I don’t mean to impose a personal favour on you guys, but I really would like to ask that everyone who follows me reblog this.

I don’t think I made it very clear but last month I was sexually assaulted by someone who I thought was my friend (I don’t want to talk about it don’t ask), and it’s… really fucked with my head.

Had I known this a month ago I would have been able to get away.

So, essentially, I’m really pleading with you to reblog this so everyone who follows you doesn’t get stuck in the same position I was with no way out.

I mean again I don’t want the point of this to be my sob story or whatever but if you could reblog this it would seriously mean a lot

This is one of the first moves I was taught in Krav Maga, and it is one of the most effective.

It took me about a half hour to get down with practice, but once you get it, it’s an intuitive movement.

Please pass this along, it will save lives.

Bruh the weirdest shit is seeing what people without EDs consider “low calorie” foods. Like I’ll look up recipes and it’ll be like “low cal quesadilla” and I’m like oh hell yeah and then it’s like… 400 calories… like what is this nonsense

expeditionersdiscoveryguild asked:

Do you know how to capitalize?

botanyshitposts answered:

yeah? do you know that in the complex linguistic context of casual conversation in specific circles of the internet, things like capitalization and punctuation are used differently to express different tones, inflections, and meanings, and that traditional capitalization in all contexts says a lot about the author and who they intend their audience to be?

for example:

-’i am mad’- neutral conversation, can be funny depending on the context

-’I Am Mad’- author is making a specific point or exaggeration, often in a humorous, self-aware way

-’I am mad.’ - an inflection of formality usually interpreted as more standoffish and less approachable, slightly unfriendly if used in a casual millennial setting

in the context of this blog, i’m writing accessible science content to people my own age in the same social context of the internet, and i choose my inflection accordingly- just like i would talk to another person my age. this is indicated beforehand by the title of this blog being ‘botanyshitposts’, with ‘shitposting’ being a popular internet term to refer to memes, low-effort explanations, and easily accessible, modifiable, and approachable content.

remember that these inflections have reasons to arise! if you’re a millennial (like me) texting your friends over discord, then it becomes less efficient in a quickly moving group chat to use proper capitalization (one more button to hit, and every line?) and everyone has an understanding that that’s that and nobody else in the chat cares about formality….because you’re friends. this is a similar reason why other shorthand for common sayings and phrases have become common over the past two/three decades (beginning with stuff like ‘lol’ and developing more to include a lot of acronyms). all this has led to relaxed capitalization and shorthand being a sign of friendliness.

if you go to circles of the internet with people who might not have grown up talking frequently to others online, the context is much different, and is more inclined towards proper capitalization and such. similarly, when i- and others - write outside of online circles, we’re still educated human beings who write with proper capitalization, punctuation, and spelling, because we are fully aware of the complex societal nuances in different situations and are able to change how we speak to adhere to that. in fact, we are so acclimated to multiple online and offline cultures and relevancies that we actively choose how we talk!

in conclusion: this is actually a really interesting ask, because it shows that you’re coming from another part of the internet/a completely different context where, when looking at how i and other (educated, intelligent) people in my age group speak online, you completely miss the nuances and brush it off as something to be mocked, because in the circles you’re a part of varied capitalization is interpreted as a sign of incompetence. meanwhile, for much of the evolving internet, varied capitalization conveys meaning of tone and intent through a medium where verbal tone changes aren’t applicable! it has it’s own meaning, and it’s a very interesting thing to watch and study from a scientific perspective… that’s modern linguistics and anthropology, bay bee!!
