in general I think this website has a serious problem about wanting to feel smugly superior about Literally Everything without spending even five seconds thinking about it first

#look #…. yeah

So, my spouse has been exploring his gender lately; he also just built himself a new laptop. Today he told me that he in an attempt to process some genderfeels through metaphor, he made a post on a trans forum along the lines of: "I'm a lifelong Windows user and I think I'm pretty good at it. I want to find out what Linux has to offer but I'm afraid I wouldn't be any good at it. And how do you choose the right Linux distro, anyway? Do you have to try them all?"

The responses, he said, were a mix of useful advice about feeling out your gender and useful advice about choosing a Linux distro.

I love trans people so much

I have been to this abandoned coal mining facility several times and am always drawn to this work of art. There is lots of broken glass which adds it’s own nuance to the buildings. It’s the art on the buildings that I enjoy seeing.

Ok guys, sorry for the double post but a few people pointed out that some of the sketches in my SilmDumps are really small, so here they are in all their glory (?). So, angsty/sleeping Maedhros (take your pic), baby Maedhros, short hair Maedhros, Celegorm and Huan, Curvo’s hands, angsty Maedhros take 2, modern lost Maglor, baby Ambarussa, sleeping Moryo and Maedhros’ hand because I’m a happy snail and I like Maedhros (after 5 Mae doodles I’m sure you might have guessed it)

And now I’m off to draw some sad stuff, probably. Stupid hormones.

I know this is a joke post, but I do want to add something not-jokey to it — the FTC is launching an inquiry into the ADHD drug shortages, and they’re accepting public comments until May 30, 2024.

I highly, HIGHLY encourage you to comment here if you’ve been affected by this. You don’t need to write an essay; even leaving a sentence or two about your experiences is impactful! These comments DO get read, and they’re an important part of how administrative agencies make rules and regulations.

when people with "adhd" use stimulants they are stealing resources from people who are just so tired and would like to be awake, people who want to lose a lot of weight at an unhealthy pace, and from people who literally need that medication to write long rants and essays about the world and such. was it worth it? thuis is why there's a shortage it's all thanks to people like you.

#now that I have an attention span again it’s time for policy advocacy #in conclusion fuck the kyriarchy

#I’d laugh about this but I have spent literal days trying to get my adderall prescription refilled #culminating in me needing to spend around three hours on public transit in order to get a medication that I cannot function without #and I have to do all this shit while off the thing that gives me an attention span! #fuck the scaremongering around ~overdiagnosis~ or the ~wrong~ people getting stimulants #you know who this gatekeeping harms most? disabled people

i feel like we as a fandom sleep on the fact that a majority of bg3 is a bunch of city people and foreigners being thrown into an unfamiliar environment and having to live there/navigate it for like a month LMAO

long treks through rain, wind, heavy sun

biting bugs

baths in freezing cold creek water

boots getting stuck in the mud

someone waking up with a snake in their tent

failed attempts at learning to hunt or locate food and everyone getting hangry

accidentally eating poisonous plants

slipping/tripping/falling over various terrains

walking through spider webs

being sticky and sweaty from the humidity

aching backs and feet

taking a wrong turn and getting lost

scary animal noises in the middle of the night

everyone smelling like mildew, B.O, and dirt (a.k.a ten cans of BOUNCE THAT ASS)

i just feel like there’s some potential here

#honestly I think Karlach’s having a blast because even though she’s not an expert on faerunian wildlife #even the shitty parts are SO much better than anything in Avernus #like wow the wasps here don’t inject you with venom when they sting you and scream in an unending chorus of agony? #holy shit she LOVES faerun wasps they’re her buddies now #Astarion is the reverse because while he will grudgingly concede that objectively getting flayed is more painful than getting blisters #he WILL pitch the biggest of fits if you make him walk another step today #meanwhile gale may have appointed himself camp cook but wyll now checks over every ingredient after The Mushroom Incident #wyll also explains to Lae’zel that they don’t need to appoint someone to stand guard over their food stores #and slaughter every animal that comes near #they can just store more of their supplies off the ground #bg3
