This is the story of a girl.

Hello, I'm Sara and I'm a thirty five year old biromantic asexual woman (she/her). Welcome to my world of whimsy and nonsense. I mostly re-blog other peoples cool things, but occasionally post things myself as well. Enjoy yourself :)

Thinking about Black Sails episode 4.06 how Eleanor asks Madi, “One can be happy that way, can’t they? A life of isolation and uncertainty as long as it is lived with someone you love and who loves you back. It is possible, isn’t it?”

The fact that she says this in Miranda’s house; where Miranda was isolated, living with uncertainty, had someone she loved and who loved her back and it was STILL not enough for her to be happy (understandably so). I feel unwell. UNWELL. Every time you rewatch this show it reveals new ways to break your heart.

the way flint and silver can’t even fucking hug each other. silver dies and comes back and they just walk side by side very close without touching. madi dies and flint just puts his hand on silver’s shoulder and its the most insane moment because they don’t TOUCH otherwise. you’re in each others’ heads but you won’t touch? like even VANE hugs jack and if vane saw a gay man irl he’d floor it. if touch not suddenly significant why don’t you touch each other. why do you avoid it in a way that seems that deliberate you freaks

[kabaks]

THEY ARE ORBITING…they are constantly orbiting in s4 but never touching it is. normal. its normal. especially thinking about it from flint’s perspective if he Knows He Feels Something which is more likely bc he’s less crazy it’s like okay so you are deliberately doing that. pride and prejudice ass i hate it here

Black Sails (2014-2017)

[a-really-bad-decision]

Dragon age origins is like…. You’re nineteen, new in town, and it’s your second day at pizza hut. You don’t even know how to work the register yet and you just watched your manager get carted off by the paramedics. You have no contact info for him, his next of kin, or corporate. The only other employee is the guy who’s been here for two weeks and is a bit of a doofus, and neither of you really know what you’re supposed to do now. You both desperately need this job though, and the doofus at least has a drivers license and *kiiinda* knows how to use the oven so you just. Shrug, and start taking orders and making pizzas and praying to god that the bills are on autopay.

And weirdly enough you’re really good at this: making pizzas and dealing with shitty customers and breaking up fights in the parking lot and pretending to be Duncan’s cousin on the phone so the utility company doesn’t cut off the power. But running a store is a lot of work for two dumb kids, so slowly you start accumulating a bunch of competent weirdos to help out, like the nun who left her convent because god told her to help you make pizzas, and the elderly school teacher who just survived a mass shooting, and the guy the papa johns down the street hired to run you over. And really there’s no way any of this should be working as well as it is - you’re absolutely committing fraud of some kind here - but you’ve managed to dodge the landlord every time he’s stopped by, and the health inspector never shows up to tell you to stop letting your dog hang out behind the counter and you’re all still kinda looking at each other and asking ‘are we allowed to just do this?’ before shrugging again and continuing to make pizzas, until somehow, through a series of unlikely technicalities, your doofus coworker ends up on the ballot for governor.

And after like five months of this the regional manager wanders in out of nowhere and you’re sure he’s about to chew your ass out for this mess, but it turns out he’s pretty chill and honestly kind of impressed with how you managed to keep the place up and running all on your own. So now you’re all thinking ‘thank god, there’s someone here who actually knows how to run a Pizza Hut’ only for him to get hit by a car two days later on the night of the Super Bowl.

If they had done things differently they could have been happy, but to do things differently would require them to be someone else.

There’s actually a lot of history regarding the development writing systems and why there are different visual representations of numerals, but the short answer is: it’s regional, and you probably picked up how to make your numbers look based on your parents or your primary school teachers

[ruusverd]

I do it out of spite because in grade school a kids detective story identified the culprit by saying NO American wrote their sevens with a line and I thought that was super flimsy evidence and it made me so mad I started putting a line through my sevens so the fictional detective would be wrong and then kept doing it for several decades since.

[mikkeneko]

I do feel one can’t underestimate the “elementary school child taught themselves how to do this Out Of Spite” crowd

[loquaciousquark]

I had to learn to do it in adulthood because in my profession (optometrist), handwriting out a glasses prescription for -1.25 DS is very different than -7.75 DS, and ones, twos, and sevens can all look very similar if you’re writing too fast.

[eponymous-rose]

I started doing it as a kid in elementary school because I won a certificate for neat printing and wanted to take it to the next level with numbers that were as clear and distinguishable as possible.

The one I took on as an adult is writing my ‘z’s with a horizontal line through the middle, which came about after one too many late nights staring despairingly at equations where I couldn’t tell the 'z’s from the '2’s.

Don’t get me started on my 'rho’s versus 'p’s or my 'pi’s versus 'n’s. I had to come up with a whole handwriting font I adhered to religiously in order to interpret my notes. It’s come in handy now as a prof, at least!
