from the updated intro to fight club by chuck palahniuk:
happy pride
I love getting unaccompanied minors (kids flying alone) who so clearly just. Don't want to be here lol. Sometimes I get to know a little of their story, like their parents are divorced, or a family member died and they're heading to the funeral, but usually they just don't want to talk about it and that's fine. But I always treat the flight like it's a challenge to make them smile. I offer them snacks and soda but that's never enough, that's whatever, they could get those from an airport vending machine. Chump change. So then I tell the worst jokes. Just the most embarrassing, kindergarten teacher, annoying dad jokes you can think of. And those always get a groan, or a "Seriously??" And that's my in! Now I can say "Why, what's your idea of a good joke? No, come on hotshot, make your best joke, let's see it." And they hem and they haw but of course they eventually tell me their very best joke because kids are little competitive comedy goldmines. And it's always super funny, so I laugh, and that's where they slip up. Because you know what you almost always do when your joke successfully makes someone laugh? You smile. And I'm like. Gotcha. Rookie move. Now you're going to end up having a good time in spite of yourself. I win.
Did this with an 11yo u.m. today and he said "What did the ghost say to the other ghost?" And I said "What?" "Nothing. Ghosts aren't real."
I'm literally a flight attendant, offering snacks and drinks is my job
evil beach boys wouldn’t it be knife
evil cyndi lauper girls just want to have gun
this has reduced me to tears
explain to me how they can have a "first gay character in Disney history" every single year

some other first ever gay characters that have been brought to my attention
remember, if you don't get praise the first time, you can keep going and pretend it never happened in the first place 💕

“whatever the fuck these two characters had going on” is a vastly underrated character dynamic
10 years ago today, Ebony Dark’ness Dementia Raven Way went back in time to sedouce Volxemort and protect all of us from his evil plans
reblog this post to honor Enoby’s brave sacrifice, ignore if you’re a prep or a poser
somehow, i kept hearing about this character and not actually hearing that that was the plot.
There was a plot?
bella was lucky she didn’t have a cell phone of any kind because you know ya boi edward would be blowing up that phone 24-7 going “saw a snail today…. effervescent” or some shit equivalent

What if silence is in fact a sound, but because its a universal sound we just adapted to it and dont notice it anymore
I actually just wrote a paper on this!!
The short of it is, yes, that's exactly what happens. There's no such thing as pure silence outside of a vacuum (and inside a vacuum you'd be dead). So basically your ears are constantly adapting to the noise threshold of your surroundings and slowly ignoring it. If you were in a perfectly silent room (anechoic chambers are cool!) you would actually start to hear the sound of existing!
In film class we learned that you need to record the silence in a room for at least two minutes or so and save it before you start shooting there. This is called "roomtone" and is done so you can put it into every bit of artificial silence later- if your editor decides it's best to cut the sound so there will be a longer gap between lines of dialogue, for instance, the artificial silence in between will sound weird to the viewers and break their immersion, because it isn't the silence of that room as they're been hearing it so far.
Room tone is also useful to overlay if you need to re-record any lines later or that kind of stuff, I think, but. I didn't listen THAT much in film class
This is pretty much why active noise cancelling works too!
I recall reading about a performance of some kind whose first "sound" involved a sudden, heavy, oppressive silence, and they arranged that by artificially creating a noisy roomtone---before the performance started, before people were coming into their seats even, the speakers were already outputting a soundscape of white noise, electronic hums, air vent noises, et cetera, so when the audience was all seated and the performance started, the sudden cutoff of all the existing noise made a major contrast that got everyone's attention without so much as a sound.
Conservatives accidentally doing this never gets old
