I keep on thinking 'man people are staring at me, are they being homophobic or...?' and then I remember I have this pattern shaved into my legs

🔪 so grab a plate, have a taste, 这口味让我陶醉! i'm still preying on a butcher's vein—

[ID: a piece of dungeon meshi fanart. on the left are five panels showing a closeup of a character's eye with the hourglass-shaped pupil of the demon: from top to bottom they are the winged lion, mithrun, thistle, marcille & laios. the background, extending to the right, is abstract veins, intestines, feathers & checkerboards. text above, lyrics from butcher vanity - flavor foley, reads:

"The slaughter's mine Oh, blood and viscera divine Preserved and primed Each muscle divvied up to dine And in the high, 我存在 Tasting 血淋淋的爱 I'll devour all of you in time" End ID.]

every time someone makes a post about how you need to accept people who are weird some genius in the reblogs is always like "ooohhhh well what about the BAD kind of weird should we embrace those Phreaques (tm) with open arms too?" personally i think that if someone's behavior is truly bad then you should be able to come up with a reason for why you think that other than "it's weird." things like abuse and bigotry are not bad because they're "weird," they are bad because they harm and dehumanize other people. in fact, many of these things are systematically enabled as a feature of status quo and not a bug. it is almost like "normal" does not equate to morally correct and adhering to standards of normalcy shouldn't be treated as the metric by which you determine someone's value as a person and that is what people are getting at when they say you need to accept weirdos and not that you have to passively condone everything outside of your moral compass even at its worse and the very fact you are quick to believe the latter is actually what's being implied instead should warrant serious self reflection in terms of how you look at people you believe aren't "normal." or something

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

[ID: Translator's note reading "Page 16: Yeah, the Japanese literally used homo, short for homosexual. As a side note, in Japanese, the word for friends is "tomodachi." My Japanese teacher in college told me they would call their gay friends "homodachi." I dunno, I found it amusing.]

homodachi...

this is assuming its on art you normally wouldn't jump to reblog. i myself only rb stuff i really really like so .

The 'rude/demanding' tone would be stuff along the lines of "if you like but don't reblog I'll [threat]" which i see surprisingly often, both serious and more silly

#seconding the addition. makes me mad #like i get it. but also people don't owe it to you #same way i don't reblog guilt trippy politics posts #even if i otherwise agree. it's on principle

It was strange to me to learn that hairdressers don't conceptualize haircuts as a process of reducing each individual hair on one's head to a specific length and digital artists rarely touch up someone's graduation portrait by changing the values of one pixel at a time. These are the most precise methods of achieving the desired result, so I reasoned that the most elite practitioners of these disciplines would use them...

There's no punchline, or even a moral to this, I just... it's odd, no? Even the best of the best rely on heuristics as a way to achieve "perfeft" results???? Yeah? yeah send post sure
