If you’re reading this… congratulations, you survived Ray Bradbury’s doomsday!

“‘Today is August 4, 2026,’ said a second voice from the kitchen ceiling…”

-Ray Bradbury, “There Will Come Soft Rains”

Today is August 4th, 2026–the day that Ray Bradbury’s short story “There Will Come Soft Rains” is based on. I have included the short story below for anyone desiring to read it. Please feel free to let me know what you think in the comments! Happy doomsday;)

"Today is August 4, 2026," said a second voice from the kitchen ceiling, "in the city of Allendale, California."

"There Will Come Soft Rains" by Ray Bradbury is one of my favourite short stories ever written. Seemed important to commemorate the date.

i think the scientology speedrunners should start visiting the hospital mitch mcconnell is supposed to be in. i think it would be enriching for them

let’s be completely real. lestat was in his feelings and wrote big boss’s lyrics 20 minutes before that concert and was like, hey salamander, I figured out what we can do with your weird song. i wanna diss this guy and he’s gonna be there tonight. it’s the most lestat thing that the show has done so far. he did not think it through.

Imagine if people watched Interview with the Vampire and it inspired them to think about how the past is in a very real way inaccessible to us and memory can be misleading even when you're not being dishonest and different people can have different experiences of the same event that feel emotionally true and are very real to the people who experienced them even if they contradict each other and often you will never be able to know what really happened and how this can make repairing damaged relationships difficult and threatening to a person's sense of self

watching twilight and I keep making myself laugh imagining if it was just alucard or any other vampire instead of Edward. POV nausferatu goes to ur school

the one band member thinking to himself that he's so glad lestat killed one of the tech guys and lestat going "dude I just fired him like a normal person" was an underrated moment tbh
