Welcome, have a rest at the bonfire

listen to my frankenstein from dead end paranormal park on repeat and then maybe you'll calm down

the whole “i used to be a teen who hated authority only to grow up to become the authority that hates teens” is a bad bad thing that practically every other generation has fallen into and we all need to make an extremely conscious effort not to repeat the fucking pattern

Studies have shown that the shift starts to happen around age 30. If you’re close to that, make a conscious effort to be open to and accepting of younger people. I’m 31 and paying close attention to how I react to young people and new trends and shit and trying to keep myself from developing those thought patterns.

noted

It is imperative you befriend people other than those of your own generation. It’s harder to lump people together if you know some of them. This is why you should also pursue friendships beyond your race, ability, religion (or lack thereof), and class. Humanity relies on relating to each other.

Came back wrong? Nah, man. Came back BUILT.

I bring a sort of roguish charm to the council that the wizards find "highly unbecoming of a scholar" but I know they just want to make out with me so bad it makes them look stupid.

idiot they just said they're a rogue

Clearly not. Wizards don’t want to fuck rogues, rogues are always stabbing the wizards in the back

Also they said 'rogueish' which means like a rogue but not quite

Oh, I'm very much a rogue, and I frequently hit wizards from behind.

actually i am obsessed with the theme of farming in this arc of vinland saga. the concept of individuals who knew nothing but fields of death being reborn in fields that are literally made of and cultivate life...................the imagery of hands scarred and callused from years of wielding weapons now experiencing new blisters and wounds from working the land.............how men who once fought for hours on end are relearning exhaustion and persistence but in a wildly different context...................what it means to apply your strength and your will for the sake of creating rather than destroying. what it means to treasure life, to preserve and protect it. "carve it." not stab, not strike. "carve it." dig deep into the dirt and move the very earth with your own hands. "carve what you feel into me." "carve that encounter into me." be reborn!! become alive!! it's so beautiful!!

i mean this completely seriously but… a cup of coffee can save your life a little, a shower can save your life a little, making your favorite meal can save your life a little…….little things actually add up to really big things in the long run if you let them, the secret to surviving everyday is infusing a little bit of magic into the mundane i truly believe that
