I have a folder called Time is a Flat Circle in which I collect evidence of humanity. Here is most of them.
how to get over somebody
You guys don't even word these as questions anymore. You treat me like bitch google.
Please take down your bird feeders if you’re in the US - there’s a massive spread of bird flu in 2022 and it’s already killed millions of poultry, let alone all the affected wild birds. This disease doesn’t affect just birds - it can spread to humans and other animals like your pets.

i understand that mosquitoes are also necessary but. They Fucking Suck!!!!
I feel like if humans swallowed rocks like birds do to help grind up food we'd have so much fun with it.
Can just imagine all the girlies on tiktok going "I know this is a bit controversial but I honestly love using limestone as a gastrolith. Not only can you readily forage it but they are just so pretty when smoothed out after regurgitating them"
and then all the comments would be like " girl 😭 😭 calcite dissolves in stomach acid!! Just use quartz if you want a pretty gastrolith like 💀"
I feel like a good shorthand for a lot of economics arguments is "if you want people to work minimum wage jobs in your city, you need to allow minimum wage apartments for them to live in."
"These jobs are just for teenagers on the weekends." Okay, so you'll use minimum wage services only on the weekends and after school. No McDonald's or Starbucks on your lunch break.
"They can get a roommate." For a one bedroom? A roommate for a one bedroom? Or a studio? Do you have a roommate to get a middle-wage apartment for your middle-wage job? No? Why should they?
"They can live farther from city center and just commute." Are there ways for them to commute that don't equate to that rent? Living in an outer borough might work in NYC, where public transport is a flat rate, but a city in Texas requires a car. Does the money saved in rent equal the money spent on the car loan, the insurance, the gas? Remember, if you want people to take the bus or a bike, the bus needs to be reliable and the bike lanes survivable.
If you want minimum wage workers to be around for you to rely on, then those minimum wage workers need a place to stay.
You either raise the minimum wage, or you drop the rent. There's only so long you can keep rents high and wages low before your workforce leaves for cheaper pastures.
"Nobody wants to work anymore" doesn't hold water if the reason nobody applies is because the commute is impossible at the wage you provide.
woke up today and realized that tumblr entirely killed fuck ya life bing bong so here ya go again
"Palestinians deserve to die because of Hamas" 1) most of what you know about hamas is propaganda and/or totally decontextualised from the ongoing struggle of Palestinian liberation from Israel. 2) even if what you think you know about Hamas is true (it's not), no person, no community's right to live in safety is conditional on others. if you believe Palestinians deserve to be killed because of what you think you know about Hamas then by that same logic (casting judgment on a whole ethnic group by the actions of a small group), all Australians should be carpet-bombed for the actions of the Murdoch family. All Americans should be genocided because of the Trump administration - you get the point! there is no action anyone anywhere can take that justifies the genocide of their entire identity, full stop.
It’s been over 24 hours since the news and I still can’t believe, that after 4 years, we’ve finally got a release date for S2✨
