Darling

Marrying her creepy old guy ????

I wish I could give my life to someone who actually wants to live it. I feel like it's not fair. There are People who are about to die, though want to keep living so badly.. I wish I could just switch places with them.

why are there so many posts about asexuals being immune to sirens. people. sirens don’t lure you in with sex (necessarily). they sing about whatever it is that you want most. they could sing about mothman or cinnamon toast crunch and guess what then your asexual pirate is fucking dead

this is the only kind of ace discourse i ever want to see on my dash. the only kind. ever again. good job

Do you think the sirens would be grateful that they finally get some variety? 

“Oh my god we can finally just sing about pasta thank the fucking gods.” 

I’m not asexual but I’m fairly certain sirens would do a far better job luring me into the depths with a song about pasta rather than sex…

Them: “We have unlimited wifi at incredible speeds~” Me: *diving headfirst into the water*

This post is a blessing

Oh my god sirens were literally scam websites

Oh my god they were phishing

We all have that one class that triggers our fight or flight response

If you’re gay it’s probably PE

If you’re trans, it’s probably also PE

THIS!

some women be like “my man washed a dish once. I’m very lucky” and it makes me so sad for her like you just know she never cums

The thing is that Golding wouldn’t be surprised, because he didn’t intend Lord of the Flies to reflect upon human nature. He wrote it to reflect upon the nature of upper-class English schoolboys, specifically in response to a very saccharine story by another author where upper-class English schoolboys form a eutopia. He’d be mortified at the way schools teach it, and validated that the kids in this article did not, in fact, degenerate into evil little shits.

Seen a lot of hot takes on Twitter saying that the book is racist and that it’s a comment on colonialism or something, when like the above commenter says it was based on Golding’s own experience with how shitty public school-taught British schoolboys were/are.

If Lord of the Flies was summed up in a headline it would be “Commentary on Assholes mistaken for Commentary on Humanity”

I think that’s the fate of every such commentary, because it’s the nature of assholes to look at a commentary on the nature of assholes and go “Behold! The nature of man!”
