JESSE: EVERYTHING THAT WE KNOW AND LOVE IS REDUCIBLE TO THE ABSURD ACTS OF CHEMICALS, AND THERE IS THEREFORE NO INTRINSIC VALUE IN THIS MATERIAL UNIVERSE.
JAMES: HYPOCRITE THAT YOU ARE, FOR YOU TRUST THE CHEMICALS IN YOUR BRAIN TO TELL YOU THEY ARE CHEMICALS. ALL KNOWLEDGE IS ULTIMATELY BASED ON THAT WHICH WE CANNOT PROVE. WILL YOU FIGHT? OR WILL YOU PERISH LIKE A HERDIER?
MEOWTH: I LIKED THE OLD OATH BETTER…
holy shit
Literally what is going on?
I like how this simple pokemon joke comic brings us from Chomsky’s example of how free will and order can arise from a materialist universe via the example of language(and thus, that materialism is not wholly and inherently deterministic) all the way back to Plato, 2000+ years ago, stupidly arguing that you’re born knowing everything, learning is impossible, and all knowledge is just memory from a pre-existence union with Perfect/Ideal Divinity.
Good morning to the trans man loudly slamming his girlfriend in the bunk above convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, and ONLY the trans man loudly slamming his girlfriend in the bunk above convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell
Reblog to assess who is a friend and who is an enemy
There is no secret fourth. If you like all of them, pick one. If you like none of them, pick one. If you dont know what pizza is look at the pictures. No none of the above. Fight. Kill
As a lesbian, it’s happened twice already that one “guy” stands out to me and I think “huh maybe they’re kinda cute and interesting, I wanna get to know them” and then I get to know them better and it’s a closeted trans girl who I somehow sniffed with my little nonbinary lesbian nose
IT JUST HAPPENED FOR A THIRD TIME!!!!
You guys will never believe what just happened to me
What does it mean if every “man” I’ve been attracted to was actually a trans woman? Idk what this says about my sexual orientation but it does mean I have astounding egg-dar
Gays being able to detect trans people of our preferred gender and being able to feel preemptive attraction to them is a phenomenon I was not aware extended to people beyond me
Rating Yonic Words (Very Logical and Unbiased and Scientific and Impartial)
Vagina et al. - 2/10. Hard “g” sound is awful. Its a chewy word. Would be better with a soft “g” like in the french vagin, but even thats like, 5/10. Also way overused to describe the whole set when its only the main hole, but its also the proper clinical word for said hole. “Vag” is slightly better but carries the sin of the father (hard “g”), and va-jay-jay is a solid 0. You just doubled the worst sound here. Its the yonic Cain.
Vulva - 10/10. Love him. “V” sounds flow so nicely. You could sing this in an opera. Also actually refers to the whole kit n caboodle. May be a little clinical for some but we can change that. We can make it horny. You can help me make it horny. Betty Dodson would want you to help me make it horny.
Pussy - 7/10. Gets some points for being a classic, and its decent sounding. But the “s” sounds aren’t the best, especially alongside the “p” sound. Its just a little too harsh and kind of juvenile. Good for a laff.
Punani et al. - 2 to 7/10. Gets cool points for being a descendant of the Akan language through Jamaican creole. Gets a range of points because I’m grouping poontang (bad word to say and hear) in with punani (a clear 7)
Labia - 10/10. Vulva’s lovely twin. Another word you could sing. The “b” sound isn’t offputting- it flows nicely between the elegant “L” and “ia.” Again, a bit clinical, but so good to say. Labia (the word and the body part) deserve more love.
Fanny - 0/10. Pussy’s worse sounding cousin. Replacing the “s” sounds with “n” removes the flow of pussy, which makes this the yonic-linguistic equivalent of going down a dry waterslide.
Cunt - 10/10. Its like a punch in a good way. Not too harsh, but makes its point clearly; a well-rounded sound. Can be comedic and horny but its not too unserious. Good mouthfeel. I’m a big cunt fan. Can also be an insult, but such is the way of sex organs. Such a versatile word.
Coochie - 4/10. Sorry to the coochie lovers out there but my god? The “ch” sound? Awful to hear. Get that out of my genitalia. Gets points for comedic use, which I respect.
Twat - 2/10. Sounds like the sound made when Batman decks some guy in the face. The “t” sounds here are just unpleasant, and when combined with “æ” it gets worse. Sorry Brits & co. </3
Clitoris / Clit - 9/10. Important organ we all know and love. Both long & short versions sound good, although I think it could be smoother. Way better clinical term than vagina, but I wish we had wider options for him.
Snatch - 3/10. I’m not a fan of the sounds at play here (once again, get “ch” out of here), but I find this word really funny. I cannot imagine this being used hornily. It sounds like the name of a delightful cryptid.
Quim - 4/10. What are you, from the 1700s? I think it sounds alright, the “q” isn’t abrasive, but unless you are writing historical fiction it just doesn’t sound right.
Any and All Metaphorical Words - 1/10. Never work outside of extremely horny contexts or jokes. Gets one point for extremely horny contexts and jokes.
Cunny - 7/10. Also better when used in historical context, but the hard “c” + “n” is like if you took that dry waterslide and made it wet. Its like cunt’s cool ancestor. Good speaking and hearing experience, lets bring it back. Cunnyboy summer.
Great news, SAG-AFTRA has created an influencer hub for anyone trying to figure out what they should or should not be doing as a person who makes things on the internet during the strike.
Bad news, I have already SEEN WITH MY OWN TWO EYES people in fandoms I talk about and participate in spreading misinformation that these guidelines are only for union influencers. This is not true, it’s for all of us.
Solidarity in this case looks like no organically talking about, cosplaying from, accepting brand deals to promote works from struck companies. I am begging, covered in blood and sweat, I have run all the way here I have been running for years, listen to the official union sources and act accordingly or be prepared for the people who make those things you love to view you quite differently.
to further clarify, influencer in this case (per sag aftras definition) is a person who makes money from ads/brand deals on social media
op is talking to those people. fans keep doing ur thing ✌
I love that he apparently got the job because he looked so pathetic that children truly believed he would be unable to solve puzzles created by a cartoon dog without their assistance.
kids really said “i can fix him”
#it is a mix of being pathetic but also like #from the look of things #Steve seemed like he actually cared in the test recording unlike heartthrob guy and I am certain kids latch onto that #like. Steve Blues Clues takes kids Seriously and all (via @carnival-core)
BTW for anyone too lazy to do the math a wage of $125 a day works out to about $15/hour for an 8-hour workday so….. someone in 1923 definitely had a vision of the future
my brother started calling our cat “doobie brother” which he then lengthened to “dubious brother” and has since morphed into “brother dubious” like he’s some sort of fucked up little monk
found the artist’s name in the notes and went looking because this slaps (it’s called A Place Where I’ll Dance) and its not even their best song. check this shit out:
