GET GRUFFALO'D, BITCH

[sagareads]

If you haven't heard of Julia Donaldson, she's primarily a picture book author, who we can thank for extremely popular Halloween classic Room on the Broom as well as the Gruffalo.

Let this be a testament to the power of picture books.

Her name is Valentina Petrillo and she is a visually-impaired sprinter.

Time to support her, because even without the racism element I expect she will be getting some flak from Awful, Awful People.

Oh my God, watch your step, there's gay little rats skittering around.

(Fun fact: the two rats holding the nonbinary flag are based on my two rats, Tim and Rat Brian. Peep them below the cut!)

Rest in peace, my baby boys, you'll forever be immortalized with the people who bought this print at Dashcon 2. q_q) 💖!!

[would-you-punt-them]

wait is it really true that "the noughties" isn't just a common expression in most of the world???

like, people must at least know it, right? it's just that i don't want to put it in a post and have everyone stare at me blankly like they did when i said "fortnight"

Do you ever use the term "noughties"?

Yeah, I'll use it sometimes / interchangeably

Nope, I'd personally never think to say it, but I'm familiar with the word

I've literally never seen that word before in my life

Voting ended onJun 6

[would-you-punt-them]

you as a child in the noughties

[would-you-punt-them]

see. this is why they stopped naming decades after 2009. because all of you thought you were hot shit and such whimsy was beneath you.

and now look where we are. the fucking "tWeNtY-TwEnTiEs"

I love that I learned about mega churches the old fashioned way many years ago.

I was on a train here in Denmark with my boyfriend at the time and we randomly got into a conversation with a very friendly young American guy. At some point he said he enjoyed how religion played a very small role here and mention growing up Christian and going to a mega church in the US.

We had no idea what he meant by mega church. He seemed equally surprised that we didn’t. When he explained it I remember feeling like he was explaining an alien culture to me. What do you mean it’s a church with room for thousands of people? Aren’t churches supposed to be close knit communities where people know each other? How can they hear the priest? Speakers? Yeah okay that makes sense. But can people even see the priest? Giant screens!? Okay that seems a bit much. What do you mean stage show!?

Please please imagine a very gentle American trying to not sound insane to two dumbfounded Danes with thick accents while they’re sitting on a train with the flat yellow flower fields going by at great speed outside on a bright summer day. It’s one of my favourite memories.

yesterday my grandma found a penny on the floor and said to my grandpa “there’s that penny again, pa!” and i absolutely lost my mind because i couldn’t shelve the thought of a single panel Far Side comic of two old people on the front porch in the middle of nowhere and a giant penny angrily and inexplicably rolling through the wastes

“there’s that penny again, pa!”

I always find it strange that men and women of the same height are perceived very differently on the short-tall scale, at least among white people in the US. as a kid, I shot up in early middle school and spent that time being drastically taller than my friends (who were pretty much exclusively girls). this really skewed my perception of how tall I was for years and years. for context I'm 5'7", and that same height for a man would make them a "short king". iirc, I'm also the average height for a person in the US, so it's odd for someone of my height to be either short or tall. so why am I tall and my uncle of the same height is short? is it comparison? is it some sort of weird gender essentialism? what is it?
