the existence of uncanny valley would suggest there is also a canny mountain

Reading this book is like being hit on the head by a cast-iron pan multiple times

The author of my statistics book is self-deprecating so hard

A non-comprehensive list of things that shocked my Russian roommate here in Italy:

- the fact that girls go to the bathroom together and have no problem being undressed in front of each other

- little forehead kisses in the morning

- nose boops

- butt slaps: it’s pretty ok for same-sex friends (mostly girls) to slap each other’s butts as a joke (there is consent dw)

- the very concept of merenda, which she used to call “OP’s second breakfast”

- the food packaging

- gnocchi

- the existence of the vegetable known as leek

- the fact that we only keep the heating on for 3 hours during winter

- mandatory recycling

It keeps evolving

What’s it called like when you are the friend that like doesn’t have their shit together and is completely unhinged but also tells you to clean your room and be responsible and lectures you when you do something dumb

Nothing better than an espresso and a splash of cow’s juice to start your day the Continental way

"Si mañana soy yo, mamá, si mañana no vuelvo, destrúyelo todo. Si mañana me toca, quiero ser la última." "If tomorrow it's me, mom, if tomorrow I don't come back home, destroy it all. If tomorrow it's my turn, I want to be the last one" "Se domani sono io, mamma, se domani non rientro, distruggilo tutto. Se domani tocca a me, voglio essere l'ultima." "Si demain c'est moi, maman, si demain je ne rentre pas, détruis tout. Si demain c'est mon tour, je veux être la dernière." Cristina Torres Cáceres

Another shock I received in North America was discovering that y'all don't recycle. Like, the dorms only had a bin for plastic and that was it, and no-one was using it. Throwing everything together felt super wrong but there was no other option

The biggest mistake was teaching me statistics. Now every time I am presented with a survey I answer with one of the most extreme options to ensure that the results get completely fucked up by my outliers. Stay toxic ✨

Love them for starting a coffee revolution in Greece. I particularly appreciate the petition to rename Macedonia to Alexandrouchora and to make femboys now legal again after years of repression. They've got my vote (I am not a Greek citizen)

I just realized that the translation for cottage cheese in Italian is literally "Milkflakes" and now I refuse to call it cottage cheese

How do I unset my Tumblr from Freedom Hours to military time? I am physically bothered by the AM-PM thing.
