“how is peppermint patty a lesbian if she has a crush on charlie brown” like you don’t know any lesbians who are obsessed with some weird sad little guy
something that rly creeps me out…..occasionally ill see videos or articles for christians or christian missionaries that say something like “what you need to do is make friends with non christians and really get them to trust you and THEN you start preaching to them and bringing them to jesus” and that is….man how much would it hurt to know that the only reason someone’s hanging out with you is to convert you to a religion you were never interested in. maybe this is a real friend, someone you really really feel like you connect to, and all of a sudden you cant hang out with them without being scared they’ll bring out the jesus stuff.
hahahaha like a year ago I tweeted “Christianity’s attitude toward Jews resembles nothing so much as the attitude of a man toward a woman who won’t fuck him” and people got SO MAD at me
I just saw something that looks very mundane but is extremely rare and incredible. Details later, gotta drive home.
OKAY SO
The plan was to go there friday, but as you recall, I got lost in the forest looking for cool rocks and there just wasn’t time. So I took the detour on my way back.
Here is the setting. We are at the bottom of a disused quarry. We took an hour detour and walked here for a little while and maybe you don’t really know why I’m excited yet.
At first, unless you’re a geology geek (I am not, btw), you might just be thinking, ah, rocks.
But what if we move closer?
Okay, big slab of rock. Some cracks and pockets in it. And?
Come even closer.
What’s the big deal? It’s just a rock with some marks in it. It looks so boring and ordinary and why did I even drag you to this quarry and am making you look at boring rocks?
Because. COME CLOSER.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT?
TOUCH THE LITTLE ROUND MARKS IN THE ROCK. PUT YOUR HAND OVER THEM AND FEEL THE RUSH OF HISTORY.
I AM SORRY TO BE YELLING BUT I AM VERY EXCITED.
YOU ARE LOOKING AT THE FOSSILISED FOOTPRINTS OF…
OUR ANCESTOR!
OKAY OKAY I had to add the meme for effect BUT this wouldn’t be the one in the picture, who is still a fish with fins. The tracks belong to a creature with four legs : A TETRAPOD!
Who may have looked and walked like this:
YES!!!!!These little pocks in the rock are footprints that show the path of a tetrapod crawling out of the sea, and they are approximately 495 million years old!!!
Why did the tetrapod come out of the water? Well, apparently there were invertebrates to feed on, and they left marks too:
So that was the coolest thing I saw this year for sure :D
Is it verified that it's authentic? Because if so that is incredible
Oh, yeah!!! I can't believe that after all that I didn't include any links to the info about it???
The tracks I saw are in Zachełmie in Poland :
and are a fairly recent discovery from 2010 so scientists are still arguing about what they mean for evolution history, but they ARE real.
I didn't find these myself, there are helpful signposts in the area that just say 'TETRAPOD', but you have to be curious or know what you're after to find the place.
🥰
It’s finally happened.
After almost a decade on this site, I found another Tumblr user in the wild. I stopped to tie my shoe with rainbow laces this morning outside the silversmith at Colonial Williamsburg, and I heard it.
“I like your shoelaces.”
Oh. Oh no.
I responded the only way I could. “Thanks.” And then I reluctantly added, “I stole them from the president…and if that makes sense to you, I’m very sorry.”
The poor man, in full Colonial dress, stared at me for a long moment. And then burst into laughter. And said, “I haven’t thought about that in YEARS and this has never happened to me before.”
Yeah. Me neither. Not until today.
Tumblr rite of passage. Achievement unlocked.
@victoriansecret I found your friend!!!
THIS IS AMAZING
New Users, please do this in public just to see what happens.

you are literally so dumb and need to get offline if you genuinely think people shouldnt reblog your posts while trigger tagging slurs for people who are triggered by them. your original post was great but some people are straight up triggered by those slurs and it hurts no one to be considerate. go get some fresh air or take a shower or something and think about why that upsets you so much you pathetic weirdo

babe I am in my mid twenties with a masters degree emphasis in queer history. you are a 28 y/o who still thinks aces and pansexuals are the problem in this community.
my stance: if you don’t like the words, don’t reblog the post. if you think the words will bother your followers, don’t reblog the post. everyone is responsible for curating their own internet experience. end of.
in none of that did I say I don’t care about other people’s trauma. I have plenty of queer trauma too. You are trying so hard to read my post in bad faith and it shows.
my unpopular opinion is that i hate tiktok because now people just publicly watch loud ass videos in public spaces with no regard for anyone else. 100% it was not this bad with youtube, it’s such a different thing with tiktok. put on headphones. you are grown.
This is it! This is what social media/smart tech have done! They’ve rotted away any distinction between private and public.
Yes, we do have the right to make demands on public behavior. Of course we do. Have you never heard of laws and etiquette? I’m not allowed to grocery shop naked. You can’t rummage through my purse. I can’t have a work meeting in the middle of a movie theatre.
I remember when it was taboo simply to answer your cell phone in public. The person answering would apologize and try to go to a more private area. Then public calls were normalized. Then putting people on speaker. Then listening to music without headphones. Do you know how many times I have hiked up a mountain or driven to the beach, only to be met with someone blaring shitty top 40 music from their portable speaker, because Heaven forbid you go one hour without noise?
Old woman yells at cloud and all that, but I can’t believe someone is not only admitting this behavior, but saying it’s a good thing! No one likes you! You’re a menace!
BEING INCONSIDERATE OF OTHERS IS STILL BAD.
It was obnoxious when it was youtube.
It was obnoxious when it was music.
It was obnoxious when it was the radio.
It was obnoxious when it was dudes wanting to talk to you instead of letting you just read your freaking book.
Do you want to be this guy? Because being obnoxious in shared spaces is how you become this guy.
Wear your damn headphones like an adult participant in the social contract.
Best art history lesson ever, thank you
I love you grandmother who helped me pin a trans flag to my battle vest, I love you leather daddies checking on us, I love you trans dykes driving the forklift loaded with water and ice, I love you queer kids in your renfair outfits, I love you faggot punks sizing up the cops, I love you drag queens laughing in the dressing room, I love you i love you I love you I love y
I feel cheated. no one on Reddit told me that tumblr is a serotonin factory. Keep liking and reblogging my posts please thanks
Just don't fly too close to the sun.
Throw me to the sun and I’ll get it pregnant

one time i went up to my friend (also my coworker) and gave him hug from behind and just like held him there for a moment and our one regular client walked in and was like “huh….so are you guys like….winnie the pooh and piglet?” and i lost my fucking mind. what does that mean. i also said yes and that i was pooh.
me and this coworker are now dating and the same client client came into today and was like “sooo winnie the pooh and piglet?” again so we asked him what he meant and apparently those were the only two male fictional characters he could think of that hug
