The Slow Dance of the Infinite Stars

"none of these words are in the bible" you don't know that. we don't know for sure what every hapax legomenon strictly translates to. maybe "קִפוֹז" means "klance foot kink pwp." you don't know that.

"none of these words are in the bible" true statement actually bc the bible wasn't written in English

this is an example of a symbiotic relationship

fiction can be really dangerous there might be a deeply tragic woman in there who starts living in your head forever

The thing about Miss Piggy is that she kind of has a Roger Rabbit comedy superpower where she wins nearly any conceivable fight she's in. But unlike other characters of which that's true, like say, Bugs Bunny, who tend to win because they make the opponent play the game with their rules, Miss Piggy wins because the joke is that she can beat the shit out of literally anybody.

do y’all remember usernames??? from back when every fuckin website didn’t need your email phone number home address social security number just to join/sign up for something?? when you could make website-specific accounts that weren’t linked to literally anything else??? they tried to boil us like a frog slowly switching to “username/email” and then just asking for your email. but I remember. I remember usernames.

Also I have to claudiapost again for a moment, it felt so deeply unjustified to have her show up in this blinding, hot rage and desperation and vanish in it as well while screaming Madeleine's name, knowing that she couldn't even find her in the afterlife, and then it cuts right to a scene where Louis and Lestat are just calmly having a conversation and being able to, like... move on. She doesn't get to move on? She has to spend eternity alone in the mental state she was in when she died? She didn't even get peace after everything, she doesn't even get to be with the person she loved? That's so sick seriously, tv showrunners try not to write character arcs that ultimately result in punishing women challenge, impossible

if you think about it making your readers picture stuff in their heads is lk noncon and problematic

I’ve been reading through the notes and I just have to say that I absolutely promise, promise, promise you that nobody in the dental surgery is there to judge you, and we’re certainly not mad at you. Cavities happen. Even to dentists. You think your dentist has a mouth full of virgin teeth? Unlikely! They’ve all visited eachother’s surgeries to get a quickie filling (ooh, saucy) between patients. They understand that life can get in the way of oral hygiene sometimes. They understand that life’s too short not to eat chocolate. They understand that you’ve got to live. I swear to you that everyone in that room is just there to help you. Please, please, please don’t stop going to the dentist because you’re worried they’ll be mad at you. It’s really not the case. They understand. It’s fine. It’s really, really fine. Please go to the dentist. I promise you it’s ok.

You would not believe how comforting this is.

I tell this to the kids I treat so often when they’re old enough to ask what getting a cavity means for them. I tell them, “If you get a cavity, the only thing that happens is that we fix it. I’m not gonna be upset, I’m not gonna think you did anything wrong, I’m just gonna help you fix it.”
