a post-doc was doing a guest seminar at my institute and at the beginning of his presentation he was explaining why he chose birds for his evolutionary analysis - so he said "well first of all, because birds are the best and most interesting animals and it's fun to study them" and a few professors in the room gave him a very serious nod

person who has only watched one anime: what i really love about dungeon meshi is how it subverts our expectations of a typical anime by not sexualising women and having a good plot!

For my fellow ocd-sufferers, especially those with moral ocd who feel obligated to reblog EVERYTHING right now:

-you don't have to reblog everything

-you can take breaks

-you not reblogging a post does not mean you've harmed someone. You are not harming anyone by not reblogging a post, I promise you.

This isn't about excusing inaction, it's about recognizing that having ocd makes it difficult to realize what's actually helping versus what's a compulsive spiral.

Your ability to do good does not hinge on how much you reblog things. Educating yourself, donating when you can afford to, and calling your representatives helps a lot more than doomscrolling.

me: this is a background character who's in one scene, has two lines, and is completely irrelevant to the rest of the story. i am going to stop obsessing over what to name him and use the random name generator on behindthename.com. i am going to accept the first thing it gives me and move the fuck on.
