A Happy Brainy To Counter The Recent Brainy Angst I Saw On Tumblr

living with gluten-free diet is like no it's ok don't worry about me I can manage

but then looking like this when someone else asks if there are any gluten free options before you can even mention it

Rose here,first of all i like to apologise for my bad English it’s not my first language,

now for the stuff I’m about to talk of I seen other people talking about it too and I’m glad it has began to be more spoken about. the infantilisation off Giyuu tomioka, it has been bothering me for a while,

1. Giyuu is not a uwu depressed baby how needs to be taken care of HES A GROWN ADULT no sanemi and obanai aren’t “evil bullies” Giyuu can protect himself, he is not defenceless stop acting like hes a baby in need of protection.

2.giyuu being “autistic coded” since I’m autistic myself I’m gonna talk about it,people for some reason like to infantilize characters that the fandom see as “autistic coded” it’s a big problem and we need to talk about it.i myself have been multiple times been infantalized for being autistic, since they see autistic people as “slow” or “kid like” they like to act like we can’t take care of ourselves. another character victim of this is papyrus from undertale, even do he’s a strong character and can take care of himself still gets infantilised, like Giyuu for somtimes not getting “social stuff”stop infantilising “autistic coded characters” pls.

3.stop making female characters “mother figures” to male characters. What I mean by that is have seen people make Shinubo a motherly figure to Giyuu, do I even have to explain myself why this is shit? First stop making Shinubo either be a mean bitch to Giyuu or a mother to him it’s annoying and out ofcharacter.Giyuu doesn’t need a *mommy to take care of him” and stop making all female characters “mommies” just because their a girl doesn’t mean you need to make them a motherly figure to all the male characters.

Well I’m done now hope this wasn’t too long

rose out,

haiii!!!!! haiiiiiii!!!!! hiiii!!!!! ^_^ haaaiiiiii hellooooo hiiiii !!!!! hiiiiiiiiiii

We all know what erectile dysfunction is but literally no one is ever taught what vaginismus is and it can cause people to feel extremely lost, broken, and cause people to take their own lives. Raise. Awareness.

I have a head girl interview but I’m nonbinary and I prefer to be referred to a he/him than she/her when someone doesn’t use they/them.

Therefore,

I will refer to it as my head UFO interview.

Unidentified

F’ing queer

Object

And if I am assigned the role, I will:

Go on the website they get their badges on

Buy identical badges to the head girl ones

Make them say things like ‘head UFO’ and ‘head enby’ etc

Wear them at random intervals and see how long it takes for someone to notice

Laugh when I’ve left year 11 having worn a ‘head gay’ badge the entire year and nobody has noticed.

Thank you for listening to my scheme

Edit: I didn’t get Head UFO, but I did get senior prefect. Or as I like to call it, MEGA PREFECT. Fear me! All the praise, literally no responsibilities, or gender requirements.

Nobody asked but I'm excited about this, so here's a headcanon/theory I have that I'm adding into my Smurfs fanfic. Please hear me out:

When a baby Smurf is delivered by stork to a village, it's because it had no capable guardian. The loss of their guardian turns the moon physically blue- it doesn't have to be an actual blue moon. Papa used Baby's arrival to convince his Smurfs this is how Smurfs are born, but Smurfs are hermaphroditic and do actually reproduce sexually. Papa is just embarrassed by the whole idea of talking about it.

I also hc that both Papa and Willow's villages are formed entirely out of Smurfs that have been delivered by stork. This is because neither found a partner and so were able to adopt and raise new baby Smurfs from other parents, rather than having their own. It's kinda similar to kea (alpine parrots native to New Zealand) that don't find partners - they run schools for groups of young kea to learn kea skills.

And some things I have considered:

Wild- got lost but was adopted by squirrels before the stork could take him to a village. The squirrels were deemed worthy parents and so wild was left with them.

Baby delivered to wrong village in comic (this theory only works for the lost village/ntob timeline) - he's actually a 'girl' smurf with alopecia and was meant for the girls' village, but the stork got mixed up because he was hairless and it thought he was a true hairless Smurf like the rest of the 'boy' Smurfs. In reality he will never be able to grow hair, even at Papa's age.

The system is to help prevent the already dwindling Smurf population from falling even further. It's just an idea and I'm sure there are holes but yk

Fun to think about :)

Also I consider the 'boy' Smurfs to just be hairless Smurfs, and 'girl' Smurfs to just be Smurfs with head hair.

Kinda like a dog breed situation, where each one finds more familiarity with their own breed and so the storks group them together.

The Exotic Animal Photo Reference Repository is live!

You can find it at: https://www.animal-photo-references.com!

Here's how this repository works: all photos were taken by me, a human, at zoos, aquariums, sanctuaries, and other facilities with animals in human care. There is no AI involved in the photo editing or creation and there never will be. Right now there's 56 species on the site; my catalog has over 300 and I will be uploading the rest of them as fast as I can.

Artists creating derivative or transformative works (without AI) have blanket permission to use these references. Yes, even for work you're going to sell.

All other usage/reproduction requires permission, but assume I'm friendly and please do ask! That's educators, researchers, the media, people who need images for a school presentation, etc. This is just to retain copyright/control in case they're scraped/reused unethically - it doesn't meant I don't want folk to have access! So please do reach out via the contact form on the repository website, I don't bite and I'm most likely going to say yes.

Please don't repost the repository photos to your own blogs: I've created @animalphotorefs as a dedicated blog to share photos from the site, and of course I'll reblog a lot of it here! That again just helps with retaining copyright and sourcing of the images. If you really want to repost some for a specific purpose, please just ask me first!

Also, folks, this project has no funding. It's just me and my camera.

There will never be a paywall on the site - I believe resources like this absolutely must be free for everyone to access. So please, please, please support the repository if you use it. Want sneak peeks at photos, cute videos I take, or to help choose what I photograph and what gets posted first? You can do that through Patreon (and there's a free trial on the most interactive tier!) If you'd like to just drop a tip, I've also set up a Ko-Fi.

I can't wait to hear what everyone thinks of the repository.

To whet your thirst for cute photos, here's an Indian rhinoceros contemplating a goose.

when it comes to manipulating children in toh

Love that the Weekend Whip exists in universe bc not only does it imply that the in-universe members of the Fold got the dance moves from Quanish’s ancient prophecy but also just imagine you’re the Ninja.

You have to save the world from complete destruction, you pull out a scroll with your last attempt and its the equivalent of like the Cupid Shuffle.

Kai’s like “So you’re saying to assume Dragon Form we have to slide to the left, slide to the right, criss-cross, and then have everybody clap their hands?”

I don't want my cellphone to have AI I want it to have 3 days of battery time. I don't want my computer to have AI preinstalled I want it to have seven usb ports and high ram at affordable price. I don't want my games to have AI built levels I want them to be so optimized I could run them on a nokia.
