This is the best analogy I’ve seen. [Source unknown]

And the rumors about this bridge being likely to collapse were started by a since-exposed con man trying to get people to buy into a ferry service.

And most of the time, you’re not actually the one swimming across the river (because you took the bridge years ago), you’re making your kids swim.

And you’re periodically throwing rocks at people who are ON the bridge, trying to knock them into the river with you.

Or making your kids throw grappling hooks at all the kids on the bridge to try and drag them in.

I saw a post saying that trans people should remember that “ You may be the first trans person someone has met! Be a good ambassador!!!”

I am not an ambassador. I did not agree to, nor do I want, that position. I am not anyone’s token trans. I am not the spokesperson for all trans people everywhere. I am an individual, and I am just trying to live my life.

Don’t put that shit on people.

Old dentists’ office walls are full of thousands of “buried teeth”

For at least the third time, construction workers in Georgia have opened
up the walls of a former dentist’s office only to discover thousands of
teeth in the wall cavity.

The latest discovery was made at Valdosta, Georgia’s TB Converse
Building, built in 1900, in a dental office occupied by Dr Clarence
Whittington and then Dr Lester G Youmans, from 1900 until the 1930s.

Previous troves of entombed teeth have been discovered in old dentists’ offices n Greensboro and Carrolton.

apparently the cool thing to do post-war was utilize the empty space between studs as a fucking sharps container because that could never cause a problem in the future

thanks boomers

Our house is about 120yrs old at this point. The inside of our bathroom cabinets all have slots in them labeled “razor blades” because, hey, they’re just gonna fall down onto the ground under the house! What harm could that cause? 

I mean, in their defense, they didn’t know that things like electrical systems and air vents were going to be invented and would necessitate people going into crawl spaces.

(nobody’s been hurt yet, fortunately. Either the people who go under our house sometimes for various reasons either don’t find the blades or they’ve rotted down to nothing. I’m not inclined to go into a spider-filled crawl space to check.)

Also, there’s a dump in one corner of the yard where people threw broken dishes and stuff. Before it got overgrown by a fig bush and infested with mosquitos, my brother and I used to like going out and digging for stuff. We found neat shards of porcelain sometimes. 

One time we found a silver brooch in our yard while metal detecting, and some old coins. 

This year, a guy with a little kid asked if he could metal detect in our yard, and he found a 70+ year old coin we’d missed. Kid was thrilled.

Old neighborhoods make for GREAT metal detecting, especially if you like old coins.

And, I mean, what else do you do with that many teeth?

Tl:dr Rodimus absolutly is an outlier and outlier powers are ridiculous.

Alright, but Rodimus going swimming in lava and then Regretting It because, hey, lava is rock, and now there’s rock hardening in all sorts of weird places. Being thoroughly chewed out by the medics while they wait for him to cool down enough to clean it all out.
