Rereading Howls Moving Castle is so funny to me.

Sophie is so alone she starts to talk to things and later she channels her true self which has chronic unable to shut up disease so she just spouts out magic CONSTANTLY and induces everything around her with it.

There is a town full of people walking around with life altering magical hats. The chaos this could cause is immeasurable but nobody even knows. skdlakga

She picks a random stick from the site of the road and after half a day this thing becomes so powerful she is able to stop Howls Castle (which is powered by Calcifer canonically a powerful entity) in it's tracks by just saying stop. skflag

I mean can you imagine being calcifer just going about his day and suddenly a great force stops you and you are like wtf are we under attack?? is it the witch? or whoever howl is ghosting at that moment?? and in walks a not quite grandma who releases magic with every sentence like it's nothing wtf.

And if you take into account that a good whitch/magician is most likely abel to see/feel sophies magic (Afterall the witch of the waste awas able to notice the spell -or lack there off- in every hat in the hat shop.) Can you imagine how Howl must have felt living with Sophie? Everytime she opens her mouth -and like mentioned before, Sophie has a lot to say about many things- it must have felt like someone was throwing daggers around constantly EVERYWHERE. skdgfh

(And Howl is like yeah thats the girl of my dreams.)

I love this book so much. It brings me so much joy. (I'm not even at chapter 4)

I’d like to know what the first person to put human clothing on a dog was thinking

[glumshoe]

like were dogs even dogs yet or did someone manage to squeeze a particularly patient tamed wolf into a leather shirt and then howl with laughter as it trotted around the cooking fires dressed like Uncle Urg begging for food scraps

[glumshoe]

the wolf started running backwards in circles trying to get out of Uncle Urg’s shirt and everyone is laughing so hard that the sleeping children and young mothers and old folk wake and come out of their hide huts and observe First Funny Dog galloping around in the moonlight, and a tradition is born

[youaresogoingtohell]

There was a brief but decisive evolutionary bottleneck of canines that begrudgingly allowed homo-chimps to live after sticking them in a corset.

[glumshoe]

“Will you flush game for me, Wolf, when I go hunting the wild things beneath the trees?” asked Human.

“I will,” said Wolf, “If only you leave me the bones and scraps of meat from your kills.”

“That is well,” said Human. “And will you use your ears and eyes and nose to guard me while I rest, and warn me when lions prowl too near?”

“I will,” said Wolf, “If only you let me lie in the warmth of your cooking-fires.”

“But of course,” said Human. “And will you do as I command, and follow me wherever I go, and love my children and grandchildren as you would love your own?”

“I will,” said Wolf, “If only you scratch me where my claws cannot reach, and pet me, and heal my injuries when I am wounded.”

“Always,” said Human. “And will you let me dress you up in funny clothes, and dance around, and do little tricks for me to laugh at?”

Wolf hesitated, and eyed Human warily for some time, weighing its choices. “That depends,” it said. “Will you tell me I’m a good boy?”

Human smiled. “The goodest boy,” it said.

Dog wagged its tail, and Wolf was no more.

I’ve reblogged it before, and I’ll say it again: this prose is right up there with Kipling’s Just So Stories. A modern literary masterpiece. I feel compelled to make an illuminated manuscript of it.

[wholeheartedsuggestions]

eventually you realize you don’t want to die. you just don’t want to live the life you’re living. and slowly you try to create a life you want to live. just gotta start there.

[wholeheartedsuggestions]

no one needs to add “sounds fake but ok”, “no”, “well, not me”, “impossible”, etc. to this post. and i’d rather you not.

[duckbunny]

one day you think: I want to die.

and then you think, very quietly: actually. actually. I think I want a coffee. a nap. a sandwich. a book.

and I want to die turns day by day into I want to go home, I want to walk in the woods, I want to see my friend, I want to sit in the sun

I want a cleaner kitchen

I want a better job

I want to live somewhere else

I want to live

I’d just really love to see luke transition from  burdened war veteran into a gentle teacher, ya know?

[tiktokmuseum]

are men okay?

[siderealsandman]

NO

[zymomonasmobilis]

my husband told me, after many years of being together, that when he was about 7 a teacher used to single him out for being disrespectful at school. Apparently his disrespectful offense was “smirking” too much???? So he got punished for smiling???? And eventually just trained himself to stop smiling so this teacher would leave him alone???? And that’s why he has such a stoic facial expression now and can’t smile for photographs.

I had to.....privately cry after hearing that one

[thanos-the-dad-titan]

Wow

[themildestofwriters]

It’s the only way men are able to discuss their issues because society taught them that they shouldn’t burden people with their issues or that their issues are meaningless or that their issues aren’t actually a thing. Sharing anecdotes with friends is one way of talking about it, because they feel comfortable enough to share. At the same time, they might just not know that the event was traumatic because it’s trauma y’all.

[crucefix]

There’s a hundred-thousand streets in this city. You don’t need to know the route. You give me a time and a place, I give you a five minute window. Anything happens in that five minutes and I’m yours. No matter what. Anything happens a minute either side of that and you’re on your own. Do you understand? Drive | 2011 | dir. Nicolas Winding Refn

In moments like this I always fall back on the fact that they also aren’t speaking English because they don’t have England or the many languages and conquering peoples that contributed to the creation of the English language and therefore the work musr be a translation into recognizable terms in our world’s terms. Call that Tolkien Brainrot.

[lurkerwithcomputer]

It’s called “Translation Convention” but “Tolkien Brainrot” is funnier.

[chronomally]

This whole fucking time I thought the mall near my apartment was going to be holding a Grinch vs. Santa wrestling match but now I’m pretty sure it was just a creative way to announce they’re going to have both Santa and the Grinch available for your kid to take pictures with

[chronomally]

THEY CALLED IT A WRESTLING MATCH WHY WOULD I NOT TAKE THEM AT THEIR WORD

[chronomally]

WAIT the associated Insta handle says more about wrestling please god let there actually be a wrestling match please

I was about to reblog this, and then I saw the picture and I got the joke, in that order.

like this is just what a normal D&D session is like

[luxlightly]

If I hadn’t seen this caption I literally would never have gotten the joke. This is just a perfect representation of a normal D&D session.

[ID: tweet by @SamSykesSwears (Sam Sykes), a verified Twitter, that says: “You enter a large cave. The Orcs’ trail led you here. Now, before you lie three paths, one of—“ “i jump into the water” “You can’t keep jumping in the water.
