me: the guy who stole the plane says he doesn't know how to land it, and has no intention of landing it.
Spouse: too bad, it will land eventually.
me: but he's--
Spouse: or water. but sooner or later it won't be able to air any more.
me: ........ *falls over laughing*

Steven Universe self-care posters from someone's school. These are perfect. They actually read like they were written by people who watch the damn show.

messy queer politics
"Queer is a slur" is a basic divide-and-conquer tactic. People invested in preventing further inclusion, both on the external right-wing side and the sort of "egalitarian" liberalism, don't want blanket terms. They don't want people to be able to use a malleable, inclusive term because you can exercise control over people by *demanding* that they define themselves specifically, and then separating them from each other. It's a methodology for preventing and disrupting intersectionality.
@Leucrotta @Jssra *skrreeeeeee*
every time Nar comes up and SCREAMS at me for FOOD NAO and it's not food time I brush him with the cat brush. which he likes, *too much*--he can't handle it, and he writhes around a lot and then runs away. he needs lots of brushing anyway! food time will be soon, but meanwhile--NAR BRUSHING #catthings
I was DISTINCTLY TOLD, in the 1990s, that if we put computers into all the things it would make us all super-smart and super-sexy and super-kind and we would all live in houses made of translucent plastic and acid dance and rainforests and we would specifically NOT become a society of giant raging dumbass jerks selling fake nutritional supplements to Nazis.
There were RECEIPTS. Money changed HANDS.
I wish to complain to the MANAGEMENT.
