[cogentranting]

Observed today:

Two little girls playing gently with a daddy long legs.

Girl 1: can it die?

Girl 2, in a calm happy even tone: of course. Like all living things it can and must die.

The Legend of Vox Machina is a deeply philosophical show that asks important questions such as: “what if the Grand Duchess Anastasia Romanov had a gun?”

[sinni-ok-sessi]

I do think the ability to emoji-react is a net win for human communication. not only does it give you an outlet for 'I see and acknowledge this but don't have a verbal response' but it also adds a pleasing alethiometer element to things

my coworker announces that he's off to the dentist. someone reacts with a tooth emoji. is this a statement of dentist solidarity? a wish for my coworker to return with more (or fewer?) teeth than he set out with? simple word association? who can say

#Helios was declawed by his former owners so he doesn't just slap things he dislikes like most cats#he really only feels confident in hissing at them#Especially because a lot of the thing he doesn't like are bugs and those are sharp sometimes :(#Selene has figured this out and now when she hears him hiss she sprints over the kill the fuck out of the bug#Helios has learned she will do this so he'll hiss at stuff louder and louder until she hears him#A nervous old man and his emotional support homicidal maniac tags by @gallusrostromegalus

I couldn't reblog without the tags because the context is hilarious

[gallusrostromegalus]

A Nervous Old Man (right) and his Emotional Support Violence Machine (Left)

Yes, he is more than twice her size. Yes, he is five times her age. Yes, he cries like a big baby until she kills Unacceptable Scary Things (earwigs) for him.

"She wants the D," I said. And: "The D stands for dead."

Things that aren't in the bible:

The serpent in the garden being Satan

Cain killing Abel with a stone

Jesus being a carpenter

Pestilence being one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse

Baby Moses being put in the river

Solomon speaking to animals

[charlesoberonn]

To clarify some stuff:

Moses is placed on the bank of the river. It's up to you if that counts as in the river, but the image of his basket being swept down the stream (such as seen in the movie Prince of Egypt) isn't in the bible.

Most translations do call Jesus a carpenter, but the original Greek uses the word 'tekton' which means craftsman. It can mean a carpenter, but I'm personally partial to Jesus being a stone mason.

Some more things that aren't in the bible:

The fruit of the tree of knowledge being an apple

The golden calf being a false god (it's specifically stated to be a representation of the God, using God's name)

The Exodus Pharaoh being called Ramses

Moses being Pharaoh's brother

[penrosesun]

Ooh to add to this:

Original Sin

The Immaculate Conception (note that this is not the same thing as the Virgin Birth, although people often confuse them)

Jonah getting swallowed by a whale (it was a fish, or possibly two fish)

Three wise men (there were three gifts and an unspecified number of wise men)

Anything indicating that Satan rules hell, that hell has multiple layers, or that there are specific punishments for specific sins

Any mention of leprosy aka Hansen's disease (the condition the Septuagint translates as λεπρός has completely different symptoms from the condition that came to be known as leprosy in English)

Isaac being a child during his near-sacrifice

And some Jewish specific ones for the Tanakh, because we can’t let Christians have all the fun:

Yitro converting to Judaism

Avraham smashing his father’s idols

Moshe having a stutter due to burning his mouth on hot coals

Miriam’s Well

Any mention of the lulav and etrog being shaken on Sukkot (Vayikra says to collect the Four Species, but nowhere in the written Tanakh are we actually told what to do with them)

Literally anything about Hanukkah (Sefer HaMakabim is not canonical)

[ladycrimsonandblack]

primus tachonis, after performing a massacre, a ritual, constructing a long-range magical network and killing two members of his own family: you created a celestial??

[tlirsgender]

I've been working on this theory that manic pixie dream girls are real it's just that they're all femme lesbians because men can't handle them. They can't match her freak. They're on reddit asking for relationship advice on how to dull her sparkle. My girlfriend (nonbinary) (starbucks barista) (trying to unionize the starbucks) gets customers flirting with her like they think they stand a fucking chance

[tlirsgender]

A weird girl with bright colored hair CAN save you but only if you're pure of heart it's like being able to see unicorns. I had a butch dyke britney moment and cut my hair off the other day & I'm gonna give her a lock of my hair as a gift to put in a locket or something like the victorians used to & the men aren't doing this

[tlirsgender]

If you want a weird girl who's cooler than you try making her earrings out of your teeth or something

[contemptible-scoundrel]

fuuuck I could use a mysterious benefactor right now

[modernmusess]

the difference in hunger games narrators is so funny to me like this is our starting lineup

katniss: i go to a place and do a thing using a skill. also everyone hates me. oh you want to know more about myself? here are four straight paragraphs just describing food instead.

haymitch: so the baker’s in love with my best friends girl and my girlfriend’s uncle is gay and secretly dating the town window-fixer and she’s actually related to lucy gray and has beef with the mayors daughter who bullied me and her social security number is—

snow: everyone here is UGLY and OBNOXIOUS and TACKY and I Am God.

[modernmusess]

haymitch in cf when katniss pulls up her list of allies and it’s just every person he’s ever known

The truly impressive thing about House Tachonis is somehow they're always more fucked up than you think. I'll be like, oh, abusive father, creepy necromancers, sadism, vivisection, I gotchya, I know the tropes. And then its like, oh no, daddy only hates *some* of his kids cause he's not a monster. The creepy twins aren't just cruel and codependent, they're explicitly turned on by sibling-on-sibling violence and plain old Alabama-style sibling-on-sibling. They don't simply construct undead hulk abominations from their enemies, they also leave said abominations lying around their house for people to accidentally stumble upon. Not only will they kill misbehaving family members, they have a hole in the family crypt specifically dedicated to storing the resultant corpse bits. The underworld is attached to the basement of their *checks notes* summer home, with doors in the crypts and ALSO THE FUCKING KITCHEN?!? WHAT IN CASE THEY NEED A QUICK BITE WHILE SUMMONING THEIR UNDEAD HORDES? EXCEPT WE LEARN THEY SUMMON THEIR HORDES IN A RANDOM FUCKING ROOM TWO DOORS DOWN FROM THE GUEST BATHROOM APPARENTLY. SO WHY ARE YOU DOING IT LIKE THIS PRIMUS? WHY?!

They're also broke as fuck.
