I finally got the Crested Caracara’s call on video!
WONDERFUL
god DAMN that’s extra
Day: August 18, 2017
Yay. It started thundering, so of course Feist just dashed into the kitchen and back behind the washing machine to take cover. Again.
the world: *throws various problems at me*
me: Ma’am, please understand. I’m not emotionally involved in the situation.
They have signs on the bread slicers and produce scales at Whole Foods now, informing you that you may want to avoid using them if you’d like to maintain the “organic integrity” of the food.
WHO
it took me. so much longer than it should have to realize they meant, like, his decendents and not people who were kinning with confederate general stonewall jackson and had somehow in the 21st century come to terms with the faults of the confederacy. way, way too long.
In most contexts I would have got it, but because this is Tumblr I thought this was a shit post about the former.
I actually thought it was next weekend that work was sending him to Budapest. Not entirely happy about the timing, but hey. At least he did take the whole week off, so he had yesterday at home.
(With more work-related travel for a conference coming up in a couple of weeks, apparently. One thing I liked about his last job: they never sent him anywhere that I recall. This place isn’t as bad for it as Google, but still.)
Also kind of irritated right now, because I forgot to ask him to take care of the litter box yesterday and was planning to today. It didn’t get changed before the Worldcon trip, and it’s bad enough by now that it’s not waiting until after the weekend. (Or past this afternoon, from the smell of things now.) Multiple problems getting in the way of me doing that or not.
So of course I end up feeling selfish and guilty over that. If I could help being disabled none of the practical stuff like that would be a problem, though.
Men’s Rights Activism Is the Gateway Drug for the Alt-Right
Fuck these fucking fuckers.
There are good reasons why men’s-rights activism has served for so many as a gateway drug to the alt-right: Both movements appeal to men with fantasies of violent, sometimes apocalyptic redemption — and, like Cantwell, a tendency to express these fantasies in bombastic prose. And both movements are based on a bizarro-world ideology in which those with the most power in contemporary society are the true victims of oppression.
In other words, if you can convince yourself that men are the primary victims of sexism, it’s not hard to convince yourself that whites are the primary victims of racism. And it’s similarly easy for members of both movements to see white men as the most oppressed snowflakes of all.
You’re the bad guy in somebody’s story.
Pal I’m the bad guy in MY story
are you or a loved one suffering from allism spectrum disorder, the lack of autism? check these symptoms to find out!!
1. becomes uncomfortable or irritable when not making eye contact during interactions
2. lives by a set of unspoken rules, becomes distressed or even aggressive when said rules are broken. expects people to know and understand these rules without telling them.
3. has a wide range of shallow interests, may show little or no interest in learning every detail of said interests.
4. experiences only mild enjoyment from engaging in above interests, not deep satisfaction.
5. unable to adequately engage in one task related to an interest for more than two to three hours at a time.
6. hopelessly numb to sensory input including bright light, background noise, light touch, overwhelming odours.
7. engages in little or no self-regulatory stimming. shows little or no desire to stim.
if you show most of these traits, you may have allism! reblog to spread allism awareness! autistics with loved ones suffering from allism are welcome to share more symptoms of allism!
Amusing BUT I would alter :
6. insensitive to sensory input – do not notice bright lights, excessive noise, uninvited physical contact, strong odors.7. rarely use self-stimulation to regulate emotions and stress level, allows emotions and stress to follow the dictates of outside forces.
You guys are missing out. We’ve been making fun of neurotypicals for nearly twenty years. 🙂
