people who live in areas where there are native lizards should never take that for granted. you can just go outside and see a little guy hanging out. what’s better than that?

The RNA vaccines approved for COVID-19 in the US both need to be distributed at extremely low temperatures. Like 40F lower than any other mass-distributed medicine.

It turns out the Dippin Dots company runs the only nationwide supply chain that’s ever operated at those temperatures. So all these big serious health orgs are consulting the expertise of, and even exploring renting equipment from, The Ice Cream of the Future™️.

thinking about how orpheus turning to look back at eurydice isn’t a sign of mortal frailness but a sign of love

[meduseld]

“Eurydice, dying now a second time, uttered no complaint against her husband. What was there to complain of, but that she had been loved?” ― Ovid, Metamorphoses

[dean-winchesters-clit]

This is true no matter the version you're reading.

1. Eurydice trips and Orpheus turns to help her because he loves her.

2. Orpheus cannot hear Eurydice behind him, and fearing that he's been tricked, turns to make sure she's there.

3. Orpheus makes it out of the Underworld, and so full of love and excitement to be with Eurydice, turns to embrace her, forgetting that they both need to be out of the Underworld.

No matter what happens in the story, Orpheus loses Eurydice because his love for her compels him to look.

sometimes girls just need to swim completely naked under a full moon and experience aquatic ecosystems. dont ask me how i know this

I was thinking about names again today and remembered how when I was a kid my mums showed me the piece of paper on which they wrote baby name ideas before I was born, and I discovered that if I had been a boy they would have named me Corentin. A pretty average name in France, but they added “we would have nicknamed you Tintin!” which made me feel like I’d dodged a bullet. Their top girl name was Éléonore but they changed it at the last minute. They said “we hesitated, because we liked the nickname Léo for a girl” and I was so mad at them for changing their minds. I felt like I would have been so cool and popular as a Léo, like it would have changed my entire personality. For weeks afterwards, when I felt shy or awkward I wondered What would Léo do? and tried to act more confidently. Or I’d think, no way a girl named Léo would have acted so dumb. I grew to hate Léo. It was hard living in her perfect shadow and the solution child-me came up with to feel better about myself was to add my Discarded Boy Name-persona on my other shoulder. It worked. For a while I went through life caring a lot less if I messed up because what would Tintin do? something much stupider, no doubt

this is exactly the sort of information we the public needed to know 🥺

[impishglee]

Were you “not like other girls?” or were you feeling alienated from your friends and peer group as they started to experience growing up in a way you no longer felt a part of? Were you a smug internalized misogynist who thought you were too good for boy bands and twilight or did your friends newfound obsession w boys leave you feeling alienated because try as you might, you didn’t really Get It? Were you immature/a late bloomer/naive or did you not have a space where you knew it was okay to naturally explore how you truly felt?
