on god, i’m waking up january first with a healthy dose of serotonin and a functioning attention span. like, this entire past decade has just been a fluke, you mark my words. i have planted the seed and i will see the fucking harvest!
This good boy is a chimera, which is an animal that is genetically two animals, in this case he’s a yellow and black lab. This means he is twice the good boy. (Not my picture, found on Facebook)
this is by far the least upsetting dog chimera I’ve ever seen

that thing looks ridiculous. Why not just put it in the cabinet above the sink??
Every single finnish person is laughing at you peasants
its a dish drying set up?? im not about to put wet dishes in the cupboard? who does that?
hi
welcome to finland, this exists in every single household in finland
the water is still gonna drip into the bottom of the cabinet??? or onto the dishes below? i would rather let my dishes dry on the counter/above the sink for sure. also i moved to europe this year and lemme tell you i prefer a stack of plates over this vertical bookshelf style arrangement any day, it is annoying as fuck
Did you not notice that there is no bottom shelf? Also it is above the sink so the water won’t drip all over your counter. And I would take water dripping on already wet dishes over them covering all on my counters any day.
It is the exact same thing as the pic in the original post but hidden in a cabinet! :D But whatever question it all you want
hearing the john mulaney “do my friends hate me or do i just need to go to sleep” bit is the best thing to have happened for my mental health because every time i’m afraid my friends hate me it’s around the time i should be going the fuck to sleep
I read somewhere “if you feel like everyone hates you you need to sleep and if you feel like you hate everyone else you need to eat” and it was honestly world-shattering and I wish I’d heard it years ago!
This is why they have such a problem with plastic bags. It’s because the unique structure of their esophagus makes it so that they can’t get rid of them.

Benoit is a model, writer, LGBTQ+ Activist, and a self proclaimed metal head.
She works hard to spread awareness of asexuality and dispel myths about us using her platform and her sizable social media presence (Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter). She is often a contributor to queer media and writes often on asexuality as well as fighting hard for visibility and representation for asexuals, Queer POC, and POC in general. Her YouTube channel is particularly of note in which she deals with the ongoing problem of aphobia despite the hate and bile she gets in return.

Orientation: Aroace
I have a lot of quotes from Benoit because she is extremely eloquent and points out a lot of things I, at the very least, relate to.
“It has nothing to do with how you look—that’s something I get a lot—people are like: ‘Oh but you’re good looking, you don’t need to be asexual,’ which tells me that people think that there is an asexual look and that it isn’t a good one, and two that asexuality is a choice that people take when they can’t get dates or that they can’t get laid.“
“You barely see asexual people as it is, let alone a black asexual person…I think that representation is definitely very important because I think the LGBTQIA+ community in general is pretty whitewashed in its representation…Even in the LGBTQIA community, I find that people tend to cut out the A or think that the A stands for allies.”
“One of the benefits of being asexual is definitely that you don’t have to worry about–if you’re aromantic—you really don’t worry about relationship stuff.”

“I may not be in the first four letters, but I do not relate to the heterosexual experience in the slightest.”
“[On modeling as an aromantic asexual] I believe one comment [on one of her photographs] was ‘that girl looks like she’s about as asexual as a stray dog’. And I’m not entirely sure what that means!? Are stray dogs particularly sexual creatures? They were like ‘if she’s asexual why is she getting her picture taken? Why is she wearing those clothes?’ You obviously don’t understand what modelling is, you have to get your picture taken, you have to wear the clothes…I do think people outside of my circle find it kind of difficult to comprehend. And even for me IN it, it’s difficult to navigate sometimes! People see that I do lingerie and are like, ‘oh she’ll probably just take any job.’ But I’m VERY specific [with the jobs I take]. I’ll be like, ‘lingerie in what way?’…If you see a girl on the cover of GQ in a bra, she’s not selling the bra. The bra is irrelevant to the equation, it’s her that you’re supposed to be looking at. So I’m always like, ‘am I showing off a product, which is kind of the point, or am I supposed to just be showing off myself?’ I’m kind of picky over whether the images are aimed at titlating somebody or if they’re aimed at commercially making the clothes look as good as possible – which is my goal with it. From within the industry, it’s complicated, especially because of my body shape. If you have anything above an A cup then you’re pretty much in the lingerie category. And everything you do is seen as being more sexualised. It’s interesting navigating it from within and to people outside of it as well.”
“The only reason I noticed I was asexual was around the time everyone else realised they weren’t asexual. I remember coming back from the summer holidays thinking, what’s happened to everyone?”
“I want people to understand that asexuality is literally just what it says on the tin…Don’t approach it with all of these other ideas of how it’s supposed to be or how the story is supposed to end… it’s literally just normal people, every type of person, every country, every background, every occupation, it’s not just young confused teenagers, it’s not just people who look a certain way. It’s a diverse group of people and the same thing as you’d expect from any other community. It’s not a psychological problem, it’s not a physical problem… for a lot of people it’s not a problem! It’s literally just one element of a normal person’s life. So just treat it like that, without any of the extra baggage that people feel the need to throw on top of it.”
