little bow tie on top = "female-presenting"
little bow tie on bottom = "male-presenting"

like that's literally all you need to know. some people have said that putting a mustache on your nipple will make it "male-presenting" but that's still pretty gender-ambiguous imo.

DO NOT WRAP A BOW TIE AROUND THE NIPPLE. this will fatally confuse the tumblr nipple-sorting algorithm and cause every .jpg on the site to be replaced with pineapple emojis. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

So there was a Tumblr post a while ago musing on the fact that Charlie Weasley was able to get together a group to smuggle a dragon across international borders on two days notice - https://packbat.tumblr.com/post/147254894127/blueelectricangels - and one of the responses was from a biologist who said: "speaking as a biologist, i can guarantee i would show up without question to smuggle an endangered species that would otherwise be destroyed across national borders to a sanctuary on two days’ notice."

...and I think that's something that a lot of writers who aren't scientists, archaeologists, zoologists, et cetera might not think about? Society writes an implicit list of Things You Are Allowed To Care A Whole Lot About, and while I suspect *everyone* has items they drop or add to that list, if you are writing a scholar with a particular field of study? Something irreplaceable in their field may well have a value to them on par with their own limbs.

And I think writers miss that sometimes. So it occurs to me to mention.

Adora is a political science undergrad who has a column in Teen Vogue. Entrapta is her neurodivergent friend who still works at Facebook.

the honorific title for a cat (mx, ms, mr, etc) is mw (pronounced mew)

If you stayed at a Marriott hotel (which may not have had the Marriott name, as they own several brand names of varying luxuries), you need to protect yourself. You can get a free credit freeze at these sites:

Word.

It's a well-known* fact** that instances of UTI drop nearly 40% immediately after Thanksgiving, due to the increase in cranberry consumption***.

Anarcho communism relies on those who produce and earn to give to those who don't produce things that have Market Value.

Or put another way, communes work best when they have a couple people in there that understand capitalism and can swim with sharks for the good of the tribe.

The rewards to the tribe of having someone who just does Art, research and home base ops is far in excess of the Cost however.

Villages Work. Start building one.

tl;dr: 32 people in the US and 18 people in Canada have shown illness symptoms from Shiga toxin-producing E. coli on romaine lettuce, including at least one kidney failure. Source unknown - discard any romaine lettuce you have, clean out the refrigerator where it was stored, and do not purchase or eat any.

Wait.

If it’s International Men’s Day and International Toilet Day, does that average out to International Urinal Day? Do those big industrial troughs like on the ferry count?

Legitimately hate how any time anybody has a problem with any piece of software or a website, programmers/engineers get blamed/ridiculed instead of Literally Anybody Else Involved In Making Product Decisions

This instance (especially this bot https://mstdn.foxfam.club/@d3vnull) was clearly purpose-built to put the views & beliefs of white nationalists and fascists onto our timelines.

We here at ✨Plush✨ City are opposed to white nationalism and fascism in all its forms. As such, we actively work to de-platform white nationalists, whenever possible. This is such an act; we encourage other #mastoadmin folks to join us in solidarity.
