See, that’s what the app is perfect for.

Sounds perfect Wahhhh, I don’t wanna

Trying to formulate a coherent pinned post again…

(1) Anybody is allowed to ship or not ship anything, for any reason. No explanations required.

(2) Clear, accurate tags and warnings keep everybody safe. Bans on specific content labels don’t keep people from creating or posting the content, only from warning others it’s there before they trip over it.

(3) I don’t care if you call yourself proship, anti, anti-anti, or whatever your righteous motivation is – if you ever find yourself making threats of death or harm toward any nonfictional being for any reason related to shipping or fandom, you are acting reprehensibly and need to stop.

Pinned Post i'm not even the one with common sense around here that's leia's job but dear god the things we have to state these days that should be common sense just stop with the moral crusading for five seconds okay?

can i talk my shit again. yall love fat people when theyre like 200 lbs and "somft" but can we get some positivity posts for people who are like 400 and having trouble getting off the floor. who have tried everything and cant drop more than 20 pounds. yes fat people are beautiful and awesome but can we talk about 4/5x more instead of just xxl. for the love of god. can we talk about those of us who cant get merch of our favorite creators bc it only goes up to 3x.

Yes. Exactly fucking this. We live in a society. Larger fat people are treated like toxic sludge despite being cute and wonderful and funny and (not even needing to be all these things I'm just saying, yanno, larger fat people are WORTHY FUCKING HUMAN BEINGS THE SAME AS THE THINS OR LESSER FATS)

Here's some amazing brands that are size inclusive. (This is not an ad. I am not affiliated with these people. They don't know I exist. They're just size inclusive brands.)

Cute dressies and go up to a 6x!

MORE CUTE DRESSIES THAT GO UP TO A 6XL

ALTERNATIVE FASHION THAT GOES UP TO 7XL

Swimsuits. Has gender neutral option. A few T-shirts. Alternative style. Goes up to 6XL

(And no. Me saying "dressies" isn't me being infantilizing. That's just how I talk when I see cute dressies.)

And these people use plus sized models to show off their plus sized clothing on tiktok.

Y’all in the American SW and west Mexico better check the national hurricane center and your weather for this weekend and next week.

Hurricane Hilary is about to make landfall and that whole desert area is supposed to get a years worth of rain or more. Death Valley is supposed to get twice the annual rainfall. Severe winds, massive flooding, and landslides are all strong possibilities.

This is gonna get ugly. Please spread the word. This is a majorly anomalous event and people may be unaware of the threat headed their way.

Flash floods are definitely gonna kill people, so here’s your regularly scheduled PSA:

Desert soil does not absorb a significant amount of water. It reaches maximum saturation very very quickly, and all the rest of the water rushes downhill. Even if you can’t tell that the ground is not perfectly flat, the water can. And it will move. Quickly. No, faster than that. Nope, still faster. If you try to cross moving floodwater, you will get swept downstream and probably die.

Do not try to wade in/cross flood water that is any deeper than the thickness of the sole of an average athletic shoe, no I am not kidding, the water will get deeper literally while you’re standing in it.

This goes for cars, too. I’ve seen entire vehicles getting swept downstream in flash floods because the driver thought they could cross the “puddle” and Found Out.

Stay safe, y’all.

A couple of inches of moving water is more than enough to move a car. Don't fuck with it.

never ever drive into water you can't clearly see the bottom of

Presenting: The Six-Point System For Rating Your Watson

(Developed in collaboration with the Letters From Watson server, thanks folks)

On a scale of 1-10, rate your Dr Watson for the following qualities:

  • Buff - strength and build
  • Fluff - handsomeness and kindness
  • Gruff - sternness and anger potential
  • Stuff - can he do things besides just watching Holmes
  • Bluff - how unreliable a narrator is he/can he lie
  • Chuffed - is he happy to be there? Does he like hanging out with Holmes?

Go forth!

I think it's important to let guys be gender non conforming without telling them they're a girl, cause actually misgendering people is still shit even when you are pro trans. "You're a girl, an egg waiting to crack, and that's ok" how about you are a boy and a man and it's still ok if you want to do something that doesn't align with traditional ideals of your gender. You can still be he/him in a skirt and makeup.

"If you wear pink/like floral scents/write with gel pens/whatever then you're a girl" is not the progressive statement that some people think it is.

there is, in fact, a "platonic explanation for this" if you're not a coward

thisvegetabledoesntfallinlove

its so fun to see the diversity of tags on this ranging from "they're literally just standing next to each other" to "deep bonds dont have to be romantic/sexual!" to "yeah friends can fuck nasty, platonically. coward." we're all so correct, there are, in fact, a million platonic explanations for this
