it’s my earnestly held belief that every human person holds within them an invisible timer that counts up from the last time they stuck their feet in a body of water and the higher that number gets the more sludge builds up in their brain and in their heart

Reminder that steam is not only “no longer supporting windows 7” ,. they will be actively disabling all clients on this OS by end of this year. No, you can’t run offline. No, you can’t run the games standalone. The official steam position is go fuck yourself.
Their reasoning is due to intertwinement with some google features, which imo is just making it even fucking worse, because why the fuck do google need to be involved in me playing a game I bought in 2013? And why do they get to say I can no longer access this game?
If you want a workaround, hit up this but in future, just use GOG.
This isn’t about the OS, so don’t even start with me. Deliberately disabling access to items you’ve already purchased with no recourse is the highest order of bullshit.
Look, I actively write companies when they pull stupid shit like this and ask “So, you want people to steal your shit? Because, this is why people steal your shit.”
And, they ignore me because I’m a tiny voice, and also, they think they can keep people from stealing their shit.
I see a lot of ‘cis’ women say they wish they were androgynous in the way men were or they wish they were pretty in the way men were. This is your sign to go try to do that. You may find you enjoy being an androgynous woman. You may find you no longer identify as a woman. You may find you don’t like androgyny. You will not know until you try. Cut your hair if you’ve always wanted to but have been afraid to. Shop in the men’s section if you’ve been too nervous to. Wear clothing with an androgynous  silhouette. Experiment with binding, take baby steps with compression bras if you want. Wear unisex scents. Live life. Try things you want to try. A lot of cis women do not understand the joys of mens pants and mens deodorant. I think everyone should try both of those things.
Some mountain paintings from last year! I never posted them. o: Also, the 3 first ones were exhibited at Gallery Nucleus Portland last fall! I think the first one sold, but the 2 others are still available if I’m not mistaken.
Prince Rupert’s drops are toughened glass beads created by dripping molten glass into cold water, which causes it to solidify into a tadpole-shaped droplet with a long, thin tail. These droplets are characterized internally by very high residual stresses, which give rise to counter-intuitive properties, such as the ability to withstand a blow from a hammer or a bullet on the bulbous end without breaking, while exhibiting explosive disintegration if the tail end is even slightly damaged.
In nature, similar structures are produced under certain conditions in volcanic lava
Anon, when I first saw this ask, I thought it was going to be one of those mixers of nice, traditional sounds, like rain or a coffeeshop. And it is! And there’s lofi hiphop, my favorite sound to write to! Which means this is legitimately an excellent tool for writers, and I love you for introducing it to me.
But I also want to say. There are some choices here. That I need to point out. Because they’re either fantastic or questionable, and I can’t decide.
