For The Love Of God And Your Cat And Birds And The Environment Keep Your Cat Indoors

vander fumbled hard like imagine having a gorgeous anarchist boyfriend with a straight up sculpted nose and a crazy haircut and then fumbling him so hard he gets a villain arc

Every Minecraft world has that one person…

"oh, so you're just friends?" no we aren't 'just' friends. we are friends. we are everything that means, and it isn't any less than a romantic relationship.

we're parabatai, we're besties, we're siblings (unofficially but emotionally), we're attached. we have pinterest boards for each other, I give them presents for no reason other than i saw something I thought they'd like. They buy drinks and laugh as I chug a bottle at speed because im constantly thirsty. they say im the sun and they're the moon. my moon.

our messages consist of videos saying "I love you. You made my life better. You have impacted me as a person forever." and videos consisting of "lmao look at this dude" "cat cat cat cat" "this song made me think of you" "lmao look at this orchestra following a runner playing the mission impossible music while they run" "You're my favourite person" "this is an edit of your favourite show" "this is an edit of my favourite show".

we are not just friends. we are friends.

platonic relationships aren't worth less than romantic ones. don't diminish them with the word "just"

I bring a passionate 18th style platonic attraction to the function that the amatonormitivity/relationship hierarchy fans can’t handle.

"Friends dont look at friends that way" COWARD. I look at my friends with awe in my eyes, my chest is filled with love, im glowing because i get to be near my friends. I look at my friends and i would give them my everything. SO SKILL ISSUE, look at your friends with all the love that you have

Okay I’m pretty anti Christianity in general because of my upbringing, but I fully believe the phrase, “then go and sin no more” is one of the most powerful statements of moral philosophy in the history of the world

Just started a new book where the regency gentleman doesn't employ a valet, and it made a big deal of how he likes to dress himself. But all I could think about was who is looking after those clothes? It mentions sending to the village seamstress for mending, but is he ironing them himself? Brushing the coats and blacking the boots?

Baffling! I guess a footman would have to do it without having the prestige/ pay of a valet? I know the author is like “lol at this independent man he’s so progressive” but within the context of his society I feel like all his peers, servants, and neighbors would think him cheap and stingy.

It's always so weird to come down from the biology heavens to see what the average person believes about animals, plants, ecosystems, just the world around them. I don't even mean things that one simply doesn't know because they've never been told or things that are confusing, I'm talking about people who genuinely do not see insects as animals. What are you saying. Every time I see a crawling or fluttering little guy I know that little guy has motivations and drive to fulfill those motivations. There are gears turning in their head! They are perceiving this world and they are drawing conclusions, they are conscious. And yet it's still a whole thing if various bugs of the world feel pain or if they are simply Instinct Machines that are Not Truly Aware of Anything At All????? Help!!!!!! How can you look at a little guy and think he is just the macroscopic animal version of a virus

the asexual double edged sword is that a lot of people, particularly queer discoursers(tm) online, are really really rancid about ace people who have sex, I mean like stunningly awful, so naturally sex favorable/indifferent asexuals will be very keen on making sure that they aren't erased within their own community and that people at large know they exist. at the same time, people are also Very Bad about ace people who don't have sex, and sex averse/repulsed asexuals face a lot of pressure both on societal and interpersonal scales to submit to sex that they don't want, and so naturally it'll really rub them the wrong way to constantly have "but don't worry, ace people can still conform to the societal expectation!" appended to their PSAs about their experiences of asexuality. and so everyone's just kinda upset and annoyed all the time when instead it should be peace and love on planet ace.

who up hating pop psychology

The concept of general intelligence is such bullshit. Everyone has valuable perspectives education is just exposing yourself to some of the perspectives people have found most valuable throughout time and teaching you how to make have a more considered and contextually informed perspective

I really hate when people mystify intelligence as some innate or supernatural ability rather than the willingness to read books and consider different perspectives. Anyone with enough time, training, and preparation could become a professor. Stop seeing knowledge as arcane rather than as a skill anyone can develop.
