You're right. I SHOULD be able to take the train from Minneapolis to Berlin.

The first time I reblogged this I didn't see your fingers properly and didn't realise just how fucking tiny this dude is. The gauze story makes much more sense now, I was imagining something goanna-sized and thinking you were lucky to get out of the encounter with an entire face.

I will always re-blog this. The story of Kitty Genovese’s murder has gone down in history as a story about everyone watching it happen and doing nothing and none of the story is true.

I was in southern Ontario during great eastern North America blackout of 2003. Every movie I've ever seen would have imagined an orgy of looting and senseless violence. Instead, i remember people forming orderly lines, communicating what information was available, being helpful to one another.

Helping is such a strong instinct in humans that we have to train people to not run into enclosed spaces with a person unconcious in them or near overturned chemical trucks because there might be a gas leak or other invisible hazards and they'd probably die too. People have died jumping into water that was electrified because someone already in it was drowning and they didn't think twice. Humans are hardwired to just help, so much so we hardly ever consider that there might be something there that could hurt us too, and tbh I think that's something we can all be proud of.
