Being trans is literally like going “I got a tattoo of a cat bc they are my favorite animal :)” and then a nationwide movement is created to go “but do you have proof that cats are your favorite animal? If we don’t have objective proof that cats are your favorite animal how can we know it’s okay to let you permanently alter your body? We should make tattoo parlors illegal because people might get tattoos of things that aren’t their actual favorite animal” like you realize you all sound insane right

like 90% of all riddles only work because we don’t have the language to talk about them succinctly. is the ship of theseus still the ship of theseus if every piece of it has been replaced? well, its tribberly is intact but its quonk is gone. tribberly means the idea of something while quonk means the actual atoms that make it up, by the way. there riddle solved. “boohoo but you still haven’t answered the question; does a ship’s quonk or its tribberly determine whether it’s the ship of theseus?” subjective. figure it out amongst yourselves. it’s literally simple it’s subjective it depends on who you ask there’s nothing paradoxical here. “when a tree falls in the forest but nobody hears it, does it make a sound?” it makes a splornk but not a glibbitytoop. you absolute fuck

if you want to actually start to end homelessness, you need to give homeless people unconditional homes, including when we use them to do drugs or sit around drinking. either housing is unconditional or it isn’t

someone sitting at home alone, an active alcoholic, squandering your charity, drinking all day is better situation than a street homeless alcoholic. someone using drugs in your charity house is better than them doing the same w no shelter

most of you would not like most street homeless people, I definitely don’t and didn’t when I was street homeless. for every one person who uses unconditional shelter to turn themselves around, someone else will do jack shit and very slowly, if ever, work through the issues that made them homeless, will maybe never be able to live independently. still better than street homelessness, still worth doing. ultimately either you believe that shelter should be universal or you don’t

homeless people actually can’t be rehabilitated if you want to end homelessness. we either affirm the right to shelter for the worst drunken, lying, filthy, cheating, self destructive homeless people that exist, genuinely irredeemable wankers, or we concede that shelter is not a right

time for tumblr’s incomprehensible ads but make it SEASONAL

“Hello,” she said in a voice so husky it could pull a dogsled.

issue: the kittens are still trying to learn words. gus knows his name and daisy knows hers, but they don’t seem to quite grasp that when I say “babies!” im referring to both of them.

hypothesis: “babies” is too similar to “daisy” and they’re getting confused

test: start saying “gamers” instead

Outcome: they’re understanding it and it’s hysterically funny
