i gotta remember this

[freezerfridays]

the fact that i can now listen to the wbn soundtrack makes me so unreasonably happy for one single reason and it is The March of the Witches of the Coven of Elders

[lilac-city]

I need everyone to know that even when I am not listening to this song I have been a LITTLE BIT listening to this song in my head also since the first time I heard it at the end of the episode it appears in.

Even if I am not listening to anything at all my head is a little bit in the background going "bing booboop beepboop bing booboop beepboop AHHHHHahAHaaaahhhh AAAAAAhahAAAA"

If you've seen me in person recently this has been playing in my head.

And I think that's beautiful.

Listen to Worlds Beyond Number and buy the soundtrack.

one of the "these can and should coexist" things to me is "there are numerous fat people who eat healthy and exercise and could beat the average skinny person in a hike" and "fat people who are fat and arent athletic and dont eat super healthy and do get winded walking up hills also are apart of fat liberation and deserve love too"

both of these are true and both deserve love and to be able to be accepted and get proper healthcare

Y’know an awful lot of Terry Pratchett’s books are concerned with how powerful women are when they get angry and how important anger is as a driving force to defend what is right and to tackle injustice. 

A lot of his most interesting and most deeply moral characters are angry ones. Granny Weatherwax, Sam Vimes, Tiffany Aching. All are to a large extent driven to do good by anger.

And that honestly means a lot to me.

[thebibliosphere]

Terry was an angry man. This is not the same as saying he was a bad man. He held a righteous fury, the kind that comes from looking at the world, and knowing just how much better it could be if only we stopped being bastards. He held a genuine belief that people can and do change the world for the better, not by big things, but by the little. He believed in the kindness of others, and that kindness means more than wishing well and prayers. He knew the difference between being good and doing good, and that you technically couldn’t be the first without the latter.

He was angry at the world because he loved it, and he wanted us to feel the same, to not feel helpless, to know that something can be done, to know that anger is not just the tool of abusers and tyrants but the chisel by which The People might chip away at oppression and fear and bring it crumbling down. He gave us the drive needed to believe in hope. because he wanted to make the world better with words and not violence.

I hope he knows that he did.

“The occupants of these graves had died for something. In the sunset glow, in the rising of the moon, in the taste of the cigar, in the warmth that comes from sheer exhaustion, Vimes saw it. History finds a way.”

Today is May 25th, also known as the Glorious 25th of May, also known as the day Discworld fans wear sprigs of lilac in remembrance of Terry Pratchett.

I worked all day today. I was tired. I did not wear lilac because most of the ones near me are dead. I still thought about him all day. Night Watch was the first Discworld novel I read when I was 17 and in many ways and in many following books Pratchett taught me how to be a person. I miss Terry’s incisive, hilarious, but overall KIND voice every single day in our current world. I think he would write some ferociously angry books if he was still around. But he already did, too. In many ways I already know what he’d say because he already said it. Be kind, be brave, be funny. Be honest, be human, be ugly. Work together. Seek justice for the most vulnerable. Do good even when no one says thank you. Be whatever you are as hard as you can be. Be silly as often as possible. I’m trying. Happy Glorious 25th of May.

I did not work today. But I am still thinking about him.
