give me the state if you're comfy and what languages were offered
do you want to be a bookstore owner, cafe owner or a flower shop owner
$50,000 immediately dropped into my bank account wouldn't improve EVERYTHING but boy it sure would be a grand, sexy little start to a good, happy life path, don't you think
Reblog for unexpected $$$ dropping into your Bank account.
If you see this you’re legally obligated to reblog and tag with the book you’re currently reading
utterly losing my mind that literally right as i was putting up our display for banned books week coming up in september, my boss got a call saying that the county higher ups have declared that we’re prohibited from saying “banned books” in association with any library programs or materials. “freedom to read” is okay apparently, but the phase “banned books” is, well, banned. if i tried to publish this scenario in a novel, my editor would probably send it back with a note saying that the irony is a bit too on the nose & that i need to tone it down a little. we have censored the discussion of censorship. i cannot handle how hilarious this is

Something else
a month ago i picked up a book on stage directing in my school’s black box and opened to a random page and it was something about making shakespearean actors rehearse by adding the word fuck to their lines to turn the archaic language into something familiar for the emotional resonance (of course taking it out as rehearsals move along to fix rhythm/etc but just to start off) and the example it gave was the solid flesh speech. like. iirc it was specifically “but two fucking months dead”
and like. im obsessed with this. as a concept. not even for acting i just think it’s so fucking funny. to be or not to be, that’s the fucking question. is this a fucking dagger i see before me. this is the excellent fuckery of the world -
What fucking fire is in mine ears? Here is my fucking butt.
“Press not a falling man too fucking far!” - Lord Chamberlain, Henry VIII, Act 3 scene 2
One of my absolute favourite things in the world is a ‘fuck run’. If the energy is too low, or the intensity is dropping the director might ask you to run a scene, or sometimes even the whole play, and insert ‘fuck’ or any of its derivatives wherever you feel the urge to. I have never experienced anything so quickly and ferociously liven a scene. It’s like a defibrillator.
Once did the last half of Oedipus Rex as a ‘fuck run’ leading to such incredible double entendres as: ‘Oedipus, son, dear child, who motherfucking bore you’.
Other highlights from times I’ve either taken part or seen a fuck run:
“I would eat his heart in the fucking marketplace” ”I have, of late, though wherefore I know the fuck not, lost all my motherfucking mirth.” “Your royal father’s fucking murdered.” “Fuckfuckfuck. O, by fucking who?” ”Gentlemen, remember that I am a fucking ass” ”Why the fuck did you bring these fucking daggers from the place? They must lie fucking there! Fuck! Go fucking carry them, and smear the sleepy grooms with fucking blood” “Screw your courage the FUCKING sticking place and we’ll not fail”

What are your favorite poems from when you were a kid, or that you think 10-11 year olds would enjoy?
I don't have much time outside the regular curriculum to teach poetry, but my rough plan is to try and pull out a poem every now and then, maybe with snacks as well, and have it be more of a fun, low-risk "poetry tasting" at the beginning or end of a lesson.
I'm interested in genuinely good English or Spanish language poetry without much archaic language. Whether it's sad, happy, serious, dark, funny, whatever is fine. Hopefully I can have a nice balance.
Top choices right now:
Invitation by Shel Silverstein
Wild Geese by Mary Oliver
This Bus Stop Was A Coral Reef, Once by Megan Arkenberg
The Orange by Wendy Cope
Poet to a Bigot by Langston Hughes
Cause I Ain't Got a Pencil by Joshua T. Dickerson
Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening by Robert Frost
I am Considering
Two-Headed Calf Poem by Laura Gilpin
The Cremation of Sam McGee by Robert Service (I was obsessed with this one as a kid.)
Obsessed with the fact that this wasn’t a fluke and they are clearly training this cat to dj.
The shear number of ladders that are launched …..
The longer I watched the more it sounded and looked like cartoon sound effects and the harder I laughed. LOL
humans really do just throw things at things
the crutches,,,
That’s one goddamn sturdy bubble wrap bubble.
Can you imagine what a day at work this was?
"Ok folks, everybody stand on this side of the room. Throw anything that you can physically lift and isn't nailed down at the fucking car."
"Everything?"
"Yep, everything."
"Even....the ladders?"
"Absolutely the ladders, let's get creative people."
I need everyone to know that the ship Götheborg, the world's largest ocean-going wooden sailing ship, answered a distress call the other day.
Imagine waiting for the coast guard or whatever to show up and instead a replica of 18th century merchant ship pulls up and tows you to the coast.
pov: you’ve been transported to the 17th century
#in the article it says that the sailboat sailors were concerned because they could not be towed quickly because of the kind of boat#so they asked Götheborg what type of ship they were and warned that they would not be able to go above a certain speed#and götheborg went ' we are also a sailboat. 50 meters length. no worries :) '#and the poor sailboat sailors were just like ' That's not possible. they have to be messing with us' and then the ship Rolled Up (via bunjywunjy)
this is going around twitter rn but im also super curious: please tell me your top four comfort movies that you’re always down to watch bc my friend thinks mine are ridiculous and now we’ve realised everyone’s version of “comfort” is hilariously different
WARNING TO NORTH CAROLINIANS
our chiggers now carry TYPHUS
The symptoms to look out for are fever, rash, headache, body aches, swollen lymph nodes, general GI symptoms and a crusty nasty looking area around the bite. Not all of these symptoms may be present but if you were bitten by a chigger in North Carolina and you don’t feel well, go to the doctor. Antibiotics can clear it right up but if left untreated, the fatality rate can be 40% for some strains.
Here’s a map of the places tested and the places where chiggers were found to be infected:
(Also, because I saw this in the notes, typhoid and typhus are radically different diseases. Typhoid is caused by salmonella and usually transferred through contaminated food and water while typhus is caused by several different bacteria and typically transferred by insect bite.)
Are you fucking kidding me
Warning for non North Carolinians. Stay off North Carolina beaches!
The beaches are the only part of the state that seems safe LMFAO
