That must feel so good

And who says “sue-dew”???

It’s definitely asterisk

Ah thanks for the response!

Can you explain what you mean by a more dramatic phenotype?

Yeah genuinely someone answer this, what DO the female penguins do for warmth?

Hello I think this is funny because I think I understand more or less what this is implying (atoms and electrons? And because it’s missing one electron etc.)? I think?

But would love if someone explained it for those that are way less smart than me who wouldn’t get the joke, unlike me.

That’s what they said /j

Genuine questions for the purpose of discussion: should photos of spiders also be marked as NSFW for arachnophobia? What other phobias should and shouldn’t be considered in this?

I do not have any genuine phobias, so I concede that I’m speaking out of my limited knowledge coming only from years of solo and group therapy for other issues, but NSFW tags are intended to block images that you wouldn’t want your boss (or mom, or general public) to see you looking at due to them being sexual or otherwise inappropriate. There are a lot of things that are going to trigger phobias and other very difficult feelings for a lot of people, but I don’t think it’s feasible to ask that everyone accommodate all possibilities when posting images or sharing stories. I think it’s a positive thing to tag content warnings in bodies of text, for example, and at the same time I think that a person that can have an extreme reaction to what is otherwise an innocuous image due to a personal issue needs to take responsibility for it.

I hope this doesn’t come across as minimizing the very real struggles that people with phobias have to deal with on a daily basis, and as a whole I support making public spaces more accessible.

ETA: my understanding of a phobia is having an irrational fear so severe that it causes very real and disruptive anxiety and panic upon being exposed to the phobia. If seeing an image like this causes you discomfort or unease, but doesn’t really affect you severely or impact your life negatively, is that really a phobia?

Oh when that happens my heart sinks and I pretend it didn’t happen so I have an amorphously-shaped yolk that’s considerably less runny than the other one (my go-to is two sunny side eggs)

What are you doing to your sunny side up eggs that accidentally results in scrambled eggs?

Is this another situation like the blobfish, where the photos of it are just what it looks like when the body has been destroyed from the change in pressure but it actually looks underwhelming at the depths it normally lives in?

Didn’t know what a Yimby was, this link explained it very well for me!

Wow, I totally read your previous comment as starting with the word “ironically” and not ironlily (multiple times). Thank you

Yes thank you! I did realize after seeing the hair that the headwear was more Christian/nun-like. Still, it’s rare to see art of women dressed modestly/not sexualized; I’ll check more of this out, who is the artist?

Wait is this a reference to something? Don’t often see art portraying hijabis.

Edit:

Just kidding I realized her hair shows in the first two pieces. I just got excited for a second. Still, love the design and wondering if there’s a reference I’m missing.

Aww this is super cute and you did a fantastic job at rendering that texture, super tricky stuff!
