the best way to support libraries is to use libraries. go get a card, check something out. not a big reader? they got movies. they got games. yes, like botw and fallout and let’s go eevee. they also have cds that yes, we workers know you take home and rip to your computer. we also do it.

if you have a well funded library you might even have access to maker spaces that have 3D printers. or video/audio recording equipment. libraries aren’t these tomb silent homes for books any more. they’re community spaces. they’re full of life and things.

put a middle finger up at jeffrey bezos and support your local library

Also groups, clubs, classes, etc. Most libraries have programs for learning how to program, paint, write, forage, sew, knit, garden, etc. Some libraries also have seed libraries (where you can get free seeds for gardening with the expectation that you’ll bring more seeds back when you can) and programs to rent supplies like sewing machines.

I started Hebrew, which is why I’ve been dead on this blog, but I don’t think I can ever properly convey to you guys the sheer cultural whiplash of spending years learning Japanese from Japanese teachers and then trying to learn Hebrew from an Israeli

Japanese: you walk into class already apologizing for being alive Hebrew: you walk into class, the teacher insults you and you are expected to insult her back

Japanese: conjugates every single verb based on degree of intended politeness, nevermind keigo and honorifics Hebrew: Someone asked my teacher how to say “excuse me” and she laughed for several seconds before saying we shouldn’t worry about remembering that since we’ll never need to say it

Japanese: if you get one stroke wrong the entire kanji is incomprehensible Hebrew: cursive? script? fuck it do whatever you want, you don’t even have to write the vowels out unless you feel like it

Japanese: the closest thing there is to ‘bastard’ is an excessively direct ‘you’ pronoun Hebrew: ‘bitch’ translates directly

The span of human experience is so insane.

fictional character discourse would be more fun if we all internalized the fact that characters are narrative tools, not people. once we have that basic fact down, we can start talking about what story the author is trying to tell using these characters, whether they’re successful, whether the story itself is successful and by what means we are measuring success—which are all really fun and interesting things to discuss! but we simply cannot get to that point unless we first accept that fictional characters simply do not have thoughts, feelings, opinions, or any agency on their own. a fictional character has more in common with the fictional chair theyre sitting on than with a real person

if you have never been to america DO NOT COME NOW. joe biden has enacted a mandatory hot dog eating schedule. 2 egg dogs at 6am. 4 plain hot dogs at 12:45pm (NO condiments). 3 chili dogs at 7:30pm. at random times a siren will sound off and we have to eat 5 sloppy joe dogs, which are literally just hot dogs with sloppy joe on them. if we dont eat every bite we are executed on the spot. please send help they are all boiled in the same water

thej0ry

If you live in America- please eat a pb+j after each hotdog to combat against Bidens plan to have everyone die of HotDog Belly

To non-Americans: Every state has its own culture and microcultures within cultures, but the most important thing to understand - and I cannot stress this enough - is that Delaware is not real and we made it up

#none of the us is real everything is made up

once went to a japanese arcade and a man watched me play the taiko (drumming) game, gave me a little applause, and then started his game, pulled out a set of custom drum sticks from a bag that held several different weights and then proceeded to play faster than the speed of light.

sometimes someone isn’t “toxic,” they’re just “abrasive.” or “mutagenic” or “highly flammable,” and you should always check their material safety data sheet to be sure
