Merri, Merri, Quite Contrary

The anxious tyrant would like to check in and make sure you actually enjoyed her cruelly and callously enforcing her desires on you without any respect or recognition

👀 I'm sort of afraid to know... But let's try it.

_FINALLY_ getting to read this and--

I didn't need that gut punch. Just...why? Who hurt you? 😭

Problematic boot size gap.

this princess swoons and faints like an actual princess and that's beautiful

No, the Maine.

Came here to tag you the moment I saw this post.

who'd he get this time?

Read this... This is good...

Note, Castor plants are not illegal to own (as far as I know...), but you can mash the beans and through a fairly simple extraction process, derive one of the most toxic proteins on earth, ricin.

It took me weeks to go back and finish the final chapter, but absolutely worth it.

These are castor beans (Ricinus communis), I don't think those are.

For a moment I thought they might be castor beans, but I don't think so.

Periodic reminder that I wrote a full-length mechsploi novel last year and it's very good! One of the more fucked up works in the space for sure; give it a read if you're a fan of truly-nauseating women, Communism, or nonconsensual brain surgery - or best, all 3!

My Discover feed every damn day:

"Unalive" "grape" "seggs" This has got to stop. Do people hear themselves? Its like talking to a particularly sensitive toddler. We can't remove serious words from our language just because we're afraid some fickle algorithm will show our posts to less people

I was watching Patrick Willems talking about the same thing this morning.
