I hate the “open floor plan” that everyone is obsessed with in houses now. I want nooks and crannies and bizarre floor plans. I don’t need to be able to see what someone is doing on the other side of the house. I want places to hide and lurk and dwell in the shadows. I am the beast who awaits in the labyrinth

Hey students, here’s a pro tip: do not write an email to your prof while you’re seriously sick.

Signed, a person who somehow came up with “dear hello, I am sick and not sure if I’ll be alive to come tomorrow and I’m sorry, best slutantions, [name]”.

I mean, if someone wrote that to me, I’d probably believe they were sick.

i once emailed my professor with a migraine. a mistake.

“I amsick will not to choir because i have a heache. i Hope its very and i am so sorry

the subject line was “OW”

THE SUBJECT LINE IS THE BEST PART JSJFJSJDJS JUST IMAGINE GETTING AN EMAIL WITH NO CONTEXT OTHER THAN “OW”

As someone who has taught college, please send those emails because 1) We WILL believe that; no one would write that on purpose and 2) we need a laugh sometimes.

On the other side of this, once after getting taken to the ER by ambulance, I got an email from the professor whose class I’d passed out in, and the message had no text, just the subject line “you good?”

Reblogging for the last addition

get okay with being some level of burden on others, seriously

totallyfubar

you know what’s a real burden? a person that is so scared of leaning on other people that they try to be completely self sufficient and you end up either having to help them indirectly to save their ego or they have to break down in order to receive help, both of which are so much more heavy to the person that loves them than just being leaned on casually

miss irina two seconds after hearing renesmee’s heartbeat

hello, blog that I never use anymore. I just need to get something off my chest.

Last March, over a year ago now, I was sexually assaulted. It’s a grey area -- I gave consent to come into my apartment, watch a movie with me, and potentially do sex things. It’s how the sex things were handled that made me feel violated. He kept power-playing and manipulating me into going further than I planned. He kept doing things I was uncomfortable with, and I would stand my ground and he would pretend to listen but ultimately end up doing the same things. Sometimes the anger and shame from that encounter just rises back up in me and I’m mad that I thought anyone could actually care about how a sexual experience may feel on my end.

idk man I’m just mad and sad and sometimes I wanna scream about it!!!!!!!! but other times I’m like “well that’s a lesson learned” but other times I still wanna scream because this is just how guys are taught to fuck and devalue women!!!! It’s unfair that I was already woke to that fact and still got fuckin PLAYED yanno. anyway I’m crying at midnight over my trauma love that for me

You've heard of "humans being severely injured to reveal mechanical insides" now get ready for a far more horrifying alternative: machines and technology being damaged to reveal meaty, bloody insides

Botanical Sexism Cultivates Home-Grown Allergies

Arborists often claim that all-male plants are “litter-free” because they shed no messy seeds, fruits or pods. In the 1949 USDA Yearbook of Agriculture, which focused on trees and forests, this advice was given to readers: “When used for street plantings, only male trees should be selected, to avoid the nuisance from the seed.” In the years following, the USDA produced and released into the market almost 100 new red maple and hybrid-maple-named clones (cultivars), and every single one of them was male.

It took a number of years for these new trees to mature enough to start to bloom, but eventually they did and with them came more city pollen and the “epidemic of allergy and asthma.” Many of these same trees are still alive and well and getting even larger, and the bigger they get, the more pollen they shed.

Allergies are rarely triggered by small amounts of an allergen; they are initiated by an overdose. Small amounts of pollen exposure are actually good for us, but if we have highly allergenic trees or shrubs in our own yards or lining our streets, we will soon enough be over-exposed. In order to put the brakes on America’s allergy epidemic, we need to reverse the trend toward male-dominated landscapes and stop selling and planting any more of the most allergenic trees, shrubs and grasses in our cities.

and the kicker:

Female trees produce no pollen, but they trap and remove large amounts of pollen from the air, and turn it into seed. Female trees (and female shrubs also) are not just passive, but are active allergy-fighting trees. The more female plants in a landscape, the less pollen there will be in the air in the immediate vicinity. By relying less on males and paying more attention to the allergy-potential of all the plants in our urban landscape, all of us may one day breathe easier.
