It's Absolutely The Results That Count. Even If Your Soul Isn't Pure, Helping Other People Is Still A

YES.

We don't have perfect candidates. It sucks, but yielding the game to the far right would such SO MUCH MORE. And the mediocre people we get in office still manage to do SOME good, as my having health insurance will testify.

sorry but i want to hit every american talking about not wanting to vote democrat anymore with hammers. lol

100% true. Overcoming what holds you back should be celebrated.

This is, like, almost everyone in the Northern hemisphere lately, right?  LEARN IT.

if you are dealing with extreme heat or even just. moderate heat in your area right now. 80f/26c is when it starts getting toasty for a lot of people. if you are in a heat wave and you have not done yourself the favor of googling fucking "heat exhaustion symptoms" i am shaking you violently right now. look it up. burn the symptoms into your brain. heatstroke is no joke and it can and WILL sneak up on you before you're aware it's even an issue. ohh my god

God, yes. We have to fight as hard as we can, no matter where we are. The stakes are too high this time.

Any red state can turn blue if enough voters turn out.

I mean, we all need a break sometimes, right?

reblog to give the person you reblogged this from a fucking break

Yeah, it was always obvious where they were going.  This is why unity matters in opposing bigotry; the leopards will always eat your face, too.

There's a reason the state starts by going after the people you refuse to respect

For a number of years, I helped run (read "was an incredibly minor cog in the vast machine that was) an anime con at a big convention center. Being an anime con, there were, of course, tons of cosplayers, and a number of costumes that fit somewhere or another in the "Furry" spectrum. And in the con's message board, some people were *incredibly* worked up over the notions that furries would attend the convention. Like, telling us that if we didn't keep the furries out, they'd have orgies in the middle of the lobby.

It was so, so stupid.

But I can't just dismiss that as stupidity any more-- not after someone literally used chemical warfare to attack Midwest Fur Fest.

Seriously, what is WRONG with these people? Let furries be furry. I promise you that they don't have orgies in public; the hotel staff wouldn't let them and, worse, they might damage their expensive fursuits!

tired of those normies making the most reactionary videos on furries, as if the community doesn't mostly consist of queer, neurodivergent, and kink positive folks of many difficult backgrounds.

The biologist is correct, too.

Organic Chemist: Everything left of the staircase on the periodic table is metal.

Inorganic Chemist: Actually, boron, carbon, aluminum, silicon, arsenic, tellurium, and astatine are metalloids

Astronomer: Everything but hydrogen and helium have metallicity.

Physicist: all nonmetals become metallic under very high pressure and low temperature.

Biologist: I think there's like one type of snail that has some metal in their shells 🤷
