  • You’re legitimately fine touring Chernobyl, if you clear it with the Ukrainian government. Radiation levels aren’t ideal, but they’re well within the tolerance of a day trip. Just avoid actively searching for radiation sources and you’ll be fine 999/1000 trips. Particularly on the Ferris wheel, tetanus and structural integrity are a greater concern. Which is to say, yeah, sure




  • Most people want to, for lack of a better word, fuck other people. In offering details, they create a greater chance of maintaining the ability to do so. This is particularly relevant for trans folks, who have a smaller pool of partners to pull from. For comparison, see the practices of gay folks, particularly in the 50s when gay clubs were basically outlawed. It was incredibly difficult to find other gay people in a society that ostracized them and prevented their congregation, so gay relationships were rare. It’s perfectly natural to want to find companionship, or solitude if that’s your thing, so people spread the word about themselves to broaden their chances.

    Phrased another way, there’s a reason it’s the third tier of maslow’s hierarchy of needs. Finding your place of belonging isn’t an identical process. Sometimes it’s taxing for not only yourself, but others as well. Personally, I wish I had the level of confidence of my trans friends are forced to maintain.










  • “Alright, Israel has been a thorn in our side for too long! Launch the missiles!”

    “Yes sir! Where shall we strike?”

    “The outskirts of their cities in unpopulated, barren land. They need to know to fear us.”

    “But sir, what if this merely causes them to accept that we are only a potential threat through our missiles and, given the absence of damage from our previous attack, they feel emboldened and destroy our manufacturing sites, silos, and launch pads.”

    “Impossible. Strike their wastelands.”

    Who could have seen this coming?

    Edit: am I really the only one that saw this coming? Didn’t realize Hellen Keller had so many accounts.
