Aging is *literally* the process of your body breaking down like an ancient and damaged machine. It’s the epitome of the REAL definition of “degeneration” and people act like it’s some sort of “beautiful natural process” no bitch it’s literally a disease. It’s a built-in kill switch your body has and science has proven this kill switch can be turned off with the right treatments.
Same goes for death itself. “Natural” body death can also be stopped with the right treatments - in fact, there’s a lot of overlap between anti-aging treatments that could exist in the next couple decades and the anti-death treatments that could show up in a similar amount of time.
Ok I guess. But it happens to everyone, it’s inevitable, and trying to stop it only cause self-hate. Might as well embrace it
Can people actually fucking do some research before replying with dumbass shit like this? Seriously HOW ARE YOU THIS MOTHERFRUCKING STUPID?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?
IT IS SPECIFICALL:Y NOT NATURAL
AGING IS YOUR BODY LITERALLY BREAKING DOWN AND FALLING APART YOU STUPID PIECE OF SHIT! IT CAN BE PREVENTED VIA TREATMENTS THAT YOUR BODY ALREADY DOES!!!!!
Do your fucking research before you tell me I’m wrong about something. Because I didd o my research and I’m sick of stupid people like you saying stupid fucking buillshit like this. KYS, cunt
great job telling someone to kill themselves over a harmless post! Maybe you should go touch grass!
ITS NOIT HARMLESS TO SAY THAT AGING IS NATURAL YOU STUPID MOTHERFUCKING BITCH
YOU ARE LITERALLY GOING OUT OF YOUR WAY TO SPREAD MISINFORMATION YOU STUPID WORTHLESS SACK OF SHIT
Cranky because you can’t stop the concept of linear time, aren’t you?
HOW CAN YOU BE THIS MOTHERFUCKING STUPID DO SOME MOTHERFUCKING RESEARCH YOU DUMB FUCKING CUNT INSTEAD OF SPREADING REACTIONARY BULLSHIT
I HAVE PROVIDED SOURCES NOW LOOK AT THEM OR GO FUCK YOURSELF BITCH
hey dude

Thank you all for a fantastic post-reading experience, wasn’t expecting to see someone saying “kys” in reply to being told humans are mortal
IM LOSING MY FUCKING MIND WHAT IS THIS??????????????????????????????????????????
No you cannot fix your entire life at 2am. Go to bed.
You can fix some of it though! By going to bed.
Ever since I read a post saying “don’t trust yourself after 9pm” whenever I find myself spiralling at 2am I check the time, see it’s after 9pm, and remember not to trust myself and just go to sleep. Works wonders. The problems are never as bad in the morning.
they concluded that the rats were having fun partially bc the rats voluntarily initiated games, hopped around joyfully and teased researchers by pretending to come close and then skittering away. rats are Very Good
These scientists are getting grant money to play games with rats all day and that is just, living the dream.
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.
I want to make people see how much has been taken away from them.
Did you know that there are dozens of species of fireflies, and some of them light up with a blue glow? Did you know about the moths? There are thousands of them, bright pink and raspberry orange and checkerboard and emerald. They are called things like Black-Etched Prominent, Purple Fairy, Pink-Legged Tiger, Small Mossy Glyph and Black-Bordered Lemon.
Did you know that there are moths that feed on lichens? Did you know about the blue and green bees? The rainbow-colored dogbane beetles? Your streams are supposed to teem with newts, salamanders, crawdads, frogs, and fishes. I want to take you by the hand and show you an animal you’ve never seen before, and say, “This exists! It’s real! It’s alive!”
There are secret wildflowers that no website will show you and that no list entitled “native species to attract butterflies!” will name. Every day I’m at work I see a new plant I didn’t know existed.
The purple coneflowers and prairie blazing star are a tidepool, a puddle, and there is an ocean out there. There are wildflowers that only grow in a few specific counties in a single state in the United States, there are plants that are evolved specifically to live underneath the drip line of a dolomite cliff or on the border of a glade of exposed limestone bedrock. Did you know that different species of moss grow on the sides of a boulder vs. on top of it?
There are obscure trees you might have never seen—Sourwood, Yellowwood, Overcup Oak, Ninebark, Mountain Stewartia, Striped Maple, American Hophornbeam, Rusty Blackhaw, Kentucky Coffeetree. There are edible fruits you’ve never even heard of.
And it is so scary and sad that so many people live and work in environments where most of these wondrous living things have been locally extirpated.
There are vast tracts of suburb and town and city and barren pasture where a person could plausibly never learn of the existence of the vast majority of their native plants and animals, where a person might never imagine just how many there are, because they’ve only ever been exposed to the tiny handful of living things that can survive in a suburb and they have no reason to extrapolate that there are ten thousand more that no one is talking about.
It’s like being a fish that has lived its whole life in a bucket, with no way of imagining the ocean. The insects in your field guide are a fraction of those that exist, of all the native plants to your area only a handful can be bought in a nursery.
Welcome to the Earth! It’s beautiful! It’s full of life! More things are real and beautiful and alive than a single person could imagine!!!
twitter is going to be shut down. half of reddit is locked or completely unmoderated. the entire first page of google search results are ads. tumblr does not and will never have a functioning search system and their content moderation is 100% automated. youtube only shares ad revenue with people who make snuff films for Youtube Kids. facebook is selling your grandma’s social security number under the table for like $5. web 2.0 is completely dead right
Monster fucker this, monster fucker that. What if I want a monster RELATIONSHIP huh?! Monster HAND HOLDING, monster INTIMATE CONVERSATIONS, monster COMFORTABLE SILENCE??
I’m calling this monster liker. Not even, like, monster lover.
literally @naffeclipse Cryptid Sightings and Deep Dreams
I love that two people have tagged me in this post, makes my little monster loving heart soar!
Got out of my mom’s car today during a massive thunder storm. Tripped, fell and, in rapid succession:
1. broke my sunglasses 2. ripped my bag’s strap 3. launched my phone into a puddle deep enough to submerge it 4. scratched the SHIT out my leg open where my healed but tender tattoo is 5. landed in a silty, muddy puddle and got soaked
we were about an hour from home (and it was longer due to the driving conditions) so here’s a friendly reminder to try and keep a care kit in your car for emergencies, both minor and beyond :) cause damn life comes at you fast
Okay but like the fact that this one image tells so much and is (imo) the saddest thing in the entire game
Like it’s the Malloy family tree and they have asterisks over the deceased, and little Fiona added her own parents’ stars after they died, and the stars are both messed up bc she was just a kid :(
And then she added her raven as her own child and the raven died…and so did the next one and the next one and the next one and her writing and her stars get messier and messier as time goes on until the last star is just a scribble and the newest raven’s name is just lines to show her mental state deteriorating over the years
and like…there are other people on the tree that are alive. Fiona had family and she never saw them again after the accident, and they thought she was dead all that time. And we know Kyler’s grandpa is now passed away and Fiona has no idea given that he has no star. Maybe she’s been holding on to faint memories of him and hoping to see him again one day. She never knew that he had children, and now his children are dead as well. Who knows what is going on with the other family line, but at least one in her generation had already passed by the time of the accident.
Idk I know this is all obvious stuff but this poster really just hits me because it tells such a sad story :(
I missed it the first time playing the game myself, but in a phone conversation with Ned Nancy says the cages in the bog are big enough to hold a child. That’s such a specific line of dialogue, and it made me wonder if Nancy was suspecting something was up once she found the hut and evidence of a person living there. I can’t tell if it was supposed to be spooky just for spooky-s sake, or if there’s supposed to be this implication that the hermit kept Fiona as pet. It’s explicitly stated the hermit wasn’t good for her mental health, and we can clearly see by the end of the game she’s not exactly doing well.
Better question is, what happened to the hermit? Did Fiona bury him? Roll his corpse into the bog? And why didn’t the hermit tell anyone he found the child? Bailor clearly isn’t that far if Nancy can walk back and forth to it multiple times a night. Was the hermit not a hermit at all but a sidhe himself? Or was he something far scarier than a fairy tale?
Did Fiona keep Matt locked up because she herself was locked up like a pet? He uses the phrase “like I’m her pet or something” with Nancy.
Maybe these were just throwaway lines for HeR, but it definitely made me pause. The implications are unfortunate for Fiona.
Oh my god, I’ve never gotten that dialogue option before but that is just terrifying. The parallels there between what it implies and what she’s doing to Matt are just like…yikes
Like Matt says he doesn’t think she wants to hurt him or anything, and it seems like maybe she thinks that’s just what humans do to each other. Lock them up and toss them food every so often. Also to add to this (horrifying!) thing, it’s clear that Fiona doesn’t have speech capabilities. Matt mentions she might understand him, but she never responds. Now sometimes someone can go mute from trauma, which could totally be the case here, but it is kind of written like she just forgot how to speak. It makes me wonder if the hermit ever actually spoke to her or just kept her locked up :(
And one last thing to add to your theory—the hermit isn’t on her family tree. She added the crows but not the person that supposedly took her in and “raised” her. I think that says a lot more than most of the info HeR actually gives us about their dynamic.
@nancynancydrewdrewdrew I was completely unaware of the dialogue myself until I saw Gab Smolders get the option while she was doing a stream with Jacksepticeye, since he wanted to hear the bad Irish accents. She does a lot of phone calls because she likes the dynamic with Bess and George, and decided to call Ned a few times too because Sean was curious about why Ned was lying about the party. During one phone call Nancy talks about he bog hut and the cages with Ned. The stream is up on YouTube if anyone is curious or hasn’t seen it.
Sorry, meant to respond with the knock-off krollmeister blog. Forgot to switch
I’m going to have to check it out, thanks for the rec!
