“He always wanted a daughter.  He tells me that all the time.  My friends think I’m so lucky because a lot of their dads aren’t affectionate.  Some have even been forced to stop studying and get married.  But my father wants me to be successful.  He wants me to live abroad.  More than anything, he’s a friend. There was a time in high school when I was extremely depressed.  Mostly just teenage things.  I felt ugly.  I didn’t have confidence.  But it got so bad that I started having scary thoughts.  And I didn’t want to tell anyone, especially my parents.  I was afraid I’d get locked away in the house.  But one night we were sitting in my bedroom, and I finally let him know.  His reaction wasn’t what I expected.  He didn’t panic or scream.  He was calm.  He just kept holding me and saying: ‘We’ll get through this together.’” (Alexandria, Egypt)

“that’s just the way the world works” it literally doesn’t have to be but okay

[ironinkpen]

if anyone ever tells you “humans are just selfish / life is cruel / that’s just how the world is, get over it” be critical of them bc there’s a 75% chance they’re just using that as an excuse for their own shitty behavior so that they don’t have to put an effort into being better, kinder people

A dating service where matching is based on people’s search history exists. You’re a serial killer. You go on a date with a writer.

[endreams-s]

Serial Killer: metaphorically, if you were to kill someone, how would you do it?

Writer: Air shot between the toes, it’ll look like a heart attack.

Serial Killer who is obviously in love already: *sucks in a breath* ok

[honeypressed]

Writer: how long would it take to die if you were to potentially stab someone in the guts

Serial killer: anywhere from 2 to 30 minutes

Writer, already bringing a ring out: *shaking* thanks

There’s a special place in hell for the people who leave the footnotes at the end of a book.

[linguisten]

That aren’t footnotes then.1

1 but endnotes

[geminusrufus]

Also endnotes are the superior system for citing and commenting, actually fight me. Nerd.

[langsandlit]

Endnotes are invalid.1

1 if you use endnotes don’t interact.

[culmaer]

citations as in-text references¹ and comments as footnotes

____________

1. in the format (Surname, year: page). the full source is indeed listed in the back, but that’s the List of References, not endnotes, which are the worst²

2. it is known

[linguisten]

@culmaer true. 

Furthermore, you’re not being taken serious as a humanities scholar in Germany unless your footnotes occasionally take up two-thirds of the page and sprout meta-footnotes of their own.

Favorite Things:

One of the leaders of the Grand Heathen Army that fucked up the Anglo-Saxon heptarchy was a dude called Ivar the Boneless.  There’s all kinds of theories about why he was called that–he was double-jointed, had erectile dysfunction, had osteoporosis, so on and so forth.  Some have even postulated that he was given the Latin title “Exosus,” and this was misrendered as “ex os,” literally, “Without Bones.”  But of course nobody knows for sure and we probably never will.

The greatest and best explanation, of course, comes from Ragnar Lodbrok’s Saga, where it just straight-up says, “Ragnar’s son Ivar was called ‘the Boneless’ because he had no bones.”
