Oh, yeah. This all track, statistics majors are so much better at naming things than biologists
cats are NOT making biscuits you DO NOT knead biscuit dough or else it will be TOUGH they are making BAGELS or perhaps a SANDWICH LOAF
i went to a tiny counterserve diner once and accidentally poured sugar instead of salt all over my hashbrowns and was eating them sadly anyways. the waitress took them away and started making me another one and I tried to protest, but she just snorted and said "we're not catholic here". now every time i'm doing something painful out of obligation i think about how that is not repenting, this body is not a catholic establishment, there is no nobility in suffering.
wishiwasmothman asked: You’re on tumblr?!?!?!?!?!?!?! :O
Yeah. Too bad you’re not Mothman.
i think one of the funniest things ever is how many rock and metal bands are just four or five identical white dudes with long brown hair parted in the middle. like they’ve gotta be cranking these dudes out in a factory at this point. they don’t even have to be in the same genre, you can find them anywhere. they’re like some kind of metal fungus.
everything about this image so clearly dates it perfectly i feel like i’m examining the rings on a great and majestic oak tree
I really wish we'd collectively decide to stop pushing the whole "brains aren't fully developed until age 25" thing.
I've seen this three separate times this week and two of those came from TERF's arguing that 1) no one under the age of 25 should be allowed to medically transition, and 2) that puberty blockers also block brain development and prevent trans youth from becoming adults/developing adult brains.
Is this really the direction that we want to go here? 24 year olds not considered fully adults, not allowed to make their own medical decisions? Because this is what anti-trans people are pushing for in regards to gender affirming healthcare.
Maybe it's the pissed off millennial in me sick of the infantilization of my generation. Maybe it's because I'm transmasc and I've seen repeatedly how TERFs infantilize trans men and transmasc people. Maybe I'm just too neurodivergent for this bullshit and entirely creeped out and disgusted by the concept of mental age in every form. But this is not the damned way.
It's not even an entirely accurate statement--We already know that brain development continues well into our 30's and beyond, and it varies by person.
Personally I'm glad that I can't relate to that nonsense. I'll be 30 later this year and my very neurodivergent self is still becoming, still learning, and still doing new things all the time that I never thought I'd be capable of doing. I'm worthy of bodily autonomy and respect now, and I was before 25 and before 18 too.
People don't have to have "fully developed brains" in order to be deserving of bodily autonomy and the freedom to make their own medical decisions.
People don't have to be adults--in any way--to be worthy of having their gender identity respected.
And we don't have to be neurotypical to be worthy of having access to gender affirming health care.
