In German we don’t say “killing time”, we say “Zeit totschlagen ” which literally means “beating the time up to death” and I think that’s beautiful

[whattheforkingfork]

I didn’t tell you the whole truth: The verb “totschlagen” belongs to the noun “Totschlag”. “Totschlag” and “Mord” (murder) are two types of crime where someone committed homicide. “Mord” on the one hand was a mostly planned or at least intendet murder yand is more severe than “Totschlag” - killing someone in the heat of the moment, out of a sudden urge or emotion.

“umgangssprachlich; Der Begriff ”Zeitvertreib" ist erst eine Erfindung des 18. Jahrhunderts, aber den Reichen und Adligen war Sport, Spiel und Unterhaltung auch vorher natürlich nicht unbekannt. Das redensartliche Bild meint, dass man die "Person Zeit“ vertreiben oder gar töten kann, damit sie einen nicht länger durch ihre Anwesenheit belästigt.”

“colloquial; The term "Zeitvertreib” has only been invented in the 18th century, although prior, sports, games and entertainment (as a pastime) weren’t unfamiliar to the rich and nobles. The idiomatic picture indicates that one dispels or even ‘murders’ (see above explanation) the personified “time” so it would no longer disturb oneself through its presence.“

Fun fact: There are a lot of rivers in the UK named “avon” because the Romans arrived and asked the Celts what the rivers were called. The Celts answered “avon.” 

“Avon” is just the Celtic word for river.

Fan Fact #2: When Spanish conquistadors landed in the Yucatán peninsula, they asked the natives what their land was called and they responded “Yucatán”. In 2015, it was discovered that in those mesoamerican languages, “Yucatán” meant “I don’t understand what you are saying”

1.

Take a shower, wash off the day. Drink a glass of water. Make the room dark. Lie down and close your eyes.

Notice the silence. Notice your heart. Still beating. Still fighting. You made it, after all. You made it, another day. And you can make it one more.

You’re doing just fine.
