Did you know badjokesbyjeff deleted all of the posts that called Palestine bloggers a scam and more? Without explaining why, without giving any kind apology, and that’s it. Thankfully, however, all of those posts have been archived so even though their deleted their still forever viewable. I dunno if anyone was aware of that yet. But now you know.

astronomy club sent up a weather balloon w a gopro in it last friday. put in three packs of fruit snacks so they could have a giggle over eating fruit snacks that had been to space.

balloon went up into inner space, about 90,000 feet. came down right near the dinosaur park. a few physics teachers drive out to get it, crack it open on the way home to start watching the footage.

fruit snacks are missing.

multiple sources confirm that fruit snacks were put in balloon and sealed in with duct tape. physics teachers check entire balloon. no fruit snacks.

physics teachers watch footage. all 7 hours of it. right in the middle of footage, there are about 8 minutes of visual and audio static when balloon is in orbit. no other interference with balloon recorded.

conclusions: ???????

“unlike Other Men, we [marginalized] men are actually structurally incapable of misogyny” is a disturbingly common belief that goes unchallenged on here

>The instant we unblock his card he spends 200 more dollars on Genshin Impact

If a musician wears glasses/makes nerdy music/isn't supermodel pretty the 20th century music journalist will just straight up call them ugly. If they have a large undeniable horny fanbase, they'll throw in some snide line like "Despite their humble appearance"

it’s wild though you can very clearly be like “hey transmisogyny is a problem and it’s unfortunate that so many people’s de facto conception of transness almost entirely consists of trans men and transmasc ppl, making blind spots of transmisogyny worse” and yet you’ll still get a buncha dudes going “huh, yknow, me and the other guys and enbies i hang with have never seen anything like this, you should try chilling out” as if fate wants your point proven. the “50/50 split of women and men in a space makes men feel like there’s way too many women” phenomenon and it’s corollaries is like 20x real for trans people

"when people ask how you're doing, they don't really care." most of them do, actually, the amount they care is just directly proportional to how well they know you. you're just mad you can't be the main character of the Twice Daily.

I do know that there are times posts could be written more clearly, mine included. But I just want to share that things improved a lot for me when I stopped assuming the worst. If I read something, a post or even a text from a friend, that my immediate reaction was that it was an attack at me, I’d stop and take a moment to consider whether I was misinterpreting it.

had a fun experience on the subway the other day

“If you report them and there’s actual proof then they’ll be punished. You should report.”

I have an ask in my ask box along these lines and I just want to say…

I reported what happened to me as a child. Seven years of sexual and physical abuse by someone in my family.

I went through the court process for years. Got victim blamed on the stand. And it was Hell.

In the end, he pled guilty and you know what he was given for his plea deal? A curfew. He didn’t serve a single day. He had to be in his house by a certain time at night until a certain time in the morning.

I knew a girl who was sexually abused by her mom’s boyfriend. He admitted guilt right away. You know what happened? He did serve time but he only went to jail on the weekends for about a year and was able to keep dating the mom but he had to live somewhere else so he lived across the highway.

I’m not saying people shouldn’t report. That’s a personal decision. I’m just saying to quit shaming people who don’t. Outside of the fact there often isn’t justice, sometimes reporting is re-traumatizing. Or comes with other consequences.

I got raped at 18 and 23 and never reported either because of the shit I went through in the courts. If I was victim blamed for stuff that happened when I was 6 years old to 13, surely it would be much worse as an adult.

Whether someone reports or not is personal and their decision. It is not on them if the person does it to someone else.

It's not common, but every so often I run across a baby mouse that has crawled into a discarded peanut shell. It's usually body armor but sometimes it can be headgear also.

I call them Peanut Knights. This fuzzy has a quite stylish open-face helmet!

Here she is without her helmet:
