Some very eloquent notes on violence as a necessity for resistance.

There is no paradox of tolerance, because tolerance is not a matter of ethics. It's a peace treaty - an agreement that only covers the people who abide by its rules.

And for cis white guys who are always trying to figure out how to be an ally without talking over marginalized people, without reshaping the issue to be all about you - this guy shows how.

His tactics don't work for marginalized people. They can't get away with that.

favourite rpg trope is the merchants in incredibly hostile environments. we are at the evil curse mountain and youre just selling me items normal style

their union won’t let me fuck with them <|:^(

I chose Bludgeoning, because I figured that would mean I'd be immune to damage from falling. I don't plan on getting into fights anytime soon, but It'd be cool to be able to jump off really high things safely, y'know?

But then I had a niggling doubt, so I looked it up and at least for Pathfinder, it doesn't say anything about fall damage being bludgeoning damage. Now if I want to get anything cool out of my new immunity I'm going to have to provoke people into hitting me with baseball bats. :(

I said bludgeoning, and then I'm going to be the world's best boxer.

Fire would be impressive and just fun. I enjoy the aesthetic of getting to dance in actual flames and I think I deserve that. Also just handy to be able to grab things out of campfires and move burning logs with my bare hands. (And if it's burns even better because guess who's gonna be bare handing the cast iron pan from now on!)

A MOUSE BAR DURING PROHIBITION WOULD BE CALLED A SQUEAKEASY!!!

this came to me in a vision btw. the vision was of a little mouse bartender yelling, "cheese it! it's the cops!" and all the little mice flipping the bar and turning it into a fromagerie.

i used to work for a nature center and we would constantly have wild owls come and call out to the owls in their cages and try to 1.) get them to follow them or 2.) they were looking for a mate

in the spirit of this post: when you live in areas with wild horses, the number one culprit for horse theft is actually other horses, because the young stallions that get chased out of the herd wanna start their own, and oh, look, look at all those cute mares in just,,,,a fenced off grassy area,,,how easy would it be to lure them over the fence,,,like some four-legged yodeling pied piper,,,

i think about this a lot

This is so cute wtf

Social animals will see another animal amd be like: Is anyone going to befriend this? And then not wait for an answer.

Humans are, delightfully, nowhere near the only ones who do this.

Don’t give me one-sided unrequited love, give me two-sided unwanted love. Both sides are deeply in love with the other and both sides are like ‘fuck, really?? them??? really?’

we oc based artists stick together

So fucking real.

ed zitron, a tech beat reporter, wrote an article about a recent paper that came out from goldman-sachs calling AI, in nicer terms, a grift. it is a really interesting article; hearing criticism from people who are not ignorant of the tech and have no reason to mince words is refreshing. it also brings up points and asks the right questions:

ADHD is so funny it's like I diagnose you with lazy inconsiderate fuckup disease. And it's incurable. Here's meth

My first thought was, "Man, I felt this in my bones." Then I slapped my forehead for the accidental pun.

Reblog if you were born in the 1900's.

My beef with the premise behind "The Purge" is that it's not laws stopping people from killing each other in the streets - it's kinda just the default human experience to not want to hurt anyone. We succeeded as a species because we're generally decent at getting along with each other. The average, well-adjusted human has no desire to inflict undeserved harm.

We do, however, hate rules, so we'd probably still get a little wild in less harmful ways.

What made me laugh most is that the post just days "sponsored by parmesean cheese." Not a cheese brand. Parmesean itself as an entity and business.

Big Parma, if you will.

She is actually literally sponsored by big Parma

1) This makes me incredibly pleased. 😆

2) If I'm gonna be under the thumb of any corporate conglomerate I'd choose it to be big Parma.

Me, too! And you can't convince me otherwise.
