This has been in my head for a week.
No, I do not know how to make a meme.
Speaking of no way home, why has no one taught this kid first aid yet? May's bleeding out in front of him and he doesn't even try to apply pressure
Does spiderman noir count as a black spiderman?
Level 1: I didn't assume that these two words with similar spellings and related meanings share a common origin because I don't think about things like that.
Level 2: I'm completely certain these two words with similar spellings and related meanings share a common origin because it's fucking obvious just from looking at them, you absolute simpleton.
Level 3: I didn't assume that these two words with similar spellings and related meanings share a common origin because I know what a false cognate is.
crows have been documented holding ‘funerals’ for many years. however, researchers suggest that they may not be mourning; evidence indicates that crows may be examining the body & surrounding area for potential threats to the rest of the flock.

everyone say happy birthday creampuff 🎉🎉
a friend and i are taking her on a drive so she can get some wind under her wings. don't worry we've got her latched on properly so she doesn't fall off. will liveblog how it goes
a symbiotic relationship of sorts...
Wait a second: cuckoos are nest parasites. Do "cuckoo" and "cuckold" share a common root?
Huh. Apparently the etymology of "cuckold" is literally something along the lines of "cuckoo-lord".
Facing off with Dudu
English added by me :)
I'm just going to leave this here, because this woman said what I've been trying to articulate for ages much more effectively and succinctly than I've been able to
I just met a mother of an autistic child who thinks vaccines cause autism but is still pro-vaccine. Didn't know ppl like her existed tbh
But he's so much quieter about it than trump!
No but thanks for pointing that out. It makes sense, American left is still far right, but I still didn't really clock it.
Though I still think trump would be worse. Are there third options in America? Or are you voting trump? (are you American?)
alright gang, let's do a fun little thought experiment.
which city would biden have to completely annihilate before you decide not to vote for him?
for the sake of this thought experiment, let's ignore actual real-world alliances between countries. it can be london, or paris, or athens, or barcelona, or rome, or berlin, or even an american city like new york or new orleans or los angeles or honolulu. this is all a hypothetical after all.
really consider it. if you're gonna bother to yap in my notes, at least try to engage with this question in good faith. imagine opening up the news, and you see that a bomb was dropped on this city, and then the bombs never stop. imagine you had a friend there. imagine you'd had a trip planned to meet them and see the sights. imagine every museum, every historical monument, every theatre, every university destroyed. imagine that one day, you lived in a world where this city existed, and the next, it has completely ceased to be. it's effectively been pompeii-ed out of our world entirely. there is no longer a big ben, or a parthenon, or a colosseum, or what have you. there is no longer that foreign musician you loved from this city. there are no longer sweet old grannies to share old family recipes from this part of the world. there is no longer the online friend you wanted to visit. there is no longer your vacation plans.
don't hit me with, "but it's netanyahu doing this," because israel would literally run out of ammunition in weeks without the US. don't hit me with, "but trump!" because that quite literally is not the fucking question.
which city has to completely cease to exist before you even consider that this system isn't ever going to work?
if you are still planning to vote for biden, then either a) biden could drop a nuke on any city on earth and it wouldn't be a dealbreaker for you, or b) in your mind, people and places are divided into ones that are acceptable to destroy and ones that are not. or at least, there are ones that are more acceptable to destroy than others.
come up with your answer and either realize you sound like a fascist and work to change it, or embrace that you are a fascist and stop lying to us about caring about people of color.
Just to be clear, I am not actually American. I do not stay up to date on American politics. It come up on the news and I'm like 'that's wild. Anyway-', partially because they don't go into depth and partially because I have better things to do than worry about things I can't affect. I get involved with local stuff but I've only got so much time and energy.
If Biden stood where I am everyone would stare and wonder how the hell that nut job got so far. Then go and vote for someone who will actually try to make the country better, or at least won't be actively making it worse.
I draw the line at actively screwing over the people you're responsible for, at pissing on migrants and refugees, and trying to start a war.

I'm so desperate for something sweet that I'm about to eat brown sugar.
Of course it's not about me? I didn't mean to imply that it was?

I just wanted to bring it up since no one else had mentioned it. I don't like anyone dying.
May I ask what your solution is? Are Biden and trump the official nominees now? How likely is a third party candidate to win? Hasn't Biden started paying lip service at least to supporting a cease fire? What would happen if trump got in, would he stop anything? Because that was my point, actually - Biden screws over one country, trump at least two.
Or do you support a complete overhaul of the American political system? I can definitely understand the appeal, I'd hate to live there. But how long would that take?
These are all honest questions by the way. I'm not an expert, and what's happening in Gaza is horrific. I'd love to know what you would do.

Schrodinger: Okay, I think there's an issue with the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics. Here's a thought experiment to demonstrate why its understanding of "observations" is problematic. Suppose we put a cat in a box with a sample of uranium, a geiger counter, and a hammer rigged to smash open a box of poison if the geiger counter detects any radiation. After an hour,there's a 50% chance the cat is alive. But according to the Copenhagen interpretation,
Tumblr: I'm gonna cut you off there. That's horrible, I would never do that to a poor defenseless cat. It's so easy to avoid putting a cat in a box with radiation and hammers and poison. You've deliberately constructed an extremely avoidable situation and then asked people to consider it inevitable. Why aren't we asking ourselves what institutions had to fail for the cat to end up in the box in the first place?
Schrodinger: ...
Lmao so apparently Swifties are now trying to claim "female rage" and have merch with Taylor on it with like "FEMALE RAGE"
Girl, you would pass out 5 seconds into an Ethel Cain song. You could not handle a single note from Dresden Dolls. Fiona Apple is too left of the dial for you.
TayTay makes middle of the road pop songs for dentist waiting rooms and dates a star football player.
People remember that Russia and Ukraine are still at war, right? And that trump has ties to Russia?
From what I understand of US politics the only viable options for president are Biden or trump, and that trump's popular enough to win even if he's in prison.
So who do you want to have americas backing? Israel, who can only succeed because the rest of the world let's them? Or Russia, who's a world superpower that owns nukes? (and also Israel because I highly doubt trump would stop supplying them with weapons)
(also, do you really want to let that guy get back in power? After his rigged election claims and everything else? Really?)

hey fellow Europeans (EU), just a friendly and mildly concerned reminder that in less than a month, the European elections are taking place. it's an election with a historically low turnout, but one that is just as important as any other, if not more. the composition of the EU parliament determines the political direction of the EU, and has an impact on all 27 countries through directives and regulations that get voted.
we cannot let far right extremist parties get an even bigger stronghold there than they already do. sadly, there are very significant threats of exactly that happening from many countries.
so please, if you are an EU citizen living in the EU and are of voting age, check the modalities to vote in your country of residence, and make sure to make your voice heard.
Dawn Island
its called fucking dawn island. Of course it is.
