no, YOU have a microwave brain that slowly rotates blorbos. I have a washing machine brain that rotates AND soaks them and sometimes things get a little intense and it starts going THUNK THUNK THUNK and nearly breaks itself because of blorbo overload

still reading frankenstein and i completely forgot that theres a part where victors wrapping up doing devious deeds on a sparsely inhabited island off the shore of england and he loads all his mad scientist shit into a rowboat and pushes off into the water and then fucking falls asleep with no navigational tools and when he wakes up hes like, adrift with no land in sight and hes like ‘FUCK my creation!!!!!’ even though the monster had absolutely nothing to do with getting him lost in the middle of the fucking english channel and he starts lamenting about how hes going to die and his family is never going to see him again and hes going to go to davey jones locker or whatever because hes been without potable water in a rowboat for like 4 hours and then he sees land and hes like ‘oh thank god im saved!!!’ and he gets to shore and is met with an angry mob who thinks he murdered someone and hes like ‘but where is english hospitality?????’ and theyre like ‘this is ireland you dumb slut’ and as theyre marching him to the magistrate hes like ‘i was still thirsty but did not want to show my weakness……’ like could you even imagine

Frankenstein is an unflinchingly realistic portrayal of the highly specialized form of stupid that comes from being told for your entire childhood that you’re a world-changing genius who can solve every problem because you’re so smart, but now you’re in college and you have depression and you keep fucking everything up because being good at reading science books when you were 12 doesn’t actually translate into making smart life choices and you’re constantly beating yourself up about your horrible failures but you couldn’t possibly ask anyone for help, and in fact the idea doesn’t even cross your mind because obviously you will be able to handle it this time because you’re a world-changing genius who
can solve every problem, and consequently you keep right on catastrophically fucking everything up, and I don’t think it gets enough credit for that.

Interesting wood burning technique

This looks cool but this technique is extraordinarily dangerous and people have literally died trying it

For more info, check out the very informative Ann Reardon video:

For those of you without 15 minutes to watch the video:

The way it works is using a microwave transformer, which transforms the normal current from your wall (120v to 200v) into 2000v. Two thousand Volts. That’s over 10x what’s needed to stop your heart.

That’s enough electricity to melt electrical safety gloves to your hands. Experienced electricians have died trying this.

As an added layer of dead-causing danger, because of the way the transformer works, that safety switch in most houses that turns off the power if someone is being electrocuted doesn’t work. The coils in the transformer don’t actually touch.

Do not do this.

THE MICROWAVE TRANSFORMER WILL KILL YOU!

But the advice that 120 to 200 volts is minimum amount needed to stop your heart can ACTUALLY kill you too.

The current you will kill you LONG before the voltage does.

You can kill someone with far less than 120v, as long as there is enough current (50-150 milliamps.)

If you don’t know what you’re doing, don’t fool with anything over 48 volts.

(And just don’t fool with electicity when your skin is wet at all.)

I need to draw men being obnoxious to their partners and getting In The Way right now immediately.

it is it’s nature to Be In The Way.

Just… Pick them up??? Grab a blanket, wrap ‘em up, then move them out of the way.

the consequences of doing that:

just needed to make a conclusion to this

tbh this post is Just for the it/its crowd now. keep shining.

(but for real it makes me happy other it/its folks are getting a lil joy out of an it/its character like. casually existing and having a fun gender.)

im sorry to the one guy who thought “being a dragon” was a metaphor for being rich and having a hoard or whatever. its not. its because i want scales and fangs and claws and a big tail and a long sinuous body and the ability to roar and purr and maybe a breath weapon

Contrary to what many sites seem to believe using a vpn is not illegal

Any attempts to protect your online privacy becoming labelled as “suspicious” is quite frankly horseshit businesses arent owed your personal details

Its not illegal and does prevent the network you’re physically connected to from snooping on your internet traffic, but you’re also handing the details of your internet traffic to your VPN provider, so keep that in mind.
