Honestly, as someone who’s lacked dental care for 15 years, while it surprises me “street dentist” is a term, what surprises me the most is that I’ve never considered trying to find one. Lol. I’ve pulled my own teeth, why did I never consider finding a shady dude to do it for me?

It’s a (probably butchered) quote from the movie Luca, about a sea monster

Educate the laymen, what’s the bottom right image?

As much dead whale as you can eat! Can’t really help it. The mouth opened, the whale carcass go in

I love how street dentist is a blue link.

Guerilla Gorilla, guerilla Gorilla not for sale

It’s not an image of bad things or bad people, it’s an image of thinks that fucking suck. Being secretly gay, as in, unable to come out. Not being allowed to dress how you want it get an education. Having a debilitating illness. Having such a shitty home life because of bullshit gender roles that you require drugs just to get through the day. No repercussions for sexual assault and a continuing cycle of sexual abuse. All shitty things.

You’re the one being a piece of shit, friend. You’re attacking people who are disagreeing with you, and refusing to even consider that they may have a different perspective. When the entire world is telling you one thing, you may not believe it, but you should at least consider that your perspective and theirs may be different, and consider whether they’re right.

Also, inb4 accusations. I am a gay man, and the only issue I see with this image is it’s stunning lack of people of color worried they’ll be lynched.

Eta, checked acct history. Not worth discussing anything with. Actively hostile in nearly every comment. Just ignore and block the asshole pretending to care about progressive issues. Bad faith actor likely out to cause disagreement and leave a bad taste in people’s mouths.

I have a print of this on wood. My mom got it from her mom. We’ve had it my whole life. I’ve moved 22 times. I’ve lost almost everything I’ve ever owned at least twice. Very few possessions make it through that many moves. But we’ve kept this picture the whole time. It always hangs in the kitchen, except for this time around when it hands above my bed in the living room.

The only other things we own that we’ve had even close to as long are a painting of Snoopy I pulled out of someone’s curbside trash, a red table we got off the side of the road, and some antique pottery and glassware of grandparents that hasn’t been unboxed since the 90s.

Edit to add, view from my bed:

Ignore the dust/cobwebs. I do not dust like I should.

I’m gay, in a county where most of the play is deeply closeted guys who can’t host and want a blowjob in the woods. You kneel on a pinecone a few times, you find yourself investing in kneepads. Lol

I keep a pair of these in my car for dates

Pre code movies are amazing. My mom watches a ton of them on YouTube, and I’ll watch a lot of the time, too. They’re genuinely hilarious to watch a lot of the time, because they showcase just how much hasn’t changed. You feel like, because of media, we practically invented a lot of stuff in the last generation or two, only to watch Mae west talk about mirrors on her ceiling or Marlene Dietrich dress in dress.

Your spirit was willing but your flesh was spongy and bruised, I take it

Oh! As in, should you be an outside observer, and grabbing the whole planet, you’d be able to feel houses on its surface if it were the size of a golf ball?

Presumably you’d feel like crushing under your fingers like the hairs on a kiwi lol

I’m sure there’s some actual science thing they’re referencing here, but I don’t understand it. Who can’t feel houses?

Death by snu snu?

you do not matter

You have no idea how much I needed to hear that right now

Fellow American, given the cost of living, I feel like I’d need refugee status to get out of the methbelt red states

Yeah, back in my more politically hopeful/naive days, I dreamt of it, too. :(

My only British friend is apolitical (and a bit of a dumbass, if I’m being honest). What’s brexit like for your average Brit? I can’t imagine having the right to just move (almost) anywhere in Europe and getting that ripped away from me, but I’ll admit, I don’t really know any of the other repercussions of leaving the EU.

Me, neither! I might be the only one who would have freaking loved a Wesley led series, though. Lol
