Time To Watch Bad Movies On Purpose @fair-itself - Tumblr Blog

Sometimes you get out a knife and a cutting board and a plate and you take a block of cheese out of the fridge and unwrap it, and then you think to yourself, "Would what I'm thinking of doing be a celebration of the fact that I'm a grown-up with my own house and no one can stop me from living in a way that brings me joy, or would it be a sign that living alone is morphing me into a cave gremlin with no standards or decorum?" And then you do not take a big bite out of the unwrapped block of cheese, because you're pretty sure it's the second one.

#I'm not saying that would be the case for you #maybe for you it'd be the first one #my point is that an open and honest exploration of the facts is key #my thoughts #cheese

Ok so lemme get this straight the boys get advertised their body weight in protein powder and girls are told to get by on uncooked foliage and I’m supposed to believe that the observed differences in gender are strictly because of sex chromosomes with no cultural influence at all uh huh sure hey buddy what kind of idiot

don’t like it when I’m about to board a plane to America and discover it just came from there not one hour ago and is getting sent straight back, like please put this girl in the stables and give her some oats, rub her coat till it shines, she’s earned a rest

Not to worry! My father was a pilot for several decades, and explained to me that planes are always eager to get back to the skies, and that being made to stay grounded for too long can be far more stressful for them. It might also ease your mind to know that they have home territories that they prefer to visit regularly, and if they've come from America, chances are good they're far more antsy to return home than to wait around in unfamiliar territory with other strange planes. An hour or two is plenty of time for them to eat and drink, and they digest better in the air than on ground, so it may be a matter of their comfort to get going again!

This is true! As terrestrial beings, we tend to think of the ground as a safe place to rest and the sky as a place animals must constantly exert themselves and exercise vigilance. But planes utilize thermals to rise to great heights and glide rather than flapping their wings, and once they reach altitude, they expend very little energy to stay aloft. And because planes have no natural predators and only (except in rare cases) consume the fuel and cargo that makes up the entirety of their diet on the ground, they must be on the lookout for neither food nor predators in the air, and rarely encounter other creatures in the air at all. When planes do encounter each other in the sky, they use highly fine-tuned senses to avoid crossing into each other's territories, thus making airborne intraspecies conflict nearly non-existent. Most planes prefer to eat quickly and get back into the sky as soon as possible in order to avoid the stress of small scavengers like baggage tugs and belt-loaders attempting to muscle in on their dinner. Planes are highly specialized creatures that thrive on the wing, and most enjoy a long layover about as much as you do!

#why didn't you use a template to install the cabinet handles straight #why didn't you tape off the ceiling and trim before painting the walls #why did you hang every piece of wall art with giant plastic screws that left holes the size of dimes everywhere #where in god's name did you get the appalling light fixture in the dining room #p.s. i hope your new house is nice and that you got your baby book of the month i mailed you when they shipped it here by mistake #you seemed really lovely during the sale but i hope if the new place needs any renovations you pay a professional to do them

I don't go here but I feel like "It's a metaphor. Don't force it to do the work of a fact." is a great statement about literature and fan-content in general.

I don't know, part of me gets frustrated about answers like this, because I want to be like, "Yeah, man, we know it's not real, but we're curious about the world you created and we're trying to play in the space with you. If there's no answer, you can just say that without being condescending and we'll come up with our own." But on the other hand, many fans do NOT understand metaphor, do NOT have a healthy respect for the creator and their vision, and feel entitled to an answer because anything without a tidy explanation is a "plot hole." So like, I get it. I don't know.

Anyway, I always assumed the daemon just kind of pops into existence at some point. Like, you look away for a minute, and you look back, and there's a baby mouse curled up asleep on the baby's chest, and you call everyone into the room to look because it's kind of the baby's first milestone moment.
