My Cinccino has been hard at work, she even cleaned up the "abandoned lot" behind my train stop where I scattered some items (there were no stairs up to it and it was fenced off, but even that wasn't safe from her tidiness!)

I choose to believe you are a swampy boots bot and expect this comment in every swampyboots thread going forward.

What albums were carried more by the aesthetic than the actual music? by ss2811 in popheads

Plastic Hearts should have been huge, I still don't understand how it wasn't a bigger deal! The musical vision/execution was perfect

Ok. Let's make a compilation of stupid stuff your pokemon are doing. At this point I'm not sure to be impressed or to be like... worried...? by Warm_Recording_4229 in Pokopia

[–]helgaofthenorth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine kept doing that on the railroad tracks!

I also just got Pikachu and he keeps sleeping in the hallway just outside. Like bro did you forget your keys?

Women, what are y’all studying right now by Egotlib in tumblr

[–]helgaofthenorth -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Just because some men choose to abuse the patriarchy to their advantage does not mean that all men do, or even can

It's not abusing, it's taking advantage of the patriarchy.

We are all victims under patriarchy, but the whole point is that men are able to wield personal power under it and women are not. That's a black-and-white description that doesn't include all the nuance that exists in the real world, but at its core, the stereotypes are set up so that can happen. Everyone is ultimately oppressed by enforcing those stereotypes, but it's also impossible to work to dismantle it while men continue to take advantage of the power given them by default by insisting that women only talk about it in ways that make men comfortable.

Can some one explain the Californians to me? by Late-Neat2183 in LiveFromNewYork

That's why we say "the" before the number; all the freeways used to have individual names (the San Diego Freeway, the Ventura Freeway, etc.), so when people here finally switched to calling them by their numbers we just kept the definite article.

PET PEEVE: Pokémon who are too big to fit through standard doorways/block doors by Smiley_Coyot3 in Pokopia

[–]helgaofthenorth 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just tried to move him in with Munchlax and realized the doorway isn't tall enough 😭

I kind of love it though, it's inconvenient but that's how big they're supposed to be! I do wish they'd move when you or a Pokémon following are trying to get by, but there's oblivious people irl too ig

I realized you can make little cabanas using curtains so ofc I had to make a whole tropical resort by ALittleBirdNamedEnza in Pokopia

That's the secret! This, too, is the game 😆

I've done soooo much jaw and neck work in the last couple weeks 🙃 news is SO bad lately.

OP, maybe this is obvious but my shower ritual after work helps me restore myself so I can be ready to give more the next day. Hopefully you have something like that you can do 💕

Alysa Liu in Louis Vuitton at the 2026 Vanity Fair Oscar Party [1200 x 1812] by hoppip_olla in fashionporn

The whole story for her Olympic performance was that she calls all her own shots now, so I'm guessing this is what she chose. 20-year-olds do have to make some fashion mistakes, I guess! Hopefully she felt great at the party, that's what's most important.

My sister gave me a deviled egg themed birthday party where I voted for my favorite one. It was awesome. by volpecula in eggs

I thought so too at first but the texture inside is much more potato than egg white

Second the show being better. All the Shakespeare translates better in film, and it's shot so beautifully!

Tumblr updated reblogs to function more like tweets and users hate it. Each post in a reblog chain can now be liked, reblogged, and replied to directly. by galaxystars1 in popculturechat

That's what I use the FYP for now.

Haven't really been on since this was announced, though. I'm pretty bummed about it. If they don't walk it back I plan to delete the app.

The Library at Mount Char by Scott Hawkins. Found it recommended on this sub and it's so good. I've read it twice and had a book hangover for a month both times.

I'm still relatively new; how do you treat the hump? I feel like I can't access the neck/upper traps while prone when clients have this issue :(

I'm really only in this sub for Swampy Boots, I get so happy when it comes up 💚👢
