“The Blower’s Daughter” by Damien Rice already makes me sob, but if they kill Steve in s5 that song is going to unravel my dna one strand at a time..

republicans will be like “good news, everyone! we have passed legislation that will make it legal for us to shoot you in the chest” and dems will respond with “we have listened to the SCIENTISTS and the SCIENCE says that being shot in the chest is bad! and that is why we are proposing a BOLD counter-legislation that would provide FREE bulletproof vests to individuals making less than $30,000 per year!” and leftists are like “um yeah I guess if those are our only options I’ll pick the dems but why is it legal for you to shoot us in the chest? maybe they shouldn’t be able to do that in the first place? where’s that option?” and dems will be like “shut up and vote blue no matter who you stupid fucking hippie” and then you find out that the private company that makes the bullets and the vests funds both parties

Ok so I finished “Under the Whispering Door” and the stone wolf on the mantle is so obviously a “Wolfsong”/Green Creek Series Easter Egg, but are there others from other Klune books?

my toxic trait is immediately looking up any book i start reading on tumblr to see if there is a fanbase for it—yes I always see spoilers, no I never learn my lesson

A quiz for artists and writers to figure out the primary emotion they create from. 28 questions, 15 results that are about 150 words each, d

hey everyone 👋 take my uquiz i finished and then forgot about for months. it's 28 questions with 15 results and there's no lyrics or pop culture references so it should be friendly to non-americans and people like me who are just out of touch

[borkthemork]

Thanks, it’s not like I’m being called out or anything!

[brokenhardies]

that makes WAY too much sense tbh

[twinkrundgren]

o-oh

[made-in-manetheren]

Had no idea where this would go for me but if that isn't 100% it...I have to say, as a writer of hopeful escapist fiction about reaching potential we haven't in the real world yet, and as someone who's lost herself in her art every time the world has let her down, this was impressively well crafted.

i’m gonna make a movie where two normal ladies fall in love. everything’s chill, no age gap, they’re both out of the closet, their families love them, everything’s fine. the catch is that one lady has a cat and the other lady never figured out what the cat’s name was cause the Owner Lesbian ALWAYS uses a dumb nickname and now it’s been three years and they’re getting married and it’s too late to just ask

[cranewived]

[pheebheaux]

It’s garnering more and more urgency because the cat’s importance is growing (the cat is going to be the ring bearer, oh no!)

[j-uwu-ish]

The First Lady asks her fiancé if they should get a fancy collar with the cats name for the wedding and her fiancé throws her arms around her and says “great, would you go do that tomorrow?”

[brunhiddensmusings]

the longer i think about it the more that sounds like a valid conflict to base an entire movie around and the fewer problems i could think of that cant have a solid writing solution available

[aneternalfangirl]

“Just wanted to confirm the spelling before I gave the order, hun. This shit is costly and I only got one form.”

“Oh, just the normal spelling, no crazy vowels or anything.”

[sanscarte]

This is so good. Plus it’s not like you can try out likely names and see if the cat responds, like a dog might. It’s a cat. It’s just gonna sit and squint unblinkingly at you regardless, no matter how many names you try.

[prismatic-bell]

Plot twist:

It’s not a stupid nickname.

The cat really is “miss kitty.”

[butch-of-the-blades]

Y E S

[postmodernmulticoloredcloak]

no no no. the cat doesn’t have a name, the cat owner never decided on one so she just goes with various silly nicknames. but since her fiancée acts like she is aware of the cat’s name, the cat owner assumes the fiancée mistook one of the nicknames for the actual name. but she doesn’t know which! so the cat owner doesn’t know what the supposed cat name is either, and relies on the fiancée revealing it at some point, but it never comes and she’s getting agitated too because she doesn’t want to admit she never named her cat

[party-gilmore]

Hey hey hey in a similar vein to ^^^

What if

Neither if then know the name

Because it’s neither of their cat.

The cat decided to move in about the same time one of the girls did. Both think it’s the other one’s cat. Both are committing these increasingly elaborate shenanigans to figure out the name from the other.

“Mean girls all grow up to be nurses!”

“Mean girls all go into social work!”

“The mean girl to teacher pipeline!”

Y’all, these are just pink collar jobs. The reason you think there’s so many “mean girls” in these fields is because they’re all like 97% women. Of course some of them are gonna be assholes. There’s assholes everywhere.

We get it. Your job isn’t like other girls’ jobs. It’s a cool job.

[onepunchman]

it’s true that there are some incredibly cruel people in all of these professions.

it’s also true that they all suffer from chronic underpayment, overwork, lack of institutional support, and insane bureaucratic demands that would make them fail the people in their care all the time even if every single one was a saint.

[rotationalsymmetry]

That’s absolutely missing the point.

While those are all “helper” professions and they very much are pink collar (and are underpaid, that’s not an incompatible idea), they’re also ones that involve power over vulnerable people’s lives. (And I’ve only encountered it as a comparison to, say, male bullies becoming cops, it’s not like men aren’t being mentioned here.)

Secretaries/administrative assistants aren’t on that list for a reason. Flight attendants aren’t on that list. Housecleaners aren’t on that list. Receptionists. Customer service representatives. Dental hygienists. The people who style hair or do nails. That’s not a list of pink collar jobs. It’s specifically (pink collar) positions where if you want to abuse people you’re relatively likely to get away with it.

It can both be true that “nurses who care for disabled people need better pay” and “nurses who care for disabled people have a lot of opportunities to abuse their power and that’s something worth talking about.”

Women aren’t immune from treating people badly because they’re women, or because women are underpaid. They’re sure not immune from specifically seeking out jobs that will allow them to be cruel without any consequences to them, if they get personal satisfaction out of being cruel.

You are trying to shut down a conversation about abuse.

From like six months or so after Novenber, spn was like ALL I could think about (of course yeah this was a symptom of a larger problem lol but that stuff is mostly resolved now) but the other day I was in a coffeeshop and the speaker started playing Carry On Wayward Son, and despite having a visceral reaction to it, it got me thinking... I think at some point in the past couple of months I woke up one morning and just. . .  didn’t care about spn. like at all. It was like I had been under hypnosis or something and someone finally said the magic word to get me snapped out of it. 

Don’t know, from a psychological perspective, what this means, but frankly, I’m happy to leave it all behind lol. 

[angry-babey]

erm... i stayed up way too late last night to finish “Some Faraway Place” and I cannot get over how I was like all boppin to read a cute sapphic romance and then Lauren​ bonked over the head with an existential crisis instead
