No but seriously as I’ve gotten older I realize more and more that although white gays do face certain levels of oppression they are still white people…..like does that make sense?
Like yes a white lesbian has some form oppression against her but she’s still a white woman….. and the same thing for white gay men and white trans men and women like they’re still white !!!!!!
Like I don’t mean this in a rude way but like if we’re going to be honest about the lgbtq community we should also talk about how the white people in said community oppress poc and it doesn’t change just because they’re in a minority group they’re still white people
And like personally I’ve seen that white lgbtq ppl hate when you bring up that their still white because they’ve separated themselves in their mind as being better but they’re still white!!!
Hello white people should definitely be looking at this and reblogging it lmaooo
Typical commercial white paint gets warmer rather than cooler when subjected to sunlight or other light sources. Paints on the market that are designed to reject heat reflect only 80% to 90% of sunlight and can’t make surfaces cooler than their surroundings.
In comparison, the world’s whitest paint reflects 98.1% of solar heat away from its surface.
Because the paint absorbs less heat from the sun than it emits, a surface coated with this paint is cooled below the surrounding temperature without consuming power.
Using this formulation to cover a roof area of about 1,000 square feet could result in a cooling power of 10 kilowatts, more powerful than the air conditioners used by most houses. At SXSW, researchers demonstrated the effects of the difference with two model barns sitting under direct halogen lights: one painted in commercial paint and one in Purdue’s white paint. Judges were able to compare thermometers reading the barns’ internal temperatures and to feel the difference in the roofs. The barn painted in Purdue’s technology consistently held cooler internal temperatures by 8-10 degrees Fahrenheit. The “whitest white” barn roof was also much cooler to the touch, prompting many surprised responses from judges and viewers.
While Ruan’s original paint formula is massively efficient, it required a layer 0.4 millimeters thick to achieve subambient radiant cooling. The newer, thinner formulation can achieve similar cooling with a layer just 0.15 millimeters thick.
The new paint also incorporates voids of air, which make it highly porous. This lower density, together with the thinness, provides another huge benefit: reduced weight. The newer paint weighs 80% less than the original paint yet achieves nearly identical solar reflectance – 97.9%, compared to the original formula’s 98.1%.
This could be an important piece in fighting global warming. Imagine if the city of New York City repainted all the skyscraper roofs with a paint that cools down buildings.
Children’s playgrounds. Safety railings. Tool handles. Car doors. Everything you’ve hesitated to touch in high summer because it had been outside in the sun and you knew it was going to hurt your hand.
I have no idea if they can use it on cars and window-screens to keep them from turning into little ovens in the parking lot, but I’d like them to find out.
For years I’ve heard that those booby mousepads are actually really good for a person with carpal tunnel syndrome but didn’t decide to test that knowledge because I don’t want to buy a booby mousepad that would make me some sort of sex pervert, I was raised Catholic I’m a good boy not a sex pervert. But earlier this year I bought a Gigan body pillow as a joke only to find out body pillows are actually really comfortable sleep aids, so… so I bought one… I bought a booby mousepad.
…and my wrist feels so much better when I’m using it.
How many other comforts and aids have I forsaken because they’re embarrassingly horny? How many discomforts have I endured purely out of a societal shame about expressing anything sexual? This world is fucked man.
For those curious why exactly this is, it’s because booby mousepads are pretty much the only ergonomic mousepads which still use silicone gel. Basically everything else has switched to either air-filled memory foam or a cured silicone rubber – like the kind used in silicone bakeware – because it’s not prone to springing leaks and oozing everywhere; unfortunately, it also doesn’t work nearly as well.
(In theory, if you’re not a fan of boobs you could get a silicone gel wrist pad without the booby design. In practice, good fucking luck; consumer fraud is rampant in non-prescription medical and assistive devices, and the overwhelming majority of non-booby mousepads which claim to use silicone gel are straight up lying – what you actually receive if you order one will be air-filled memory foam or solid rubber at least 80% of time, regardless of what the product description says.)
So when I first started actively doing tumblr shit I ran across a bunch of orc beefcake booby mousepads. And now here are yall talking about booby mousepads and not wanting books so I thought I’d dig them back up and share. So here’s the dude making orc beefcake mousepads. The art is good.
Until I switched to just using an ergonomic mouse, I loved getting silly lewd boob/butt mousepads for myself. Now granted, I work from home, so that’s a big advantage for me, but yeah, they’re unironically comfy!
Right now on Twitter— oops, sorry. Right now on X— there are Greek-statue-avatar “modern women are degenerates; retvrn” accounts which are partnering with OnlyFans to signal-boost OF models and promote their streams. The models pay the accounts to RT them with “dunks” like “look how fatherless and decadent this is”, and the models see increased signups as a result.
And like… I’m in awe. This is it, this is the entire 21st century neatly encapsulated.
Penetration is a gender-neutral act. Topping is gender-neutral. Bottoming is gender-neutral. You are not more or less of a man or a woman depending on how you fuck. You are not “fake trans” for having sex a certain way. You are not any less masculine for bottoming or any less feminine for topping.
Additionally, acting like being penetrated is an act of submission is deeply rooted in misogynistic, cisheteronormative ideas of sexual intercourse, as in “penetration is something that is done to women for the sexual gratification of the man, nothing more, therefore it is inherently degrading and feminine”.
A cishet man getting pegged by his cishet girlfriend is not gay, he’s not less of a man or submissive by default. A cishet man getting pegged by his cishet girlfriend can be sexually dominant and simply likes to be fucked in his ass - these two can co-exist. Yet, in the eyes of cishet society, a man that likes to have his ass played with, must enjoy it because it’s “degrading” , not because it simply feels good.
That’s why I so heavily preach about the difference between sub/dom/switch and bottom/top/vers. Penetration can be used to increase the feeling and severity of a power dynamic, but it doesn’t create one. These two things are entirely separate from eachother, unless connected willingly.
why is it always the fancylad boy-king type whos the bottom. maybe his tough loyal knight who uses his body to protect and defend him and lives to serve him wants to get railed
maybe i just like it when masc dudes with scars and calluses and a devotion complex bigger than the moon get topped by troubled prettyboys with hands thatve never worked a day in their life. who said that
I love people who curate blogs or youtube channels, or generally content for obscure or hyperspecific content. People with apartment hunting blogs. Youtube channels that do reviews of sleeper trains & buses. The guy who opens MRE packages from WW2. Defunctland talking about the history of famous amusement parks. People who lovingly create and curate wiki pages with sources for barely mentioned background characters, objects, and lore from media. Blogs that only post pics of frogs from video games. Hope you’re having fun, legends
i know a lot of people dont like bugs but they are animals. theyre just as essential as the rabbits and foxes and deer and bears. they all play an important role keeping the ecosystem in order. they pollinate and hunt and get hunted. theyre a part of a balance. their purpose on earth isnt just to be an inconvenience to you personally. bugs dont care about you. i asked them about it and they said they never even heard of you
