Having of mostly grown up in western Washington state with regular trips back to Australia due to family being from here, I entirely get the point about all of the other creatures, but while I occasionally hear rumour of them being territorial, which is concerning, my understanding of rattlesnakes is "their like regular snakes, but their harder to step on and get bit, because loud."
im posting this too actually because im right and you all gotta fucking understand this
The ones for things other than Autism are worse - I tried to take a self-fill one for distinguishing dissociative disorders from each other and easily confused disorders, and it just went such that about a third of the way through, I had declared that so many of the questions were clearly related to known issues not included in the test, were just plain not applicable, or, worse, probably but not certainly refered to a particular model of DID, that it defacto invalidated the measure.
Speaking as someone who's a. a technical writer, and b. on the spectrum, I 100% agree that the wording of most autism self-assessment schemas sucks, but fixing that is also a legitimately hard problem. Identifying neurotypes boils down to identifying habitual patterns of behaviour, and one of the frequent hallmarks of autism is having difficulty generalising from anecdotal observations to identify trends. The upshot is that an autism self-assessment that wants to be useful to its target audience is very often going to find itself in the position of trying to explain what a habitual pattern of behaviour is to someone for whom the only discernible patterns are "Every Time Forever Without Exception" and "A Series of Isolated Incidents".
Tumblr Code.
Ha! Nice, always good to have folk with blades. Damian was my first result there, and well... quite frankly, it may of resonated more if not for the fact that it starts with that, because my system has taken to minimizing the number of sharp blades around, as most suicidal or severely self-harmy system members just give up if they can't find a nice knife. But the blades are still needed, so its nice that someone has them.
Making a "Which Batfam member are you"? but im basically calling people out- its so much fun >:)
Now just gotta finish the result summaries <33
Seeing people posting the full results instead of just the character they got - I somehow got the result that resonates the second least, followed by the one that resonates third least, so I suspect OP and I have very different understandings of these questions.

Given the tone, Vaseline in place of dip. The other way around isn't Great, but it's not enough to cause a drama post, unless you're allergic, in which case why even have the dip somewhere you could think it something you could have.
struggling to comprehend the scale of the mistake I almost just made
Checked again. Ah. I must've missed it. Happens. Feels bad.
I don't want to reblog off that one, since it makes me feel more awkward than this, but I'm not clear on how the 'John Wayne' thing relates to what you were saying? Like, at a glance it misgenders a good deal of folk, and usage of a name as a shorthand, especially a non-mythological one, feels like a bad idea, and frankly it feels like it shouldn't of been attached to that post, but having of seen your response to it, I wind up wanting clarification.
What
Tumblr adding polls was the best thing because it doesn’t matter what you’re asking, tumblr users LOVE sharing their opinions. You could ask something wildly abstract like “What cardinal direction do you associate with the person you reblogged this from?” and by the end of the day it’ll have 20k notes and there’s probably some kind of discourse happening in the replies.
Baptized in bin juice. Ringed in trash fire! The Gobling Sage
Especially since one of those cream states is in the middle of a bunch of much darker ones.
As you know, you can make writers lives easier by doing unnecessary exposition scenes in real life, thereby making them realistic.
All at once? Yeah, that sounds cool, I wanna see that.
i keep seeing cop!dick posts on here so lemme just-
I chose the 1000 because that's too many stars on tax free.
Explain your reasoning plzzz
in mesopotamia there were no 'cover letters' or 'curriculum vitaes'. there were just, pots.
Hug is very winning. I prefer adopt, but advise voting hug, as kill is in second place.
I think I'd need to see what everyone in 80s workout clothes looks like to judge. Is that 80s workout clothes? It looks nice.
Definite huge fashion success no further questions
Honestly, it's cause for celebration that I don't just put everyone in eighties workout clothes. Or maybe not doing that is a cause for despair? Results may vary.
Hilarious. I expected the last one to be screaming and it isn't, so that was nice.
i just realized that tumblr allows multiple audio files in a row and they autoplay consecutively on mobile
So I just saw a post by a random personal blog that said “don’t follow me if we never even had a conversation before” and?????? Not to be rude but literally what the fuck??????????
I’ve had people (non-pornbots) try to strike conversation out of nowhere in my DMs recently, and now I’m wondering if they were doing that because they wanted to follow me and thought they needed to interact first. I feel compelled to say, just in case, that it’s totally okay to follow this blog (or my side blog, for that matter) even if we’ve never talked before.
Also, I’m legit confused. Is this how follow culture works right now? It was worded like it’s common sense but is that really a thing?
I don't know if 'demon from fiction where demons aren't contrasted to angels' should count given the nature of this poll, and we don't know what the heck our spiritual introject is, really, so...
(Oldest meaning how long they've been a system member. Best estimates are fine if you aren't sure.)
Am I getting a good grade in tumblr mutual?
Having of seen a lot of support for both sides of the conflict, I have gotten the impression that Israel is using stratagems and tactics suggested by the USA, leading to nastier outcomes.
Meanwhile, I conclude that HAMAS is probably dangerously slow on the uptake here. Like - I doubt that their an outright suicide cult? And at this point I do have to exclude a portion of what is said about their actions as outright lies, too, but there's definitely enough evidence to say dangerously slow on the uptake.
Also, regarding the blog support - its very weird to be hammering in on the phrase "HAMAS is the democratically elected government of Gaza" like a lot of the more active pro-Israel bloggers have. Assuming that that's truthful in every word and implication, even a landslide election only suggests some 70% or so support, with more normal elections, regardless of particular system, having 55% to 60% or so support. In other words, that doesn't justify anything one may be trying to justify that way. (And its pretty darn clear your trying to justify something with that phrase, even if I'm not sure what most of the time.)
On the other side of things, its odd that those favoring a palestinian government are taking that 30k number as absolute. Under current conditions, there is for sure no way for HAMAS to provide accurate casualty statistics, and while Israel may be able to provide total casualty statistics, if it cares to do so (it probably doesn't, and most likely instead only counts direct kills), it probably doesn't have any way to reliably distinguish civilian and military kills.
Leeches are small to medium though?
I opened one. Thought it was a daily? And I tend to forget about those.
if you opened discord’s april fools day loot boxes how long did it take you to get all the items? it took my friend 18 boxes but me 65 and i want to see how bad my luck is
