There are many benefits to being a marine biologist

Hey. Why isn’t the moon landing a national holiday in the US. Isn’t that fucked up? Does anyone else think that’s absurd?

alagaisia

It was a huge milestone of scientific and technological advancement. (Plus, at the time, politically significant). Humanity went to space! We set foot on a celestial body that was not earth for the first time in human history! That’s a big deal! I’ve never thought about it before but now that I have, it’s ridiculous to me that that’s not part of our everyday lives and the public consciousness anymore. Why don’t we have a public holiday and a family barbecue about it. Why have I never seen the original broadcast of the moon landing? It should be all over the news every year!

It’s July 20th. That’s the day of the moon landing. Next year is going to be the 54th anniversary. I’m ordering astronaut shaped cookie cutters on Etsy and I’m going to have a goddamn potluck. You’re all invited.

A spoon's only objective in life is to make soup go upwards, and it knows this. That's why when you put one under a running tap it blasts the water way high. The spoon thinks there's suddenly TONS of soup to deal with and it freaks out.

I love the phrase "they get along like a house on fire". It's perfect. You and me have perfect chemistry and it's setting off the carbon monoxide detectors. People are calling emergency services to get us to stop being so chummy. Someone died

Slow down, it's ok. Very few things in life are absolute

Deadlines can be flexible, career paths are flexible, relationships become close and far and close again, it's all going to be ok

i am not unforgivable. i am a human being who is allowed to mess up and learn from it.

it’s our first times being alive, we will make mistakes and we will grow from them. no one is perfect.

After all, it's the errors we make in life that teach us the best lessons and, most importantly, make us human, isn't it?

Western culture seems to be moving further and further away from formality. I'm in my 30s now and I don't think I've ever requested that anyone call me "Mrs. Lastname" and rarely am I addressed as such. My children call their teachers at school "Mrs/Mr Lastname" and they use "aunt/uncle/etc" but that's about it. And while I don't really think about it much in everyday life, there is something very interesting about formal modes of address that is lost.

In Jane Austen, we see characters say and even think in formal terms before they establish friendships/relationships, in Mansfield Park Fanny Price for example, staunchly sticks to "Miss Crawford" even when Mary starts to call her "Fanny". Fanny is maintaining distance from someone she doesn't like, even in her head! She also is offended when Henry takes the liberty of calling her "Firstname" before she has accepted his proposal. He says he thinks of her as Fanny, which clearly distresses her. We also know that Edmund considers Henry Crawford a close friend because he calls him "Crawford." (not Mr. Crawford)

Marianne very rapidly drops Willoughby's "Mr." in Sense & Sensibility, and he even calls her Marianne, which leads everyone to suspect they are engaged. Yet though it seems acceptable for the Dashwoods to call Edward by his first name because of their family connection, Elinor only says his first name in her head and to her sister, not to him. She maintains this social distance until they are engaged.

I don't know if I want to advocate for a more formal society because I know I would mess up and offend people. But I love the idea of just saying, "Mr. Lastname" and establishing emotional distance. I love being able to discern the closeness of two people just by how they address each other. And the way it makes a given name all that more precious, something you give not just something you use.

Hey, you are not an embarrassment for not knowing how to do certain household chores/basic self-care. They do not come naturally to us. A lot of it takes practice! Maybe you had a neglectful guardian. Maybe you had one that was very coddling and never thought to teach you. Maybe you haven't lived in a place where these things were available to you or needed. Doesn't matter. It's okay to not know and far more common than you might realise.

That said, this website provides very simple instructions on how to do everyday tasks such as making your bed, using a washing machine, cooking different foods, washing dishes, taking a shower, etc. All you have to do is use the search bar to find the task you're struggling with, and it'll come up with what you need + other related how-to's:)

If you're having trouble navigating it, let me provide you with some examples:

How to clean dishes by hand

How to make your bed (with visual demonstrations of each step!)

How to fold clothes (with visual demonstrations of each step!)

How to take a shower & dry yourself off (also provides ways to shave beards, armpits, legs and genitals)

How to shave legs, armpits, beards, pubic areas, etc. (a more in-depth guide)

How to mop the floor

How to sweep the floor

How to swallow pills

How to make small talk

How to make eye contact in different situations (or how to avoid it while still looking natural)

It's also perfectly okay if these don't help or aren't appealing to you. Unfortunately, nothing helps everyone.

Also if the reason you don't know is developmental , intelectual or learning disabilities making you struggle even if you've been taught a bunch of times , you are so cool and awesome too :^) [smiley face ]

doing your best doesn’t mean you have to work until exhaustion. doing your best doesn’t mean you have to give it 100% all of the time. doing your best can be working until you’ve hit your limit and then respecting your limit.

heavy on respecting your limit 💞

A Very Abridged Ranking Of All The Wuthering Heights Characters

Hareton Earnshaw - I love him, your honour. He has done nothing wrong ever in his life.

Isabella Linton - she can’t help it that she’s such a girlboss.

Frances Earnshaw - she lived, she gave us Hareton, then she died. I respect that.

Ellen Dean - she’s a gossip queen, a true northern gal (affectionate).

Cathy Linton - she’s very average, but she’s Hareton’s cousin-wife so I’ve got to tolerate her.

Hindley Earnshaw - he’s veeery problematic but also oddly endearing.

Edgar Linton - he’s fine, just very boring. Just a poor victim of several shenanigans.

Lockwood (does he have a first name? Robert???) - I didn’t like how he was creeping on Cathy a bit.

Catherine Earnshaw - I could support her delusions if she didn’t step on everyone else to achieve her twisted objectives (her and Heathcliff are perfect for each other though).

Joseph - I don’t feel like I have to explain this.

Heathcliff Heathcliff (don’t @ me, that’s his name) - I think he’s such a complex character, I loved reading him, don’t get me wrong. However, he is EVIL. I respect that he had an awful childhood but that doesn’t excuse what he does to everyone else (especially Hareton, Isabella and Cathy). Him and Catherine are soulmates though.

Linton Heathcliff - I am aware he is literally a child and I shouldn’t put him below Heathcliff. But I hate him. I was jumping for joy when he died. Horrible boy. Isabella, honey, how could you raise someone that rude and petulant (probably because she was rude and petulant but we’ll ignore that)???

Let me know your favourites and least favourites, if you’d like :)
