The saying applies with more than usual force here: if you’re not paying for it, you’re not the customer: you’re the product being sold. (And maybe you’re the product being sold even if you are paying for it.)
DO NOT MAKE YOUR PERSONAL PHYSICAL DATA AVAILABLE TO PEOPLE WHO COULD THEN SELL IT TOTHOSE INVESTED IN USING IT TO SURVEIL YOU AND POTENTIALLY CHARGE YOU WITH CRIMES.
@plaguedocboi as our resident Marine Life Expert, is this true or false?
This is the Irukandji jellyfish, which has venom 100 times more potent than a cobra and sends 50-100 people to the hospital annually. It’s venom can cause fatal brain hemorrhages.
This is a viperfish. It only grows a foot long and can’t do shit to you.
Sharmila Tagore (Apur Sansar, Kashmir ki Kali, An Evening in Paris)—She was adorable, an actual princess (through marriage), the first woman to wear a bikini in a Hindi film, and had, I would argue, the most iconic beehive hair in film history.
Pola Negri (The Wildcat, Men, A Woman Commands)—Legally obliged to submit her as she’s from Poland, but also it is one of the greatest stars of silent film, both in Hollywood and Europe, so she has to be here. The og femme fatale and a fenomenal dramatic actress. And just so hot in this 1920s vamp style. Obviously her career slowed down in America with the introduction of sound movies, because of her accent and low voice. I’d say her voice is so much hotter thanks to that, but I’m just a simple simp. But then she made movies in Germany, and after the war she was even offered Gloria Swanson’s role in “Sunset Boulevard” but she declined. She was probably bisexual as after romances with Charlie Chaplin and Rudolf Valentino in the 20s, since the 1940s she lived with her ‘female friend’.

I think it’s incredibly fucked how capitalism discourages learning for learning’s sake. People will have interests they’ve spent years researching then say it’s “useless knowledge” bc it didn’t go towards a college degree and isn’t part of their job. Learning is never useless! Your brain is growing and developing throughout your whole life! People would never have epiphanies or sudden lightening strikes of creativity if they weren’t learning new things! That goes double for topics like science, politics, and history, which inform your understanding of the world you live in!

my single desire which has remained consistent through my entire life is “a bed as big as my entire room” and sadly it’s just not possible

“Day five of trying to put on the fitted sheets. I am still making my way to the northern corner, but I fear the south corner came loose. Supplies are running low, I hope they can somehow find my body by some miracle if I don’t make it through this godforsaken ocean of linen.”
