Life and Hilarious Things :D

Randomness, that's what it is.

[edenheil]

Imma pass the fucking out when I get home.

Loki: HA! That's a fucking lie if I ever heard one.

[lokissed]

Thor: All you need to know about me is that last night I fought a giant to prove a point.

Thor: The point was that I wasn't drunk.

Thor: I was.

[kirkspocks]

odin is like “when thor was born the sun shone bright upon his beautiful face. i found loki on the sidewalk outside a taco bell”

[chromalogue]

Oðinn spake:

Bright the sun shone | at the time of Þor’s birth, And bathed his count'nance fair. Loki, wolf-father, | the trickster, the liar, I found on the cold pavement While returning in glory | from a grand hunt For a 3 AM quesadilla.

@systlin

My husband complained that this was more Shakespeare than Eddas, and I challenged him to do better.

Solen sken, skönt gyllene

Dagen Tor föddes

På trottoaren, vid Taco Bell

Där låg Loke

—KJN

My translation:

The sun shone, sweet golden

The day of Tor’s birth

On the tarmac, by Taco Bell

There lay Loki

(For poetry reasons, Thor needs the Swedish spelling.)

So I live in Scotland, a country with free universal healthcare, and this post made me curious about how much that actually costs us. Turns out, roughly 4% of our income tax goes to the National Health Service. For me that’s £10 a month. The equivalent of $13. I have spent more than that on a pizza.

[sniperct]

This is literally the argument I use the most

[coolpassing]

Another thing that I hate is the idea that my identity isn’t “age appropriate” for children. Like, my mom described my girlfriend as “a friend of mine” to my 10 year old sister (who unbeknownst to my mom, knows that I am gay have a gf). That shit hurts! It’s really fucking hurtful that people I love think of my being gay as something that children “wouldn’t understand” and should therefore be shielded from. Surprise: children are generally uninterested in the particulars of adult dating/relationships. So if you tell them two people are together they will just take your word for it and not immediately launch into questions about gay sex. Incredible!

[jemthecrystalgem]

Seriously, dismantle the harmful misconception that same gender relationships are somehow more “adult” than different gender ones

[glumshoe]

One of my 11 year old campers came out as bisexual one night at camp. “Oh, yeah, I’ve known I like boys since I was nine,” he said. “It’s not big deal. Not like it was back in YOUR day.”

Another 12 year old camper came out as trans one night. All my kids immediately switched to using her chosen name as soon as she explained herself, and then went back to playing Magic.

[steeleholtingon]

Oh, yeah, this so freaking hard to explain. Me, to my 9 and 12 year old boys: Your cousin Alicia is marrying her girlfriend, Alice. My boys: Okay. Me, when another cousin came out: Hey kids, go clean up your rooms. Josh and his new boyfriend, Jeremy are coming over. Kids: But I don’t WANT to clean my room! Me, when their bisexual cousin John proposed to his girlfriend: Hey kids, John and Jill are getting married. Kids: Okay. Kids: Mom, why doesn’t Sarah date? Me: Because she doesn’t want to. I’ll admit, the conversation about their friend’s dad becoming a woman was a more complex conversation, because it was a great opportunity to talk about gender and biology as separate things, but it ended with: 

Hey kids, Katie’s dad, Carl, is now a woman, and she’s called “Charlotte.” Kids: “Cool.” It’s not that hard, people.

[blazingjaya]

Seriously.

My daughter (age 13) Mum I’m a lesbian and I’m dating Katie.

My son (age 15) ok so I’m asexual and I’m non binary and I really need people to use the right pronouns.

Me: no worries **emails teachers to request they use the correct pronouns**

THIS IS NOT HARD PEOPLE JUST TREAT CHILDREN LIKE HUMAN PEOPLES THEY GET THIS SHIT AND UNDERSTAND IT BETTER THAN YOU DO.

[clatterbane]

Kids won’t even learn to act weird about this stuff unless adults model that for them. Using children who have no reason to even care as an excuse is several extra levels of messed up.

(See also: “Children are cruel!” Yeah, some of them learn fast. Especially when nasty behavior gets excused and encouraged.)

[naamahdarling]

“Children are cruel!” Yeah, some of them learn fast.

I just got a chill.

[aqueerkettleofish]

Okay, everyone is correct about kids being able to roll with whatever, but… I think the thing you’re missing the goal.  They’re not trying to solve the problem of “Kids will think this is weird.”  They’re trying to solve the problem of “Kids will just roll with it.”  

They don’t want kids to roll with it.  They want kids to be completely ignorant about these things so that:

a) if they see a queer person when they get older, they will have no frame of reference for it, and will consider it weird,

and more importantly,

b) if the kid happens to BE a queer person when they get older, they will have no frame of reference.  They want the kid to react with shame and confusion and bury that shit deep down. 

“For the children” is almost always polspeak for “So we can control the children better” or “So we can use children as an excuse to control the adults.”  It’s usually the latter, as “for the children” is the first phrase a censor learns.  But in this case, it’s both.

They complain that allowing kids to know of the existence of queer people before they graduate college is some kind of “indoctrination”, but in reality, they’re worried about interference with their own indoctrination.

I was at Walmart with my friend and her son, whom is basically my nephew. This random lady came up to us, and started talking about how adorable and well behaved he was. Then she asked: "Is this your mommy? I think she would look good in the dress you are looking at."

Without missing a beat he says: "No, they are my uncle, and no they wouldn't." Mind you, he was 4 or 5 at the time, and had no idea what gender was. He just knew. I think he was more annoyed that the women assumed based on appearance.

[edenheil]

I just wanna stay home and listen to Taemin all day. Is that a thing I can do? Can adulting be cancelled?

This is one of the best interactions I’ve ever had.

Two school age kids: “Oh look at the big white puppy!”

Their mother: “Come here, let me explain something to you. That dog is a Service Dog. Whenever you see a dog in a store like this you can’t distract it cause it’s working.”

Two kids: “What do you mean he’s working?”

Mom: “He helps that girl. You know how at school your teacher tells you to be quiet so you don’t get distracted doing your work? It’s the same thing with that dog. You can’t distract him.”

Two kids: “What does he help her with?”

Mom: “That’s her business. Your business is to not distract him so he can work.”

If children can understand so can you.

[bugaxboo-deactivated20190331]

Jeez, this NEEDS to be boosted. I have a friend who’s training a service dog ( his name is Noble and he is beautiful ), but the problem is that while out in public people sometimes have NO respect for her or the dog, they touch him, try to get his attention and even try to feed him ( HUGE no no for a pupper in training ). There’s even times when she herself gets treated poorly by people for telling then they can’t pet her dog, so please try to spread this around so that people can understand why it’s important to respect service dogs and their handlers

[adamcansuckme]

That’s her business.

Your business is to not distract him so he can work.

We need more parents like this!

Noah fence but that’s what I, as a vegan, have been talking about all along

[susielesbian]

don’t make this about your veganism. this is about the government shutdown and its effect on the food industry

[c-bassmeow]

we can have an e. coli outbreak in lettuce or spinach and your veganism won’t fix that 

[asteri-desmevetai-deactivated20]

Because of the government you shouldn’t be eating lettuce or spinach due to the recent ecoli outbreaks. Please be safe.

*packs up moves to Germany or Japan* Byyyyyyee!!! I am done.

[incorrectnorse-quotes]

Loki: I like the idea of a romantic couple calling each other synonyms of cliché nicknames.

Loki: "Love bunny" is "affection rabbit".

Loki: OR..

Loki: "Candied vascular system" is "sweetheart".

Sigyn: Do babygirl.

Loki: "Infant woman"

I thought the Windows phone killed over AGES ago. I've seen ONE person have one in the last six years. I didn't think they would have bother even updating the old ones they had, because (from my understanding) they were a flop.

Loki and Thor, the lightning and the thunder

Legend has it that Loki, protector of men, knew the wrath of Thor and knew that his anger unleashed the most powerful storms and the blows of his hammer the most fearsome thunder, and he knew that men would be afraid of his wrath, for this he, Thor’s partner in many stories, he had planned to alert the men of his anger to a signal that would warn them that thunder would soon be heard.

He, creator of Lokabrenna, put a light in the sky (the lightning) just before each blow of the hammer (the thunder) and thus the men would be alerted

So, if Thor represents thunder, then Loki the swift walker of the skyes, represented the lightning running ahead of the noises that Thor’s goat cart produced.

@annievvv7 I found the legend that told me when I was a little girl
