Who Even Knows Why I'm Here

Just…obssesed with myths as a concept. Like we humans came up with stories that we loved so much that we kept telling them to each other for through ages. They are like a gift from our long gone ancenstors. And they come from a time so far away, but we keep them alive because somehow, the love and hate, the hope and fear, the triumph and despair in them is still our own.

till deactivation do us part

im so sad this is from a deactivated blog i feel like i just found a heartfelt message in an old locket at a garage sale

I love how the internet has introduced us to so much cursed and burdensome knowledge that we’ve had to innovate entirely new ways to express disgust. I saw a post tagged with “this made me lose the ability to thermoregulate” the other day

My dad fell asleep watching some youtube video in the living room but his youtube is set to auto play and i just heard ‘Big foot mating call’ before the loudest guttural noise imaginable reverberated this whole house. And hes still asleep

Step mom came out from her room and was like ‘Hey Jim? Why?’

if this somehow makes it to a facebook meme page and my dad sees it i will literally never forgive any of you

do people understand that aesthetically tiktokking their skincare routine is, and I'm not exaggerating, American Psycho behavior

literally whenever I see one of those "get ready with me" tiktoks with the millions of oils and moisturizers and masks and serums I just think of that entire sequence like alright Mr. Bateman put the iPhone down and run along to class now

vivaldi's four seasons are just insane like you listen to them and you know the old man was out there in the venice canals serving absolute cunt

This post is even funnier if you know that Antonio Vivaldi was an ordained Catholic priest, but had a dispensation from conducting Mass because he had (what we now call) asthma. Sorry Pope, our boy Tony V has to save his strength for sexy violin shredding.

Every day, I think about getting my height checked at my endocrinologist and the nurse going, "Why's every trans guy we get in here 5'4"?" Uncalled for.

Also being at the dentist and saying, "Hey, my paperwork says _____, but I'm Newt," and her, without skipping a beat, saying, "Oh, did your mom pick that one out, too?" Obliterated.

Something needs to be done about teachers who hate kids tbh

My sister is currently getting her doctorate in child psychology & education, but years ago she worked as a substitute english teacher at a high school in nyc. She spent half a year subbing for a woman who was out for surgery, and had been teaching english there for years and years. Most of the kids in this class were remedial; they had failed english before and had to retake it. Most of them hated the class, and they hated literature, because they had been made to feel unintelligent. My sister decided to introduce them to poetry, which was a little easier to digest than long form prose, and had them read Robert Frost's "Fire and Ice." And the kids loved it! They connected with it, they were spirited and engaged in class for the first time all year. They wrote their own poetry! They started seeking out and reading poetry on their own! They were all on track to get a C, B or A in that class. And then the original teacher returned and failed every single student, to "teach them all a lesson". That was the moment my sister decided to go into administration so she could hopefully prevent that sort of thing from happening. But it's difficult. Despite numerous complaints from parents and other teachers, that teacher had a job there for decades. She continued to have a job there. There are a lot of teachers like her, wielding power and taking their frustrations out on kids, especially disabled and remedial kids. And students have so few advocates in the classroom.

This post has turned into teachers complaining that this behavior is understandable because of burnout, low wages, etc and like. Ok then quit lmao. If you treat my kid like this because of "burnout" I'm gonna burn out your fucking teeth

Every once in a while I remember that Steven Universe had a main character who was literally the embodiment of forbidden lesbian love and I re-realize how awesome that was.

I’m wheezing. Thank you, Mohammad, this thread is amazing. Now go put more lights on things!
