is a healed femur because that shows that we were taking care of each other because if we Didn't a broken leg would mean you Die because you can't. Do things

And I was thinking about this and I remembered also seeing an article about this one mated pair of crows where one of them broke its beak and thus couldn't properly feed itself on its own. So the other one helps

So basically I have connected the two dots ("you didn't connect shit") I've connected them

And also they not only use tools but teach each other how to construct them, so uh

Really makes you think

Realistically I know immortality would kinda suck but I'd love to see where crows are going with this

Fun fact, there is little info on crows (as far as species of interest go) because they're so good at evading human tactics for collection and observation. I had a friend who studied them in grad school. Not only do they describe humans to each other (so crows you've never seen before will avoid you), they also learn the precise distance of net cannons (for trapping and tagging) after 1 encounter and then stand at that distance the entire time (making naive researchers think maybe they can juuuust caych em). So basically you need to befriend them (a common strategy), or find a murder that's never seen you before (researchers wear presidents masks to throw them off, but then they remember and describe the cars). In this case, you have one chance to collect enough in the group to get good data. Whatever crow you catch once, you probably will never catch again, ruling out biosensing devices (like they use with other birds and turtles n junk).

The latest big finding about crows is that they have a grasp of knowledge breadth, meaning they "know what they know" meaning they are conscious (self aware), have subjective experiences and can reflect on their knowledge. (Source) This also implies they have an understanding of the unknown.

Look up Andreas Nieder and Jon Marzluff's work if you want the deep skinny.

i came up with this idea when i was very sleep deprived and i then spent like 30 minutes intermittently blowing on my screen. i was very entertained, at one point i laughed so hard i almost lost my voice. i figured that this was just a symptom of being very easily amused due to my condition but now that im awake again i see that this is easily the best post ive ever made. i have peaked, i will never post anything this good again. fffffffffffffffff. ffffffffffff. ffffffffffffffffffff. ffffffffffffffffffffffffff

The biggest cause of decreasing numbers in wizard populations isn’t magical mishaps or wizard duels, and it’s especially not old age, since some wizards manage immortality through their arcane knowledge. No, the true wizard-killer is falling for the irresistible urge to polymorph yourself into just a li'l guy of a creature and walk into the woods, never to be seen again. Forgo society and fuck off into the woods for the rest of time. Oh how nice it would be to just be a li'l guy...
