T_T I wish bathroom-related disabilities weren’t still today the subject of so much baseless ableism and hatred.. When you learn that kind of shame, it can kill you. People think “it’s too embarrassing to be seen buying an enema, or to go to the ER and need a manual disimpaction. I’ll just wait this one out” and then the bowel perforates and that can kill you in no time at all. And a LOT of it is just because of the meaningless stigma surrounding something as universal and basic as.. peeing and pooping?? That’s insane! Most everyone does it! Get over yourself and stop perpetuating shame!! Knowing someone has to wear a diaper will not kill you, but the embarrassment that person feels might just kill them!!

Starting to understand that some people really genuinely can't "just eat" the same way I can't "just sleep". Yeah you need the stars and planets to be aligned just the right way and be in the right mood and have the right music on and have the room in the right temperature and the air moisture must be just right so you can chew and swallow one (1) single green bean, just the same as I need to lay in bed for two hours playing magic the gathering before my eyes force themselves shut. There are things people recommend that would be better to do if they worked, but they don't so I can't just fucking do that instead. Can't just go horizontal and wait 30 seconds like my boyfriend does.

I just wrote 8 pages when I haven't written in months and was beginning to think I'd never be able to again. Idk what it is, but I am sharing and manifesting this energy for every writer who sees this. May you write 8 quality pages effortlessly and find joy writing once more

Yesterday, I was at dinner with some friends and briefly forgot Harrison Ford’s name, but I was like, “His name is a president and a car,” which is how we got such acceptable alternatives as McKinley Camry, Van Buren Gremlin, Clinton Infinity, and Range Rover Cleveland.

just because you don’t look like somebody who you think is attractive doesn’t mean you aren’t attractive. flowers are pretty but so are christmas lights and they look nothing alike

Something that helps me sometimes is this: most guys I find insanely hot are gross to my friends. So if I am gross to myself I must be attractive to someone as well.

Opposite curse of Achilles where you can choose to do something grand and dangerous and be forgotten or live a normal unremarkable life and be remembered forever and that’s what happened to Ea-nāṣir

Going into warhammer lore video rabbit hole, I frankly love how arbitrary and unpredictably silly this stuff gets. The silliness of Warhammer lore isn't an in-your-face thing most of the time, the grimdark veneer hides genuinely profound philosophical questions and discussions, just as often as some absolutely ridiculous tomfuckery. Warhammer Silly is an ambush predator.

The Primarchs and how they were named is a great example. There's one primarch whose whole thing is trying to scrub away the immense guilt of a crime they committed, a sin they try their all to conceal and hide, named after an overwhelmingly Catholic Guilt gay poet from the 19th century. The notable part here being that this particular Primarch was not the only one who was involved in the crime - they all did, to some extent - so in a surprisingly gentle and tender way, the lore defines both the poet and the Primarch named after him to be defined by guilt over something that isn't uniquely their "flaw". I know I'm not wording it quite as well as someone else could put it into words, but this is a surprising level of subtlety to something like Warhammer.

And almost immediately after, the next Primarch is a petty dickhead, named after a historical figure who was also a petty dickhead.

an interesting linguistics find! so I'm reading this text from 1908 and it keeps referencing "hp" in the context of "not being at full hp" "applying your full hp to a task" etc

and I'm like....... okay that is a perfectly normal way to describe energy and reads totally clear to me, but I KNOW you don't mean hit points/health points which is the first place my brain goes, so what are YOU using hp to mean

and it's not explained in-text, which means it was common enough to not warrant explanation to the 1908 audience, so gotta look elsewhere

horsepower. turns out it's horsepower.

and I'm absolutely FASCINATED that a commonly used initialism from 1908 now stands for something different AND YET the contextual meaning is still the same to a 21st-century reader

I could hand this guy my nintendo switch and he'd be like, ah yes I understand, this ''''pokemon'''' loses horsepower throughout the fight

language is amazing
