I don’t understand why so many of you are so obsessed with mpreg. And it’s never a C-section either, as if a baby would fit through the hip bones of a guy. Wish some of you would read a biology textbook.
Lol, Anon, I’m so glad your biological objection to mpreg is not the absence of a female reproductive system nor the presence of a male endocrine system that would actually make pregnancy difficult even with a transplanted uterus. No, you’re worried about the relatively minute skeletal sexual dimorphism of the human pelvis. It’s true that it’s been a while since I read a biology “textbook”, but you can read more up to date research here: Pelvic Inlet Shape Is Not as Dimorphic as Previously Suggested
Tl;dr: there are 4 pelvic forms, defined based on specific measurements back in the 19th century by racist, sexist anthropologists, who said only ‘abnormal’ women have an android pelvis. Surprise, surprise, it turns out their “android vs gynecoid” dichotomy is pretty much a misnomer. Most people have a ‘male pelvis’, and to add insult to injury, more men than women have a ‘female pelvis’ 😂
In addition to these differences, others claim that the inlet shape is generally android in males and gynecoid in females (Caldwell et al., 1934; Abitbol, 1996; Burden and Simons, 2004; Drake et al., 2005). However, the results of this study refute this claim because the android form was the most common shape for both males and females. In addition, the perceived typical female shape was actually more common among the males in this study. These results question the validity of defining a typical inlet shape for males and females.
Anyway, hope that helps you enjoy mpreg for its stark realism according to leading edge science.

While more has been done in recent years in the U.S. and other countries to increase accessibility for deaf people, these efforts often have focused on the use of professional sign language interpreters. But how do deaf people navigate the many informal spaces of their lives, with friends, family, and acquaintances who may be a mix of hearing and deaf people?

College Major Headcanons:
[Extra content for The Homo Economicus in Love - noritoshi kamo x reader, cute college au]
Yuuji Itadori - Media Studies, on a full sports scholarship even though he's not too interested in sports. He doesn't show up to practice that much but carries the team in tournaments. Not really very academically inclined but everyone he meets loves him so much that he's gotten a shit ton of internships and work experience just cuz he's nice to work with. Stays on campus dorms.
Nobara Kugisaki - Fashion Merchandising (yay legally blonde). Another one who's not very academically inclined but does great at the practical aspects of the job. Gets 40% off on tuition, but has some funds from her grandma. also gets money from her fashion blog, part-time jobs at fashion mags, and manages clothing for photoshoots on a freelance basis (if she commits she commits). Saves on residence by renting with Inumaki and Panda.
Megumi Fushiguro - Computer Science with a minor in Math. Full scholarship and bursary grant by the college due to his shitty financial conditions (orphaned and destitute at a young age). Prof Gojo is his legal guardian. grew up in and stays on campus dorms.
Maki Zenin - Star Athlete, literally training for the Olympics. Her degree is in Mass Communications but she doesn't actually have to attend classes cuz the Uni wants her to focus on sports. Disowned by her family. Full sports scholarship and occasionally gets sponsored by sportswear companies. Trying to go pro.
Yuuta Okkotsu - Sociology and Anthropolgy. He enjoys talking to and meeting people and works as a part-time Journalist for local news channels to bring attention to issues like poverty. Gets a bursary grant from the uni, gets paid for and is decently recognized for his journalism work. Both Geto and Gojo want to mentor him. He talks to himself when he's alone but that's a secret.
Toge Inumaki - Architectural Design, chose this degree just for the hell of it, is a solid B+ student. Has a YouTube gaming and ASMR channel with 200k followers but is struggling to monetize it profitably. Got in on legacy admissions but gets a sports scholarship of 30% (he's pretty good at athletics)
Panda - ???
Noritoshi Kamo - Economics and Finance, specializing in Private Equity and Investment Banking. he's the heir of the Kamo Conglomerate. Full legacy admission even though he graduated valedictorian of high school and is the captain of the Archery team.
Todo Aoi - Quantum Physics. he's literally the top student of every class he takes. he keeps taking random other classes from different majors based on his whims. his genius was recognised and personally mentored by Yuki Tsukumo, but is now undergoing formal college education for the certificate even though he already knows all this and more. he spends half the day in the gym and the other half streaming Takada-chan variety clips.
Mai Zenin - Economics and Finance, her family made her take it. good at academics even though she's not super into it. legacy admission.
Momo Nishimiya - Literature and Creative Writing. She posts regularly for a gender and sexuality magazine. loves nobara's blog.
Miwa Kasumi - Computer Science with a minor in Software Engineering. She just wanted a degree that would lead to a well-paying job. Cabinet Member of the Student Council. She vouched a lot for Mechamaru/Kokichi to get disability-friendly accommodation. she struggles a bit with academics but pulls through with A- all around. Kokichi/Mechamaru helps her if she finds something particularly difficult to understand. has her own campus residence but has practically moved in with Kokichi.
Arata Nitta - Health and Medicine, focusing on Emergency Care Medicine. he TAs for Prof Shoko's classes. his sister works in college admin office. has campus residence but mostly stays in the college affilitated hospital, bit of an over-worker.
Mechamaru/ Kokichi Muta - double major in Computer Science and Mechanical Engineering. Another top student of his classes. Found it a bit difficult to adjust to campus life at first (not enough disability accommodation) but with Miwa's help he got around. campus dorm with Miwa.
Professors!
Gojo Satoru - graduated from top Ivy colleges, has 5 PhDs, and wrote 1000 papers and books, and is the one of the most respected physicist in the world but insists on teaching Intro-level Physics and Math. drives a Bugatti to college. highly competitive relative grading. prescribes his own books for his class. expect a problem set every day after class. gives a lot of individual attention to students tho, n is very nice in general. he'll accept a late submission if u bring him sweets. his lockscreen is prof geto?
Geto Suguru - teaches one class named Ethics, Philosophy and Law every semester. doesn't answer questions over email, only during Office Hours. great at explaining difficult concepts, his course is the one students fight to get into and say "opened their eyes". has a devoted cult of worshipping students, voted student favorite every year. his adopted daughters took a gap year to travel abroad and he talks about them in class. he always has sweets in his pockets?
Utahime Iori - teaches modules on Economics, Politics and Philosophy courses. great teacher, very clear explanations, bumps up the grading slightly (absolute grading) and is very accommodating as a prof. hates getting emails at night tho.
Shoko Ieiri - Shitty ass prof tbh but everyone takes her class cuz she gives everyone an A. teaches Surgical Anatomy. focuses on practical experience rather than theory. she has a no attendance policy and takes few very exams or assignments.
Yuki Tsukomo - Visiting Faculty, takes one super high level class Quantum Physical Theory one semester and comes back after 4 years. Independent researcher funded by the uni.

Wanted to use this Twitter thread of 2 annoying White pple that started from a Youtuber getting called out for appropriating the W*nd*go as a jumping off point. It's utterly frustrating to me that people of colour still have to educate White pple on cultural appropriation becos they refuse to listen. I simply cannot understand why White people just feel so entitled to non-White cultures and always try to justify it as cultural appreciation, and when we try to put our foot down, White people will just accuse us of gatekeeping. And I havent even gotten to the icky anthropolgy vibes of the tweets.
I'm so sick and tired of White people taking Black and Brown cultures, folklores and mythologies, misunderstanding them, watering it down, and then commodifying the bastardized form of it. Is nothing sacred, nothing safe?
(Note: of course thejamplan is a White Canadian woman 🙄)
I would definitely like to hear more from anyone on this site on the subject of cultural appropriation based on their experiences.

i want more of the rut au! like insta edits or why people say like she’s like barbie and ruts like ken ya know…
then for the cutter sister one maybe something with her and cut over the summer
then for the boldy sis x luke her reaction to like playoffs or their summer so far
for the yen hughes x jj like a lake house summer insta edit
okay i'm going to use this post to answer the questions about rutger and reader. i will post the other stuff separately :)
why do they call reader "barbie"?
okay so barbie dolls are supposed to, in theory, show girls that they can do anything/be anything. in sense, this is reader for this au. she is double majoring in history and anthropolgy with the intentions of becoming an archaeologist. at the same time, she plays softball for northwestern univeristy (idk what postion, thinking either catcher or outfield). so she defintely has a lot on her plate. but the whole "barbie" thing was started by one of rutger's friends a joke because she also loves shopping, doing makeup, and getting her hair/nails done. overtime though, the nickname started to take on a more "she can do anything" tune.
why is rutger "ken"?
everybody calls rutger "ken" because reader is barbie. at the same time, in the barbie life in the dreamhouse show, ken does anything for barbie, and rutger is the same way. he'd walk through fire for her if she asked him too. he's also in complete awe of reader the same way ken is in complete awe of barbie
i really hope this makes sense lol

This was originally vagueblogging about the Neurovista case, which like many posts got misrepresented on Tumblr as "the cyberpunk dystopia is here" rather than "a trial for a experimental implant didn't end up being worth the resources, and the 3-year battery in the implant meant it had to be removed" (This is just a fact about trade-offs, not about capitalism; Even in a world with fully publicly funded medical research, you are still sometimes going to find something that helps someone but isn't as good a use of resources as something else). I have no idea where leftistcrap got the line about them repo'ing the implant to resell, but it caused everyone else to pattern-match to Repo! The Genetic Opera instead of asking basic questions like "Sell to who?" and "Wouldn't the cost of surgery be more than the value of the implant?".
More specifically: One of the responses to this, which is incredibly common whenever one of these posts goes around, was "we need the humanities because otherwise we will get unethical STEM types". This is, to be frank, dumb, because large parts of the most unethical people had majors in English or History or Sociology and then went on to pass horrid laws. Ted Cruz got a degree in Public Policy, then went on to become Ted Cruz. Ron DeSantis got his History Degree Magna Cum Laude, yet that did not stop him from trying to become America's Next Top Fascist.
Ultimately, teaching classes on ethics is not going to be anywhere near as good for getting better outcomes as actual laws regulating or incentivizing good conduct; That's what the police thing is a metaphor for.
We need to fund the humanities so we have better ethics, unlike all those engineers and scientists in Congress.
