End of an era❤️
"Why do you buy books when the library is right there?"
Because publishing houses will not continue printing paper books if libraries are their only customers.
Also, I like being able to read at my leisure and generally have books at hand.
#public libraries are good because they let people access books they might never otherwise read#private book ownership is good because it's Yours#physical books are good because they last a long time and again it's Yours#ebooks are good because you can fit a whole library into the physical space of a single book and they're cheaper to produce#audiobooks are good because they're accessible to people with eyesight or visual reading issues and leave your hands free#in conclusion: all books are good and people should enjoy them however and whenever they can#(lest it be misunderstood I agree with you completely OP I just also really like books in general and it got away from me)
YES. all books. every kind
Ok so this post is extremely long and I put it all together for my blogs Feeling sad page but as I don’t have a huge amount of followers I realize so many people are not seeing this information so I’m posting it here too!
alternatives without harming yourself:
holding/squeezing ice.
splashing your face with water.
getting a rubber band and snapping it against your skin (this could hurt, though it’s better than other ways that people usually choose to self-harm).
take a hot shower or bath.
eat something sour. it will take your mind of the urge. (lemon, sour lollies)
massage where you want to self-harm.
get a red pen or red paint and draw/paint over where you usually self-harm.
remind yourself as to why you shouldn’t do it. (scars, harms organs, leave memories etc…)
describe what you are feeling. (is the urge/pain in your chest, fists, legs, arms, head).
killing yourself will not help. it is not a solution.
you have your whole life ahead of you. you have so many more years that you can accomplish things in. for example;
having a family.
getting married.
to watch the sun rise.
to watch the sun set.
to save someone else’s life.
finish school.
get your dream job.
to laugh.
to smile.
to go camping.
travel to new places.
to wake up every morning to the person you love.
friends.
family.
to keep that promise you made.
to accomplish a goal.
to meet your idol.
to listen to new music.
theme parks.
video games.
chocolate.
to be able to look back and say “i made it”.
what you’re going through is temporary.
in case you need to hear this:
you are loved.
you are wanted.
you are needed.
you are beautiful.
you are handsome.
you are important.
you are not alone.
you are okay.
you are strong.
you are worth it.
you are smart.
you are not a failure.
you are useful.
you are going to be okay.

World’s eeny teeniest fandom… I present three man eating cats of DEATH BY DYING
I think it goes unsaid that a lot of folk magic is extremely regional to small localities. I practice swedish folk magic, but there's a lot of variation within the same country (in people, climate, landscape, traditions, etc.). it's something I think a lot on, when it comes to predicting future weather/seasons depending on the whether on a certain date. would these dates still be magically relevant to divining weather away from the locality that the beliefs originated from? I'm not convinced, and I think it would take years of developing a relationship with the land you're on and becoming intimate with the patterns of the land to be able to recreate this practice elsewhere
I am with you on this. My own familial practice is diasporic with my family no longer residing in Europe. My grandmother taught me weather predictions on a day to day basis and she would always say things like "It used to be that we would look for the willow warbler to predict the rain. But here, you can look for the house finch." It stands to reason that, while it's possible to perform weather divination anywhere by paying attention, it would take a lot of time and journaling and connecting with the land to do so on a predictable and applicable basis with annual divinations just because there is mush less opportunity to interact with and test the annual patterns.
@court-of-blood 's tags
yes everyone plz add the weather divination you grew up with!! I'm so fascinated!!
I live in the pacific northwest, near the coast. When we see seagulls coming inland, we know there's a rainstorm out on the ocean headed our direction.
I didn't grow up with this, but I figured it'd be nice to share this old saying from Finland!
"Kuu kiurusta kesään,
puoli kuuta peipposesta,
västäräkistä vähäsen,
pääskysestä ei päivääkään."
"A moon from the lark to summer,
a half-moon from the finch,
a little from the wren,
not a day from the swallow. "
This is not entirely true anymore because of climate change....
here in old Appalachia we rely on the wooly worms to tell us what the years weather will look like
more black on the caterpillar means bad months and harsh weather, and more brown/orange is clear skies ahead
we’ve been watching the wooly worms as long as they have existed in these mountains
my great grandma swore that if it was raining from a bright sunny sky it was going to rain at the same time the next day.
My grandma taught me that if the leaves of the trees are pale side up it means there will be a bad storm
One of my students taught me that "red sky at morning, sailor take warning; red sky at night, sailor's delight" is broadly true here in the Mid-Atlantic South ... but the more qualitatively spectacular the sunset on the coast, the worse the hurricane will be.
Kids with water guns, watch them run 💔
would zuko give the blue spirit a full pardon after the war is over or do you think he would mess with everyone and raise the bounty even higher
Sokka and Toph would both work to convince him to raise the bounty, while Aang and Katara would try to convince him to pardon the Blue Spirit.
Zuko would agree with Toph and Sokka. It would be hilarious to raise the bounty. Only he one ups them by declaring the Blue Spirit the Fire Nation’s Most Wanted Criminal.
zuko: capturing the blue spirit is now our top priority
his advisors: my lord, why???
zuko: i saw him eat the last of my fire flakes. i need justice
everybody’s favourite 2011 bop, What Makes You Concussed
When you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell you don't know oh oh you don't know ✨You're concussed ✨
😂😂😂
You were to me like rain to a dry land,
Shower of happiness in my life,
Flowers bloomed in my wounds,
Scars became vines,
Butterflies fluttered,
Scent of sorrow washed away,
My dead world became alive,
But rains brought with it storms,
Thunder and lighting,
Loss and pain,
But through it all love remained,
Cause home is home,
Even with broken roof and chipped walls,
A shelter through it all.

Saw a video somewhere and made a one direction version of it, credits to the owner for the idea. The poem is written by me though😅.
I will love you forever, for eternity. Always, always ... 🥺🤍
