"Punishment works!!!" We're drowning in three to four generations of people so pants-shittingly terrified of ever being wrong that half of everyone has constructed a worldview wherein they never even consider the possibility that they could be wrong and the other half behaves like one wrong move will make anything or anyone explode violently into a million irreperable pieces. I don't think it works guys

scientists wont tell you this! (because it's not true)

experts don't want you to know this! (because it's made up)

doctors HATE this one trick! (because it's dangerous and unhealthy)

You know....I genuinely question how people or someone could say, "I can't see how Predator can fit into the Alien universe" when it's an alien species that has no intention of revealing itself to others or wanting its technology in the wrong hands.

And I'm talking about the Yautja. Like...it's easy to imagine them in it. But that's mainly me thinking that because the universe is huge, and the species is usually Hell bent on not revealing themselves. Especially the stories are usually standalone.

It would be funny if nuclear waste warning messages become an attraction for future historical linguists.

I mean look at this thing:

A parallel text in 7 languages, with 4 different scripts between them! And pictograms! All designed to be preserved intact!

Ao3 does not need an algorithm, you're just lazy

Ao3 does not need a 1-5 star rating system, you just want to bring down authors writing for FREE

Ao3 does not need automatic censorship, it is an archive, therefore anything can be posted

Writing or reading about something illegal does not mean the author nor the reader condones it, if that were true, you could never read a story involving anything negative

Purity culture is ruining fan culture and you all are fucking annoying

I don't understand anti-shipping.

Neither do I. Honestly, whatever other people ship or don’t ship is none of my business so I can’t imagine actually caring. If I don’t like a ship and don’t want to see it, I add it to my filtered tags.

If I had to guess I would say that it’s because Gen Z has grown up in a panopticon and also because organised religion has convinced people that thinking something is the same as doing it.

There’s also a bunch of SWERFs who are dedicated to pushing the “porn is evil” angle so now a bunch of kids think that smut in fanfic poisons your mind.

This is all very sad for them but tbh if they want to be miserable and cry every time they jerk off, that’s on them. Lots of us grew up yoked to religion and didn’t start sending death threats to people, and we certainly did not spew conservative talking points on tumblr.

It's amazing how much of our knowledge of "animal behaviour" is based on very old studies that just went "we half-starved these animals and put them in a tiny box together and just assumed that whatever they did reflects their natural behaviours and social structures"

Cavalier's are like that

Kovu was described as a "build-a-bear that came to life" yesterday and I really couldn't argue with that

seeing all the 14-17 y/o queer kids who don’t know what v for vendetta is…. u mean the blockbuster film written by two trans women about a masked vigilante who decides to singlehandedly take down a fascist alternate version of england set in the distant year of 2020… and his driving force was getting justice for a lesbian who he never met but whose diary he found, who was separated from her wife before being killed by said fascist gov…. and it stars natalie portman…. okay

while i understand where people are coming from i think its funny when people romanticize the old internet

I've been seeing a lot of posts about piracy lately and in light of this i do need to say something because I've been seeing a lot of misinformation.

anti-viruses, vpns, ad-blockers- none of these are going to help you here.

the first thing you're going to need is a good solid boat (preferably oak wood). you will also want some cannons and a plank depending on the sort of shenanigans you plan on getting into.

Also! Not once have i seen any of you talking about the importance of citrus fruits and vitamin C. antivirus doesn't prevent scurvy. come on you should know this by now.

this sort of misinformation is wildly dangerous and irresponsible.

I was really hesitant when my mom said she wanted to go to this wolf dog sanctuary several hours south of us. I didn’t want to be a tourist for a shady off brand zoo. But I looked the place up before agreeing. They’re completely aboveboard, all animals are spayed/neutered when entering the haven and they’re all given the space and respect they deserve.

The sanctuary serves as education and warning. Don’t get wolf dogs is practically emblazoned on every sign.

All the animals were high content, 95% wolf were most common. Their lowest was about 75% and his silly curled tail marked him as doggier than any of the others, yet he still had a sad story of being dumped in a shipping crate for days because he was too much for a house pet. Probably because he’s largely a wolf.

At the end the owner invited their two friendly ambassador animals to see if they’d like to say hello. They both did. I was politely sniffed and had my chin gently licked by the older male. The younger female demanded aggressive belly rubs and then set about biting the owner in a rough game that only she enjoyed.

Overhead ravens swooped in the treetops and made eerie eldritch calls to each other, like an echoing plink of water at the bottom of a well. It was honestly such a day.

Lumi, my favorite wolf of the day as tax he was huge and gangly and paced the fence staring at me, perhaps remembering the eighteen year old girl who had kept him in an apartment to be bred before he came to the sanctuary.
