"my child is fine" "ma'am, your child is coarse"

Trans girls, here’s your reminder that there is a whole market of push up and padded bras and shape wear and everything created for and marketed to cis women. Don’t be embarrassed about wearing the same shit they wear to get the body shape you want and to feel attractive

There are three main types of stroopwafels.

Igneous, the most common, are formed by melting a sticky filling and pouring it between two waffles.

Sedimentary stroopwafels are commonly encountered at the bottom of a large container of igneous stroopwafels.

The rarest form is the metamorphic stroopwafel, formed by subjecting igneous and/or sedimentary stroopwafels to extremes of heat and pressure until they fuse together.

Say what you will, but what is really the most optimistic thing about TNG, more so than the poverty-less and money-less utopia, is when somebody goes to the captain and says "this weird, unbelievable thing happened to me" and they believe them.

Reg says he sees a creature in the transporter beam and rather than saying "Reg, you well-known anxiety haver, you're imagining things!", they take the transporter apart, twice, to find out.

Beverly says she hears voices at night and has an overwhelming sense of deja-vu, and the captain doesn't say, "my, what an overactive imagination you have! Sleep more and do yoga!", he instructs the crew to sweep the entire ship with sensors, from top to bottom and starboard to port, until they've figured it out.

THAT is a world I'd like to live in.

Do not go gentle into that good crab.

Every gender eventually evolves to crab.

"Refusal to believe until proof is given is a rational position; denial of all outside of our own limited experience is absurd."

@BlackAzizAnansi I caught several severe colds on the lead up to COVID (sometimes I think the last one was COVID) and then I caught literally nothing for two years. But, you know, got to get back into the office for that synergy and all that.

Good night, New Cyberia! And remember.. keep circulating the tapes! ​​ 🏴‍☠️
