“Your lamb Christina, O Jesus, Calls out to You in a loud voice: I love You, O my bridegroom, And in seeking You, I endure suffering. In Baptism I was crucified so that I might reign in You, And died so that I might live with You. Accept me as a pure sacrifice, For I have offered myself in love. By her prayers save our souls, since You are merciful.”

these photos of my cat were taken 12 hours apart today
this year i am going to reblog a lot of art i don’t care about because people remove the captions and i want to add artist credit back.
this art is by Martha Rich
Weirdly anti-millennial articles have scraped the bottom of the barrel so hard that they are now two feet down into the topsoil
its so wild like “this generation with no fucking money is learning to prioritize essentials” and all these chucklefucks can write is advertisements for these companies
at least our jeans won’t tear at the seams after two washes
FUCK FABRIC SOFTENER IT’S UTTERLY POINTLESS
AND FUCK DRYER SHEETS LITERALLY NOBODY EVER HAS ENOUGH OF A PROBLEM WITH STATIC TO WARRANT PAYING OUT THE ASS FOR THAT SHIT
DO YOU WANT CLEAN CLOTHES? YOU DON’T EVEN NEED TO BUY FUCKING DETERGENT JUST MAKE YOUR OWN* IT’S SO GODDAMN EASY AND 80X CHEAPER
FUCK THE ENTIRE LAUNDRY INDUSTRY *Fuck The Entire Laundry Industry Recipe
1 cup Washing Soda (not Baking Soda. Different things.)
1 cup Borax (not Boric Acid. Also a different thing.)
½ cup - 1 cup grated bar soap (you can use literally anything. I often use Ivory because it’s easy to get and I find it works well, a lot of people like Fels-Naptha, which is an actual laundry bar. Some people use Dr. Bronner’s. Really does not fucking matter.) After grating your soap, combine all ingredients. That’s it. That’s the whole thing. Use maybe a ¼ cup per load.
^^^ I’ve done this for years now and it works as well as any store bought detergent
WHAT Thank you, tumblr user awfullydull! Your URL does no justice to the good advice you give!
Also you can MAKE your own washing soda very VERY cheaply.
Step one: acquire $5 bag of baking soda from Costco.
Step two: lay that motherfucking baking soda out on a baking tray.
Step three: bake the baking soda on a tray in an oven at 400° for 1 hour (to make the moisture evaporate, leaving washing soda)
Step four: revel in how easy and cheap it is to make your own washing soda, and maybe take a moment to be angry that the industry upcharges the fuck out of something that is so easy to make.
I see some of y'all complaining about static and/or wanting nice smelling laundry. Go to a craft store, find 100% wool yarn balls. If it doesn’t come in a ball, ask an employee to make it into a tight ball for you. Wash in the washing machine to make it felted. Remove from washer, add a few drops of essential oil to the ball, allow to seep in. Dry with clothing. Doesn’t need to be rewashed ever, and if it stops smelling, add few more drops of essential oil. Bam, reusable dryer sheets.
FUCK THE ENTIRE LAUNDRY INDUSTRY!! FUCK EM!
it’s really weird to me that millennials perceive articles like this to be ‘anti-millennial’ and not like, ‘a company tries to market to a different generation who uses their products differently’? like, they did market research cause they want to make money from you, they aren’t judging your character.
more than anything i'm amused at this hard raging against the laundry-industrial complex
i’m 34 earth years old and i just made a sim of my close friend and made a human version of her childhood teddy bear to live with her and the bear is a barista and my friend sim is currently writing a novel called, ‘the roxy games’
all i care about in the world right now is increase mather's lovingly specific descriptions of comet varieties
“it’s common for professional mers to champion a particular ecological cause” how many “professional mers” (as in mermaids/men) are there

oh my god
If I were fierce, and bald, and short of breath, I’d live with scarlet Majors at the base, And speed glum heroes up the line to death. You’d see me with my puffy petulant face, Guzzling and gulping in the best hotel, Reading the Roll of Honour. ‘Poor young chap,’ I’d say—‘I used to know his father well. Yes, we’ve lost heavily in this last scrap.’ And when the war is done and youth stone dead, I’d toddle safely home and die — in bed.

This is Oscar (aka The Lion). He’s “the largest cat” my vet has seen in 20yrs. He’s also ridiculously grumpy, a giant thug, and the most possessively affectionate cat I’ve ever met. I adore him more than words. Even if he is a furniture-wrecking knob.

What a blessing to absolve yourself from corpse-broad smiles and exaggerated American grins. What a blessing to make your outward-facing mask your true self. To make your real true self the undiscovered mineral, the comet dust relegated to a trailbehind. It's fine, it moves in concert with its shepherd. How fortunate to scrutinize the rare birds, and to trivialize the common. All feathers fall, all wings still fly. Everything answers to the laws of physics, for there are many Museums in my father's house. As kept the buzz of locusts through the hum of feathers. Sticky-sour honey weighing down the flight. What a blessing to remain on the ground, face pressed in the mud. Prostrations which pay nothing ahead. What a blessing to keep yourself encircled to yourself.
Is there a biblical reason for evil, Anti-Christ types being called Damian or did the people who made that one movie just pick a name they thought sounded cool?
As far as I am aware, this trope begins with The Omen, and they pretty much picked the name because of its superficial similarity to the word “demon.” I have read that the name in early drafts was “Domlin,” but this was (thankfully) changed at the behest of the screenwriter’s wife.
The name Damian/Damien is not actually etymologically related to demon at all, and in fact derives from a Greek word meaning “to tame,” and was the name of a third century martyr.

i thought this partly stemmed from hesse's use of a concept dating back to like, hesiod
Let love fail, and vanish into tenuous air, and die by slow degrees. But to hate a woman once loved is a crime: that is an end fitting to savage minds. It is enough to be indifferent: he who ends love by hating, either loves still, or will find it hard to end his misery.

i was just looking through my flickr, which hasn’t been used regularly since… hmm. 2010? and my main takeaway is that i made so much disgusting-looking food when i was vegan/vegetarian, and i was so happy. haha.
i’m happier than i’ve ever been now, and i know those years were my most painful and anxious, but instead of capturing a false impression of what my life was like, i managed to capture all the things that made me truly happy, and i love all those dorky pictures.
you can look through it here if you’re super nosy.

do greek restaurants in america outside of philly put french fries in gyros? almost every place here does it and i’ve never encountered it elsewhere, but it’s pretty incredible. ‘vegetarian gyros’ are JUST french fries instead of meat (though regular gyros have fries in them too) and they are incredible and kind of taste like a chip and dip sandwich.
i had a gyro in athens with fries in it!
