i boosted this site earlier but i think it deserves more explanation. this is a search engine for images that shows you the copyright status for the image right there front and center and you can filter for them. for instance i grabbed this copyright 0 image of an echidna from there. and it even generated a citation for me: "Echidna on the move" by CazzJj is marked with CC0 1.0. i think this is a really easy way for getting a reference image while ensuring the person who took the image consents to its use! https://openverse.org/

many parents are concerned that not enough bricks have been thrown through the windows of the new york times

Wild bun was enjoying some cabbage when surprised by ANOTHER wild bun! 😲 After rubbing noses it was established that they know each other and then they shared a meal together, the end 😍

When asking your #autistic friend how they figured out that they are, in fact, autistic, keep this in mind:

Autism is defined as a collection of traits. Each trait, when viewed in isolation, can seem perfectly innocuous.

So when your friend gives an example of something they struggle with, you might be tempted to say, "but I do that too, and I'm not autistic" or "but everyone does that".

Your friend is only sharing a small fraction of the long list of ways in which they're different. That list is always very long, and kind of personal too. It's also difficult (and sometimes embarrassing) to convey the intensity of each item on that list.

Autistic people who weren't diagnosed in childhood frequently struggle with autistic imposter syndrome, and your kindly meant "well, everyone's a bit on the spectrum" or "you don't seem autistic!" can be painful and invalidating.

What. The. Fuck.

Een meerderheid van de Tweede Kamer heeft ingestemd met een motie van de fascistische partij JA21 om asielzoekers naar Rwanda te sturen. Kritiekpunten waren vooral dat het praktisch niet uitvoerbaar is... Dat het in strijd met de mensenrechten en meerdere Europese en andere internationale verdragen is heeft de Tweede kamer kennelijk niet tegengehouden.

Naast verbazing ben ik gewoon bang. Een dergelijk plan is al eens eerder geopperd. Toen was het Madagascar waar de Nazi's alle Joden heen wilden sturen. Dat bleek alleen praktisch niet haalbaar, zoals er nu ook vooral praktische bezwaren zijn geuit tegen het Rwandaplan. De volgende stap waren concentratiekampen...

Laat dat even tot je doordringen. De Tweede Kamer is één stap verwijderd van het creëren van concentratiekampen.

headline: in defense of the brick throwers

“i just think it’s weird that it hasn’t happened yet. all those in tact windows for so long. it’s unnatural. i have serious questions” says children’s music performer, the blue wiggle

Gal Bardot, president of the Percussive Buillding Ventillation Institute says bricks through windows can have many positive mental health outcomes

we should empathetically, and with deep detailed coverage, from all sides, discuss the brick through the new york times window issue

(edit: this is satire, please don’t throw bricks through anyone’s windows)

If you wanted to spend just one minute talking to every person on the planet, it would take you more than 200 lifetimes to do so*.

So don’t waste even a minute on some cynical troll or sea lion.

Block and move on.

Life’s too short and there are countless people out there more worthy of your time.
