my absolute favourite genre of transphobic propaganda is when the caption is like “look at this poor, confused little girl who was forced to mutilate herself :(” and the picture is just the hottest man you’ve ever seen in your life with a full beard and a body that would make thor weak at the knees

I'm sorry but the irony of Nico calling Max unprofessional is sending me so bad like sir there's an entire garage full of people, who were literally in the trenches trying to survive the Brocedes fallout while just doing their jobs, who might have a few things to say about your (& Lewis') level of professionalism at that time 😭✋️

Nanami ver of bsf upstaging bf?? ❤️

listen… i meant what i said when nanami is just as bad, if not worse when it comes to driving your boyfriend away/upstaging him... maybe his tact makes him a better man than satoru, but you could also argue that it doesn’t; you could argue that kento is is only as respectful as necessary and consciously pushes boundaries, whereas satoru just does!! he just IS!! satoru IS overbearing and knows no consequence, but kento is not and he is very aware that evert action has a consequence, but he weighs it, determines it’s worth it, or—arguably worse—determines that the threat of your boyfriend getting mad or figuring him out isn’t high enough. kento is premeditated murder, he is going to drive your boyfriend so insane, to a place where he fully believes he cannot compete where he cannot compares, and kento will not feel bad about it. so, i rest my case, vice president of the not shit club, and their children are NO better!! 

also, having been friends with kento sets a bar that your past and/or current boyfriend must quickly learn to meet, and more often than not, they don’t even come close. why go on random dating-app dates when kento sends food to your house just because he had an inkling you were sad (you texted him in a certain way that tipped him off). dates meeting you halfway at a restaurant/bar isn’t nearly as flattering when kento drives an hour in heavy rain and traffic after work to pick you up, just to make good on seeing a movie you told him you were excited about. expensive dinner dates and bar hopping becomes mundane when that’s the normal for you and kento, when he regularly takes you out to dinner, if not weekly, then at least bi-weekly, because he’s intentional about your friendship and having time to spend and catch-up with each other in between busy work days. it’s hard to be impressed with a boyfriend when your best-friend takes you on his twice-yearly vacations and pays for everything, citing that even though getting a proper vacation is hard, he loves the time spent with you, so it’s all worth it. kento doesn’t even have to wait for some guy to become your boyfriend, he puts any potential partners out of the running by the standards he’s already set for you.

I keep seeing Wei Wuxian slander (libel?) And I won't stand for it. Wei Wuxian is not a bad cook. He just happens to cook food that is very spicy because that's how he likes it. Other people who like spicy food would probably also like it, and people who are not used to spicy food will not. This does not make him a bad cook, this just makes his food toxic to people like Lan Wangji (and me)

A mother's word for word transcription of the imaginary phone call her four-year-old made to Santa Claus in 1911.

(source: The Harbor Beach Times, December 22, 1911.)

Through some outrageous case of serendipity I found a recording of another phone call this same child made 60 years later. Though I have to say his choice of conversational partner is a definite downgrade from the first call.

I wish the USA didn't make itself the center of the world (via imperialist bullying).

I wish I didn't have to care what y'all did to each other.

I wish I didn't have to worry about what your good ol fascist orange man was going to export to my shores and how his cronies would try to do to destroy my country.

I wish I could look at these results and think what I did when the president of Argentina was elected ("Well, that's gonna suck for them for the next four years") and keep on living and fighting to change my country.

BUT NO!

Y'all just have to fuck everything up for the rest of us.

Best Day since 2022: Stocks rallied sharply on Wednesday, with major benchmarks hitting record highs, as Donald Trump won the 2024 presidential election.

"more stimulus to the U.S. economy and benefit risk assets. … During the 2016 election, the S&P 500 Index gained nearly 5% from the day before the presidential election through the end of the year in what became known as the Trump rally. We expect a similar trend could play out this time around, too,” Marc Pinto, head of Americas equities at Janus Henderson Investors, said in a note.

Stock market news for Nov. 6, 2024

The Dow Jones Industrial Average surged 1,508.05 points, or 3.57%, to a record close of 43,729.93. The last time the blue-chip Dow jumped more than 1,000 points in a single day was in November 2022.

The S&P 500 also hit an all-time high, popping 2.53% to 5,929.04. The Nasdaq Composite climbed 2.95% to a record of its own of 18,983.47.

Bitcoin, which could benefit from relaxed regulation, soared to an all-time high and topped $76,000. The dollar index climbed to its highest level since July on the belief that Trump’s proposed tariffs against major U.S. trading partners would boost the greenback.

I will be the first to admit I'm not the best at drawing animal or furry characters, but I wanted to get something scribbled down in my Non-Goof style, anyway. Plus, I've been enjoying the many reference pages folks were posting of their own designs for the Lamb and Narinder, so, uh. Here's mine, I guess! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

do not comment on how long narinder's tail is or i swear to the lamb i will make it even longer next time >:]

The siblings <3

I like to think that Susato loved the Herlock Sholmes Books so much she’d try to get Kazuma to do the different poses with her.

Marlene: boys are so stupid.

Dorcas: any reason in particular or you're just stating the obvious?

Marlene: talking about how James and Regulus are obviously in love with each other and do nothing about it.

Pandora: true, Reg talks a lot about Potter.

Dorcas: Barty and Evan aren't much better. The sexual tension is obvious to everyone but them.

Pandora: how about we free two birds with one key? We get all of them to play a game and sabotage it to make them confess their feelings!

Marlene: did you mean kill two birds with one stone?

Pandora: no! I don't want to kill them! 🥺

Dorcas: aww poor baby.

Marlene: *pouts*

Dorcas: you also my baby, love. Different kind. *kiss*

Marlene: *smiles satisfied*

Dorcas: but i think that's a great idea, Dora!

Marlene: scheming time!
