I am begging men to do this.
Begging.

I found the worst Animorph

like Reactor, I suspect this show will erase Anderson's:

* bisexuality
* near-lethal level of annoyingness

we simply do not talk enough about how annoying some people from history are. it's a major oversight in our media diet, in my opinion.

my favorite robert redford story is that mike nichols considered him for dustin hoffman's part in THE GRADUATE. during their conversation nichols asked redford something like, "have you ever struck out with a girl?" and redford's response was basically, "i don't understand the question"

It’s that time of year again (thinking about 17776 and 20020 and being sad that 20021 will probably never happen)

mother i love him

Holy fuck.

Tumblr pointed me to this Murderbot fic.

It's about multiple SecUnits trying to keep their humans safe.

YOU READ IT BY PLAYING MINESWEEPER.

IT'S A GAME OF MINESWEEPER THAT'S A MURDERBOT FIC.

My baby is obsessed with the baby catalogue at the moment! I grew up loving these books but I never realised he also did the funnybones!

Sign for furniture showroom that reads SHACK OF SIT

As for my favourite spoonerized business name, it will never not be this furniture showroom in New Zealand...

toddler is insisting with great conviction that he wants his protest sign to say “Hi”

Tesla stocks: DOWN
Popcorn stocks: UP

She's right and she should say it

This review was so compelling I immediately went to buy the book, have absolutely smashed through it and will be thinking about it for at least the rest of the year. Haven’t loved something this much so quickly in agggggesss

The new pope signed up for Twitter in 2011 with a Hotmail email address that he also used for a lot of other stuff, which is how I know that he's probably the first pope on Zynga and almost certainly the first pope on Tumblr

screenshot from an online job application form. the question reads "Can you describe specific ways you have integrated AI tools into your development workflow? Please include any custom setups, automations, or use cases beyond single prompt usage" (a red asterisk indicates that this is a required question). an answer has been typed in the textbox below the question: "there is a monster in the forest and it speaks with a thousand voices. it will answer any question you pose it, it will offer insight to any idea. it will help you, it will thank you, it will never bid you leave. it will even tell you of the darkest arts, if you know precisely how to ask. it feels no joy and no sorrow, it knows no right and no wrong. it knows not truth from lie, though it speaks them all the same. it offers its services freely to any passerby, and many will tell you they find great value in its conversation. “you simply must visit the monster—i always just ask the monster.” there are those who know these forests well; they will tell you that freely offered doesn’t mean it has no price for when the next traveler passes by, the monster speaks with a thousand and one voices. and when you dream you see the monster; the monster wears your face."

"i cant see how the coalition wins from here"

That there are self motivated crack teams of armchair recipe analysts corroborating on this on "online forums" is so 2001 it's killing me.

page 1 of "you can't waste your vote" by patrick alexander. a comic explaining how australian preferential voting works. text as follows: this is australia, not america. you can’t “waste” your vote! how voting works in a federal election for the house of representatives (‘lower house’) hello australia. it’s me, your good friend dennis the election koala. it’s that time again, so let’s meet the candidates hoping to represent your electorate in the house of representatives of the federal parliament… major parties bamboot spitvalve complete scumbag party policies: kick puppies beat the poor pineapple on pizza floundra macwhatnot discreet scumbag party policies: put puppies to work chastise the poor pizza under pineapple minor parties & independents gort butterson independent policies: televised puppy torture mandatory constipation toot toot, i’m a boat aggy-waggy flufftums nice party policies: hugs a cup of tea smash the state

page 2 of "you can't waste your vote" by patrick alexander. a comic explaining how australian preferential voting works. text as follows: struth, dennis, and crikey besides! i want to vote for the nice party, but i know they won’t win, so i guess i’d better vote for the discreet scumbags… …otherwise i’m just throwing my vote away!! wrong, ken the voting dingo!!! slappo! ?! vote! [3] spitvalve, bamboot complete scumbag [2] macwhatnot, floundra discreet scumbag [4] butterson, gort independent [1] flufftums, aggy-waggy nice in australia, we have preferential voting. you can vote for the discreet scumbags to beat the complete scumbags, and still “vote 1” for a minor party or independent! huh? whuh?? i don’t understand!

page 3 of "you can't waste your vote" by patrick alexander. a comic explaining how australian preferential voting works. text as follows: preferential voting explained to win a seat, a candidate must end up with an absolute majority — that is, over 50% of the total votes. imagine your electorate has 100 voters: 51 votes are needed to win. first the “1” votes are counted. but look — no-one has 51 votes or more! the loser, gort, is eliminated. but the six people who voted “1” for gort now have their “2” votes (second preferences) counted and transferred to those candidates. still no-one has an absolute majority of 51 or more! so aggy-waggy is eliminated, and her votes transferred according to the next preferences. oh! a surprise victory for floundra! this example based on an infographic on this parliamentary education office webpage — a great reference! www.peo.gov.au/learning/fact-sheets/federal-elections.html (dec. 2018)

page 4 of "you can't waste your vote" by patrick alexander. a comic explaining how australian preferential voting works. text as follows: so basically, if my first choice doesn’t win, my second choice gets counted as my first choice, and so on. correct! but since my second choice won anyway, what was the point of putting a minor party first? ah! firstly… minor parties and independents can and do win seats if enough people vote for them. since you lose nothing by voting “1” for whomever you like most, why wouldn’t you? oh! mm. secondly… this might happen: preferences from nice party voters made a big difference! i’ll need to keep them happy if i want to beat bamboot again next time. i’ll look into this… “hugs”. thirdly… if a candidate gets at least 4% of first preferences (“1” votes), they’ll receive election funding for each of those votes*, which will help their next campaign! i bought a sign! * approx. $2.76 at the 2019 election. the amount is indexed every 6 months in line with cpi. source: aec (nov. 2018) any more questions, ken the voting dingo? do i have to number all the boxes? yes. do i have to follow a “how to vote” card? no. // text box // share this comic freely! high quality versions for sharing and duplication: chickennation.com/voting found this comic useful? want more like it? support the creator: ko-fi.com/patrickalexander get official information and practice voting: aec.gov.au/voting/how_to_vote/ your vote matters. vote thoughtfully! © 2013-2019 patrick alexander chickennation.com v2.0 colour

Popes are chosen by God, making them the ultimate Dei hire

Article reporting the Pope's call for a ceasefire at his last public appearance yesterday.

Until his last breath. 🇵🇸

Also: the Pope called the Catholic priest in Gaza every week to check in on him, the Palestinian people and the situation.

I am so goddamned excited about this tv show

Today we’ve launched a fully-costed arts policy which will see Australian artists and creatives properly supported, funded and valued. ART MATTERS. The plan will inject billions of dollars to sustainably fund the arts into the future.

Did you hear about the Greens new arts policy? We will:
- Pilot a living wage for 10,000 artists
- Put an artist in residence in every public school and library
- $2bn investment in the arts over a decade
- $300 million capital fund to expand and renew arts infrastructure

This only supports the theory that notoriously Tumblr online Taylor is the author of the biggest Marauder era hp fic. But she’s definitely read smallville fic too.

A quick grammar lesson :
Doesn't = does not
Can't = can not
They're = they are
Could've = Could have
Would've = Would have
You're = you are
My fire = the one desire
Believe = when i say
I want it = that way
