Stop saying “do it scared” i do everything scared I sleep scared Boy i’ll kill u

hey man. nice regional dialect. mind if i apply some baseless assumptions about your personhood to it? i was also gonna prescribe morality to it as well. if that’s cool with you

The fact that “dolls having a tea party” has stuck around in the public consciousness is fascinating to me.

Like, back in the Old Days that would be a way that women would actually socialize.  So if a girl had a doll tea party, she was imitating her mom / other contemporary women.

But these days contemporary women don’t have tea parties. So now, the idea of “dolls having a tea party” is an echo of an extinct behavior, only repeated and referenced because it used to be so prevalent.

So a Barbie in a big hat themed for a tea party is a bit like if they made Transformers that turned into stagecoaches and horse-drawn buggies.

Like I wouldn’t buy the fuck out of stagecoach transformers

Trying out some brushes for extra effects on scales. They're not super visible here, I'll have to draw a more shiny fish next. It's the same character as last time, one that had Pteraspis armor. I'm still not yet sure what name I should give her. It will come with time I guess.

i heard you can purchase goods and services using cash and bills or some stupid crap like that

whenever I read about tardigrades being super resistant to all kinds of shit I side eye the scientists who were *checks my notes* doing this shit

do they do this to every new animal? a new monkey gets found in the rainforest, let's throw it at walls to see how tough it is

RIP to the tardigrades subjected to impacts of 901m/second and momentary shock pressures of 1.15 gigapascals

one time i was at a week long youth conference for church stuff (who else exmormon and did efy?) and there was a few hundred of us or something so we were all split into these groups and the groups were obviously gendered bc it would be inappropriate for a fourteen year old boy to be encouraged to talk to a fourteen year old girl DUH. anyways our group of like fifteen or twenty girls or whatever. we were ordering pizza for the last day of the conference and every group had to tally up how hungry we were so they knew how much to order. and this was the last day of a week of twelve hour days and we were tired we had been taking class outside and it was hot as hell and etc. anyways we sat in a circle and our group leader who was the only adult woman there had us all take turns saying out loud to the circle how much pizza we thought we would eat so they could get a headcount for ordering. which. holy fuck what an awful way to do that? you put a huge group of young girls in a circle and had us all announce out loud how much we eat? anyways every SINGLE girl said "Oh Im Not Hungry I Just Want One Slice." until it got to me and i was like 3/4 the way around the circle and i said "To Be Honest i could have an entire medium hawaiian to myself right now but ill probably restrain myself to five pieces or something." and everypony started laughing because yes i was also the fattest girl in our group. but i was also kindof really brave as a 14 yo and i just kept going i genuinely said "I think you guys are being stupid because youre definitely hungry you just wont say it." and the leader was like "okay be real though how many slices?" and i said "im being serious Sister im so hungry and we have another four hours here including a soccer game. i want five or six slices of pizza." anyways after i did that big demonstration some of the girls following me said Two slices and one said Three. sometimes being the friendless heavy Bad girl is vital to the ecosystem and health of those around you. and btw they did get me a large hawaiian and let me take home what i didnt finish.

Hmmm I just saw someone holding up Weird Al as a perfect unproblematic paragon and if it catches on I will be Concerned. Not because of the man himself but because we've seen this cycle play out plenty of times before and I know what happens next.

Look, I like the guy, he's a good musician and parodist and from what little I do know about his personal life he seems like a decent and kind person. But he's human. That is a human being. Eventually he's going to say something a lot of people disagree with or not say something when people want him to or some blemish from his past (maybe not even something all that bad!) is gonna surface and people are gonna have to confront the fact that he's not who they hyped him up to be. And when that happens an unfortunate number of people are going to treat it as a betrayal because of the unrealistic standard they set.

Entertainers are people. You can find them fun or even admirable and still not try to make saints out of them.

I love playing planet zoo with my little creatures and giving them Habitat and Enrichment and seeing their happy behaviours. it is my favourite thing about pet-owning. I will give my isopods a million apple slices and my old ass cats a million shelves to roll around on, and this will continue forever
