So! There's a place in Philly called the Mutter Museum. Filled with all manner of human specimens of various ailments.
Absolutely fascinating. Like $20 admission. 100% worth it.
A couple of the pieces on display are the skulls and jaws of mouth breathers. I don't know if they had an issue that required surgery that wasn't available in the 1800's, or if it was just bad habits, but.
Literally changes the shape of your bones. And therefore your face.
Fucking wild.
man we are all gonna end up in Gain Ground
You know, fairy tales for children generally involved horror, murder, dismemberment and worse.
To get the kids to be aware of the actual horrors of the world, which are worse.
Hearing a story about, or seeing a fictional or even actual video of some of the fucked up shit people do to each other for stupid fucking reasons is still not actually traumatic.
Experiencing depictions of such shit should absolutely bother you. Should absolutely put you a bit on your toes, in real life, on the daily.
So you can avoid those situations. So you know shit like that's possible, and fucked up fuckers have done it and will do it, and they'll think they're right the whole time.
Because when it does actually happen, that's when it is traumatic, and not just being smart and aware
Ruining your day isn't ruining your life.
Life sucks. Get a helmet
eh, shit i've read and seen on a screen, while it may have bothered me at the time, isn't actual trauma, which does not fucking ask permission.
And yeah, there's media that triggers that-but it's media. I close it. I leave. I can. it's not actually happening to me, right now.
I think it's a decent notion, to annotate. It's for sure people trying to be good for one another, and that's laudable.
But. As I said, the worst of the world does not ask permission, and I think enforcement of content tags or what have you would likely lead directly to even more oppression and censorship in the storm of that which we are currently in.
I will say ao3's pretty on point about it, from what i've seen-it's voluntary, and it's actually voluntary. How you keep that across the ages is anyone's guess
Sounds like a fuckin banger of an existence
whoa there einstien, jam your big fat brain back down on this dollar shaped toast
*not a dig at you, btw. It's the obvious answer, I just hate the world right now
ugh. Living in vehicles can work-I've done so most of my life-but not in a fucking toyota corrola
So your parents are landlords.
and are raking in the rewards of their tenants paying rent
lol, the data breach part is super real. Them actually searching for it for your authentication isn't.
Never not fucking ever will I ever upload any ID to any internet anything. I don't like using my bank card online. Or in person. Cash is king baby, all else is bullshit and giving fuckers new and exciting ways to steal your shit
So sad to me that craigslist, or even just fucking yard sales, and cash seem to be going down in use in the states. Cash is king, baby
Lost Boi
Don't recall the author's name, but it's a great retelling of peter pan, pretty quick read
