Sex is like kickball. I don’t spend a great deal of time thinking about kickball. If I broke my legs and could never play kickball again, I’d emotionally recover. It’s kind of a weird thing, anyhow, and so I don’t, y’know, seek out the sensory experience of kickball. But every once in a while, someone’s I care about a lot will be really athletic and they’re like, “Hey, do you wanna play kickball?” I’m like, “Oh, fuck, dude, kickball. I forgot all about kickball. Hell yeah!” and then it’s either really fun or sweaty and awkward depending on who you play with, but either way, it’s whatever.
So, I guess I’m technically grey-ace, but it isn’t a label I’m attached to or an aspect of my identity I devote a ton of energy to.
We got a call-out for a Brownsnake caught in a wooden fence, ended up being this cutie, a Burton’s legless lizard. Poor little think had a big meal in his belly and thus got himself jammed. Owners were happy to have him released in their garden 🙂 #Brisbane #wildlife #leglesslizard #burtonsleglesslizard #BNE #lizard #lizardsofinstagram #reptilesofinstagram (at Brisbane, Queensland, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpfvIj8nlWL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6dv27foyg1xc
Artemis: *lounging by a spring on piles of deerskin surrounded by three dozen naked girls with a dead pan expression* Virginity.
“Heracles, they’re lesbians”.
Note that the concept of “virginity” in Ancient times merely meant “unmarried”, and had nothing to do with sexual activity. Some priestesses were “virgins” because they chose (or were committed to) a life of worship, but it was merely a question of social status, not of personal choice or practice. Of course, one can suppose that this lifestyle would be rather attractive for lesbians.
So when Artemis is said to be the Goddess of Virgins, it is meant to be understood as “Goddess of Unmarried Women”, or, quite possibly literally, of lesbians.
(It’s only Christianity that reframed the concept of virginity to mean “never had sex”. Many ancient religions has “Virgin goddesses”, which symbolized feminine power, and in this case too it meant “untied to a man”, or “whole for herself”)
Does that mean virgin olive oil is simply unmarried olive oil excuse me I have to plan a wedding
Mostly I say “fat fat fat fat fat fat fat” and stare at them. Sometimes I crouch down in front of their terrarium and sing until Liberace decides to join in with his awful awful singing voice.
It depends on the pet owner and the frog species. Delicate frogs like dart frogs you exclusively watch, they aren’t for touching. Larger species of tree frogs and many species of toads can be handled (mostly consisting of them sitting on one’s hand) once they get used to you. See the Stickyfrogs tumblr for an idea of this. Also, many larger frog and toad species are fed outside the enclosure- you take them out into a bucket or a little container and put their food in it for them. This reduces the risk of overly enthusiastic frogs swallowing substrate, and is a good deal of fun to watch.
You can also put Youtube videos where they can see. They’ll watch the motions.
in the Wizard of Oz movie, the Tin Man is just a wood-chopping robot for no reason… in the books, he used to be a human dude but a witch cursed him so that he accidentally chopped off his arms and legs and head and torso and had each piece replaced by tin with no side effects other than not having a heart
the whole time he’s just trying to build a nice house for his fiancé but amputating all his limbs one by one and then decapitating himself doesn’t sway him from his goal
and he doesn’t even know he’s cursed during this time so the poor fucker just thinks his aim’s off
