I honestly think Gen-Z and younger simply does not understand how recent widespread smartphone adoption is.

I am not that old, and I didn't have a smartphone until probably late high school. For most of my life, many if not most people were not walking around with a magic internet machine in their pocket that they pulled out and used constantly for everything.

I love getting unaccompanied minors (kids flying alone) who so clearly just. Don't want to be here lol. Sometimes I get to know a little of their story, like their parents are divorced, or a family member died and they're heading to the funeral, but usually they just don't want to talk about it and that's fine. But I always treat the flight like it's a challenge to make them smile. I offer them snacks and soda but that's never enough, that's whatever, they could get those from an airport vending machine. Chump change. So then I tell the worst jokes. Just the most embarrassing, kindergarten teacher, annoying dad jokes you can think of. And those always get a groan, or a "Seriously??" And that's my in! Now I can say "Why, what's your idea of a good joke? No, come on hotshot, make your best joke, let's see it." And they hem and they haw but of course they eventually tell me their very best joke because kids are little competitive comedy goldmines. And it's always super funny, so I laugh, and that's where they slip up. Because you know what you almost always do when your joke successfully makes someone laugh? You smile. And I'm like. Gotcha. Rookie move. Now you're going to end up having a good time in spite of yourself. I win.

Did this with an 11yo u.m. today and he said "What did the ghost say to the other ghost?" And I said "What?" "Nothing. Ghosts aren't real."

I'm literally a flight attendant, offering snacks and drinks is my job

it’s a beautiful day to check out a book from the library

[meeliesaysno]

its a beautiful day to return a book to the library unread after it auto renews 3 times

[ksfoxwald]

The library says thank you for boosting our circulation stats and the book will still be here later if you want it another time <3

I told my little nephew that I'd wave at his airplane when it flew over my house today, and he very calmly and politely explained that it wouldn't be possible to see me due to the limitations of human vision. I said he just had to squint real hard, and he took a deep breath and went into the toddler version of "see, what you're not understanding–"

[pangur-and-grim]

[pangur-and-grim]

it is actually haunting me that I forgot to wave. if he looked out the airplane window, he wouldn’t have seen me…..

Mun vanhin ja toinen suosikkipropaganda kaikille (Ukrainan tukemisen lisäks) on että luovuttakaa verta (jos ei joku terveysseikka tai väliaikainen karenssi sitä estä). Varsinkin nyt lenssukautena monen veren määrä on huolestuttavan alhaalla, kävin tänään itte taas kerran ku satuin olemaan terve ja karenssi edellisen käynnin jälkeen oli loppu.

Verta luovuttaa edelleen vaan 3% ihmisistä mikä on aika vähän ja harmillisen monen syy on vaan että ei saa aikaseks. Vaihtoehtoisesti neulapelko, mut moni pelkotyyppi lähtee silti urheasti luovuttamaan (verta) ja voittamaan pelkonsa. Mukaan voi ottaa sen kaverin/siipan/sukulaisen henkiseksi tueksi, eikä sitä neulaa tartte katsoa koko operaation aikana. Ensiluovuttajia kohdellaan erityisen hyvin ja palkkioksi saa kehuja ja sälää ja ennen kaikkea hyvän mielen arvokkaasta työstä. Lisäks saa aina jonkinsortin juomaa ja ruokaa niin paljon ku haluaa ja luvan (lue, pakon) ottaa loppupäivä rennosti.

Mä en oo aina paras kannustaja koska se tuppaa menemään siihen uhkailu/kiristysmoodiin lahjonnan/kannustuksen sijaan, että 'nyt perkele sinne piikitettäväksi tai muuten...!' mutta onneks en oo minä Veripalvelulla töissä. :v Siellä ihmiset osaa asiansa. Eikä ota veriä ellet itse halua. Ne on kilttejä, minä en.

Mutta niinku. Luovuttakaa elämässä joskus luvan kanssa (verta). Se on tärkeää koska se pelastaa henkiä hyvin pienellä vaivalla. Siinä vielä linkki Veripalvelun sivuille jos alkoi kiinnostamaan tai tämä auttoi muistamaan että ainiijoo tätäkin vois harrastaa. 🩸🩸🩸

today i learned that the finnish word for ‘hazardous waste’ is ongelmajäte, which can also translate as ‘problematic garbage’ and my roommate and i immediately agreed this is a word that belongs on tumblr.

[callmebliss]

Your fave is ongelmajäte

[you-had-me-at-e-flat-major]

in german it’s Sondermüll which means special trash and that too belongs on tumblr

[pyrebomb]

One man’s ongelmajäte is another man’s sondermüll.

Remember when joining fandom as a younger person meant lurking for a bit and figuring out the vibe and etiquette instead of coming in on day one and calling people weirdos for liking weirdo shit in the weirdo factory.

The term "book of the dead" doesnt really give you perspective to how big a lot of Egyptian funerary texts are.

Imhoteps book of the Dead is 64 feet long.

[somethingusefulfromflorida]

Okay, but a lot of books would be that long if you laid the pages out

[nsomniacsdream]

the average printed page is 6 inches wide. so if a book is 128 pages, its 64 ft long. I dont think I own a book with fewer than 128 pages.

[cryptotheism]

It's honestly not that impressive at all. Fuck Imhotep and his pathetic short book.
