TIP:
This holiday season, if you know someone who likes house plants,
DON'T
get them a houseplant. DO NOT.
instead, get them a NICE, MEDIUM-LARGE, AESTHETIC, BOTTOM-DRAINING, INDOOR
POT.
that is what they want. that is what they dream of. ok? thats what will be most useful and appreciated. in fact, if you can, get them a CUTE MATCHING SET. OF POTS!!!! NOT PLANTS, POTS!!!!!!!!
they may be more excited initially about the plant. that is true. but a pot is a gift that they will go home and use to upsize one of their already beloved houseplants, and every time they look at it they will remember how much they appreciate you.
HOUSEPLANT:
- they already have so many
- needs to be watered
- takes up window space
- comes in a pot thats already too small, needs to be upsized, costing money
- can die
AESTHETIC POT
- lets them care for an existing plant they own
- they will be grateful every time they see it in their home
- does not take up window space not already occupied by a plant
- can be wrapped without dying or spilling dirt everywhere

"People don't really need antidepressants, we got on without antidepressants for thousands of years!" Yeah uh a lot more people were dying by suicide and a lot more people were alcoholic back then, Linda.

"I'm starting my skincare routine because I want to look 19 forever!"
Take it from someone who frequently gets mistaken for being between 17 and 19 years old despite actually being in their 30's: No you do fucking not

TIL, the residents of Cheran, Mexico armed themselves and kicked out the ruling cartel as well as every politician and policeman. It now functions as a legal self-governing indigenous community with a crime rate near 0%

Culturally connected Indigenous Mexicans every single fucking year: Please do not celebrate Día de Muertos if you are not Mexican. Many Día de Muertos "traditions" only date back to the 20th century and were literally appropriated from our own religious and cultural practices which are still mocked, ridiculed, oppressed, and demonized by white people (including white Mexicans) and Mexican mestizos. White Mexicans and Mexican mestizos can celebrate, but we ask that they please be aware of the privileges they hold over us and the role mestizaje played in the creation of the modern Día de Muertos celebration. As for the rest of you, we ask that you please learn what your own culture or ancestors do/did to honor their dead, especially if you are a gringo (non-Latine white USAmerican)
Annoying white people: Oh so you're saying that only Mexicans can honor their dead? Is that what you're saying? Hmm? So you're gatekeeping who gets to honor their deceased loved ones? Día de Muertos should be for everyone! You should be grateful that it's becoming so popular outside of the Mexican community

The same article of clothing in different sizes should be designed to look the same way on the wearer regardless of what size they are.
If you have a skirt that's supposed to be knee-length, but its only that long on a size tiny and starts inching up the thigh on anyone larger because you failed to account for the fact that you need more fabric to cover a bigger butt, then YOU ARE A BAD CLOTHING DESIGNER AND I HOPE YOU SEW YOUR OWN FINGERS TOGETHER
And don't come at me like "Uhm fat people deserve to wear mini-skirts too" because yeah no shit but this post isn't about that. This post is about the fact that I'm fucking tired of seeing a cute knee length skirt only to put it on myself and find its substantially shorter than it is on the model, because the model has no ass but I do, and the fabric that, on them, falls unimpeded to the backs of their knees, on me is being kept busy draping itself over the curve of my butt so that the hemline winds up sitting halfway up my thighs.
A knee length skirt should be knee length in all sizes, not knee for the skinny folk and thigh for the fat folk. An ankle length skirt should be ankle length in all sizes, not ankle length on a skinny and shin-length on a fat. A miniskirt should be a miniskirt on all sizes, not a mini on someone skinny and a goddamn belt on someone fat.

Headlines across eight years. Who you vote for really does matter. None of these headlines delve into the Boar's Head listeria outbreak because I can only post ten photos in one post. But the slaughter house self regulate headline? Yup, that's why.

Had a dream there was a new six hour long HBomberGuy video that starts with him tryingnto debunk Daniel Molloys novel "Interview With The Vampire" as a fun short video. After thirty minutes in and pulling a "so obviously vampires arent real" thing he launches into a three hour tangent bringing up all the weird historical details that are completely accurate when you accounted for stuff like Louis saying the wrong cemetary or church name
Four hours in he breaks down and says "okay so, this would all point to actual pop rock artist Lestat De Lioncourt being a real vampire, and Kate pointed out he was playing in my town a couple weeks from when we were covering all this. So I called and asked him for an interview to see if I couldnt get a better feel for what was going on"
He then proceeded to take out colored contact lenses and remove the gloves hed been wearing the whole video to reveal he was a vampire and the title card just popped up saying "GUESS WHAT FUCKING HAPPENED" and I woke up before the next two hours of video could play
