ffs another story (from eight (8!) years ago) got flagged on Patreon out of the blue. Either the AI is bored and looking back or someone reported me?

(it was a 'tiger rakshasa' romance, so maybe that's it).

Went to the grocery store with my kindergartener. We weighed some bananas: 2 pounds even. We weighed a watermelon: 4 pounds even. We weighed some mangos: a little over 1 pound. We weighed the watermelon AND the bananas: 6 pounds even.

“That’s funny” said the child “because 2+4=6 and two pounds and four pounds is six pounds. It’s like the same as math!”

“What happens if you add 6+1?”

“SEVEN”

“What if we put one pound of mangos on the scale?” <mangos added>

“IT’S THE SAME!!”

“OK, what’s 7-4?”

“Three?”

“What if we take the four pound watermelon off the scale?” <watermelon removed>

“Mama! Are you telling me math works In Real Life? Think of all the things you could measure!!”

Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.

WAIT REBLOG THIS VERSION INSTEAD

Our girlfriend looks so pretty from outer space

Naoko Takeuchi visiting the Kennedy Space Center in the 1990s and meeting an astronaut! She was visiting the Center to do research for her Sailor Moon side story, "The Lover of Princess Kaguya," which was later turned into the Sailor Moon S Movie.

Decades later, when a plushie of Artemis was spotted in the mission control center during the Artemis II mission, Naoko expressed surprise and delight:

“In the manga, he’s the little cat who sends instructions to the Sailor Guardians from the command room,” she said. “That was just a fantasy that existed only in the story, so to think that 30 years later Artemis would appear in NASA’s mission control, a place I’ve always admired, is incredible. I’m so jealous. Thank you for watching over humanity’s great achievement for ten days. You did a wonderful job.”

“I’m overwhelmed that a classic from 35 years ago is still being talked about around the world,” she said. “I’m so happy. It may have been an immature work, but I’m amazed to realize that classics can become timeless across generations. Manga, anime, live action—it’s such a blessing that this work continues to be shared in so many forms.”

[mysticblondex]

unfortunately I am not attractive enough to identify as a hot mess but I am definitely a room temperature inconvenience

And then I learned it. The horror of the truth. I understood that I was nothing. A wretch. A blot. Not even of the same nature as man. This hurt clung to my mind. It never let go.
