I'D LIKE TO HEAR ABT MILLIPEDES .... 👀

I love millis so so much, I want to keep some as pets one day :0 probably an American giant millipede and maybe one or two ivory millipedes, they're both native where I am!

My favorite milli, tho, is Apheloria virginiensis, for their vibrant yellow and pink stripes and cream bellies!! They're so pretty :3

tell me abt your favorite millipedes or cool facts you have :D

HELLO!! Apheloria virginiensis really are pretty!!, however, my favourite as to be Archispirostreptus gigas, Otherwise known as the Giant African Millipede! I find them really interesting. Also, they have an impressive size!

I’m going to be calling Archispirostreptus gigas GAM for short as that’s easier to say. GAM are actually relatively easy to care for! They require a heat range of 20-24°C or 98-75°F.

Diet!

One thing to note about GAM is they’re scavengers! They commonly feast on damp and decaying or rotting wood, manure, grass clippings, and decaying fruits. In captivity, a large part of their diet consists of leaf litter and quality millipede substrate. Supplemented with millipede safe fruit and veggies ofcourse! As all millipedes do, GAM require calcium. This calcium should be either given to them by supplementing their soil, or providing cuttlefish bone for them to nibble on over time.

EXTRA !!!

• Millipedes don't have eyes; they use a pair of antennae to sense what's around them!

• GAM are small, and usually confident with handling. However, you should still be careful with holding and handling small animals!

• GAM will die if their soil becomes dry. They require damp soil as that’s how they drink! They also benefit from a small shallow water bowl. Emphasis on small & shallow!

• GAM can live up to 10 years! It’s a big commitment, but worth it in my eyes.

• Their soil must be deep enough for them to fully submerge themselves to molt.

• The body of the giant African millipede has 40 or more body segments, with four legs (two pairs) per individual segment. Each time a GAM molts, it adds one body segment with four legs!

• however being small compared to other things, they’re the largest millipede species alive. They can grow to 1 foot long!

Thank you for listening to my info dump!

I do have to wonder exactly what the fuck is up with centipedes and Where Do They Come From??? I got jumpscared by another long ass centipede yesterday hiding in the corner in the bathroom AGAIN. And like... Where and How. Did you come from the ceiling? (hopefully not cuz ill be having a new fear during baths then). Did you come from the drain? Which adds a new question cuz that thing is just pipe, dirty water. There's no hole at the sides?????? Where do those centipedes come from bro why do they always appear in our bathroom???

#aria rants #millipedes i understand and do the centipedes come from where the millipedes appear at??? #which is actually behind the faucet. theres lil holes in the wall behind the faucet where millipedes sometimes come out of #and i dont mind those guys theyre harmless lil critters but centipedes are scary with a painful bite id rather not #i think it does make sense if those centipedes come from the hole in the wall too but why is it that whenever i see em #those guys are always nearby the drain???? they even pop outta the holes of that drain! like dude... youre gonna give me trypophobia #i look at that drain fearing that another centipede gonna pop outta it again. its happened twice now and i fear for the 3rd #also there were 2 instances of baby centipedes in the toilet just swimming drowning inside there #at first i was like: oh maybe my mom put that there #but it happened the 2nd time and my mom had not yet used the bathroom at all and im just: ??? how? #it was also the confirmation i needed that centipedes can in fact drown i just accepted that the ones in the bathroom couldnt #cuz they kept appearing outta the drain like some sorta threatening creepy crawly force that cant be stopped by the water

hi wanna listen to my short rant about creature-fied subspace and what species he would be represented as

wasn't a question

okokok so ik most people like representing subspace as a scorpion [which i see working completely cmon his whole thing is poison] but imagine him as a shocking pink dragon millipede ,,,

LOOK AT IT . LOOK .

to add to the subspace part of this stupid bug just know that it shoots HYDROGEN CYANIDE IN SELF DEFENSE .

#im in love with this bug you have no idea ... ........ #i did a whole research essay on this millipede and got hyperfixed on phighting much after #then i realized how fitting it was for him ... #baphobabbles #phighting! #subspace phighting

Chapter Ten: Thank You For The Venom Pt. 3

 “Now, this was about I would say eighteen years ago, roughly when Freddy was ten. The household was still very much a functioning generational home, so there were a lot of relatives living there at the time. One of them living there was Oscar. Oscar had married into the family many years ago to Joel’s aunt and at first, Oscar was alright, quiet, but alright.” Dolly began as Envy perked a bit at the name. “Right, you mentioned this Oscar back in the museum.” Envy commented, hoping this guy turned out to be a serial killer or something neat like that. “One and the same, I was approached by Oscar about two or three weeks before the incident happened. He had wanted to draw my blood, promising me that he’d figure out what I am if Oscar were allowed to do it. I’ll admit that it was pure naivety on my end, I had always wanted to know what I was, so I agreed to the blood withdrawal.” Dolly paused a bit to think on how to better explain the next part.

 “I think it would be necessary to mention this one, Freddy had a pet hamster at the time. We couldn’t get a dog since we have a lot of fragile items that have been around for a very long time, so Freddy was given this hamster instead. He loved and adored this hamster very much. Of course, unfortunately, hamsters have incredibly short lifespans and Freddy’s hamster was starting to reach the conclusion of its life. Apparently, Oscar was a very opportunistic little shit and convinced Freddy to give his hamster over to Oscar.” Dolly looked over to Envy, who for a change was curious about where the story was going.

 “Freddy was hopeful for the first three days that Oscar would make his hamster feel better and recover, but when a week had passed without any words about that hamster, Freddy started getting depressed. I had Freddy in the kitchen with me on that day, figuring that an easy cooking lesson would help to take his mind off the hamster. Oscar, though, figured that particular day was an excellent day to show what he had discovered to the rest of the family. You know what that lying bastard did? He used my blood and injected it into the hamster.” Dolly said as Envy responded almost immediately after the last part. “Please tell me that the hamster exploded from it.” Envy was hoping for violence at this point as the story was interesting enough. “Unfortunately no, though that would’ve been a far kinder fate for the hamster. No, the hamster ended up mutating into this millipede like monstrosity after being injected. The mutation, however, caused Oscar to pretty much snap and lose all sort of touches with reality. He was ranting about how this would be the next step in human evolution, making death a relic of the past, and the lovely little remark of wanting to sell me off to the government. This of course sparked a full on fist fight from Joel, who inadvertently knocked over the container for the hamster and let it loose into the household.” Dolly explained, Envy finally went silent at the outcome.

 “I’ll never forget Freddy’s face when he saw what happened to the hamster as it broke into the kitchen. I guess it was the combination of the trauma that was inflicted on Freddy and the threat of selling me out, but Joel took Oscar out to the skeletonization room and let the acid take care of the rest. As for the hamster, that one escaped into the walls and had been living there ever since. Reasonably, a massive amount of family members didn’t want to live in a home with a wall monster and began moving out shortly after. It simply just dwindled from there on until it was just Joel and his small family along with Oscar’s skeleton.” Dolly concluded, allowing some time for Envy to formulate a response.

 “Wait, you’re telling me that our blood could do something like that?” Envy asked, surprised that apparently homunculi have mutagenic blood. “I’m not sure to be fair, but, my blood was used to make Ernest and Dorian, so I don’t think it's entirely mutagenic.” Dolly explained as Dorian gave a smile at that part. “Looks like I’ll have to test Lust, Gluttony, and my own blood then, I’m fully curious now. I’m sure I can get some lab rats if I tell Dante it's for a new disease.” Envy said, completely glossing over the fact Dorian and Ernest were made with Dolly’s blood.

 “Good to see you’re not freaking out over that factor.” Dolly remarked, sort’ve surprised that Envy was going to test this theory out and wasn’t questioning the Dorian tid bit.

 “And it sounds like we’re reaching an end to the elevator ride, you’ll be able to see the city soon from here.” Envy said as they got Dolly to look over to where the cityscape would be visible.

 “....Looks like no electricity and basic heating will be the next ones to be added to the rules…” Dolly said as the view of the underground city came into view. Confused, Envy looked out to the city and was flabbergasted at what they saw. Before, the city had been made of stone, but now, it was the same carbon structure that made up Greed’s ultimate armor. Dante had clearly stopped using her rotting brain at this point, the city was now more inhospitable than before with various lung diseases awaiting those who lived down there for too long. Dolly was, likewise, concerned about the sudden development and the fact now drinking water down here would be a potential health hazard. There was no way the homunculi could live down in the underground like this as the elevator completed its descent down into the workers right violation. Immediately, Envy left the elevator as Dolly hesitantly followed them out, clutching the Dorian in a backpack. “Envy, where are we going?” Dolly asked as she grew more concerned with how long they’re both going to be staying down below. “Our home, I’m going to gather Lust’s, Gluttony’s, and mine’s stuff to bring back to the apartment. Even I have my standards and this really crossed a line just now.” Envy said in a bit of a huff as they made their way to a mansion-like building. “I’ll help teleport the items back to the apartment then, this is just absolutely appalling conditions to live in.” Dolly offered, clearly the elevator being out of the question to go back and forth for loading. “Good plan, I’ll need you to tell Lust what happened then while you do so.” Envy said as they kicked the door wide open thanks to the Carbon restructuring causing the doors to jam.

 The doors breaked away due to the density of Envy and the warm honey gold interior revealed itself as Envy started marching towards the stairs. The mansion had been a rather nice living space given its location with the space and the lavious decor. It didn’t change the fact, however, that it was now an air hazard with a combustible element acting as its building material. Dolly’s eyes followed along the numerous corridors of the mansion as though it may have housed many more homunculi at one point as Envy stopped in front of a room, getting the door opened immediately. Shockingly, there was barely anything except for a bed, a nightstand, a small closet, and a lamp as Dolly followed Envy inside. It was surprisingly minimalistic as Envy went to the small closet to gather items out of it. Out of the closet came a katana, a small safe box, an aged medical journal, a hooded lab jacket, and a small portable cooler for likely highly questionable dealings. Very swiftly, Envy started loading the items into Dolly’s arm for transport. “If they ask, tell them the underground is uninhabitable right now.” Envy instructed after finishing loading Dolly’s arm with their belongings.

 “Fair enough, stay right there and I’ll be right back.” Dolly said as she teleported off, items in arms.

 Back in the apartment, Lust had been listening to the radio given what Gluttony had told her about losing Lior when Dolly suddenly appeared. Acting as though she hadn’t just materialized like a ghost, Dolly placed the items on the table with Lust nearly choking on her tea. Regaining some composure, Lust stopped Dolly before she could teleport back.

 “What happened?” Lust asked after seeing all of Envy’s belongings be unloaded.  “The underground was made uninhabitable, that wretched creature transmuted everything into carbon.” Dolly explained, still rather mortified by what pretty much transpired down below.

“Damn it, I’m going to call Sloth and let her know about this.” Lust went to the phone to try calling Sloth back up, more for Wrath’s sake rather than Sloth’s.

Dolly gave the thumbs up as she teleported back to the underground to continue helping Envy out with the impromptu evacuation. Once Dolly left, Lust attempted to call up Sloth who, once again, took her sweet time to answer. There was a growing nail line on the wall as Lust tapped her fingers against it waiting for Sloth to pick up the phone. Nothing, no answer, no signs of Sloth picking up the phone. A part of Lust was tempted to just let Sloth live in the hazardous underground, but, instead, Lust continued trying to contact Sloth. As the wait time was getting out of hand in the apartment, Envy and Dolly were heading for Lust’s room to gather her belongings with Dorian eying the wallpaper to rip up. Even with tapetum lucidum on their side, the darkness of the halls were becoming difficult to navigate in as Envy’s hand traced along the wall once again before bursting into what could be assumed Lust’s room. Similarly to Envy’s room, Lust’s room was weirdly minimalistic, though the dresser had makeup spread out for her daily needs.

Cereal girl (a poem im working on)

Cereal girl, never fully there

So small and strange, almost inhumane

Wet cigarettes and dark alleys

I could be your cereal girl

Thin matress with alcohol stains

She’s always either eerily quiet

Or mumbling some rant about

Connection

The universe

Stars

Dead lavender on her bedside table

Being crushed by unread books

And empty notepads

I could be your cereal girl

Ink stained fingers and chipped nailpolish

Empty fridge, broken toaster

Accept that nothing is a given

But share with her a fragile promise

Cereal girl, her fingers turn blue

When you swap spit you taste death

Everything is physical

Nothing is physical

Your heater dies near the end of winter

She starts a fire in her being

Burning for you

Burning out

Burning from the inside out

Cereal girl, always almost here

On her way

She’s running late

I could be your cereal girl

She’ll alway hold your hand

But she might fade away

She sees the world in your eyes

You see God in hers

Her heart is an unmade bed

Her mind a club filled with spiked drinks

You don’t need to understand her

But dont dismiss your fear

Let me be your cereal girl

I’ll make you coffee in the mornings

I’ll disappear without a trace

I could be your cereal girl

You’ll adore her

As a drowned person does the sea

Scandalous intimacy

Blood beneath your fingernails

She’ll fade away

But you’ll always see her

In the flowers growing on the sidewalk

In your new haircut

She lives in the lump in your throat

She’s curled up in the back of your closet

She’ll make you dinner

She’ll kiss you goodnight

She’ll give you everything but permanence

She’ll give you everything but herself

Maybe she was never yours

Maybe she was always yours

But you can’t shake this feeling

Like butterfly skeletons

Like graphite on paper

The space between spaces

Let me be your cereal girl

Whispers and millipedes

Endurance, enjoyment

Cold tiles, warm baths

And you fear she’s been dead from the beginning

Her hairtie still on your wrist

Finding the body for months

You try to breathe, your lips are dry

How did it end?

How did it start?

Did you do this?

No, i’ve been dead from the beginning

HIM.

HE GIVES DAD ENERGY??

WHAT??

MARRY ME PLEASE??

He is voiced by Patrick Seitz, the same guy who voiced Dio in JJBA English dub

This is about Thrillipede, but I may add in the Buzz Wing

All gameplay screenshots are my friend’s images from Amino

Thrillipede is a military pilot millipede that is a Skylander, he used to serve in the Great Greeble War.

His bio:

Thrillipede served in the Millipede Military in the outer regions of Skylands. As the top pilot in his unit, Thrillipede was responsible for single-handedly blasting over 300 Greeble warships out of the sky! When the Great Greeble War came to an end, he returned to his hometown of Flutter Bay as a celebrated hero. He was the talk of the town and everyone wanted to shake the many hands of the famous young pilot. News of his heroics eventually made their way to Captain Flynn at the Skylander Academy, who set out to determine if the stories were true. In a series of friendly challenges, the two pilots raced, soared through obstacles, and performed incredible stunts in front of a cheering Flutter Bay crowd. In each event, Thrillipede stood victorious, and was asked to join the Skylanders shortly after. Of course, Flynn later admitted that he “let him win” so that Thrillipede wouldn’t be embarrassed in front of his hometown.

He’s also described as very modest and very reserved, and either makes it better or worse because he’s very close friends with Buzz and Buzz likes to talk about their adventures. He’s fearless and loves to fly in the sky without a care but is also highly observant both on land and in air. Interestingly enough, on the fandom wiki page, it says he loves to “wow the crowds”.

In terms of abilities, he mainly uses grenades and sometimes flies around with a pair of wings that he gets from cocooning. He is also incredibly skilled in combat, and will win a fight. He has a vast knowledge on machinery and flight mechanics.

He is very good friends with Buzz, as they both went on many missions together. Also speaking of Buzz please marry me-

Nothing else is stated much, he’s not in any of the comics or even in RoH, which is really weird because he’s the ONLY supercharger that’s left out.

Going onto his Easter variant, it’s a giant cursed Easter bunny.

As you can see, he’s plastered white, literally. His eyes are also black like bruh. It unsettles me but get it bestie 🐛

In the flavor text of his Eggcited outfit is:

Thrillipede is all suited up and is ready to defend his title as the reigning Dragon Egg Toss champion. After last year’s controversy, when Kaos wrongly accused him of costing several Dragon Eggs in sticky tape, Thrillipede is eager to show everyone that his egg tossing supremacy was no fluke. And to prove his point, he agreed to enter the competition with one hand tied behind his back!

I’m sorry this shit is funny-

There’s no other info I got on him and that’s really sad, because I love him so much and he’s a great character if you think about it. I love his concept art too they kept his overall body shape and-

Dad energy 100%

Some headcanons:

He’s Bi and Poly, most likely in a relationship with Buzz, hints at it but hasn’t told anyone

He’s a great cook, it takes a lot off his mind and keeps it from going into the darker pits of his mind

He’s a good listener and gives good advice, would def help you with anything

Pretty strong, he can carry the entire team in his arms if chose so. Tying into that he’s the tallest and the largest, and technically can punt the shorter ones but is terrified

He’s great friends with Fiesta, they vibe really hard

Tired, hasn’t gotten proper sleep in a while because he physically and mentally can’t relax

Doesn’t help because Buzz also doesn’t sleep for some god forsaken reason

He knows what’s going on, caught on many things

He gives some really good hugs, full on embrace you with his four arms and lifts you in the air

He’s super sweet and polite, it’s hard to get him angry

Has been asked many times by kids to adopt them

Be friends with him, he’s just really nice

Don’t fight him if you value your life and dignity, he’ll 『Za Worldo』 your ass

Relationship wise, he loves you dearly and is highly protective, is also a big cuddle-bug and loves to cook for you and Buzz

In all, he’s handsome and cute. Despite the lack of spin-off appearances and his flaws I still love him. He was one of my first fictional crushes, next to Charge Man, if not the first.

[ratcandy]

Alright before I sign off for the night I just got something to say. Lil rant incoming.

A message to those who do not own arthropods (bugs, spiders, myriapods, etc) or gastropods (snails/slugs):

in a conversation with someone that DOES own a pet like that, or breeds them, or just generally cares passionately about arthropods, it’s not cool nor funny to say that you would willingly kill that persons pet if you saw it.

If you’re arachnophobic or entomophobic, that’s totally valid and understandable - those are very common fears! But to tell someone in casual conversation that you would not hesitate, even in jest, to kill their pet,,,, its not cool!! At least to me!! That just insults me! aside from how distraught the very thought of you killing my pet makes me, it just also tells me you care so little about my connection to an animal that you would figuratively spit in my face at my mention of it. Especially if you keep pressing and joking about it afterwards!! If I express discomfort over you talking about how effortlessly you’d squish my pet, it would be appreciated that you wouldn’t continue to talk about how great it would be if my critter was dead.

No I’m not talking about an experience in particular what do you mean /s /nbh

regardless. i dont care if it’s a bug, I feel like it should be basic human decency not to tell someone you’d stomp on a creature they’d care about.

i mean, it’s generally unacceptable for someone to come up to you and say they’d kick your dog or purposefully step on your cat’s tail, so whys it okay for someone to. Say they’d kill your pet. If that pet just happens to be a millipede or tarantula or mantis or whatever. I don’t understand

other arthropod owners feel free to elaborate. I’ve just had so many experiences telling friends “I own a millipede” only for them to follow up with “oh I’d kill that thing if I saw it.” Like. okay. Thanks? What am I meant to say to that honestly

#clamtalk #vent? #Rant anyway #Bugs #arthropods #insects #arachnids #Maybe I’m in the wrong here idk. I just personally cannot stand it when people do this shit to me #then again I’ve got whole other triggers related to this subject specifically that might just. Be influencing this view in a biased way #But man. A little bit more respect for insects is all I ask for #ok to reblog #Ask to tag

[swords-and-chaos]

While I am not an expert on the subject, It really bothers me when people conflate centipedes and millipedes. There is a difference between the two, and not just the number of legs.

Centipedes tend to be flatter, faster, more aggressive, and venomous (it bites you and you die rather than you bite it and you die). They are often bright colors and will never curl up in a ball.

Millipedes on the other hand are effectively just cyanide squirting poisonous lapdogs. MOST (i’m not going to say all because like I said I’m not an expert and I don’t want to be responsible for someone getting hurt.) do have chemical defenses in the form of emitting a poison that would only hurt you if you eat it. Despite this, they are actually quite friendly. I would describe the way they tend to look as what you would get if you took a pill bug and stretched it. Millipedes actually make great pets. They can’t even bite you as far as I know. When they feel threatened will curl up in a ball/circle thing. They are mostly round in shape, though there is a certain amount of them that are flat in an attempt to look like centipedes I think.

Long story short, there is a difference, it’s just complicated and confusing. This was a pointless rant but if you got all the way to the end…. Uh… thanks? You certainly have a longer attention span than I do.

#dumb rant #milipede #centipede #incoherent ramblings

[valdrift]

one time i found a millipede on a hike with my cousins and had to go on a rant abt the difference between a millipede and centipede bc they thought they were gonna get bit and die 🙄

#held it for a bit and it was like a super long rollie pollie

[tiffanybozic]

I saw a few of these macro-shredder Cyanide-producing flat-backed Millipedes (Harpaphe haydeniana) in my driveway this morning. They give off a hydrogen cyanide gas (potent metabolic poison) that smells like roasted almonds! Also, they are considered a 'keystone species" because they play a crucial role in recycling the soil ecosystem. The pulsating movement of their legs also reminds me of the Ctenophora that I posted yesterday. I LOVE it when patterns in nature reveal themselves to me like I'm let in on a secret (so freakin' mind-blowingly awesome OMG I want to scream!) I don't know what to do with these boundless feelings! The more I discover the more I come to learn how little I understand. It amazes me that we humans have evolved to play such a vital role in this intricate connected system yet so many of us FEEL so disconnected. Can we adapt to our ever changing world by setting aside our differences and celebrate our beautiful wondrous world together? How can we artists revive & restore the collective narrative to inspire imaginative growth and possibility? How can I help????

Wee-oo wee-oo, purity police

A.K.A. one Tumblr Karen and their weird callout-post. A blog I followed just reblogged someone’s absolutely ridiculous “callout post”. Let’s call this person Karen. Karen begins their post by claiming another blogger has “proven themselves to be protecting pedophiles and indulging in abusive content”. Okay then. Let’s call this person X.

Karen continues with screenshots from X’s blog of... a drawing of a millipede wearing pants??? They are apparently appalled by a reblog where the millipede... throws away the pants... (Writing this feels surreal.) They let you know that they decided to look into the blog of this dangerous individual who dares to draw millipedes without pants on. We call them Y. Lo and behold! This absolute horrendous adversary of public decency has a blog of their explicit (censored) fanart that clearly made Karen pull out their smelling salts, as there are things like non-con, choking, characters that aren’t 18 (I don’t know the fandoms or the characters and I wasn’t interested in scrolling through their blog so I can only take their word for it) and whatever.

This is when this Karen sends X a message that Y is in fact a p*rn blogger! They blog abusive and pe//dophilic pictures of fictional characters! X has replied to them quite calmly that they don’t follow or interact with Y, save for the post they replied to. This is when Karen has a hissy fit. “Notice how passive aggressive it is? How it’s pinning all the responsibility onto me, even though they’re the one endorsing the pe//dophile by sharing their content? Naturally upset, I sent this second ask, before promptly getting blocked,” is what they write. In that second ask they blame X for “putting their content on my dash” and for “not taking responsibility”, while advising them on how to run and curate their own blog. What a fun individual. I can’t understand why they got blocked.

Nope, it doesn’t end here. Karen puts on the stalker pants. They creep around X’s other blogs someone conveniently has told them exist and even find and scroll through their Ao3 favorites. “Unsurprisingly, here I found their entire AO3 is dedicated to smut, some of which is abuse fics, pedophilic fics, or containing minor transphobia” is the comment they post with a screenshot of X’s favorite fics.

Finally, after this extensive rant Karen comes to the conclusion that “They’re a dangerous individual that AT BEST endorses obvious pe//dophiles and abusers and indulges in pedo//philic and abusive content. Block them, reblog this post, and then do as I did and forget they exist”. I’m not sure what you did was forgetting about it, Karen.

The whole post was so ridiculous that I had to read it a couple of times. Here’s what I have to say. Y has a blog I’m not interested in. They seem to ship things I don’t even know about and enjoy kinky things I dislike. You know what I do? I shrug and close their blog. I don’t like it, I don’t look at it. What I also don’t do is go on an aggressive scrolling fest on their blog and then send accusatory asks to someone who doesn’t even follow them. I also can understand the difference between fiction preferences and reality. Drawing Harley Quinn being choked doesn’t make them an abuser in real life. Shipping two characters that are, say, 16, doesn’t make a person a pedophile. Writing problematic fiction doesn’t make you condone everything the characters in your story do or say, and neither does it mean that someone who enjoys reading it condones their actions.

And you know what, Karens of the world? You don’t get to dictate how someone else runs their blog. You have no say in what they share. You can send an ask if you’d like them to tag something triggering or even mention that hey, you reblogged something from someone seedy. They may or may not agree with you and follow your suggestion. But again, it’s their choice. You don’t get to take a moral high ground and get aggressive when their response has been perfectly neutral. Also consider: someone consuming graphic content is none of your business if they aren’t rubbing it in your face on purpose. And even then you can block them. Nobody is forcing you to follow anyone’s blog, and gasping judgmentally how someone likes sexually explicit content on Ao3 makes you sound like a prudish child... especially when you have deliberately sought it out. Karen, I think you need to take a break from the internet and maybe get a hobby. You just come off as an asshole.

Ok so 1. I work as a paralegal in a real estate law firm. Ideally I'd like to save up to go to law school, but college absolutely wrecked my mental health and having an 8 to 5 is the kind of stability my autistic ass desperately needs. Plus I want to work in a field that's actually meaningful, like criminal defense, because right now I'm just helping rich people move their money around.

2. I desperately need a pet. When I was a teenager I had frogs/snakes/an axolotl/a giant African millipede/rhino beetles and I adored having things to care for. Now that I'm finally living on my own I could get a dog... But I'm so afraid that I'll have to move and not be able to bring them with me.

3. I have no taste in music. Like none. I'll listen to the same broadway soundtrack on repeat for days and be perfectly content. Right now I'm oscillating between Hadestown and The Band's Visit. Like sure I like hozier and willow smith and fleetwood mac but like... I dont really listen to actual music unless I'm with someone else.

4. I'm really hard pressed to think of things and I'm only at 4, oh shit. Lmao. Um I've had covid-19? Last month I was so sick I thought I was dying and went to the emergency room. It was the most pain I've ever been in and I had an ovary get so twisted for so long that it had to be removed. After a bunch of tests they found out I had an ear infection, corona, and lymes disease all at the same time. I'm doing fine now, but like....... my body was absolutely riddled with bacteria.

5. I'm teaching myself how to tattoo!! When I was in high school I really wanted to be a tattoo artist but my parents unequivocally said no. But now that I'm an Adult with Adult Money, I bought a few machines and have been working on fake skin and oranges to try and improve my technique. Once I'm happy with that I'm absolutely going to try and tattoo myself. I already have six pieces, but I feel like one I've done myself would be the most meaningful.

6. I really enjoy sewing and make a lot of the items in my closet (I'm just really into dark academia and masculine cottagecore and that stuff's hard to find in the right fabrics). This year I sewed a renaissance faire dress based off of Erika's blue dress from Barbie Princess and the Pauper, but then corona cancelled the ren faire lmao

7. Ummm.... I write stories for the app Episode? They're not great? But I grew up coding and their donacode system is super easy to pick up, plus you get to write dialouge and code the rest, which is perfect for me. I suck at writing non-dialouge and am good at photoshopping and coding so it balances out.

8. I dont really 'stan' celebrities, but I fucking adore Chris Fleming so much. Go on YouTube right now and look up his special 'Show Pig'. It's so funny. Also Keanu Reeves and Britney Spears are both really good people #FreeBritney

9. We can just get all of the statuses out of the way, right? Lmao I'm an autistic and depressed lesbian whose got plenty of trauma and grew up poor. It's not like that defines my life, but it lowkey kinda does? Like those things absolutely shape how I approach the world. Idk. I'm also a leftist who thinks America needs to nationalize healthcare and abolish the police so 🤷‍♀️ also the only good presidents the USA has ever had are Jimmy Carter and FDR and even then they had issues..... All of our presidents have been racists or immoral villains because we're a 🎶🎵fascist police state🎶🎵

10. I have a policy where if something really excites me to my core I do it. After being depressed for over a decade, anything that really gets me vibing is a good thing. And I haven't regretted a thing- it's had me getting a lot of tattoos and going a lot of cool places and do some risky but fun stuff. One of these things was last year I shaved my head. I'd wanted to do it since I was like 12 because I've always hated my hair (is it dysphoria? uh oh we don't have time to examine that) and so I did it and I loved it. I'm now in the process of growing it out only because I have a tattoo on the back of my neck that I'm tired of people asking about, so I basically have a mullet rn and it looks REAL boo boo the fool. But it's okay because I'm the ~~prettiest girl in the villa~~~ lmfao

This was super fun. Imma have to go through my mutuals and see who already did this, but thanks for tagging me 💖✨

nooo don’t bite your tongue i wanna year the dinosaur rant if you have one

I have to say, it's less of a dinosaur rant and more of a taxonomy vs common name rant. The fire has gone out of me a little, so I'll just say this-- some species are incredibly prone to be named stupid-ass things. They get named after people, after things, as tributes. How else can you explain that millipede that was named after the McElroys? We name things after other important things. That's a tradition in taxonomic nomenclature. And, anyway, common names differ from scientific names. (Long story short, "cringe" is a human constant.)

#that's the gist of it. i just don't have the energy. sorry. #checking the mail
