Marjorie & C. H. B.Quennell, Everyday Things in Archaic Greece (London: B. T. Batsford, 1931).

Wait, wait…. Is that seriously it? How their clothes go?

that genuinely is it

yeah hey whats up bout to put some fucking giant sheets on my body

lets bring back sheetwares

trust the ancients to make a fashion statement out of straight cloth and nothing but pins

Wrap Yourself In Blankets, Call It a Day

That last one looks dope

Squares and rectangles: easy to weave!! No cutting means no hemming.

And easy to construct, you don’t have to have complicated seaming and patterning to turn fabric into clothing!

Has anyone already reblogged this with saris? It’s cool how many cultures have similarities like this hidden in plain sight.

NO! Where’s the non-metals and metaloids?!

are they hydrogen or helium

oxygen, carbon, sulfur, xenon, iodine, neon, etc etc.

ooo okay i see the confusion. you're listing off a bunch of metals there

…. You’re breaking my chemistry nerd brain. Hhhuuuhhhh???

im an astrophysicist

but but, science is science?!

and different fields of science have different conventions and definitions for their unique contexts

The villain is always going on about how "Life is pain" and everyone assumes its because he's evil and trying to kill everything... until someone gets bodyswapped with him and they just go down screaming from the chronic pain he lives with, while the villain in a new body is confused "You guys DON'T hurt all the time?!"

We just not going to talk about how he can also do pottery? With chocolate?

And stickers!

he HAS A not chocolate version of that god damned bowl right there! TAUNTING US, and holding the not pastries kiwis!

It seems to me that Tumblr users have less "cuteness aggression" and more "the son who loved Sendak's drawing so much he ate it" energy.

I cannot emphasize enough how exactly accurate this is to working in production

you have to forgive the printer because it's one of the most machine-ass machines we interact with on a day to day basis. that thing says kerchunk. hardly anything says kerchunk these days. you can't get mad at her when she kerchunks up a little.

Crazy that tech has gotten so bad that we're doing printer forgiveness now

the oldest reblogs for this post that i can find are from january 2nd of 2013. this can has been getting kicked around tumblr for almost 13½ years now

And yet somehow this is my first time kicking it!

if you are a parent, or may become one, or you are otherwise likely to arrive in the situation of caring for a child while they eat, promise me this: if a child doesn't like a certain food or food group, you will ask them WHY. and specifically, you will pay attention to either confirming or ruling out "it makes my mouth itch" or "it makes my stomach hurt," both of which are medically important info that children may not provide unprompted. which i know because this PSA has been brought to you by "i spent my entire childhood and much of my early teens eating peas and lentils while wondering why everyone else liked the Violently Itchy Mouth Sensation so much, like were they a bunch of legume masochists or something, before i finally realized that Violently Itchy Mouth Sensation was in fact a sinister demon appearing only to me, and her true demonic name was: Legume Allergy"

You’re telling me there has been a Gay Island this ENTIRE TIME and I’m only just finding out about it????

WHAT

Not one of you mentioned that the anthem for this nation is I Am What I Am by Gloria Gaynor. Not. One. Of. You.

This is the greatest thing I’ve ever read
