I get missing the Honeymoon Phase of the relationship once you're out of it but like what is a relationship if not Hanging Out. There is no higher form of love, of human connection, than Hanging Out. Why would you ever give up on that. All of mankind's endeavors, the very instinct wired into us as biological creatures, all of it points towards the holiness inherent to Just Chilling With Someone
And speaking of scurvy, I am eternally amused by the thing where some ancient form of healing that was born in a time where people didn't know exactly how the human body works, or what causes it to stop working sometimes, that still somehow worked. Like how so many old folk medicinal plants were listed as a cure for various ailments that - from a modern view - are clearly just symptoms of scurvy, and the plant itself is rich in vitamin C.
I recall reading some story, no recollection of the exact time or place, where the king of a large empire suffered from constant horrible headaches and was incapable of falling asleep unless drugged or blackout drunk. Sick of taking temporary fixes to dull the pain and having to be sedated every night, he called up some old sage healer who was said to know how to fix things nobody else could explain, and the healer heard his symptoms and went
"Hmm. You spend too much time being a king. Your skull is packed so full of kingly thoughts that they don't all fit in there and that's why your head is in pain. You need to spend time not being a king." And prescribed him to schedule three days every month where he must go to a peasant village where nobody knows he's the king, live with a family there under a fake name and identity, work in the rice fields with them, eating the same food and sleeping on the same mats. Absolutely nobody is allowed to address him as the king, speak to him of any royal or political matters, and he himself is not allowed to think any kingly thoughts or think of himself as the king.
And naturally, this worked. Taking a regular scheduled break from a highly stressful office desk job to completely decompress, paired with physical exercise in the form of hard but simple physical labour, plain and simple food and Just Not Thinking About Your Fucking Job All The Time does help chronic stress, which here was worded as "spending too much time being a king clogs your brain."
Sometimes you do have ghosts in your blood, though I'm not entirely sure whether you should do cocaine about it.

hating tiktok is not a "back in my day" type thing. tiktok is objectively affecting other social media platforms in detrimental ways. ux elements are being stripped and everything has to have a fucking short video clips function. it's rampant homogenization and it's a problem
. yeah
I started a dumb stim game yesterday that seemed like a good way to quell the adhd while I listened to audiobooks and I was gonna throw them a couple bucks for ad free but what they wanted was EIGHT DOLLARS A WEEK. To frost cupcakes on a conveyor belt. On a mobile game with shitty graphics.
Anyway, that last tweet goes way to hard.

Winnie Ille Pu
Who the heck translated Winnie the Pooh into Latin. Why would you ever do that.
(It is a rhetorical question: I am aware of the translator on the cover.)
I found another Pooh book in Latin!
favorite bits of the cast interviews in the LOTR special features:
Dominic Monaghan, Billy Boyd, Elijah Wood and Viggo Mortensen all taking the piss out of Orlando Bloom for going on about a cracked rib too much, while Orlando Bloom desperately tries to wriggle out of talking about it (special mention to Elijah Woodâs âoh it hurts, babes, and I canât ride the horse, babesâ and Viggo Mortensenâs âthey can be very fragile, elves, especially theâŚMirkwood strainâŚâ)
Ian McKellen commenting that âthey never did find any suitable underwear for GandalfâŚâ
Dominic Monaghan going on and on about how Viggo Mortensen apparently had a crush on one of the Rohirrim extras (who like a lot of the Rohirrim extras was a woman in a fake beard) while Vigoo Mortensen just mutters âone could perhaps say something about Mr. MonaghanâsâŚproclivitiesâŚâ
Dominic Monaghanâs imitation of John Rhys-Davies ordering food at a restaurant for the whole cast. âYou have partridge? BRING THE PARTRIDGE!â
John Rhys-Davies talking about an incident with the Lothlorian boats and saying âif an elf and a dwarf are in a boatâŚandâŚthe boat goes underâŚlet us say that the blame was not placed on the elfâ while Orlando Bloom splutters âheâs a big guy, man!âÂ
Elijah Wood talking about how the hobbit actors shared a trailer with Ian McKellen and sometimes they would hear inarticulate bellows of protest from his side when they played loud music in the mornings
Viggo Mortensen talking about how, while filming with those same boats, Kirin Shaw (Elijah Woodâs scale double) started telling him âif the boat tips overâŚsave yourselfâŚI canât swim.âÂ
Elijah Wood describing how Sean Astin would try to direct the helicopters to land while they were on location, while the other three hobbits were screwing around and throwing pinecones at each other
Christopher Lee recounting how he had so much trouble going up some steps in Orthanc with his long robe that he stopped in the middle of the scene and said, âI cannot get up these goddamn steps, Peter.âÂ
Viggo Mortensen mentioning that he left a weekend rehearsal and went walking down the street still swinging his sword around, and promptly got the cops called on him
I swear Iâm laughing so hard I canât breathe
Truth is, it reads more like "she can do everything" and "him, it's just Ken"
And ken is a slang used in French that means "to fuck"
So "Him, it's just fucking"
Which I think is even more hilarious
there is no greater proof that no one cares about ken than the fact that in french a ken doll is literally a fuck toy and none of us knew about it
Had to explain it to some friends this morning so I'm copying it here
friend 1: [shares the tweet]
friend 2: johannes please confirm
me: I can confirm
you can read it like "She can do anything. He's just Ken." and that's clearly the intent but there's a type of slang called verlan where you basically reverse words https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verlan
"verlan" is verlan of "l'envers" (reversed) like if you want to say idk "policeman" there's the correct word "policier" but there's also among other words the more familiar "flic" and if you say it in verlan it's "keuf". COUREZ YA LES KEUFS (that would be one of the local equivalents of RUN, THE PIGS ARE COMING)
SO
one of the words to say "to fuck" is "niquer". And the verlan of that one is "ken". HAHAHA TU T'ES FAIT KEN (HAHAHA GET FUCKED) SO tldr you can also read that tagline like "She can do anything. He can just fuck."
I hope this answers your question
friend 1: That absolutely rules
Thank you Johannes that's made my morning
me: you're welcome
TiL
French has backslang
The backslang for "Ken" is "fucktoy" đ
thank you johannes Tumblr university is the best adult learning program
Okay, THIS sorts it out! Fabulous. đ
One of the most life-changing things I ever learned came from Mythbusters, where they tested and proved (with cognitive testing puzzles and reaction time tests) that lying down and resting with the intention to sleep STILL provided significant mental benefits over just staying awake, even if a person couldnât fall asleep in the amount of time they had.Â
It helps me to actually sleep to know that just lying down with my eyes closed is still doing me some good, and helps me to not freak out/beat myself up when I stay up later than intended. Any amount of rest is better than no rest!
So if you didnât know thatâŚnow you do
do you know that i think of this post every time i canât sleep op. what mythbusters did for you, you have done for a great many others.Â
A language tip for all the french guys out there

There are many animals I expect to see in caves, but I can confidently say that this was not one of them.
