btw terfs need to leave dianic Wicca alone. Like Wicca (at least in my tradition) is literally based on the idea that one infinite genderless being is split into male and female avatars. Even if you’re just in it for the Goddess, her origins are deeply connected to transfems based on how we perceive them both.
also the burning times didn’t exist and you need to stop harping on that.

was looking through my old rock collection and found something interesting
a complete and intact clam fossil that i had found in my backyard. i live in a completely landlocked state.
currently having a mild allergic reaction to my makeup. to be fair, the foundation was pretty old, so i should’ve seen this coming. but the redness and bumps are a bit unnecessary if you ask me.
I saw a tiktok of some guy making a joke about if Scooby Doo ever went to Mexico to solve a case he'd get killed by cartels or something and BOOO! WRONG! Real Scoobyheads know that he's already BEEN to Mexico in the classic 2003 direct to video movie Scooby Doo and the Monster of Mexico where a white American businessman tries to scam Mexicans out of their ancestral land because they refused to sell to him.
have you ever been sexually attracted to a voice

I just want to serve my femme like a knight serves their princess. I feel the need to protect her and show her how gentle I can be with her, showing her sides of me nobody has seen.
carving is finished, now it just needs sanded and painted

Hey guys be cool and normal but reblog this with the homemade meal that would get you the most hyped as a child. I need it for reasons.
"Solarpunk will never happen!"
As if it's not already coming, already here and starting to bloom before our eyes.
Neighborhood cooking clubs and libraries lending out more then just books, it's the art club that the community garden started, it's the funky gardens my neighbors have.
It's the DIY projects ppl wear with pride and ones that hide in the back of their dresser drawer. It's in the magazines and podcasts and in passing hope forward.
Like gruella gardening alone is enough for proof of concept for me, but the rise in community events and potlucks and fighting for rent caps and UBI and decentalizing energy and gardening is happening now.
And yea I gotta fight nazis and dickwards daily for it, and I gotta spend the time to educate and build up as I take down, but they can't say this future isn't coming. I'm here with you right now in it.
Wholesome Wednesday Vibes
"In 2021, scientists in Guelph, Ontario set out to accomplish something that had never been done before: open a lab specifically designed for raising bumble bees in captivity.
Now, three years later, the scientists at the Bumble Bee Conservation Lab are celebrating a huge milestone. Over the course of 2024, they successfully pulled off what was once deemed impossible and raised a generation of yellow-banded bumble bees.
The Bumble Bee Conservation Lab, which operates under the nonprofit Wildlife Preservation Canada, is the culmination of a decade-long mission to save the bee species, which is listed as endangered under the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation...
Although the efforts have been in motion for over a decade, the lab itself is a recent development that has rapidly accelerated conservation efforts.
For bee scientists, the urgency was necessary.
“We could see the major declines happening rapidly in Canada’s native bumble bees and knew we had to act, not just talk about the problem, but do something practical and immediate,” Woolaver said.
Yellow-banded bumble bees, which live in southern Canada and across a huge swatch of the United States, were once a common species.
However, like many other bee species, their populations declined sharply in the mid-1990s from a litany of threats, including pathogens, pesticides, and dramatic habitat loss.
Since the turn of the century, scientists have plunged in to give bees a helping hand. But it was only in the last decade that Woolaver and his team “identified a major gap” in bumble bee conservation and set out to solve it.
“No one knew how to breed threatened species in captivity,” he explained. “This is critically important if assurance populations are needed to keep a species from going extinct and to assist with future reintroductions.”
To start their experiment, scientists hand-selected wild queen bees throughout Ontario and brought them to the temperature-controlled lab, where they were “treated like queens” and fed tiny balls of nectar and pollen.
Then, with the help of Ontario’s African Lion Safari theme park, the queens were brought out to small, outdoor enclosures and paired with other bees with the hope that mating would occur.
For some pairs, they had to play around with different environments to “set the mood,” swapping out spacious flight cages for cozier colony boxes.
And it worked.
“The two biggest success stories of 2024 were that we successfully bred our focal species, yellow-banded bumble bees, through their entire lifecycle for the first time,” Woolaver said.
“[And] the first successful overwintering of yellow-banded bumble bees last winter allowed us to establish our first lab generation, doubling our mating successes and significantly increasing the number of young queens for overwintering to wake early spring and start their own colonies for future generations and future reintroductions.”
Although the first-of-its-kind experiment required careful planning, consideration, resources, and a decade of research, Woolaver hopes that their efforts inspire others to help bees in backyards across North America.
“Be aware that our native bumble bees really are in serious decline,” Woolaver noted, “so when cottagers see bumble bees pollinating plants in their gardens, they really are seeing something special.”"

Reblog this if you support LGBTQIA+ rights, unfollow/dni if you can't do it
Edit: I'm sorry for not putting a flash warning before, and not reblogging doesn't necessarily make you a bad person. What I'm saying is to dni/unfollow if you don't support LGBT+ rights
anybody else deeply hate spotify rn. like i used to use it all the time, i have around 50 playlists. but now it sucks ass. like 2 minutes of unskippable ads for like 5 songs. and now you cant even play individual songs! you can’t shuffle playlists. if you had your playlist on shuffle before the update, now it’s stuck that way.
it’s become more convenient to use basic youtube for music now. only 10 seconds of unskippable ads per song, plus you can play individual songs, make playlists, and shuffle/loop playlists!
i never thought we’d see the day where youtube became a better music platform than spotify. but here we are. corporate greed ruins everything.
dunno why but i really like the way my hand looks rn…
A reminder: if you were taught that mosquitoes in general are useless to the environment and could be eliminated “without consequence”, then you were taught incorrectly. People still regularly comment this silly notion on my posts with absolute confidence. Our goal is reducing risk to humans, NOT eliminating the dangerous animal altogether.
You don’t have to like irritating, gross, or dangerous animals (most people do not), but if you are ever arguing for the extinction of an entire animal species try to remember the natural world is unfathomably complex in ways none of us can predict.
got my first witchcraft book today! my nana got it from her landlady and thought id like it<3 haven’t tried any of the spells yet though
