i love how this website decided the ides of march is a week long thing this year
The idea of stabbing the absolute FUCK out of some rich powerful asshole who has been making life suck for the masses DOES have a certain extra appeal this time around, yes.
why does this have 32k notes? itâs just a picture of a knife in a ranch bottle, is there some unspoken joke that 32 thousand people share? what is going on here, i dont get it. itâs just a fucking picture of a knife in a ranch bottle. is there some spiritual connection people have to this picture? is there some ominous and mystical reasoning that this has 32 thousand notes? do people reblog this because it makes them look like some indie blogger? or is there just something funny to this? someone please explain
no one tell him
This is it, lads. The post that started us on this path 9 years ago.
I sure hope no one told him.
Saw the Ides of March trending and was like "oh no, did I miss it?!" Nope! It's not for another WEEK tumblr is just already preparing and getting ready. Love this for us.
itâs really important that we all prepare well in advance or else julius caesar might not get stabbed this year
IT IS A CRIME THAT HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE NEGLECTS MENTIONS OF HIS OBSESSIVE BEAUTY ROUTINE FROM THE BOOK
THAT TWINK SPENDS HOURS IN THE BATHROOM FOR THAT LOOK AND THE MOVIE IGNORES THAT EFFORT.
pair of selkie sisters one is an ethereal quiet aesthetical creature who stares out the windows when it rains and is married to a byronic male lead the other sister is a feral gremlin who makes seal noises at her husband to get his attention and is married a scrappy lil marine biologist who absolutely is down to go crab digging in the sand despite the fact that they're in their church clothes.
btw they have a totally normal third sister who just likes to take day trips to the beach every so often. shes married to a quiet sailor they have 2.5 kids and never once has she even considered acting like her sisters. she has literally no clue whats going on with them.
gosh. byronic hero is quiet and uptight and ~ mysterious ~ and everyone is CERTAIN that he stole her coat but in reality she saw this hoity toity pale black haired blue eyed lit major and quietly left her coat on the bench he was sitting on. he brought it back to her three times before he Realized and then he brought it home with him and she was like 'oh no....mother i have been stolen.............i must go live in a gothic castle now..................how tragic..........' they then courted for three years before getting married.
meanwhile the feral one just climbed into the biologist's boat like 'hey do you want to - stop screaming, its just me - do you want to get married' and he was like YEA OK BUT WHAT THE HECK-. they were married in a month. the only reason it wasn't a week was because no one could get ready in time.
once again normal sister did NONE of this she just went to college and let herself be dated and married.
The duchy was founded - unofficially - when some enterprising little thief had read through the royal lawbooks, looking for loopholes like a worm trying to wriggle its way through a brick, and had discovered that while the king's men could follow a man across mountains, forests, and plains, they were not granted the same jurisdiction over bodies of water.
This had started the popular idea amongst the kingdom's criminal underbelly that if a thief took a boat and paddled out into the middle of a pond, the king's men technically couldn't do anything about it.
Of course, the realist interjected, it'd never work; if you tried it, then you'd be one thief in the middle of a pond, with all those guards waiting on the shore for you to either wash up with the flotsam or die of starvation.
Still, the idea was alluring. It hung around the popular consciousness as a thought, an untested hypothesis, an interesting fact.
It would've remained so if it wasn't for Edmund Snood, an enterprising young thief who hadn't quite enterprised an escape plan, and with the guard closing behind him had grabbed a rowboat and cast himself out into the largest of the kingdom's lakes so fast that he had skipped like a thrown stone.
And as Edmund fended off the banks and the horrible, grinning, patient faces of the guards waiting for him there, word had spread across the kingdom. Soon enough, thieves and thugs were all paddling up to the little rowboat with a sandwich and a few words of encouragement, attaboy, Eddie, show them who's boss, eh? We're all rooting for you back home!
And after four days, the duchy was founded - unofficially - when Jack "Jackal" Jaseroque had lashed his rowboat to Edmund's and took over the duty of paddling while Edmund took the first sleep he had in half a week.
After that, another boat lashed together with the two. Then another. Then four more. A lean-to shelter was built, torn down, and rebuilt bigger. Walkways were tied together. And then in a wave of tidal force, the thieves and thugs, bandits and brigands, vandals and vagabonds of the kingdom all sailed out to the little assemblage. Leather bladders were inflated to help with bouyancy. Ramshackle halls were raised. A strict rotation of paddling duty was arranged to fend off the banks.
And the tune of the realist had changed - they can't be watching all the shores, right? So if we just spend a couple days here, keep an eye out, and head out again once we've spotted a gap, then who cares about a little bit of paddling in the meantime, right?
The duchy was founded - officially - when Edmund Snood took on the role of dukedom to universal acclaim. This was also when the name of the little commune had been agreed on, as the makeshift structure bobbed gently on the water's surface.
It was called the Robber Duchy.
bro, the me inside your head is kind to you, right? haha? đ€š
bro, you wouldn't use my memory to represent your own self-doubt and loathing... right bro?
âYou havenât killed your wife,â he said. âAnywhere. There is nowhere, however huge the multiverse is, where Sam Vimes as he is now has murdered Lady Sybil. But the theory is quite clear. It says that if anything can happen without breaking any physical laws, it must happen. But it hasnât. And yet the âmultiverseâ theory works. Without it, no one would ever be able to make a decision at all.â
âSo?â
âSo what people do matters!â said Sweeper. People invent other laws. What they do is important!⊠It means the multiverse isnât infinite, and peopleâs choices are far more vital than they think. They can, by what they do, change the universe.â
- Night Watch, Terry Pratchett
The correct order for reading Discworld is read the first one you touch and work from there
HOLY SHIT, IT WAS THE ORIGINAL ONE
MAKE A WISH
the first post ever on tumblr
I WAS EXPECTING IT TO BE A REMAKE OF SOME SORT HOLY FUCK
this is my favorite post ever.
The 10 year anniversary.
wait what??
well I guess happy anniversary to color of the sky!! it is truly a cursed masterpiece
Girls will be like Idk why im so unproductive recently and then you ask whats going on in their life and they list eight lifestopping crisies and then say 'yeah but i should be fine :/ '
How does anyone hate kids they are so funny I sold tickets to incredibles to this little girl and her mom and sheâs like mom are we sitting next to each other and the moms like ya and the kid screamed YES so loud it broke my ears
The other day I was bringing an older gentleman up the hill in a golf cart and we drove past this huge YMCA group of kids like 100 kids and driving past the first chunk like 10 of them yelled out âlet me onâ in unison and then since Iâm driving so slowly to be safe, halfway in some kid leaned up and said âdo you play fortniteâ and I told him I played a little and he just pointed and shouted âTHIS GUY PLAYS FORTNITEâ and then like 20 kids started talking to me all at once about fortnite
A kid asked me if I lived in the ambulance. I said yes.
The hero we deserve
When I was on register at Kohlâs a little girl came through with her grandma and she was so very excited to tell me the meaning of her name (I think it was like warrior of god) and she begged her grandma for her phone so she could google to find out what my name means too
i wear two spinner rings on one finger and one time at my last job a young girl (probably 6-8) said âyour ring is very prettyâ and when i showed her it was two rings she GASPED and said âdoes that mean youâre marrying two people?!â
I have this necklace with a mermaid on it that I wear to work a lot and I got asked by a kid if it gave me magic powers. I leaned in real close and told her in a low voice it gave me magical girl powers but it was a secret. She got this real serious look on her face and said to her mom âthat lady has superpowers, donât tell anyone or the government will take her awayâ.
The other day i had to give a speech at my school despite my horrific fear of public speaking and afterwards i had kid come up to me and say well done to me. It was so cute.
god I love tiny kids
there was a kid in one of our science camps and he spent the whole week in a lab coat and goggles screaming âCHEMICALSâ at the top of his lungs. he wouldnât even tell us his name for the first two days just screamed CHEMICALS instead.
I was watching these kids at church today and one of them screamed and threw a toy car into the wall and it broke and the other one looked over calmly and said âdoes your insurance cover that?â
I was taking the drink order for a family at work and I asked their kid what he wanted to drink and he just looked at me with a completely deadpan expression and said âvodkaâ and me and the parents just fucking lost it
kid I used to babysit asked why my lips were different (she was two), and when I told her that it was because I was wearing lipstick, she yelled, âMAYA, I WANT LIPITZ.â
I work in a school and every time I draw anything on the board (I am a terrible artist and usually resort to stick men), the kids will all go âI love your picture, thatâs a great drawing Missâ. So blindly supportive.
One time my younger brother ordered a ânon-alcoholic fantaâ at a hotel bar and the bartender lost his shit and I was never the same man
When I was student teaching, I was taking my fourth graders back from lunch and noticed one little girl looking longingly at the playground, where the younger kids were having recess. She heaved a big sigh and said, âI used to be that free.â
oh my god little kids in the library are the BEST one time i was looking for a book and a little girl tried to help me cause we always help HER find the books she wants. sometimes when iâm helping them check out theyâll tell me about the books theyâre getting. i know so much about dog man.
oh man! another hilarious thing kids in the library do! they will straight up TELL ON THEIR PARENTS!
mom: the book was like that when we checked it out
child, innocently confused: i thought (little brother) did that though?
dad: yes thatâs our correct address and phone number
child, barely paying attention: we MOOOOVED!! :D
parent: we never checked that book out
child, trying to be helpful: yes we did, thatâs the one we lost at grandmaâs house, remember?
me, fighting laughter and trying to decide whether or not the enter the childâs testimony as official evidence or not
I know Iâve told this story on Tumblr before, but one of my favorite retail experiences was when I was stocking shelves once and dropped a couple of small plastic toys, and a little girl ZOOMED up, grabbed them, held them up to me, and when I thanked her, said âIâm closer to the floor, so itâs TEAMWORK! :Dâ and zoomed off back to her mom
I was telling a kindergarten class (4/5 year olds) that weâre hosting a book fair next week and they would need to ask their parents for money. One girl very excitedly told me she has âone moneyâ in her piggy bank. Her classmate, vibrating with excitement, said, âI have TOO MUCH money! I have ten dollars!â
a little boy, maybe around 7, looked at our piano at the museum and asked me very politely, âwhy doesnât it have all 88 keys?â
I googled it for him after the tour, because even I didnât know how many keys a piano was meant to have, or why this one had fewer (earlier pianos were just Like That, seems to be the answer)
we love baby nerds in this house
a marathon route ran past my apartment this morning and from my window I heard a small child yell at the top of her lungs, utterly bewildered, âWHERE ARE THEY ALL GOING???â
was discussing the Discworld main characters poll I reblogged with Bow and accidentally came up with Discworld Main Characters By Whether or Not They Want to be Doing This Adventure Thing They Are Doing
Vimes: doesn't really want to be doing this but also has a job to do and is invested in doing that job and this is part of it
Granny Weatherwax: wants to be doing this, is competent to do this, but isn't enjoying herself
Nanny Ogg: may or may not want to be doing this, but is enjoying herself anyway, because she is capable of wringing enjoyment out of anything, with her coconut-cracking thighs if necessary
Magrat: wants to be doing this in theory because it aligns with the kind of person she wants to be, but is Struggling and Having A Bad Time
Death: neither wants nor does not want to be doing this; develops big feelings about it anyway
Susan: doesn't want to be doing this, BECAUSE she has a job to do and it is NOT THIS!!
Moist von Lipwig: suffused with regret over impulsively putting himself in the position of having to do this, but also can't stop continuing to impulsively put himself in more and more situations
Rincewind: does not want to be doing this. chewtoy of the gods. please
Tiffany Aching: Decided On Purpose to do this
Really genuinely feel like we need to bring back internet safety classes.
like this isnât about âno one on the internet is your friendâ itâs about âeveryone on the internet can be entirely anonymous and disappear at a momentâs notice and you need to be aware of that and be sure of peopleâs intentionsâ itâs about âthat person might be really nice and giving or they might be scamming you and you need to be able to tell the differenceâ itâs about âyou need to be sure that the link youâre clicking on is going to take you to the right placeâ
itâs basic stuff iâm not trying to scare people but you need! to practice healthy skepticism online!!
when I was a kid it was âeveryone on the internet is an axe murdererâ which was not helpful but âeveryone on the internet can be trusted with your full name, city, workplace, health conditions, traumas, and any triggers you may haveâ is also not helpful
letâs get somewhere in the middle with âif you wouldnât walk up to a stranger at the grocery store and tell them this, donât share it with the entire internet eitherâ
