if you can. GO SEE HADESTOWN IN THEATERS. it's so beautiful and so amazing in theaters. please js go give it a shot. it's amazing

if youre in the US (especially the northeast + michigan) i would avoid bagged salads/greens and generally wash your produce very thoroughly unless you want the diarrhea parasite

also note this is a PARASITIC infection. most diarrhea-causing pathogens you expect to contaminate your greens are bacteria (e.g. e. coli and salmonella), which are a different domain of organism altogether. cyclospora is a protozoan, which is bigger and more complicated than a bacteria (for reference, malaria is also caused by a protozoan). bacterial diarrhea can be dangerous, but you might also expect to weather it and survive unscathed. do NOT fuck with PARASITIC contamination. you should be scared of this one!

Extra note: this parasite can only be found in human feces, this food was contaminated due to a lack of bathrooms and washing stations on harvesting sites due to loosening enforcement of food safety regulations. This was more than preventable, we used to prevent it.

reproductive rights is not a euphemism for abortion rights or the right of people to become pregnant, it also includes the rights of trans women to not be forcibly sterilized to get gender marker changes or the ability to freeze sperm. but those two things rarely make it on the radar even when trans women's reproductive rights are under attack.

[Image ID: Tumblr reblog from piratesRights on Feb 23, 2025 reading: true, and also about the rights of disabled people to not be forcibly sterilized against their will, and for people of color to be able to be treated fairly when seeking reproductive health information and treatment /End ID]

the weird thing about being a leftist is the government calling you a radical extremist and your family believing that youre a radical extremist and the whole times your main political beliefs are shit like "we live in a world where we could very easily end world hunger, homelessness, most disease, poverty, ect. and the people in power are choosing not to, and thats evil and should change" and that bigotry is bad

you should get a second evening for reading fan fiction. And you should get an extra day in the week to do arts and crafts.

rip critical reading born 12,000 years ago in mesopotamia died on twitter in 2013. :( rest easy king.

So no one is going to tell me that they made looking for alaska into a miniseries in 2019????????? I'm so watching this after Merlin. I haven't read John Green in years and this is going to be cringy and amazing

If you want to hide a terrible secret from the world, hire Hulu's marketing team, because they didn't tell a soul about looking for alaska.

I don't like to admit it, but sometimes I actually miss John Green.

Sometimes I can almost hear him.
