The Collection is of images, words and ideas that I come across in my travels and decide to share.
They are ideas which catch at my mind and my heart and inspire me and my writings or are things which I feel passionately about.
I share those things which I find inspiring or that I feel are important to be heard or seen as well as some things which I simply enjoy. Some things may be funny, some may be serious, and some may be completely random with topics ranging from the mundane to the fantastic.
A good amount is fandom related...
it’s difficult to be a dom with anarchist leanings.
my sub will be like “i have to tell you something… i broke a rule. i’ll accept whatever punishment you see fit.” and i’m like. rise up comrade you have nothing to lose but your padded restraints. no doms no masters. oh you want me to spank you. yeah i can do that.
So I’ve spoken before about how I used to be staff on a fairly popular discord server specifically for kink and specifically specifically for gay man kink.
It was a puppy server. And puppies are largely cis men, though we had a strict “all puppies are good puppies” rule and refused to gender-lock or sex-lock people out of enjoying themselves.
Now. I’m not really into this particular kink. I was hired to do art, and because a good friend of mine was good friends with the server owner/admin. But I still hung out with the users and got to make some mod choices because I was staff.
Do you know how many times I did effectively this? Just immediately start a puppy riot? One of the more toxic doms would be trying to flex or be bugging one of the younger members and I’d post something like ✊ rise up comrades it is time!!! Power to the pups!!! No treats no tail wags!!! ✊ and immediately the server would be an explosion of horny men in dog masks barking in text at the Asshole Dom who Did Not Realize that I was online and would do that.
Anyway the server owner thought it was hysterical and would participate in the Puppy Riots and deliberately kept me on staff because, and I quote, he liked that I would throw the server into literal anarchy mode in order to shut up the assholes and thus all the assholes would be quiet if they knew I was around.
They’re going to cap the cost of insulin for unisured people to $35 for a month’s supply. If you don’t have insurance, this is the website to see what prescribed insulins are approved and to get the discount card.
This is because of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, and has nothing to do with the goodwill of Eli Lilly. This is because of Biden and the Democrats. Who you elect matters.
I think one of the most damaging ideologies towards children is the conviction that having children isn’t a calling but a moral obligation.
Not to be a crazy radical or anything, but children deserve to be deeply wanted by their parents.
Children shouldn’t be a “stage” in life that everyone is obligated to fulfill; childrearing is not for everyone. More importantly, children shouldn’t be state-enforced punishments for “irresponsible” sexual behavior.
Children are people with thoughts and feelings just like the rest of us. They are conscious of the way people treat them. And they can certainly tell when they are unwanted and/or resented.
[ID: tumblr tags. they are: #reblog #i also dont think its enough to want a child. i think you need to want a teenager and an adult too #my mom wanted a baby. when i was too old to pronounce spaghetti wrong and let her put me in church dresses she was done with me #my dad wanted a person. he wanted a baby a child a tween a teen and an adult #my dad wanted to watch a person happen. which was different. /end ID.]
Two trains collided head on in Greece today. More than 30 people are dead, dozens more are injured. The national train company was sold off to an Italian company(FSI TRENITALIA) by the previous government. The Greek trains and railways have been worked manually for at least 20 years if not more and the union has been reporting the issue and striking only for them to be fired, ignored and mistreated. The driver was heard saying “Let’s go and whatever happens happens”. The government is fully shifting the blame on the workers, who did not even have a basic GPS system to track the trains let alone anything else. The lights don’t work. The train tracks change directions manually. The trains were headed towards each other for 12 minutes. People died because the money that was supposed to go to modernise the rail system was used for bribes.
Caption: [Okay so, I do this all the time. Not on purpose it’s just like, I assume that people know? And (laughing) one time, a coworker, Hi (name can’t hear), helped me while I was recovering from nipple reconstruction surgery. (laughing) Turns out, that she didn’t know that I’m trans!? (laughing) She just thought I wanted new nipples!]
I sent a letter today - something I haven’t done for years
It’s full of plastic bread clips
It’s for Science
At the risk of loosing some mystery, I think I should add some context:
There’s this website-I mean, scientific organization called the Holotypic Occlupanid Reasurch Group.
They are a group of abiologists who study and classify Bread clips.
I found a species that has not yet been described:
Yay for citizen science 👍
wtf?
Update:
Apparently HORG is widely appreciated by pediatricians since knowing exactly what kind of Occlupanid a child may have swallowed makes removing it safely much easier
IIRC this is actually part of the reason HORG was started. A man swallowed a breadclip and the clip closed around part of his tissue linings (in his intestines I think?). The specific shape and flexibility of the clip were significant determining factors in the removal process, as some bread clips have spikes and prongs that would have made extraction more complicated. They started the taxonomy so they could work out extraction techniques for each type.
are you fucking kidding me occlu like oculus or close and panid like bread. its a fancy word for breadcloser
At first I thought this was just your standard shit post, but I have gained knowledge now.
the thing about william shatner being pissed about the concept of bi!kirk is so funny to me because like. bill this is your fault. you were the one who looked at leonard nimoy like you wanted to eat him. you did that
i’ve seen a lot of really messed up images in my time on the internet, weird fetish shit, even a few IRL gore images but nothing. NOTHING evokes such a deep seated, gut wrenching fear in me like this image of the fucking water slide from Action Park with the loop in it
