i love working at an aquarium i just witnessed a grown man with children enter the freshwater gallery and loudly exclaim “oh shit, piranhas are REAL?!?”
the delights of working with the public continue! just heard someone announce over the radios “hey we have guest wearing an inappropriate shirt that needs to be spoken to, i last saw him in sharks & rays and the shirt says ‘do milfs not drugs’ if a supervisor could take care of that that’d be great cuz he’s not being cooperative” and then a good 5 minutes later i heard a supervisor radio for security backup
suzanne collins is such a genius… the cultural phenomena of her series leading to the hanging tree house remixes, mockingjay being milked for two (bad) movies, the capitol-inspired makeup palettes, the halloween costumes, the explosion of the market for dystopia, the butchering of her characters and removal of disabilities, disfiguration, and racial tension + representation to sell more tickets, the extra gale scenes to fuel discourse, and the audience showing up to cinemas to watch what was pretty honestly marketed to them (the jacob vs edwardification of the symbolic love story and also to watch children fight to the death) it’s just so ridiculously ironic i would say you can’t write this shit, but she did write about it… in The Hunger Games published 2008
i avoid printers at all costs but deep down i think i should’ve been a printer. life so easy. i sit there all squarelike and when someone has a minor task for me i goFUCK YOU
the multigender and nonbinary communities NEED to get better at listening to intersex people. intersex people are not “biologically nonbinary”. intersex people do not exist as a gotcha for debates about gender and sex. not all intersex people are “both” male and female. non-intersex people can’t identify as intergender. please consider us when you talk about your identities
to add onto this:
intersex is neither a “third sex” or a blend of male and female. there are many many intersex variations, and that can lead to different identities for different intersex people
but honestly. the idea you have in your head of “intersex = male AND female” is almost definitely wrong
some intersex people identify as their ASAB, some don’t, but it’s often complicated
you cannot transition to be intersex. you’re either born intersex or you’re not. I am not your nonbinary “transition goal”
Fuck you anti bird architecture who gives a shit if a little guy makes a nest on top of your stupid Starbucks sign
They put anti-bird spikes on a church in my hometown, so the only place on the building where birds can sit is on the very top, on the cross. So the cross is now covered in bird shit

Harry: He is a 40 something alcoholic police officer who drank until he forgot everything. He is still missing his ex girlfriend who left him 6 years ago. You can get an achievement called “World’s sorriest cop” if you have him apologize 10 times. He has the moral backbone of a graham cracker. He doesn’t remember what money is. Please, he lost Tumblr’s most pathetic creature’s poll to Vriska. He’s never won anything before, he needs this.
