Experimenting with binding.

Improvising

One good thing about a sprained knee is the bandages I took home from the hospital are going to be used to bind my chest.

what if instead of drops, rain fell all at once.

like, a two inch thick sheet of water just goes thwap, and then it’s sunny again

[mx-inactive-deactivated20211028]

Fun fact: This is what would happen if there was no air resistance, and it would actually come down so fast that it would kill us

Jupiter’s moon, Callisto.

[something-in-the-way-she-knows]

is no one going to explain what all the lights are

[wardens-oath]

they’re impact craters! callisto is one of the most heavily cratered object in the solar system, and as far as my very basic research has just gone, the light parts are essentially iced over impact craters

so, essentially, we’re looking at something with a very frosty/icy surface. they’re bright because they reflect the sun!

The Princess Finds Horns on her Head. European Folk & Fairy Tales Joseph Jacobs New York: G.P. Putnam’s Sons, 1916.

[dubiousculturalartifact]

My favourite part is her expression/body language. This is not a princess recoiling in horror at a terrible curse. This is not a princess smashing the mirrors & locking herself away in a tower, because who could ever love a monster. This is a princess who woke up one morning with big horns on her head, had a brief moment of surprise, then thought “Dannggggg. I look GOOD.”

she looks so cool with it and that is why I’m gonna marry her

Video shows Maryland cops REPEATEDLY pepper spray 15-year-old honor roll student.

5 ft 105 lbs girl, whose name has not been officially released yet, was brutalized by Hagerstown police after she on her bike was hit by a car, but refused medical assistance. 

Her family’s attorney says that when police arrived, they grabbed the little girl, lifted her hands above her head and slammed her face into a wall.

“They slammed her against a wall, arrested her for refusing treatment, maced her 4 times in the police car while handcuffed, and took her to the police station instead of the hospital.”

She was put in the car, which is when a bystander began filming the incident. The video shows the 15-year-old with her hands handcuffed behind her back kicking at the police car door and later a cop is heard saying: “Put your feet in, or you’re going to get sprayed!” Officer proceeds to pepper spray her a few times. 

The girl can be heard screaming: “I can’t breathe!”

The girl was only taken to hospital when she was released to her parents. 

Three hours after being pepper sprayed she was finally able to wash her eyes.

She is now charged with disorderly conduct, two counts of second-degree assault, possession of marijuana and failure to obey a traffic device.

grocery shopping when ok: I have a list of some items I need and a general idea of what nutrients and food-categories would be useful and I will compare prices and fill up a basket judiciously.

Grocery shopping when depressed: this tea looks nice…I think I need an onion? The general concept of orange juice. I have been here an hour. Everyone thinks I’m stealing. I don’t deserve this tea. The size of the Pacific garbage patch. *leaves store w 3 boxes of mac n cheese, an orange, and some eyeliner* where am I?

mary poppins fits the mythological role of a trickster god, discuss

[annabellioncourt]

She….she shows up in a time of dullness, creates chaos and drives on the story, but always is sure that everything is fixed, though changed, often for the better. Lessons were learned. Holy crap, she fits the archetype very well.

id take a bullet for u

[ukwonswife-deactivated20170629]

*male writer voice* i don’t remember her name. it’s not important. i met her at a record store and she went home with me because i offered to buy her cigarettes. she had amazing perky breasts. we drank cheap whiskey and had sex three times that night and then she told me she wanted to be a dragonfly because they were free. i slept with her many times after that. but one day she stopped returning my calls and i don’t know why. that was seven years ago. on monday she got hit by a bus and died. i saw it in the newspaper so i went to her funeral and it made me sad. i don’t know why. i hate my mother even though she pays my rent while i write poetry about masturbating in the shower

My life in a nutshell

reminder to people with chronic pain: just because you’ve gotten used to your disability doesn’t mean you are suddenly a faker and don’t need all the help you’re getting. Your condition is still there, you’ve just adapted for survival, you’re not a faker
