welcome to my brain, make yourself at home!

you can't waste your life btw it's just not something that's possible to do. your mere existence is already a precious and valuable use of your time. the time you spent becoming who you are now was inherently worthwhile

nothing can break the bond between a friend who loves spoilers and a friend who just watched an amazing show and needs to tell someone the entire plot from start to finish

[demadogs]

alternatively: nothing can break the bond between a friend who doesnt read and a friend who just read an amazing book and needs to tell someone the entire plot from start to finish

nothing can break the bond between a friend who cannot and will not watch horror but is still interested and a friend who just watched an amazing horror movie and needs to tell someone the entire plot from start to finish

do you think two pennies is still enough for the ferryman or has inflation driven up the fare

if he makes me use an app I am simply not crossing the river Styx.

It’s important to know that hijab is banned in schools in most of the european countries, such as france, belgium, switzerland etc. Millions of girls have to take their hijab off everyday in order to have access to education, and I am one of them. Please spread this as much as possible, it has become so normal here that I feel like a fool for even mentioning it, but I’m pretty sure it goes against the human rights. This senseless law has been on since 2004 and pretends that all the students have to be “equal” and it is prohibited to show that you belong to any religion, any religious sign must be set aside. However, most of us have to take our hijab off in schools where you can clearly see a christmas tree or a christian cross. “Yeah but it’s not the same”, they say. Tell me about double standards. I pray for days when we don’t have to chose between religion and education.

please god above can someone explain to me why we're still working on self driving cars when trains exist

[teaboot]

"we're training them to interpret road signs!" Train goes same place every day. No road signs.

"when forced to choose between old lady and child, which is more ethical for the car to hit?" Fence around train track. Nobody on the road.

"people with disabilities preventing them from driving themselves can be independent" Yes but also. Train.

"reduces the dangers of fatigue with long distance trucking" Train.

"the technology is not yet price effective for the average driver" Train.

Seriously come on choo choo bitches let's goooooooooo

Reblogging again cause I tried this site last night and if you need background noise to focus this is perfect for that, I was locked the fuck in on a task. And it’s also just gorgeous to listen to

this is not news but I was thinking about how much "being socialized" as a girl does in terms of feelings of shame, in general, but specifically in regards to being neurodivergent/autistic. the way cis men seem to be often unaware of certain social standards and the way people perceive you. because they are not taught to monitor every single way they appear and interact with others as much as girls are.

this is obviously tied to subjective experiences as well and the way each brain is wired but I was just thinking about how much shame I've always felt for my interests and hyperfixations and the way I engage with them, how I'm so pervaded by this sense of shame even about the things I enjoy, so much I end up masking even the genuine excitement I feel because it is not acceptable.

I don't know where I'm going with this anyways lmao it's 2 am. probably missed a lot of nuance about this topic but bear with me

Reading Habits That'll Save Your Sanity as a Reader (Who Wants to Make Reading Part of Your Everyday Routine)

Set a SMART Goal You Can Accomplish SMART = Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Timely. Choose a goal that works for YOU instead of aiming to read 100 books a year because it seems impressive.

Lower Your Expectations Look at your previous reading accomplishments. Where did you struggle vs succeed? Set fresh goals you know you can accomplish, then aim higher as you develop a reading habit.

Associate Reading With Already Routine Activities Make coffee + grab your Kindle. Crawl into bed + grab your CR. Get on the bus + start reading. Adding it to an already-established routine will MAKE it routine.

Take Your Book or Kindle EVERYWHERE To work. To a friend’s house. To the gym. Everywhere. Keep it in sight as a reminder to read!

Have a Reading Buddy Let them hold you accountable. Become cheerleaders for each other. Share + exchange books!

Become an Eager Beaver Get excited about reading time. Make a whole ado about it. Prepare a fancy drink, fill a bowl with your favorite snack, put on some music. Don’t make it a chore; make it your favorite part of the day!

Stop Prioritizing Your TBR > Books You WANT to Read Read what you want to read, when you want to read it. Don’t feel pressured by trending books or books that don’t spark your interest. Read what you love + you’ll enjoy the process.

Blab About the Books You Love Most Tell Bookstagram. Tell Threads. Tell your best friend who is sick of hearing about that romantasy series you’ve been tackling all year. Tell a neighbor. Talk about the books you love + make them part of your journey!

What reading habits have you picked up recently?

The Odyssey but retold as a low-stakes modern adventure of one guy out with his girlfriend leaving the bar with his buddies to do just one (1) simple thing real quick, it'll take like 15 minutes tops, he'll be right back, but then some bullshit happens and the trip keeps getting more complicated as more bullshit keeps happening while he just tries to get back to the bar because he promised his girlfriend that he'd get back and he knows that she's still there because she told him she'd wait there.

And by the time he finally gets back it's almost 3 am and the bar is about to close while she's sitting there stone cold sober, surrounded by 5 drunk guys unsuccessfully trying to convince her to give up on waiting for him and go home with one of them instead. And the guy shows up to proceed to beat the shit out of them before explaining himself to her like hey sorry bullshit kept happening, my phone fell into a storm drain and my wallet got stolen when I was trying to find someone who'd borrow me a phone so I could call and

[thekijs]

His girlfriend had been fending off the 5 drunk guys for most of the evening by explaining that even if she was going to ditch her boyfriend, she can't possibly leave without finishing her beer, which she is keeping perpetually full via careful sleight of hand where she's just pouring it back and forth into and out of the pitcher.

However the drunk guys are also drinking, and eventually she can't afford to buy another pitcher for the table so she can't keep up the ever-full beer glass trick. At this point she has to resort to setting up the pool trick shot that she's never seen anyone but her boyfriend pull off, and says she'll leave with whoever manages the shot first.

That buys her another hour or so and then, finally, her boyfriend makes it back. He looks like shit, hair down and just a mess, he's wearing an entirely different jacket that he got from an alley, and barely recognizable—especially to 5 guys who've been drunk for hours now. He lurks for a minute, finds out what's going on, and proceeds to pull off the trick shot first try. Throws the jacket off, fixes his hair with a hair tie his girlfriend lends him, finally looks like himself again, and THEN beats the shit out of them with the pool cue.
