do you think insight can be gained about an author from the stories they write?
no. authors are like squids and can only be understood through spirited but ultimately futile combat

when you talk shit about drug addicts who aren’t “functioning members of society” you are talking shit about disabled people. this is not up for debate.
happy disability pride month to addicts
A witch puts a spell on a girl, a sleeping spell that promises the girl shall wake through true love’s kiss. Men come and kiss her. She slumbers. Women come and press their lips to hers, but still she sleeps. Many years past, and the girl remains still. One bright morning, a lost little boy finds her resting spot and clears the dust and grime from her face. He offers her a kiss on her forehead, and her eyes flutter open. She never feels romantic love for a man nor a woman, and she cares for the boy until the day she dies.
A young woman is imprisoned in a castle by a monstrously formed prince. The servants of the castle hope for them to fall in love, and when the spell is broken they assume their prayers have been answered. They are all surprised, but nonetheless pleased, when it is revealed to them that the young woman and prince are the truest of friends, and nothing more.
They say the kingdom is ruled by an evil queen, a woman who is incapable of loving. She is unmarried, she has no consorts, and she wishes for no partner. She is the wretched queen, the heartless queen. She must hate her daughter, for her daughter is beautiful, and women are incapable of liking another woman who’s prettier than themselves. It must be for this reason that the princess was sent away, not for how she was attacked by a man in the woods. They say the kingdom is ruled by an evil queen because she cannot love. The queen loves her daughter, and that is enough for them both.
There lives a prince who is forced to choose a bride at the ball. He meets many beautiful women, but find none which he loves. He spies one in a gorgeous gown and wonder in her eyes, and he dances with her all night long. The kingdom is sure he has found his bride. When the clock strikes midnight he tells her how he will never love a woman, or a man, in the way he is expected to. The beautiful woman smiles and tells him she expects nothing from him. The next morning the prince and the beautiful woman are missing, having run off together to see the world. They leave their shoes behind in their haste.
Many kinds of love exist. It doesn’t all have to be romantic.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
have you guys heard about the greenland shark. some crazy shit happening there.
they are sexually mature at ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY YEARS OLD.
their (live!) young gestate for. wait for it. eight to eighteen (??) YEARS. can have up to 10 at a time. good grief.
longest lifespan of any vertebrate, up to five hundred years
toxic flesh
has giant eyes but is usually blind because of a weird little crustacean that's evolved to live on and eat their eyes. this doesn't seem to bother them much.
lives in deep cold water and has the lowest swim speed and tail-beat frequency for its size across all fish species. just generally lives life in extreme slow motion
largest genome of any shark
eats everything including moose and polar bears
ma'am you are delightfully strange and I'm privileged to share a planet with you
this post prompted me to refresh my memory on Greenland Shark Facts and this detail about how they feed goes so hard
just vacuuming up their unsuspecting prey. whole !
Good news good news good news! Recent research suggests the eye parasites do NOT blind them!
Dorota Skowronska-Krawczyk sits in her office, eyes fixed on the computer monitor in front of her. "You see it move its eye," says the UC Ir
I <3 you a normal amount Greenland sharks
Why don’t we let the guy whose every plan could be reasonably construed as an abstract suicide attempt take a crack at it
Are these anything
you guys realize ‘reblog bait’ is a trigger tag for psychosis that can be set off by posts that say things like ‘reblog this or your dog dies’ ‘reblog this or you’ll never be happy again’ ‘reblog this to win a million dollars’ and not for posts like ‘hey rb this and put in the tags x thing’ right
okay since some people in the notes are confused, and to be fair I didn’t word this post very well, here’s some examples on how to tag things
reblog bait: reblog this and you’ll have good luck for 10 years
reblog game: reblog and put your favorite color in the tags
reblog bait: if you don’t reblog this, we can’t be mutuals
reblog game: reblog to give your mutuals a stuffed animal
reblog bait: you’re a terrible person if you don’t share this, I don’t care about your blogs aesthetic
reblog game: reblog and tell me if you’re right or left handed
basically, just think. is the post giving a threat, ultimatum or guilt trip? if so, it goes under reblog bait! a post saying to reblog but doesn’t have anything like the above would go under reblog game. hope this clears stuff up
also people with ocd! and probably a lot more tbh. it just hurts neurodivergent people for no reason
i think something a lot of people don't get is that years of mocking your child, even in jest, does in fact tend to get under their skin
a decade or two of even light verbal harassment is very much accentuated when it's an authority figure you are in every meaningful way subservient to
I love loopdile because it implies the only thing stopping Odile from pursuing Siffrin was either respect for isabeau or that they needed three more years of trauma to fit her tastes
Braved the Southern humidity and heat at 7am to bring you images of my brown arm in different types of sunlight and greenery. No reason, of course.
Also I present: my arm at green tint and -41 saturation. Versus. My arm outside in a shaded area in ambient lighting where the sun hasn't fully risen. Again, no real reason.
Prev I know they're good references lol, that was also part of the point was so people can see how brown skin ACTUALLY functions in the light. Melanin loves light!! My arm is literally GLOWING. So shying away from colorful lighting with brown skin... unfathomable decision.
I also have a severely underrated lesson for this too:

happy almost pride month to my disabled friends
got bored. one billion textposts and they’re all the director
reblog if you think sign language should be taught as a language in schools.
