Mr. Gaiman, do you have any advice to spare for a 21 year old who is absolutely terrified of screwing up her twenties so irreversibly that she won't amount to much of anything? I keep reading that your twenties are "the formative period," and that so much of our lives end up defined by the choices we made in that span, and I feel like I'm already royally fucking it up.

That’s why the twenties are formative. You do things, fuck up, deal with the consequences. That’s what forms you. It’s also how you learn and how you grow and how you change. You aren’t meant to go through your twenties (or indeed through any of your life) with it all figured out. Get out there, do stuff, choose the wrong things, fuck up, fix what you can, don’t hurt people if you can avoid it, be kind, and fuck up better and more interestingly next time.

Pencil and charcoal sketches on paper for my patrons over on patreon.  I’ve got 2 spots left for originals sent out every month.  http://patreon.com/fallenlights Tripod also came in, so I’m going to be figuring out time lapses.  First up will be a drawing of a tree stump - it’s a gnarly thing I keep taking pictures of when I go out on walks, figured it was time to draw it.

Handmade Ignitus the dragon plushie. 

I spent hundreds of hours making this guy, I hope you like him. He’s 18″ tall to his head, and each wing is 30″ from shoulder to tip. Ignitus is made from airbrushed minky fabric with a wire armature to hold his shape. 

Please share with any fans of Ignitus or the Spyro series

Heart attacks symptoms are different for women. I recently learned this. 

[veggiebaker]

Everyone should know these things.

[131-di]

thanks to mainstream media and being unable to show breasts on TV, way too few people know about female signs of cardiac distress, and impending heart attacks. they only know about the “pain in the left arm” male symptom.

[mossflayer]

i had all these symptoms once and they sent me right to hospital

it was scary bc i didnt know these were the symptoms for female heart issues

[chevko]

Please, please, PLEASE, reblog this. i don’t know if I did save or called false alarm, with my boss’ life tonight. I felt I was being a bit paranoid, overreacting, but I told Mirage my thoughts and he, after reading over the article I showed him, immediately sprung into action and then shooed her off to the hospital. I don’t know if I did or not, but I knew she’d been super stressed. She’d off-handedly commented on her arm tingling and I asked her if she felt queasy on a hunch. I went to look at the symptoms and we went from there.

[francsforthememories]

Holy shit, I didn’t even think the symptoms would be different between men and women. This is so hugely important and I don’t understand why we aren’t taught this. 

[moonblossom]

One of the other symptoms that doesn’t get talked about , especially in women, is a “feeling of impending doom”. I am not even kidding, that is a legitimate diagnostic criteria. Please - if you are feeling any of these symptoms and a sudden onset of “Holy shit the world is ending” do not let anyone tell you it’s “just nerves” or “just heartburn” or something.

[lierdumoa]

The heart does in fact contain ~40,000 neurons that function much like the neurons found in the brain [source], so hypothetically the heart has enough neurological awareness to experience fear, hence “feeling of impending doom.”

[greencarnations]

Well, I have anxiety, so “feeling of impending doom” is kind of my baseline

[fuckyeahfightlock]

So important to understand that heart attacks in women feel and look very different than heart attacks in men!

“chuffed doesnt mean what you think it means”

it means exactly what i think it means its just some stupid word that literally has two definitions that mean the opposite thing

[mysterysnake-deactivated2013122]

what the hell

[ashwilliamsrighthand]

This makes me really chuffed

[pameladoove-deactivated20180821]

These are called contronyms! A word that is its own opposite.

[rubes-dragon-deactivated2024030]

Why the fuck do these exist

[operativesurprise]

One theory is that the sarcastic use of the word became exceedingly prevalent and because another dictionary definition. 

[sufferingsappho-deactivated2017]

Are you telling me that we were such sarcastic shits it literally changed our language.

[nigenaide]

speaking as a linguist: yes. that is exactly what happened. isn’t it beautiful.

[chaosmus3]

@scrunchylady It’s so profound.

@museygirl Dad and I are both ROFL'ing.

‘Grimalkin’ is an old word for a domestic cat, especially an elderly female one. It was used often during the 15th-18th centuries, when women tried as witches were accused of having cats as their familiars. Even Shakespeare used it in Macbeth, when one of the three witches refers to her familiar, who takes the form of a cat, as ‘Graymalkin’. Source Source 2 Source 3
