actually can we as a community please talk a bit more about how we don't allow people to be neutral on things for some reason. can we talk about how messed up that is.
expecting people to feel very strongly even on things they're not educated on is super dangerous and unhealthy, especially for people who are mentally ill. not just one kind either; the indecisive people, the people with black and white thinking, the people who already have an incredibly hard time not feeling super strongly on something.
it encourages people to basically take a huge stand on something for the sake of not being ostracized and nothing else, and it's just so messed up. it leads to both them getting hurt, AND a higher likelihood for misinformation.
Link: Hey Pipit, Cawlin gave me a love letter to deliver to Karane.
Pipit: What?! He did?! Well, um...
Link: Don't worry, I didn't give it to her. I know you like her. I gave it to the ghost who haunts the bathroom at night.
Pipit, who takes nightly patrols and knows exactly who Link is talking about: ...
Link: So the ghost fell in love with him and now haunts him at night. She gives him nightmares.
Pipit: Who hurt you?
Link: Cawlin and his friends did, were you not paying attention?
here, take these mushroom photos to feed your obsession.
genuinely so fucking tired of people leveraging the "groomer" argument against people who support sex ed because scientific literature over decades shows that comprehensive sex education starting around kindergarten actually prevents children from being sexually abused and groomed because it teaches children the correct words for their body parts and also teaches them concepts of privacy, personal space, bodily autonomy, the difference between appropriate and inappropriate touching, and the fact that sex is something that only adults do. children with this knowledge are not only better equipped to identify abuse and predatory behavior and communicate that its happening to a trusted adult, but also prevent it from happening in the first place by recognizing when something is happening that shouldn't.
sex education does not sexualize children, it prevents children from being sexualized. anyone who is against early foundational sex education and claims they are doing it to protect children is a fucking liar.
I can't fathom how utterly selfish you have to be to get rid of an animal's needed function to survive comfortably just because, "I don't want my house to be ruined." This should be considered animal abuse and I'm so glad people are now bringing light to this.
I legit can’t fathom why declawing is still legal. Why is it still legal to amputate part of an animal’s toes just because humans get annoyed with a natural behavior that is so deeply ingrained that it continues even after they’re removed? Declawing causes chronic pain, behavior issues, and disrupts natural behaviors. And because someone always gives the “hurr durr but what if there’s a medical reason” let me explain. Declawing is NOT the same as a toe amputation. Banning declawing doesn’t ban toe amputations. Declawing is an elective procedure that removes all the front (and sometimes all the back) distal most part of the toes. Toe amputations remove diseased tissue/bone. There’s a huge difference between taking off a toe (or toes) because they’re growing a tumor and amputating bones for human convenience.
Turning Red was so freaking cuuuute and fun!! ✨💕
Ugh, as if the early 2000's nostalgia didn't have me in a chokehold enough already..

I'm a horrible person. I feel like somethings wrong with me I can't pin point it but I feel like somethings there. something, I don't know. I can't talk about neurodiversity or mental health because I tense up and start freaking out because I start thinking about what I use to think about myself. I try my best not to think about those things since I have in the past and I dug myself into a pit of self hate. I don't know what to do because I feel like questioning those things make me one of those kids who just take something very small from themselves and tell everyone they are neurodivergent. I can't do this anymore, and I faking all of this? Did I make it up? I remember last year I realized that people didn't like my personality so I made up a whole new one. I don't know who I am anymore. All I know is that something is wrong but I can't do anything to help it. So I'm stuck in a cycle.
Stanford’s second solar generating plant went online this month, completing the university’s years-long transition to 100 percent renewable electricity and marking a major milestone in its larger journey to reach net zero carbon emissions on campus.

Stanford Solar Generating Station #2 (SSGS2), Stanford’s portion of a larger solar and energy storage project called Slate, began commercial operation in mid-March. The 63-megawatt solar photovoltaic plant sits on approximately 420 acres in Central California, near Lemoore.
The station serves as the final component in the Stanford Energy System Innovations (SESI), a complete redesign and transition of Stanford University’s energy system from a 100 percent fossil fuel-based, combined heat and power plant to grid-sourced electricity and a more efficient electric heat recovery system.
