Inaccurate Skeleton Season is one of my favourite seasons

They’re terrible and I love them your honour.

Okay, not too egregious. I give poseable dog skeleton a 3/10. Ears are not bone, but otherwise the skull is….reasonable. Weirdly more or less the right number of vertebrae and ribs, save for the caudal ones which are a) too big and b) missing several. Something is extremely wrong with this dog’s pelvic girdle but I’ll allow it.

Ooo, 5/10. Tag says you are a cat, but that skull and proportions are giving me chihuahua or french bulldog vibes. Ears are not bony, but we again have roughly the right number of ribs and vertebrae, except for the tail, but oh man. This cat’s pelvis. Is fucked. Also baby why are your fibia/tibia and radius/ulna so short.

Now we’re getting into it! Solid 8/10. Tag says snake, but what the fuck. Sir what is wrong with your skull? Why is it so round? Who stole your ribs?? Your tail?? Are you sure you aren’t some kind of fucked up caecilian?

Ohhhhh, 9/10, look at this absolute unit. I figured out who stole the previous snake’s ribs, it was this alleged frog. In contrast to the cat and dog, this guy does not appear to possess a pelvic girdle at all. His skull was stolen from a fucked up gila monster. There are so many things wrong with the limbs that I can’t even describe them all. Why does he have so many vertebrae? Who stole his metacarpals? True mysteries of the universe.

And finally:

12/10. I did not bring this lad home because i already own a fucked up alleged spider skeleton, and even I can’t justify owning two of them. First issue, clearly, is that spiders…do not have bones. Second issue: why does this alleged spider appear to have 3-4 thorax segments. Why eight knees? What is happening with the attachment between the legs and the body? Why only two eyes? Spine on the abdomen but no spine in the thorax? Why are there fenestra in the…thoracic…bones? Genuinely, I would like to ask the designer of this so many questions, including whether they like. Looked. At any pictures of real spiders while making this.

Delightful. My favourite season. I am putting all of these in my office at work so that the other biologists can yell at them.

Ohhhh. Oh dear. Uhm.

sometimes you watch an episode of supernatural and you’re like “wow this is deeply profound portrayal of the cycle of abuse presented through religious subtext and commentary on american masculinity i will be thinking about the layered metaphors here for years to come” and sometimes you watch an episode and that episode is dog dean afternoon.

I highly appreciate the “happy ending” tag on angst fics, dark fics, etc. Its existence increases the probability of me reading by a significant amount

but some people are like “why even read those fics if you already know how they’re gonna end?”

Well, it’s kinda like going on a roller-coaster. I wanna experience the ride. The ups and the downs, the twists and turns. But I also wanna know that at the end, it’ll come to a safe stop and I’ll be able to get off of it completely unharmed

“You put porn in child safe spaces.” Then why do the “child safe spaces” have ratings and tags, Karen?

AO3 AND TUMBLR ARE NOT CHILD SAFE SPACES. Yes, it’s true that a lot of child safe spaces are being destroyed on the internet, but ao3 and tumblr are not those places and were never meant to be. LEARN TO CURATE YOUR OWN INTERNET EXPERIENCE OR GET OFF THE INTERNET.

psa for cis people: it’s not “women and people who menstruate,” it’s just people who menstruate. adding “women and” implies that

1. the only relevant women are (menstruating) cis women, so there’s no need to add any qualifiers (like “cis”)
2. womanhood is central to menstruation & menstruation is central to womanhood by unnecessarily bringing up gender right before using a gender neutral phrase

just say people who menstruate. women who menstruate are people. saying “women and people who menstruate” is a nonsense phrase that only serves to soothe the egos of cis women. they can cope with not having their ciswomanhood centered, I promise.

Also if you think that’s “too long”, sometimes you can just say people and the context implies that you’re talking about people who menstruate. A sentence like “people who menstruate should have better access to menstrual hygiene products” and “people should have better access to menstrual hygiene products” mean the same thing. “women with period cramps are so brave” and “people with period cramps are so brave” is another example. just using people in thag context makes it clear you mean people who menstruate.

Also fuck the weird trend of saying women, trans men and femmes to talk about people who menstruate. Or AFAB people. Not all AFABs menstruate not all women or trans men menstruate. And femmes has absolutely nothing to do with menstruation. It’s so baffling thag people genuinely think this is inclusive language.

people who don’t menstruate should also have access to period supplies so they can fetch them for friends and family. people who don’t get cramps should still know what’s a normal level of pain for their coworkers and employees to deal with, how to tell the difference between appendicitis and cramping in their best friend, when years of excruciating periods might indicate endometriosis in their sibling, what the safe amount of acetaminophen or ibuprofen is for their roommate. people who can’t get pregnant should still have access to affordable birth control and contraceptives–as well as knowing how common first trimester miscarriages are, to support their partners’ right to reproductive control.

everyone benefits from the assumption that men–even perisex cis men–should be involved in supporting and accommodating uterine care issues.

wake up babe, new reason to ditch FANDOM/Wikia just dropped

ALT

ALT

Previosuly

• corporate monster infested with ads which devoured Gamepedia and other companies (feat me on their shit policies, SEO and migration process)
• turning entire articles into ads if paid enough
• limited functionality preventing admins to even fight vandalism
• merging and removing of LGBT+ wikis (and forced domain change for educational [think serious] wikis to “fandom”)
• official wiki status has no meaning in controlling shit
• very much censorship (same good ol’ allergy to adult stuff)
• gets paid by US Navy to advertise their events (one, two)

Alternative free wiki hostings (aka wiki farms)

• Miraheze - started in 2015, non-commercial - no ads and runs on donations, wide array of MediaWiki features, wide array of allowed types of wikis and content, much autonomy for projects, custom domain and private wiki options
• wiki.gg - started in 2022 by former Gamepedia staff, limited to video games, accent on involvement of game devs and thus hosting official wikis, has ads for anons (but only of games having wikis here)
• Telepedia - started in 2022, limited to entertainment (although might allow other themes upon review), has ads for anons, replicates Miraheze structure
• WikiTide - started in 2023, no ads and runs on donations (but also tied w/ premium version called WikiForge), largely replicates Miraheze but has stricter content policies, custom domain option

Other free options I’m aware of are either too limited in allowed content or are very outdated/unstable in technical department to recommend here (or in case of Neoseeker - I’m completely unfamiliar with it, and can’t say anything about it), but you still can check them out, alongside paid hostings, on this MediaWiki page.

If you (or your community) are brave and dedicated enough you can go with self-hosted MediaWiki instance (aka independent hosting), like JoJo Wiki (who started on Wikia and succeed at overtaking the SEO) or NIWA wikis. This option, of course, requires funding and technical knowledge, but it’s still very much possible.

How to find existing alternative/independent wikis

• try to use “-fandom” filter for search query in Google, or use other search engines like Bing or DuckDuckGo
• Indie Wiki Buddy browser extension - it modifies search engine results and performs redirects based on its centralized list of independent wikis; a new indie wiki has to be requested/submitted to get added [ Firefox / Chrome ]
• Redirect to wiki.gg browser extension - same as IWB but for wikis moved to wiki.gg (as I understand, works automatically without dedicated listing) [ Firefox / Chrome ]
• (simple) Redirector browser extension - in case the wiki is neither on IWB or wiki.gg, and it doesn’t filter out search results - only performs redirect on whatever you get; a redirect has to be set manually - see this tutorial [ Firefox / Chrome ]

Fuck FANDOM, support real people, support indie wikis

I want to say that with trans folk now being at risk of the fucking death sentence in Florida….

The time for community is Now. The time to start planning and organizing how to get our rights back is NOW. bring it up at your local LGBT craft events or book club or support group or whatever. Tell your friends. Spread the word. And maybe see which ones will have the safety and resources you’ll need should a Lavender Hunt happen in your area.

And on the scarier end of reality….

This is fucking terrifying. Lots of people are at risk. Personally, I’m terrified this rhetoric will spread much like Trumpism did. I’m scared for my gf and I’m fucking scared for myself because we know historically that it isn’t just trans folk on HRT or drag performers that they go after.

And you have every right to do whatever you need to protect yourself.

I’m not going to shame folks who quit HRT, who take the rainbows out of their bio, the people who start saying partner instead of revealing a gender, or anyone else taking a few steps towards the safety that the closet provides. WE shouldn’t.

I fucking love you. And we’ll be okay as long as we’re together, okay?

We keep us safe

A New Florida Bill Could Spell Literal Death for Queer and Trans Citizens

Florida gets closer to Nazi Germany every day...

INTO

This is what I’m talking about for the people unaware.

I looked up the lavender scare last night and was sadly unsurprised to see that the last time the community came together…was a lavender scare.

Pride was a riot because the government started doing to us then what Florida is doing to us now. It was triggered when a man was fired from his job on grounds of being gay and tried to take it to court.

This is why we have pride. This is why “think of the children” is/was an awful rhetoric to push at leather daddies and drag queens. It’s not just a bad opinion or stupid discourse, it’s a talking point for the right wing to justify fucking kill us.

It was never “just discourse” it was a right wing psyop to cripple us from coming together to fight against attacks just like this.

Your enemies aren’t other queer people with labels you don’t like. Those are your allies. Because you know who else doesn’t like them?

Nazis.

And they don’t like you either even if you have a “normal” queer identity and you don’t make it “your whole personality” or whatever.

You’re both still queer. And that’s all they care about. Trying to placate bigots wont save you. Quit playing the part of “acceptable gay” and throwing everyone else under the bus.

Besides, that they WERE thinking of the children when they started those riots dressed in stuff that makes you squirm. They were thinking of You. Of your life. Your children. Queer children.

• Broke: think of the children
• Woke: think of where you’d be right now if Drag queens and leather daddies weren’t there to throw that first brick. Think about about all the other people currently at risk of being killed through the Same Exact method that you had the privilege of escaping, precisely because of the people you can’t stand.

Hey y'all please reblog this version so people can see the article and explanation, there are a few confused people only seeing earlier versions that dont explain the connection/threat because it doesn’t have the article.

An interstate rainbow railroad.

For those unaware that’s this. It’s been done before.

A lot of people are scared. And I really, really want you to know that the riots started because someone scared asked for help and people answered

It wasn’t organized. It just happened. People decided to risk it at a moments notice.

This is ours. And we’ve done it before.

Stormé Delariverie, the Stonewall Lesbian that triggered it all.

And everyone who was there for her.

Were just like us

So how do we do this?

I played that level in Mario Kart but that was it. I wanna be there for you, we all do, how do we do that?

I bet one of us could call and just ask. Who doesn’t have anxiety. Oh wait it’s posted on their site :)

Kinda reads like a How To 👀

Find your niche and offer it.

People need help, you figure out how/who can, and then you follow through.

• Can you drive
• have gas money
• have extra food
• Got some clothes or meds
• An extra bed or couch
• maybe even an extra property or hotel room to spare?
• Do you have money for those things?
• maybe you’re able to connect people with needs to people who can help?
• can you share/spread posts asking for help?
• Or may you can just make them some tea while the host of the house is out cuz they don’t want to be alone in a new place
• Maybe you keep up morale by just being hopeful
• can you somehow show that there are people who are taking steps to materially care for and support trans and other lgbta people in Florida?

What can You do?

Because you are not nearly as powerless as they want you to believe, especially with some help.

“ Your enemies aren’t other queer people with labels you don’t like. Those are your allies. Because you know who else doesn’t like them?

Nazis.

And they don’t like you either even if you have a "normal” queer identity and you don’t make it “your whole personality” or whatever.

Besides, that they WERE thinking of the children when they started those riots dressed in stuff that makes you squirm. They were thinking of You. Of your life. Your children. Queer children. “


I just wanted to point this itsy bitsy part out. because some people need to fucking listen to it.

This ENTIRE post is worth listening to, it doesn’t matter if your trans, or not. Please just fucking listen. For the queer kids and teens and for the adults and drag queens that are scared. Nobody should be scared to die. Not just in florida either.
