“What incels want is extremely limited and specific: they want unattractive, uncouth, and unpleasant misogynists to be able to have sex on demand with young, beautiful women. They believe that this is a natural right. It is men, not women, who have shaped the contours of the incel predicament. It is male power, not female power, that has chained all of human society to the idea that women are decorative sexual objects, and that male worth is measured by how good-looking a woman they acquire.”
I know everybodys talking about the article but its this tweet itself that makes me lose my shit

me: “yo every time you put a hand down my pants my clit feels like a terrified wwi regiment getting buzzed by the red baron”
you: “when will this stigma end”
Gloves, you use gloves, I know this is hard to believe but this is a common situation especially for sex workers, you just put on gloves, I know it’s fun and cool to make fun of femininity (no way that’s rooted in misogyny).
You get gloves, which you should be using with casual partners and partners with skin sensitivity anyway, and you stuff the fingers with cotton fluff.
But yeah, no, I get it, it’s more socially acceptable to hate femininity, and the people who perform it (hint: many trans women have to perform femininity to stay safe).
God, I mean, I say use gloves but you don’t even HAVE TO, you can in fact learn to stimulate a vagina with long nails without protective covers, it just takes some practice but WHATEVER, let’s all just make up random sex myths, that’s never backfired. /sarcasm
For fucks sake, the image literally says “libfem.” If this post chain isn’t 85% radfems, swerfs and terfs in particular, I’ll eat my own fucking ass.
Like, sorry to start fucking screaming, but g o d, I have seen this post so much and it makes me want to claw off my fucking face.
Seriously the first time I saw people laughing over this I was confused because gloves+cotton is a thing that solves the problem easily like what’s the big problem. Honestly stuff like this is why there needs to be comprehensive sex-ed.
in 10 days ireland is having a referendum to hopefully repeal the 8th amendment, which equates the life of a foetus to that of an adult
abortion is currently 100% illegal in ireland with a penelty of up to 14yrs (rape is 7yrs, if even that) and up to 10 people travel to england to access abortion every single day

These are the famous “dancing lemurs” that have generated a whole bunch of creative You Tube videos, such as the one at the bottom of this post. If you need a laugh or a smile, or another example of being amazed at the weirdness of our planet, then watch the video. About a minute and half.
Excerpt:
Lemurs in Madagascar have been under pressure from deforestation, poaching, drought and other challenges for years. Now, in the much-visited Berenty Reserve near the island’s southern tip, one species faces a mysterious new threat.
In the last month and a half, at least 31 Verreaux’s sifakas (Propithecus verreauxi) have died in the reserve. Most were found already dead; others were found gravely ill and later died from respiratory failure. Berenty staff and local scientists have reached out to veterinarians and primatologists across the world. The experts believe that a parasite or tick-borne disease is likely to blame, but the exact cause remains unknown.
This is the one of largest lemur die-offs that scientists in Madagascar can remember. “We haven’t seen something like this before,” Patricia Wright, a lemur expert and the founder of Centre ValBio, a research center in eastern central Madagascar, told Mongabay.
Verreaux’s sifakas were struggling long before this outbreak. The white, fluffy lemurs were already listed as endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). The population is highly fragmented and has been declining for decades, according to the IUCN. The species is found in the dry areas and spiny forests of southwest Madagascar.
By coincidence, a large IUCN Red List Primate Specialist Group meeting took place last week in Antananarivo, Madagascar’s capital, and reassessing the endangerment status of all lemur species was a top agenda item. The group decided to uplist all nine sifaka species from endangered to critically endangered, according to people in attendance. The status change is not yet official, but during the meeting the Facebook page of the specialist group’s Lemur Conservation Network project mentioned it: “We are very sad to announce that all sifaka species are now under the Critically Endangered criteria.”
its the list we’ve been waiting for *its a meme dont call me out
American toad (Anaxyrus americanus)
that’s my baby Hippolyta!

Pros -look like fruit -always kinda look like they farted really loudly and dont want ppl to know it was them -stance Cons -actually the false tomato frog, true tomato frogs aren’t in pet trade -no one breeds them which makes me so sad -they look like great pillows but theyre frogs and not pillows
Pros -sticky -really have that stereotypical frog shape from cartoons and stuff -it doesnt hurt when they bite Cons -kinda basic and they know it, theyre smug -sometimes bite each other cuz theyre bad at eating food -they dont live in the dirt like other self respecting toads and frogs
Oriental fire belly toad (Bombina orientalis)
its my Sparky son

why isn’t anyone allowed to be wrong anymore? it’s okay to be wrong. no one should be terrified of every tiny little mistake they might make. being wrong, and realizing you were wrong, is how you learn and grow and change.
