if parks and rec was still being made they’d do a bit where ron swanson has to wear a pronouns name tag and it’d just be “???/???” And it’d cut to a talking head of him going
“I’ve been a fool all this time. It’s bad enough the government knows my name, but now they want to know my gender? So I’m not letting them know my preferred pronouns. As far as I’m concerned, no one in this building should refer to me at all.”

Me: In November, either Trump or Biden will win. There is no third outcome, so we should vote accordingly for the option that will mitigate the most harm.
The people in my notes: Oh, so you think direct action is bad? You think voting is literally the only thing we can do? You hate activism? You love Biden and endorse everything he does and think nobody should criticize him ever? You think voting will just magically solve all our problems? You think protesting is wrong? You love the status quo and think everything is fine?

omg so we have 1 seeing dog and 1 blind dog and whenever there's a toy they both want, the seeing dog takes it and just...stands very still. immobile. she KNOWS he will try to wrestle it from her but she has figured out that if she does not squeak it, then he will not find it. leading to this.

need a scene in season three of sally comforting percy when he returns home from the quest. he sobs into her shoulder and recounts the moment bianca died. the time they spent searching for her body. the grief that weighed on him when they had to continue the quest without her. the guilt he felt when he broke the news to nico. and how he feels he must bear the weight of the prophecy to protect nico. because he's just a kid.

Studies show that approaching youth with a bystander-intervention model is actually a lot more effective for reducing sexual assault, and it is also more enthusiastically received than programs that bill themselves as anti-rape.
We can tell youth that they are basically “rapists waiting to happen” (anti-rape initiative), or we can tell them that we know they would intervene if they saw harm happening to someone and we want to help empower them to do that (bystander intervention). The kids jump in with both feet for the latter! It was amazing to see children (and young boys in particular) excited to do this work and engage their creativity with it. Also, studies show that not only do they go on to intervene, but they also do not go on to sexually assault people themselves. Bystander intervention also takes the onus off the person being targeted to deter rape and empowers the collective to do something about it. It answers the question in the room when giggling boys are carrying an unconscious young woman up the stairs at a house party, and people are not sure how to respond and are waiting for “someone” to say or do something.

Okay so, got here from a book on animal behavior but: Vulcan stand-up comedy as a competitive activity.
Because most Vulcans don't actually pretend they don't have emotions, it's all about self-regulation, right? And good comedy usually hinges on manipulating the relationship between our faculties of recognition and surprise in various ways, you can get pretty scientific with it.
So Vulcans go to the comedy act, and the idea is the comedian is trying to make you crack up, and the audience is trying to not even crack a smile, and if you do laugh, you lose. Like all in good fun, but Vulcans are both really competitive and really aware of how dangerous that urge can be to a society, so this could actually be classified as highly orthodox Surakian practice.
So of course the comedian has to actually be funny, or there's no challenge and the game is boring.
Which means the really good Vulcan comedians (most of whom tend to extremely dry delivery of their bits) are going to go around playing to packed houses, which mostly sit staring stonily back at them, with occasional breaks when someone loses it and reacts.
And after a show you'll have Vulcans walking out discussing with great approval how very humorous that was, with varying degrees of muted smugness or chagrin depending on if they won or lost.
I bet there are human comedians whose grandest fantasy is being good enough to do a set in Vulcana Regatta and have people going around bragging about not laughing at them.

My feelings towards Chairman Rose are like. His motivations are overall good except that he wants his name on them. He's a babygirl to me. I would not trust this man with nuclear energy. He doesn't give anyone any space in his life no matter how much they care about him and is willing to drop people without a second thought because he doesn't even begin to consider that it would hurt them. He thinks everyone is masking 24/7 and he's just better at it than others. His brother doesn't speak to him. I want to strip him of his money and power so he has to rely only on himself for the first time in decades and he finds himself lacking. I want him in the car in front of me at the taco bell drive through holding up the line with a needlessly complicated order. I want him to have sympathy for the working class. I think his niece has been siphoning money from Macro Cosmos for the past three years and no one will ever know. Oleana could confess her love directly to his face and he wouldn't get it. If radiation poisoning existed in the pokémon world he'd be dead. I want to see him naked. All of his actions are carefully crafted and chosen to build the exact persona he wants to present and he just thinks that's normal. I think he's a scumbag and I'd love to see him realize that and work on bettering himself. I'm very normal about him.

Nah but for real, please please just just block people. Blocking people is self care, it’s not admitting defeat, it’s not being rude or vicious. Block people liberally, block people over petty things, block people who you don’t want to see the posts of on your dash ever again. Blocking people is better than pointless arguments and feeling yourself seethe. We’re just all strangers on a little blogging website and the world is on fire.
