Arachnids/bugs usually don't bother me but those things are my personal nightmare
After spending most of a year always on the ground my amblipygid finally learned how to be on the wall. I think they might've been raised entirely without vertical climbing surfaces before I got them :(
What I'm using as a wall is one of several chunks of old wooden barricade that were lying in the woods near us
lowest stakes website for people to be mad at you on bc nobody can drive or make phone calls or come up with insults that dont read like slam poetry from a presbyterian
Happy pride month!! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ Sorry about not posting for so long! Been dealing with just general health and mental health stuff, but I really didn’t want to miss doing my annual toothless pride posts so here it is :)
Might not be posting as frequently as I used to here but there’ll probably be some scattered art here and there when I feel like making some
The flags in order from top to bottom: Rainbow, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Pansexual, Trans, Non Binary, Asexual, Aromantic, Genderfluid
I’ve also added all of these to my redbubble as prints and such, you can find them in the toothless pride collection there :)
i love in fantasy when its like “king galamir the mighty golden eagle and his most trusted advisor who would never betray him, gruelworm bloodeye the treacherous”
I need a 2nd read so bad there's so much stuff I missed
new favorite thing I noticed on my re-read of Harrow the Ninth: every time Gideon is screaming against the walls of Harrow's skull that it's called a 'pommel'. It's a fucking pommel, Harrow. You know all this doctor skeleton MD shit, but not that it's called a POMMEL???
Update: got no response so I uploaded the assignment and got full marks and hour later, gotta love online classes
So as an aroace person taking a psych class I have an assignment that requires answering a survey about attachment and close relationships. All the questions refer to romantic partners. Is my best bet to answer everything with "neither agree or disagree"?
At the grocery store, they have Coke-flavoured Oreos, and Oreo-flavoured Coke. This cross-pollination of brands has gone too far. Even though the pious talking-heads at CNN call me a brand-mixing bigot, I just want to eat one food product at a time.
A couple years ago, when I worked in the food industry, we talked about stuff like this. We dreaded stuff like this. Someone's CEO's toddler would get a little froggy and decide to ask for a peanut-butter-and-Cool-Ranch-Doritos sandwich for breakfast.
Turns out that flavour combination is shockingly good, at least the first time you eat it. The CEO would rush it into production, damn the torpedoes, and take a huge bath on the fact that nobody wanted to eat two of them. Who felt the consequences of that loss? Us little folks, who would be rewarded with a much smaller bonus cheque in exchange for our sorcery in the fields of making food that should not have been made.
It gets even worse when two big brands collide. Suddenly you've got twice as many CEOs getting their egos caught up in the whole deal. Who comes first on the label? Maybe both of us release our own crazy product, build hype for the other guy's project. I'm here to tell you that it all ends in tears, just like that one summer vacation where you hung out with your buddy every day, until you were suddenly no longer buddies anymore. Except that it cost half a billion dollars for you to be buddies, and the grocery stores are tired of having to throw out unsold Rainbow Chips Ahoy bologna every week.
Here's my advice to the food people. Don't try to make new things. Instead, sell us the same old things, but make them either smaller or larger. Who wouldn't want to eat an Oreo the size of their head? Or a very tiny scale model of a pizza bagel? It's stuff we already like, but it seems like we're standing closer or farther away from it. The ape brain reels at this concept, which translates into spending money to resolve the discomfort.
That one's free. The next time you assholes come over here asking for product advice, it's going to cost you: I will insist that you bring back taco-flavoured ice cream.
