this website lets you listen to the sounds of all different forests around the worldÂ
Reblogging again cause I tried this site last night and if you need background noise to focus this is perfect for that, I was locked the fuck in on a task. And itâs also just gorgeous to listen to
The thing I keep coming back to, with all the *gestures expansively* is that real life doesn't have peaceful epilogues.
Every single win has to be defended. Forever. I'm sorry. It sucks. The Nazis lost until they stopped losing. The US had abortion rights, and then 50 years later it didn't. Empires fall, and then they invade other countries again. Oppressive regimes are overthrown and replaced with other oppressive regimes. You will never finish the work etc etc etc. Which is why it's so fucking important to be able to acknowledge and celebrate progress, when it happens. The people who came before you didn't put in all that work for nothing, and you aren't, either. You can't save it all for the Ultimate Victory because there is never going to be an Ultimate Victory. There's no such thing as a time when everything is good, and ours shall not be the commune of Heaven.
That's why it's so important to carve out periods of rest while the war is still going, too: the war will always be still going. There will never not be a threat to sort out. There will never not need to be people showing up to look after one another.
So you'd better stop thinking about activism as Crunch Time where if you can just work a little harder until $X point, you can pause and rest. There will always be another $X point. You need to build a way of volunteering and speaking and stepping up that incorporates rest and joy into your life: bread, so you have the strength to continue stepping up, and roses, so you remember why you did it in the first place.
You cannot do it all. You need to cherish your own ability to do the work you can, and you need to rest and take care of yourself--body and mind--if you want to be able to continue doing what you can over the long run.
Found my 53yo very-much-not-online father in the kitchen today meticulously arranging cutlery on the countertop and i was like 'what are you doing' and he looked up at me with the world's most shit-eating grin and said "Your mother told me this is how you rick-roll the Youth" and i looked over and it was fucking. Loss.jpg.
i must stress that he's never seen the original comic. My mother simply showed him the shorthand symbol and he memorized it. As far as he is aware this is just a fucking hieroglyph that deals instant psychic damage to everyone under the age of 30
kinda obsessed with these, clearly beginner, rings on Etsy being marketed as garnet when i'd bet money that they are glass
the metal work is. certainly better than what i've ever made, so i don't want to speak to harshly. but uh. um.
citationless behavior
sorry about my constant depressive episodes. its just that i have issues and also problems
The /gardening subreddit is actually full of hippie anti-plastic anti-lawn freaks (affectionate) and I find it enjoyable and I saw a nine-word horror story I thought tumblr would enjoy

IF YOU NEED TO GET RID OF MINT, USE OTHER PLANTS IN THE MINT FAMILY!!!
Related plants like lavender, sage, and thyme are immune to mintâs phytotoxins and will crowd out the mint. Rosemary is my favorite mint-killer since it grows fast and wide (regular pruning helps it cover more area).
These plants are perennials, but they are likely to die after a season since mint can harbor root rot that will affect other Lamiaceae but not mint (or plants outside the family). Leave the plant waste to provide soil cover, the mint rhizomes may still be dormant (but will die out soon). The spring after your mint-killers die, you should get some colonizing vegetation. Once those plants fully take root, youâre good to plant whatever your heart desires in the soil!
IF YOU NEED TO GET
RID OF MINT, USE OTHER PLANTS
IN THE MINT FAMILY!!!
Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
I once read a bit of ancient Roman folklore that thyme (I think, it might have been rosemary) is so tough and contrarian that if you want it to flourish, instead of talking sweet to it, you hurl curses at it.
knitting tutorial made by a twenty-something knitting influencer: 18 min long, 12 of those minutes being the intro and a sponsor plug, they show the first few steps of the tutorial at the slowest speed known to man, they show the most important steps at a neck-break speed, they stop every five seconds to talk about what they just did, 40,000 comments filled with questions ranging from insightful to âhow do i knitâ, filmed with a camera that costs more than a car, the tutorial is incorrect.
knitting tutorial made by a seventy-something grandmother: two min long, filmed 17 years ago, shows you what you want with the skilled patient hands of a beloved deity, made with the worldâs shittiest camera, the best video on the fucking internet, four comments and 30 views, you lose the video and never find it again.
People in Gaza have been saying this would happen since the very start, as soon as the occupation started corralling everyone into the southern part of the strip they said this would happen. We watched it happen as the âsafeâ zones grew smaller and smaller and every time Rafah was targeted by air strikes even before this. And no one who could actually stop this lifted a finger. Itâs been 129 days.
âWestern audiences, much like their politicians, are not willing to engage adult Palestinians, whose razor-sharp critiques would potentially offend them. Because of this, we burden our children with the responsibility of giving humans eyes for humanity. We send delegations of Palestinian kids to the Hill. We have them memorize PowerPoints about peace and coexistence, tell them to display images of their blood and severed limbs in the hope that this will change the minds of Americans who are heavily propagandized, if not themselves heavy weight propagandists.
[âŠ]
I know I am native to Jerusalem, not because Jabotinsky said so, but because I am. I know that Zionists have colonized Palestine without the need to cite Herzl. I know this because I live it, because the ruins of countless depopulated villages provide the material evidence of calculated ethnic cleansing. When we as Palestinians speak about this ongoing and ignored ethnic cleansing â which is inherent to Zionist ideology, by the way â we are at best passionate and at worst angry and hateful. But in reality, we are just reliable narrators. I say we are reliable narrators not because weâre Palestinians.
[âŠ]
I want to touch one more thing. When I go onstage, I usually joke a lot. I joke on purpose, first of all because I want to believe Iâm funny. But thereâs another reason: Any Palestinians operating in the public eye, especially Palestinians who have suffered Israeli violence, are expected to behave a certain way. You are supposed to be miserable â head bowed, wailing and weak and asking for mercy. Youâre supposed to be polite in your suffering. And I completely refuse this. I refuse these politics to appeal. I donât want to appeal to anyone.
[âŠ]
And I am honestly grateful for my disdain, because it reminds me that I am human. I am grateful for my rage, because it reminds me of my ability to react naturally to injustice. I am grateful for the opportunity to be flippant, to satirize and ridicule my impenetrable, indelible occupier. So, I invite you all to interrogate your biases as you leave this lecture, to interrogate what makes you want to qualify a Palestinianâs humanity. And I invite you, again, to be brave. Thank you so much.â

Itâs Monday.

HAVE Z AND ALPHA NOT BEEN MADE AWARE? HAVE WE FAILED AT CONTINUING TO MEME THE HELL OUT OF IT? ARE WE, IN FACT, THE GRANDMAS BECAUSE WE ARE THE ANCIENT KEEPERS OF THE INCEST COFFEE KNOWLEDGE???

A fandom since 2011 guys
(If anybody is wondering âhow could they write that and not anticipate the reaction?â Itâs because the sister was supposed to be much younger in the original draft. Like. An actual child. But they aged her up and never bothered changing the dialogue, soâŠ)ïżŒ
Itâs honestly not the writing or the age, or even the acting that screams âincest.â
Itâs the directing and camera work. Itâs specifically the long lingering gazes.
The best part of waking up is getting to read this incest oral history.
Iâm begging you to read the oral history of this commercial. It features some banger quotes and also Timothy Simons, aka Jonah from Veep, who worked the camera for the auditions and callbacks.
