I really hope it’s still Lord of the Rings related …

And now I’m reminded that I will forever be teased by the New Zealand side of my family… 😅

I found a photo showing how large Kiwi can get, before we went to see them at the Te Puia Geothermal Park, and I was SHOCKED.

“Shel, how big did you think they were?”

I put my hands up🫸🫷to the size of a robin

“I don’t know… bird sized”

“Bird sized? … you’re gonna lose your shit when you see a ostrich”

😐😑😐🙄😮‍💨

I don’t think you’re old enough to remember Neopets, but the Neopets community is the most wholesome, friendly, accepting, and generous forum I’ve ever been a part of. It’s on reddit, but is the only reddit community I’m a part of. The website is still fully functional with all the original 2000/2010s elements and its my happy place.

I make nipple pasties as a hobby and love it! I specialize in blacklight reactive ones 😁

Don’t give them any ideas

Not quite the same, but I’m waiting for the day when people will pronounce street names like the GPS, instead of how they are actually pronounced. The street Schoenherr, in my neck of the woods is pronounced "Shane urr (yes, like the planet Omicron Percii 8, cause Detroit (Day twah) is weird), but the GPS says “Shown her”. I’m really curious to see how long it takes for the computer voice to be considered the correct one.

Something I’m seeing a lot is the statement “I’m not distancing myself because of political differences, I’m distancing myself because of moral differences”

Anyone who is happy at the expense of others losing rights, is not different from you politically, they’re different from humanity, as far as basic ethics.

You’re not selfish. You’re strong. Stronger than me and I’m proud of you for trying to fight to help your dad, but please don’t do it at your own expensive. I’m pan and non-monagamous but buried further in the closet than a cable that “definitely will be useful in the future” because my family would turn on me in a heartbeat.

I’m happy to help!

Mine only connect if there’s a lot of lacey/delicate things in the wash with them. If you hook them together before they go in, they’re less likely to come apart, but once I started throwing them in with shirts, sweaters, pants and PJs, they stopped hooking into other things.

Cisgenger woman, so please ignore me if this isn’t welcome, but I would love to help!

I wash all my bras in the machine, on cold and hang them dry. Putting into a lingerie bag is a personal preference. (I only do it if I’m washing other stuff with zippers) If there are deodorant stains, vinegar is pretty effective. Soak the bra and use either a toothbrush or (I know this sounds crazy) the foam top of a dry-cleaner coat hanger, to scrub off deodorant. Idk why the coat hanger foam works but it’s great!

I’m a professional cosplayer and mortician (so a seamstress, SFX makeup artist, wig stylist, all in one), and I’m happy to share any of my knowledge! My friend group is mostly people who loathe and/or changed their assigned gender, so it’s a subject close to my heart. 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵

Thank you! You’re awesome

I can verify this! My roommate works for the DOD. He can’t tell me much, but every federal worker has been warned they’re going to be purged and replaced with staff Elon chooses. In addition, mandatory Return To Work orders have meant that many of his coworkers will be let go for “missing work” despite the fact that the military knows they moved and they’ve been working remotely for almost 5 years. It’s skuzzy as fuck.

The thing that got me in this article was the idiot politician saying that “Christians are being targeted”… oh you dumb toddler… you don’t like how it feels to be “discriminated against” and your solution is to target and discriminate?! An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind.

Digital items, but Amazon intentionally makes them impossible to find. There’s a ton of e-books and Audiobooks that are $0.01 - $0.05, but Amazon intentionally buries them under the “free with Kindle subscription” crap, so that people can’t milk this without really putting in the effort

Oh my goodness! So cute!

Some people have no regards for lives other than their own… and often get violent if a living being won’t obey them. I’m a domestic abuse survivor, so there was no way I was gonna leave without him.

And thank you! He’s dressed as Wolf Link. 😁 I am a cosplayer, and since he’s my medical alert dog, he goes with me to comic cons.

Yes, porn is free, but the companies that host it are utter garbage. They pay next to nothing, claim ownership of the content, and don’t care if a person is being exploited. Finding a person that you think is awesome/sexy and supporting their content means custom tailored and personal fun-times; that the adult content creator is the one who gets paid; and that it’s unlikely they’re being forced/pimped/trafficked.

Free porn is perfectly cromulent and there’s a lot of variety; but if you can afford it, supporting a person is better overall. I used to create erotic cosplay photography for a living, so I’m all too familiar with how screwed up things are for sex workers.

I’m curious the feature.

I got sterilized because I have a painful, degenerative, genetic condition (with no cure), that I feel is too cruel to pass on. I won’t risk letting a child be born with this syndrome, so I made the choice so I never have to deal with getting pregnant. If I ever want a kid, I’ll adopt. (Doubtful. I can barely take care of myself like this)

Every day hurts, there’s LOTS of days I wish I was aborted but I look at my rescue dog (who had been my service dog for 9 years now) and everything is OK. He was thrown away twice before I came along and his first owner kicked his teeth in. If I wasn’t here, who knows what could have happened to him.

Pet Tax. You can see where his face was kicked, but nothing stops him from smiling

Heck yes! Also throwing this out there for more cute dog stuff
