“If you don’t like raw aggression you shouldn’t be working at build a bear.” Might be one of the most chaotic things I’ve ever had the misfortune of reading
No offense i didnt spend my entire childhood being made fun of for my interests, fear judgement all the way through my teens and early adulthood, and learn to love what i love free of shame so I could be made to feel bad for enjoying something harmless because “the fandom ruined it/made it cringey”
The folks behind D&D just took a sledgehammer to one of my least favorite d&d tropes: The Drow
Now instead of being a society of nazi dominatrixes who are inherently and spiritually corrupt, the modal inspiration for the drow is now the late roman empire: where scheming, selfishness, and ambition were considered primary virtues, making it easy for any individual to conform to society if it means their own advancement.
Set against this is the now cannon ability for elves to change their sex at will, understood by many as a blessing by their creator. The drow, having being recast as a “darkly gendered” society, see this ability as taboo, rebellious, and inviting anarchy.
The creators have literally canonized questioning your gender as a heroic act set in opposition to one of the game’s baddest of big bads . I’m so proud of these nerds!
please please please teach your children to cook while they still live under your roof. even the most elementary things can’t be overlooked. because i just had to show my 24 year old boyfriend how to use a potato peeler and now i need to lay down for an hour
i hate this post because it just proves that like.. no simple statement can just be absorbed and the general population of tumblr go ‘yeah that sounds about right.’ i’ve had nazis say it’s a woman’s job to cook, terfs say that it’s only ‘males’ who don’t know how to cook, people have accused me of being classist because some people don’t own potatio peelers, called a bitch for airing out my boyfriend’s dirty laundry (which if the most embarrassing thing i can procure about the guy is that he’s not great in the kitchen i’d say he’s okay lmao)
just shut up and teach your fucking children to cook holy shit dude
My brother, a square bulk of a man in his mid-fifties who’s spent decades working in plumbing and air-conditioner maintenance, said he was going home to make dinner and the men he works with looked at him like he’d announced he was going home to do sorcery.
“You cook?”
He shrugged. “Well, I eat.”
Then he hopped on his Harley and roared home to cook dinner for his wife and kids.
Hank Green + his friends made a whole YouTube channel dedicated to videos explaining how to vote in every. single. state. None of them are longer than three and a half minutes. Deadlines to register are fast approaching in a lot of places so it’s incredibly important that everyone is well informed about what they need to do in order to exercise their right and make their voice heard. Go forth, America. Show up for what you believe in. Make good choices. Please.
