i know i said i did not want to talk about the nolan odyssey but i do have one more nodyssey post in me. i actually think the idea of odysseus understanding his story as existing both in and out of a historic timeframe is a fun way to handle the liminality caused by the story being part of an extensive oral tradition. however having him say "our age of bronze is collapsing" is perhaps not the way i would have done that

Can someone explain what exactly is the train of thought in people who see a post like "hey if you set your huge fucking dog that runs up to strangers unprompted and also tackles people for fun loose in a public park on purpose, and you just watch that thing endanger everyone without doing anything to stop it, you are an asshole" and decide to dissect it like "hey what if it isn't a huge dog, but just a really really tiny one, who is actually also really skittish of strangers, and I didn't take it off the leash on purpose and it's also not my dog, and actually not a dog at all and was actually just a squirrel? Am I an asshole for seeing a squirrel in the park?" And they're dead fucking serious.

Ad blocking/reporting should have some sort of an "I never want to see this fucking ad again and if you fail me and show it to me again I will track down where you live and fucking kill you" option.

A child's bedroom furnished entirely with those aesthetic beige instagram mom sad beige wooden toys for sad beige organic children, including a little ball pit in all the shades of brown, white, grey, beige and greige, but the owner doesn't have kids. It's all for the cats.

"They can't tell because they're colourblind", the owner explains, "and also very dumb."

homunculus-argument

"After you defeat your enemies, you cannot spare their children or they will come for you once they're grown, and the cycle of revenge never ends." Yeah duh, if you're just gonna leave them there?? No shit they'll hunt you down and avenge their parents.

What you're gonna do is take them in and raise them as your own. Don't lie to them what happened, or try to hide it from them; explain why it happened. Why you really, really had to do that. Because if you can't raise someone to trust you and your judgement after killing their parents in cold blood right in front of them, then maybe you are the villain that they grew up to see you as.

14 Wind Turbines Aligned In A Row In Nevada

I like how “biblically accurate” has come to mean “eschatologically portentous.” like a biblically accurate angel is literally just some guy, but if you call this a biblically accurate wind turbine, everyone on Tumblr knows what you mean.
