the framing device of taming of the shrew is so apeshit. shakespeare really opened his most misogynistic play by saying “by the way this is actually just being put on to help gaslight a drunk guy into thinking he’s a lord” and then just fully didn’t address it again

one of the best ways i’ve found to combat that inherent depressive pessimism without veering into toxic positivity territory is simply the phrase “i’m open to the possibility”
this particularly works with anything negative i’ve forecasted. “i woke up feeling like shit today, so my day is gonna suck” isn’t a particularly helpful thought, but “it’s a great day to be alive!!!!!” feels hollow and insincere when i have a pounding headache & am running on three hours of sleep
instead i’ll tell myself, “i really don’t feel good right now, but i’m open to the possibility that coffee and breakfast might perk me up a bit.” or “i’m in a lot of pain today, but i’m open to the possibility that my workday might still have fun parts despite that”
sometimes, when your impulse is to slam the door on anything good, but you’re not exactly up to going out & hunting it down yourself, leaving the door open just a crack makes all the difference

"The writer Umberto Eco belongs to that small class of scholars who are encyclopedic, insightful, and nondull. He is the owner of a large personal library (containing thirty thousand books), and separates visitors into two categories: those who react with “Wow! Signore professore dottore Eco, what a library you have! How many of these books have you read?” and the others — a very small minority — who get the point that a private library is not an ego-boosting appendage but a research tool. Read books are far less valuable than unread ones. The library should contain as much of what you do not know as your financial means, mortgage rates, and the currently tight real-estate market allows you to put there. You will accumulate more knowledge and more books as you grow older, and the growing number of unread books on the shelves will look at you menacingly. Indeed, the more you know, the larger the rows of unread books. Let us call this collection of unread books an antilibrary."

reading poetry forces you to ask wrenching, necessary, impossible questions, like "is the author stupid? or am I?"

something very important to me is the way everyone lancelot meets is obsessed with him while he is just like. always off putting and incredibly strange. vocally obsessed with the queen and tells everyone he fights about her. goes mad every couple of months when she’s mean to him. always weeping. shockingly violent. grew up in a lake for some reason. fatigued by and uninterested in everyone who isn’t guinevere. and yet everyone is like lancelot i would do anything and kill anyone to be with you im just fascinated by this man’s allure
Sitting at dublin airport just thinking about how excited I am to go have little evening chats with my boyfriend again and cuddle my cat Marquis and have tea from my favourite mug and feel at home again ☕️📚🐈⬛🤎
One thing which genuinely bothers me is Annabeth's perception in the fandom. How she's seen as this cold, stoic, emotionless, reserved and intimidating girl. When in reality, she's a character full of love.
Annabeth, who immediately cried and felt attached to Cerberus after playing with him for a few minutes because she wouldn't get to play with him again.
Annabeth, whose deepest desire, which the Sirens lured her with, is saving Luke and having a good relationship with both her parents.
Annabeth, who believed in Luke's goodness, even after all the countless terrible things he did simply because she had faith in his humanity.
Annabeth, who cried in Percy's arms before entering the labyrinth and refused to reveal the last line of the prophecy because it said to lose a love worse than death and the idea of losing any of her friends is too painful, heartbreaking and worse than dying.
Annabeth, who kissed Percy before parting with him in St. Helens because if he's going to die, she at least wants him to die knowing she loved him.
Annabeth, who took a poisoned knife for Percy during the war because she'd rather die herself than let him die.
Annabeth, who convinced Luke to switch sides by reminding him of the promise of family he gave her. Which in turn, influenced Luke's decision to end himself to destroy Kronos. Hello, she saved the world with the power of love.
Annabeth, who spent months after months losing sleep and searching desperately for Percy when he went missing.
Annabeth, who kissed Percy to eternity in public at their reunion, not caring what anyone is going to say or think. An asteroid could've hit the earth, and she wouldn't have cared.
Annabeth, who told Percy “I love you” when falling in Tartarus because if she was going to die, she wanted them to be her last words.
Annabeth Chase is a sweetheart, who has always felt things deeply and she's so full of love. And I think it's time we let go of the “cold-hearted annabeth” headcanon because it's not true, that's not her.

Everyone is nostalgic and no one is sincere. Do you get the idea
Reboots made by people that don’t respect what they’re rebooting. Punching down before buzz feed listicles punch first. Isn’t it weird that the princess married the prince after just meeting him? Isn’t it cringe that magic exists? Irony poisoning of childhood classics. Well that just happened humour. Say something true and beautiful or I will start throwing rocks
More than 60% of the global population that are classified as the Phase 5 famine/catastrophe level of food insecurity and starvation are in the Gaza Strip right now, and that percentage is projected to increase to 95% by Februrary

Anera
PCRF
Taawon/Bank of Palestine
World Food Programme

Can you guys stop saying Biden and the democratic party enthusiastically supporting genocide against Palestinians is only a moral flaw that makes him an imperfect candidate please
Like feel free to support your genocider but can you stop making excuses for him that imply my people are only just a small stain in his moral ideology. He willingly killed them. Gaza is in rubble. Families decimated. Children without parents. Millions starving. Please don't excuse that.
"It'll be worse under trump" but it's bad now. Can you acknowledge that.
Oh my gosh
This is pure evil. They say 12 employees participated in Oct 7th so they have to stop feeding the entire population????
The United States is extremely troubled by the allegations that twelve UNRWA employees may have been involved in the October 7 Hamas terrori
Here's how you can donate to UNRWA:
