they could definitely do a little more to sexualise wearing sunblock in this country, considering Australia holds the highest rates of cancer for both men AND women. like sunblock makes you look so silky, shiny and oily. it’s hot. my muscles look EXTRA nice with it lathered on. honestly come on cancer council. start appealing to the slutty queers smh
It also smells like summertime, and summertime is just an excuse to walk around half-naked, glistening. you’re 100% onto something here
people really just walk into horror movies and expect them not to deal with uncomfortable things despite the genre being dedicated to discomfort.
i saw so many people complain that lisa frankenstein, a movie where one of the leads is famously a rotting corpse, was too gross for them. when i walked out of nosferatu, i heard people say that the nudity was uncalled for… in a vampire film. nudity? in MY gothic horror?! unheard of!
a LOT of people really need to accept that maybe some genres just aren’t to their taste, idk. not every movie needs to be cookie-cutter clean. sexuality is a staple of gothic horror, if not the wider genre horror in General. you don’t need to enjoy it, but it doesn’t make these things uncalled for.
Lowkey fascinated (positive) with your turn of phrase here. “Loadbearing taboo.” I am rotating it in my mind

This isn’t technically good news, but I wanted to highlight it, because it underscores a DEEPLY important thing to understand about the news and social media in their current forms: They are warping people’s perception of reality. Bad news gets shared more, gets reported more, and gets highlighted more. People think that means there IS more bad news than good news, and that is simply not true. There are lots of good resources for finding good news, and you should seek it out for yourself to get a more accurate understanding of the world we all live in.
I think you can tell a lot about how rigorous and committed someone’s belief in a human right is by how quickly they are able to name people who they think could or should have that right taken away.
Like “X is a universal human right. (This doesn’t include Y people though)”
Either you think X isn’t actually a human right, or you think Y aren’t people.
Some folks really did go straight to the replies to prove me right.
Did you know that ‘recycling’ is step 6 of the 7 Rs of sustainability? The other R’s are just as important even if they are often forgotten.
Rethink-
Do I really need to buy this? The point of this step is to stop and think.
Refuse-
Does this product damage the environment? If so, refuse to spend your money on it. i.e. single use plastics, harsh chemicals
Reduce-
How much of this do I really need? Buy less! Buy in bulk when you can as it often equals less packaging to throw out.
Reuse-
Can I use this product again? Can I fix what I have so that I don’t need to buy something new? Reuse that plastic water bottle a few times. And instead of buying new, try thrift shopping, flea markets, yard sales etc.
Repurpose- Unlimited creativity! Does this item have another use? i.e. old torn clothes can be rags or plastic cups can be planters.
Recycle- Can I recycle this? Not everything can be. There are also some important steps to making sure your recycling is done properly. If unsure, look up local recycling regulations.
Rot- Can I compost this? Food waste, yard clippings, newspapers and many other items can be composted instead of being tossed in the trash. Composting is surprisingly simple and helps reduce harmful greenhouse gasses from entering the atmosphere.
What is the point of the R’s? The number one benefit of the 7 R’s are the reduction of the amount of waste sent to incinerators and landfills. The EPA website provides a lot of useful information. Other benefits that we can reap from implementing these concepts in our life are (as listed on the EPA website): • Prevents pollution caused by reducing the need to harvest new raw materials • Saves energy from not making a new product • Reduces greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change • Helps sustain the environment and natural resources for future generations • Saves money from processing our waste • Increases economic security by tapping a domestic source of materials • Helps create jobs in the recycling and manufacturing industries in the United States
they call me the you didn’t say dibs killer. when i see someone’s about to become a murderer i show up and kill the victim first because they didn’t say dibs. and due to a small oversight in the way morality is calculated i’m going to heaven no problem
