Not really a fan of Bridgerton, but I am a fan of Nicola Coughlan's response to everyone shitting on her for being "too big" to play a love interest

If you think people used to willingly stare off into the distance before smartphones, my dad told me he had this psychology assignment when he was in college in the 80s which was basically

Go to a restaraunt by yourself and eat a meal without a newspaper or journal or anything else to keep you occupied and then write a report about it

Which tells me that this was a way for a professor to inflict psychological torture on their students and that people used to bring little things with them to keep them entertained. Shown by those old pictures of everyone in a trolley reading a newspaper with one hand.

Frankly I think that the human brain has been craving smart phone forever. Perhaps we use it too much at times but if this was 1985 we also wouldn’t be talking to people. We’d just be looking at newspaper or drawing stuff on notepad instead. And the old people would all be shaking their fists about how kids spend too much time looking at that damn TV because yes this discourse has been going on long before smart phone

That is such an inspirational quote for such a dumbass thing to do

[what-even-is-thiss]

It’s weird how everyone hating you when you’re nine years old still affects your self esteem when you’re 26 like yeah nobody came to my birthday party but that was like 17 years ago why is it stopping me from going to a gay bar

Went to the Aboriginal artifact exhibit in Chicago. And it’s interesting. How many blankets and masks and totem poles say ‘unknown source’, because every five seconds my mom would stop and point to something and say. “Pauline’s grandmother made that,” or, “That belongs to Mike’s family, I should call him” because. It’s all stolen

[teaboot]

“These artifacts were excavated by archaeologists from a burial site in the 1970’s. The remains were returned for reinterment” Okay cool, cool cool. So you just, like. Dug up the grave of a respected family member, stripped them naked, mailed their body back to their family and kept everything they were lovingly put to rest in. Like a graverobbing bastard

[toothmuncher3000]

Reminds me of the time when of the elders from my hometown started touching a totem pole in the Museum of Anthropology out at UBC and got yelled at by the staff, only to tell him that the pole had been stolen off of the front of her bighouse when she was ten years old.

Museum collectors did the equivalent of kidnapping a family member when they were away fishing.

The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act requires all institutions that receive federal funding to repatriate remains and artifacts so if you can identify the source of something on display absolutely get a hold of that institute’s repatriation office

Imagine being such a pathetic incel loser you are being roasted in multiple languages.

It's really important when you're at work to go out there and really give it your 60%. Maybe 35%.

[jourrdane]

One time my boss told a whole story about how if a person who made parachutes didn't give their job 100%, people would die.

I made the point that

There's probably a whole quality and compliance process for parachute assembly and it's not just one bloke in a factory making and distributing them.

We get a 30 minute lunch break and no company benefits.

We don't make parachutes.

I had a disciplinary meeting and then went back to giving them as much as they gave me.

No one died.

There's something all us old heads tell to new hires: Hard work is rewarded with more work.

Don't kill yourself for a company that'll gladly replace you by week's end

[landunderthewave]

Some of the wisdom shared over in the Ask A Manager comments is that when you start a new job you should give it about 60 %, not more.

You will have good results and get through the trial period, but you won't exhaust yourself and burn out, you won't set up your coworkers to look bad in comparison if they simply can't go as fast as you and, very crucially, when you hit a rough spot in your life you will have automatic leeway built in and not fall behind and have people jump down your throat when you feel like shit.

AND ALL FIVE EXODIA PIECES

[gay-jesus-probably]

I need everyone to know that I looked it up, and Noah Lyles is doing this as part of an ongoing bet he has with shotput competitor Chase Jackson. She's wearing Naruto accessories every day, and if Lyles whips out Yugioh cards at every race, then for the shotput finals Jackson will re-enact the scene of Rock Lee dropping his weights.

This is now the only part of the Olympics that I care about.

edit: this is not the olympics. I'm an idiot. it's the USA qualifiers for the olympics, but our boy Lyles has won every race so he's definitely going to be taking Exodia to the Olympics, and i for one cannot wait
