When you can't drink alcohol but the brewery has the best soda (bottled in my dad's hometown of Breese, IL). #skisoda #excelbottling (at The Old Bakery Beer Company) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrlrHaIlOn7/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=18mkzb1mjzbce

I have no idea how old I was in this picture, or the occasion that led to this getup, but I can't be selfish and not share. https://www.instagram.com/p/Brjk4gAFyxB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=154i86okxvsfc

When your dad goes on a trip out west and brings you rocks and books. My face when he dumped them onto the table was 😃😃😃😃😃 because he LABELED them! #rocknerd #givemeallthesamples https://www.instagram.com/p/BoxYRtMAGsS/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1v81gphvqja4d

When the countertops at Zia's are as beautiful as the food. Looks like a porphyritic "granite" (obviously not actual granite due to its dark nature). Lots of k-spar phenocrysts full of exsolution lamellae. #geology #countertopporn (at Zia's "On The Hill")

It's #internationalcatday so here's my two furballs. One who purrs a lot and forgets to put her tongue back, and one who is a spoiled floof.

Alphonse Elric could continue to be an optimistic cinnamon roll because his big brother spent most of their childhood shielding him from the reality that they had been failed by every adult in their lives. Edward grew up feeling like he couldn’t count on anyone. Al knew he could always count on Ed.

Black Widow and Nakia are especially excellent. And Thor. I mean, so many hammers.

This is the most accurate AU concept I’ve ever seen.

there’s something endlessly hilarious to me about the phrase “hotly debated” in an academic context. like i just picture a bunch of nerds at podiums & one’s like “of course there was a paleolithic bear cult in Northern Eurasia” and another one just looks him in the eye and says “i’l kill you in real life, kevin”

I’m fairly certain I recall a professor mentioning that the theory of plate tectonics was “hotly debated” to the point of fisticuffs at at least one national meeting. Because, you know, geologists really like beer and arguing about rocks.

Dunno what it was about Monday, but at work a lady came up to me and was grumpy because they didn’t split her ticket. While the server may have not asked if they two ladies wanted separate checks, the woman was 100% capable of saying so. Instead she came up to my register and complained, saying, “What did she think we were, a couple of queers?”

It took everything in me to keep a smile on my face and apologize, fix the issue, and wish her a wonderful evening, but fuck her for using a word I use as my own identifier and turning it into a slur.

Also had multiple middle-aged white guys complain that we don’t offer a military discount even though we’ve got all this military stuff on the floor. I’m supposed to say that we provide great food at great value but usually I end up saying “I’m sorry sir, but that’s something corporate decides. You can take the issue up with them if you prefer.”

tl;dr I hate old white people and they’re the ones I have to deal with all the time

I have this planner with these absolutely ridiculous pages with like “motivational” quotes on them that are just these bullshit things like “Let your heart sing” and “Always believe in your dreams”

and like that’s always struck me as such meaningless bullshit, I’ve always hated those. They’ve never had that element that truly motivates me.

So, I took matters into my own hands and I made my own artsy motivational wallpapers. Enjoy.

have i seriously lived long enough to experience the resurgence of demotivational posters’s natural evolution into shitposting motivationals
