With all the dick swagger you roll, you can't spot crazy pussy?

[idontwikeit]

No, no, no… you've got it all wrong… you can't act death. The fact of it is nothing to do with seeing it happen - it's not gasps and blood and falling about - that isn't what makes it death. It's just a man failing to reappear, that's all - now you see him, now you don't that's the only thing that's real: here one minute and gone the next and never coming back - an exit, unobtrusive and unannounced, a disappearance gathering weight as it goes on, until, finally, it is heavy with death.

I want mental health to be so normalised that little children can tell their parents if they’re feeling mentally ill just like they would if they had a stomach ache or a fever.

I want mental health to be so normalised that school lets you go home after a panic attack episode like they do if you sustain an injury.

I want mental health to be so normalised that when someone’s in recovery the people around them ask for progress reports and send get well soon cards just like they would for any other sort of recovery.

I want mental health to be normalised because every mental health disorder is just as frightening, just as damaging as a life threatening injury and we pass people by every day who are so unwell in this sense but who don’t receive a fraction of the care they deserve just because mental health is unseen.

Historical reproductions should be more widely available. I want an ancient Roman shrimp ring more than anything.

[byjove]

I DON’T want the real thing. I want an affordable reproduction I can wear places and make people ask “what’s up with the shrimp ring?” and I get to explain that nobody really knows. It was just a fun fad 1900 years ago.

This is called Trophic Cascade in ecology.

[mierac]

This was controversial when they released the wolves, as I recall. There were complaints about the wolves being dangerous to tourists, that they would actually damage the park and kill so much wildlife no one would want to go anymore.

Somehow he just managed to light up a room with a smile. He laughed at all of my terrible jokes. He never wrote me any letters. Only the most delightful poetry.

Top Ten Leverage Episodes (according to IMDB)

[nightwashh]

okay okay blue knows the end of her plot and she knows it’s a tragedy but she doesn’t know she’s in a story or her role in it. she’s trying to piece it together.

meanwhile, gansey is trying to build a legend for himself where everything is remembered perfectly and mythologically so when he reaches the ending he knows will happen (he dies) he will be a king too.

on the other hand, adam is acutely aware he is in a story and he is acutely aware that he is a side character/rags to riches trope and he uses that to his advantage to change his position and his narrative and his ending. he does not know how his story ends but he decides he gets to rewrite it

ronan doesn’t know he’s in a story because he is actively writing the story. time bends around him and he unknowingly creates beginnings and endings. none of the rules of story crafting apply to him bc he is outside of it

[senior-management]

young me especially would have hated hearing this but networking is literally the most important thing you can do to improve your situation like forget economic barriers to education etc just keep making friends with different people and eventually someone will offer you a hand up just because they dig your vibe and that is exactly all that's happening when undeserving people surpass you anyway

When I look at how I survived my 20s, it was always helpful friends putting work my way. And often the helpful friends were people I had only known for weeks.

Okay, here's my idea:

The British should put a time limit on the Monarchy.

Not like declaring a republic tomorrow, but deciding on a date in the future that ends the British Monarchy.

And there's a perfect date for it coming up!

October 14th, 2066.

A thousand years since the Battle of Hastings. A thousand years of this one specific bloodline ruling England.

Call time on the Monarchy after exactly one thousand years. Nice, and neat.

Even better: Charles isn't living 44 years. He'll be gone in about twenty. Now William? He's what, 40? Yeah, he can live another 44 years. His great grandmother was over a hundred, his granny was 96, William can make it to 84 barring accident or assassination.

So on October 14th 2066, William the Last steps down a thousand years after William the First won the crown.

Nice, neat, and fair. William gets the crown he's been waiting forty years for already, but ten-year-old George grows up without expectation of it.

Have a nice big abdication ceremony, even.

[lasrina]

Plus, what an absolute baller move to announce your regnal name as William the Last.

This is actually a really good idea, I think.
