While I know DNI warnings are worse than useless, given recent developments, I feel like I should clarify. If you are a terf, I despise you. If you are a radfem, I also hate you.

You, too, are likely to see posts you disagree with if you follow me, so. For both our sakes. Don’t.

I think my favorite bit i do with customers is when white women are like ‘i dont know what to getttttt’ and i hit them with the ‘you should be bad~ 😈’

Saying ‘you should be bad!!’ In like Gay Voice to a white woman at starbucks has like the same psychological impact as going like ‘who’s a good boy?’ To a dog. It makes them so excited in a really endearing way.

Because all the drama with Lois, Clark ends up developing a much stricter but more flexible practice with concealing his secret identity from the rest of the Daily Planet. This mostly boils down to “Don’t gaslight people” and “Just maintain that Superman doesn’t have a secret identity and 99% of the time you can just gently nudge people to their own conclusions with regards to you.” But he has like, one vice with regards to secret identity shenanigans and that’s fucking with Steve Lombard whenever he gets asked what his workout routine is. Steve has been asking for years and Clark has never given him the same answer.

“Just the expert-recommended 150 minutes of mild aerobic activity and/or 70 minutes of intense aerobic activity a week!”

“You know that group of seniors who do Tai Chi in the park?”

“Tractor tires. Mine actually came off of our old tractor back in Smallville! I don’t like the ones at the gym. Not enough.. um… dirt. How many squat reps? Uhhh…. 12?”

“BugFit? On the KordTech BugStation? You have these wands that you wave around but there’s also this little platform that you step on and–? Oh I don’t have the console, myself. I use Jimmy’s.”

“Pole dancing. Lois’s idea.”

And Steve is always that weird brand of macho-affable about it, like “Ahh you got me again, Kent! But I’ll figure it out one of these days! I didn’t spend 4 weeks painstakingly comparing the training regimens of the entire Metropolis Meteors team not to figure yours out!”

And in private this is fucking haunting Steve because he knows guys that wake up at 4 am 5 days a week to gun for the kind of lats Clark ‘Ope’ Kent has. He also knows it’s not steroids because he’s tracked down enough stories of that nature and knows Clark well enough to know that’s really not in the realm of what’s going on here. And here’s Clark adjusting his stupid fucking glasses and saying with a perfectly straight face that he has that body from fucking pilates.

fun fact about me: When I was 6 years old I sent so much hate mail to the president (the second Bush) that the mail carrier had to tell my mom I needed to stop before we got FBI’d

I was COMPLETELY unaware of the US political scene or why the adults in my life hated Bush, but I knew I hated him because he let people shoot wolves from helicopters and that’s mean and shitty

I also had a poor grasp on how stamps worked, so given that I wasn’t allowed to continually throw money away by putting stamps on my presidential hate mail, a lot of the times I just drew squares with little pictures inside on the corner.

Love, love, love reading more proof that everyone should encourage the children in their lives to write to elected officials–it teaches them about citizenship and can also be very funny.

When I taught second grade, one of the options for students who had finished their work was to write a letter to the president. I would send all of the letters in a big envelope at the end of every month.

Watching my students get more and more frustrated with him (and concerned about his wellbeing) was not the result I’d hoped for when I came up with the idea, but it was kind of hilarious.

See, Obama had a standard packet with information and activities about his dog he’d send in response to letters from very young citizens…and of course his office sent one back to our class every single time we sent mail.

So eventually all of the letters looked something like this:

Dear President Obama,

I am writing about the environment. I am sad that the Great Barrier Reef is hurt. Also the Amazon Rainforest. Can you help? PLEASE DON’T WRITE BACK TO TELL ME ABOUT YOUR DOG AGAIN. WE ALREADY KNOW ALL ABOUT BO. WE COMPLETED THE MAZE AND COLORED HIM IN. It is good that you love your pet a lot. But try to remember the environment. It is also important.

The trick is to not let people know how really weird you are until it’s too late for them to back out.

Absolutely the frak not, the trick is to immediately let people know how weird you are so you scare off the weak ones. The ones who stay because they like how weird you are? Those are the ones you want.

Allow me to elucidate, @a-sour-nectarine

When most people “roll their eyes”, they flick their eyes directly upward, usually as far as they comfortably go, then resume looking normally.

When someone who learned the phrase before the behavior does it, they usually go in a circular (ish) motion. Since most eye movements are lines, it’s usually pretty triangular: the key points are usually a diagonal up one way, then to the far other side, then to a diagonal low the first way. Thus, the eyes basically make a loop, so they “rolled”.

I’ve found that when people who learned the up-down way first try the circular motion, they might risk motion sickness, so experiment carefully.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN MOST PEOPLE JUST LOOK UP

mildlycuriousdragon Oh yeah I learned this through repeated observation but I was already used to the circular motion by the time I noticed so I still use that
