The trade off for this feeling like how combining toothpaste and orange juice tastes is that it will be really funny to see the the kind of psychic damage Tamsmuir can inflict on the average booktok reviewer.

just saw gideon the ninth called romantasy and grouped with fourth wing and acotar and lemme tell you i was not ready for that one

There was a measurable spike in hate crimes last time he was elected so predicting the same thing will happen again seems reasonable.

what is the logic behind "trump won so i should buy a gun". like. i think its gotta be....increased rate of hate crimes? or you think theres gonna be all-out civil war? or...youre gonna do a waco? it seems like dream logic to me. like. theres no actual cause and effect thinking. having a gun = safer. im not even against guns, i have a gun, theyre fun toys! they can, in some situations, if you have enough training, be useful for self-defense, altho your odds of being in such a situation are slim. but like. you cant shoot abortion into being legal

I think English uses age in roughly the same way these two languages use size. Lots of places called the old or new somesuch.

every fuckin’ thing in Paris is le petite this or la petite that just like the way everything in China can be 小 (at least when it’s not le grande / 大) and I’m thinking that English should make better use of smol

Given the machete-guy incident it seems like we’re already past 2.

I should have posted sooner so I could let it run for a week and end before election day. Reblog for greater visibility please.

I'm watching Til Death and I'm not sure if I've done just an uncommon number of body drag exercises but I feel like she's making this look a lot harder than it is. Pulling someone over hardwood floors is easy as shit.

Unironically though I think this probably does say as much about Ibbot's issues with masculinity as all the incredibly uncomfortable things with Helen do his issues with femininity.

the 30 meter tall experiment has a huge fucking cock that is just slangin all over the place, obliterating everything in its wake. considering he is helen's brother we can assume he is supposed to represent the male beauty standard, just like helen does - which just hammers in how unfair the world is to men. see woman juat need to be skinny and blonde, but men? we need to be 10 stories tall and have a dick the size of a fucking minivan. all because of woke.

I think this only works if you kind of ignore that societal expectations absolutely do exist and impact people regardless of their personal feelings about the whole thing.

It seems like a valid political choice to say I think these rules are dumb and I refuse to abide by them, but they clearly do exist and most people are stuck going along with them due to either having internalised them without examination or actually feeling comfortable fulfilling the role they are expected to fulfil.

Excluding the most painfully woke five square miles or so of the world pretty much everyone has to rub up against some jackass that actually will give them shit for looking queer.

the term “non binary” is completely redundant. Men and women can act and dress however they want without it needing to be some super special new identity

For Wolverine accelerated muscle development is explicitly how it works. Dude weighs like 300lbs at 5'3 of that a hundred pounds or so is metal and most of the rest is the kind of incredibly dense muscle that a 24 hour workout and no recovery time produces.

so the way typical humans build muscle is by doing excercise which causes small tears to the fibres of the muscles, so that when they regrow they grow even bigger.

now my question is, would this work on a superhero with healing factor? like logan or deadpool or whoever, would their muscle fibers tear normally and then rebuild in the way normal muscle fibers grow?

would the result be that they can grow muscle even faster or that they cannot grow muscle at all?

It seems possible even that some Americans may be familiar with the concepts of causality and linear time such that they could recognise that conditions in the present are influenced by events in the past. That is admittedly a reach though.

I'm confused as to why you think Trump can be beaten. He only lost in 2020 because he was blamed for an unfolding catastrophe, and it was still a pretty narrow loss. In 2024 he can just point to how comparatively better everything was during his presidency and people will go along with it. None of his bad behavior or horrifying political aims means anything, because either people don't care, or the media doesn't care.

Well, for one I think he can be beaten because even the polls (which IMO underrated Biden) now show Harris ahead. For two, the Washington August jungle primary, which is a pretty historically useful leading indicator for the November elections, is consistent with a national environment that favors the Democrats. For three, the numbers that did show Trump ahead require you to believe some fairly odd things about the American electorate that have not been true in any recent election, including primary elections and special elections held so far this year. For four, while there are a lot of narratives about why Trump lost in 2020, I don’t think retro-prognostication based on a single factor is actually a cogent way to analyze elections. For five, his campaign is currently flailing, his VP pick is wildly unpopular, he got no convention bounce, and many voters seem thoroughly sick of him.

So yeah, I’m feeling pretty confident that doomers like you have no idea what they’re talking about. Harris could lose—hell, a gamma ray burst from a surprise supernova could sterilize the earth before November—but right now her odds are decent. She is, by most measures, even slightly favored.

Also I expect you to send me €300 for having to be yet another doomer’s Election Therapist. Unfortunately for you, I am not on the Krankenkasse, so I’ll need that by cash, bank transfer, or PayPal.

Unless she intends to live in France I can’t see how JKR would make much use of it. We’re talking about a law prosecuted by the state too so just using it as a financial beat stick wouldn’t really work either.

Surely this depends on how much you perceive the fersona as an expression of self. If you see the fur suit self as truest self then wouldn’t you be if anything more exposed while wearing it?

I saw a tik tok from a muslim girl who is also a furry and indeed wears fursuits and now im super curious.

Does she need to wear a hijab beneath the fursuit??? Could the fursuit count as one already? Arguably they cover way more than a burqa would. Obviously because her fursona was muslim as well the fursuit already had a hijab, so does that count for the person inside the suit as well?

Many questions to ask

Honestly if you’re going to play into this it seems like a princess who plays the game well enough to end up the power behind the throne would be a natural progression anyway. They’re still the protagonist of a story after all.

Yknow what. I’m just gonna say it.

It’s about time we have a fictional princess who actually enjoys being a princess.

She enjoys the politics. She enjoys the diplomacy. And she enjoys the balls and banquets and attention and pretty dresses and that doesn’t make her a dumb shallow bimbo or some regressive anti feminist handmaid or whatever the kids say these days about women who don’t fall in line with their Strong Female Character power fantasies.

All the princesses urging for ‘something more’ that’s all fine and good but I’m ready to see a princess who appreciates that being a princess is already a lot!
