“Respect for elders” is such a Mickey Mouse social technology. Hasn’t put up any hits in literal centuries. WE ARE DONE WITH THE BRONZE AGE BRO

Signing into tumblr only to find I've received yet more anon hate for kinning Simpsons characters

I’ve been on a bit of a Crossed kick and I was just about to post something about how some of the plot points are really sexist but like. I’m sure you don’t need me to tell you that. I’m not blowing anybody's mind by saying that Rape Zombies Take Over The World: The Comic is problematic when viewed through a feminist lens

A girl doing the Charleston could probably be really sexy with the right attitude/context

This doesn’t matter at all but I actually disagree with the post going around that says “groundedness” in the context of a fictional work means that something is internally consistent. Groundedness is when it’s, you know, grounded in reality. This is different from realism, which is when something is trying to totally conform with reality. The adjective you’re looking for to describe internally consistent settings is “internally consistent”!

- Captain Stupendous can fly because he absorbs energy from radiation, which he stores in the mitochondria of his cells. Mitochondria do store energy irl, so this detail could be considered to be grounded in some amount of real science, even if the rest of it is nonsense.

- Captain Stupendous gets his power by absorbing radiation, so if he’s trapped in a lead-lined room his energy will slowly drain. This is internally consistent, because it respects the rules of the universe and it doesn’t contradict anything previously established by the author

- Captain Stupendous cannot fly by absorbing radiation, because no organism in real life has ever displayed that ability. He gets cancer instead. This is realistic.

yesterday my grandma found a penny on the floor and said to my grandpa “there’s that penny again, pa!” and i absolutely lost my mind because i couldn’t shelve the thought of a single panel Far Side comic of two old people on the front porch in the middle of nowhere and a giant penny angrily and inexplicably rolling through the wastes

“there’s that penny again, pa!”

Anime fans are interesting because they’ve always been pretty dorky but around the 2010s they started acting like it was gauche and embarrassing to make fun of them and it just worked somehow

In Korea they have a superstition that sleeping with the fan on overnight will cause something called “slender sickness”

the student said, "i'm reading a zen buddhist cookbook. with no recipes." and the teacher replied, "ah, dogen's instructions for the cook, written in 1237?" "yeah," said the student, "it's saying not to let rats fall into the rice pot"

[wumblr]

letting rats fall into the rice pot violates the buddhist concept of nonviolence, ahimsa. and this is one of the more dauntingly advanced cookbooks i've ever seen

ingredients: 1 grain of dust.

step 1 turn the Wheel of Reality within the grain of dust

Oh I see what you mean!

I felt like I was keeping up here:

A rich buttery soup is not better as such than a broth of wild herbs. In handling and preparing wild herbs, do so as you would the ingredients for a rich feast, wholeheartedly, sincerely, clearly.

But then I realise the very next sentence that I’m not even remotely on their level:

When you serve the monastic assembly, they and you should taste only the flavour of the Ocean of Reality , the Ocean of unobscured Awake Awareness, not whether or not the soup is creamy or made only of wild herbs.

There’s a lot I don’t know about soup.

STOP saying clipping. is overrated. Just admit you hate nerds and you don't think they deserve to have noise music
