so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god
Fair warning, this one's kind of a long one.
Recently my local Walmart put the condoms and sex toys behind a glass case and to access them you need to press the button to call someone over and open the case.
I hate that they did this. It stigmatizes safe sex because no longer is it something that can be done discretely and privately, now if you want to by condoms you have to bring a whole other human being into the process. Some people would rather die than pick out a box of condoms or a sex toy in front of a random stranger.
This is especially bad for minors. Imagine you're a 16 year old who's gonna lose their virginity that night. You're not stupid so you got to your local Wally world to purchase a box of rubbers. You can even use the self checkout! Simple, easy, no one has to see you do it and you don't have to face any judgment. Only to get there and realize in horror that you have to ask someone to open the box so you can get the condoms, and you're to nervous to do it.
Even though there are probably no consequences, still, having to ask an adult, and authority figure, for permission to do something that you know is a major social faux pas is a terrifying thought for a minor. Hell, I'm an adult and even I'd have a hard time doing that.
You see how this is bad? It makes people afraid to make smart decisions and be safe because they might face judgment for it. Making condoms harder to access is not going to make teenagers have less sex, it's going to make them have more unsafe sex.
Same with sex toys. Having a little fun in the bedroom should not be something you need anybody else's approval to do.
Having safe sex should not be stigmatized.
Having good sex should not be stigmatized.
If I were to make a list of things I feel it's ok to steel, condoms would be number three. Right under food and medicine.
Anyway, fuck Walmart for doing that. Condoms should be cheap, easy, and stress free to access for everyone.
Part of the reason I love the design of the Jaegers (and mechs in general) so much is because they're so massive that they're not even suites any more. It doesn't have to be conceivable that a human would fit in them because they're just big buff metal guys that beat up monsters.

Realized I have free will, and that I can’t wait for inspiration to find me because then I’d never draw. I’m glad I forced myself to draw today, because I remembered how much I love to create.
Why is saying Jesus Christ worse than saying Judas Priest?
Like Jesus was the good guy. Why is saying his name bad? Judas was the guy who killed Jesus. Why is saying his name more ok?
Apply this same logic to any other assassination and it's weird.

It's super fun to eat plants in front of people who didn't know you could eat that plant. One time at work I bent down, picked a stem off a plant, and ate it right there. Right off the ground. And all my coworkers just looked at me like

This guy is my new hero. I LOVE learning about native food plants that just grow everywhere without human help.
The database is a little clunky to use (especially on a phone), but still loads of excellent information.
Absolutely despicable kaomoji thanks for that deonis 👍
