New World, New Odyssey

ancient roman women whose husband keeps looking at the neighbour's boy quintus and he never looks at her that way and she can't even chainsmoke in the kitchen because they don't have marlboro blues in ancient times. and she can't even go to the club because they haven't discovered drum and bass music yet. her friend clodia's having visions of a woman named doechii but neither of them knows what that means

Tbh she and clodia were probably eating cannabis laced cakes, drinking wine and acting as each other's tribads under the guise of female friendship while someone laid it down on the hydraulis

explaining the concept of "blorbo from my shows" to a tudor era peasant and when i'm finished they grab my hand and start excitedly gesturing at a poster advertising a performance of shakespeare's hamlet at the globe theatre

[ID: tag: #this ‘blorbo’ doth please me greatly! Hast though seen the bard’s macbeth? For though lady macbeth did so much wrong she didn’t in my heart <3 /end ID]

Everyone say thank you sanitation workers we owe you our lives sanitation workers

In folk music men are always dying in industrial accidents and women are always haunting stuff. What if a woman dies in an industrial accident and a man walks these hills in a long black veil. What then

Honestly they'd both die less without the long veils. Those are workplace hazards

A FACT OF SCIENCE

If a particular air freshener scent is only ever used in bathrooms it becomes the smell of shit by proxy

at some point in your life you are going to do or say something racist, sexist, or otherwise bigoted. Your goal is not perfection, your goal is to be the kind of person that the people you've hurt feel safe being honest with when that happens.

Medication is so annoying. I don’t want to get up so I can take more ibuprofen because the cramps are starting up. I want to take 100 pills of Tylenol and 100 pills of Motrin at the beginning of any given cycle and then be good for like three months. Or one month! Or one week! It doesn’t have to be an efficient usage of the medication if it means I don’t have to think about it at all for a bit. That would be nice. But unfortunately this kills you. Yet another example of how the science engages in a constant conspiracy to make you get up out of bed just when the nap was getting good.

Gotta say, my absolute favourite notes on this so far have been the number of people congratulating Tony on his rebound from the Grinch.
