Reblogging again
Please reblog!!!
this has helped me a lot ^^ iâm over a year clean from cutting now
just downloaded these
If I didnât reblog this before. Iâm Rebloging this now.
Iâve said it before and Iâll say it again: public libraries are the only place where people are allowed to just exist in public anymore without spending money. Thank goodness they already exist and have for so long because they would be denounced as socialism if we tried to implement them now.
This is UK, but the only parts of this that donât apply to the US are things that ought to.
All of the things on this list are true. Librarians are part bartender, part social worker, and all librarian. We care more about the people reading books than the books themselves. We buy things with our own money, we battle against people who don't understand the value of a library, or think we just sit around all day reading books (pro tip: we absolutely don't), or think that volunteers can replace highly trained professionals (while we love our volunteers, they can't). I have been physically assaulted, sexually harassed, threatened with murder, and I still come to work every day and do my utmost to get people the things they need, be it books, or food or a shower or a place to stay. We see people experiencing homelessness, or struggling with addiction or mental illness, and we do our best for them. We get made fun of, sexualized, yelled at, more often than we get thanks, but still we go on. Because the fire of public service burns deep and bright within us, and we take great pride in putting a book in your hand that you described as "I don't know the title or the author, but it was red" and it be the right one. We wish more people would call us with silly trivia questions, or try a genre you've never tried just for fun. We wish we could tell you that your stories and the books you love and the things you're passionate about stay with us and we secretly order books knowing you will love them. We love what we do, and don't get paid much for it, despite often being required to have a Master's degree. But most importantly, we want you to know that YOU ARE SAFE at my library. Every single one of you. And if you need us, we will be right there, doing our best to help. â¤ď¸đ

That....was not where I went with this. đł
seduce me with ur history knowledgeÂ
vikings made their woman handle the finances because they thought math is witchcraft
During a military campaign, Vlad the Impaler, the basis for Dracula, once pulled his troops out of a major engagement in a valley at dusk so that the sun was in their enemiesâ eyes. Once they were over the hill, they set loose a bunch of rabid bats who flew away from the sun (towards the enemy) and attacked them, leading to significant infection in their ranks, and Vladâs eventual victory. Because of how the bats appeared from where Vladâs soldiers appeared to be at dusk, myth stated that the soldiers turned into bats at night, which is where the âDracula can change into a batâ thing came from.
raphael, the renaissance painter, literally fucked himself to death
during the Ottoman Empire, the Sultan Ibrahim I had 280 of his concubines drowned in the ocean after ONE of them slept with another man.
The earths carbon levels fell by 700 million tons because Genghis Khan killed so many people
King James (the one known for revising the Bible) liked to watch women give birth. Thatâs where the âtraditionâ of women laying on their backs to give birth comes from.
Previous to that it was common for women to have chairs with holes in them and straw underneath, so they could sit on this special chair and let gravity help with the birthing process.
Spicy foods were thought to increase libido and cause children to masturbate. To prevent kids from touching themselves at night, a man named Kellogg invented the blandest combination of cereals, marketed it at kids, and called it Corn Flakes
At the Battle of Gettysburg during the American Civil War, a small group of Union soldiers had run out of ammo against a large group of the Confederate Army. In a panic, the Union soldiers sprinted at them, screaming, with only bayonets drawn. The entire Confederate Army that was present turned and ran away in fear, not knowing that they had literally no ammunition.
When the Roman Emperor Caligula went to invade Britain he stood on the coast of Gaul with his army and suddenly declared war on Neptune, God of the Sea. He had his men collect sea shells from the shore as âspoils from the Oceanâ.
Oh and he appointed his horse to the senate.
During the Austro-Prussian war of 1868, Liechtenstein sent over an army of 80 people, but ended up coming back with 81 people because they befriended a guy on the other side.
People refused to send art and sculptures to be displayed at the Chicago Worldâs Fair because of Chicagoâs history with fire. They had to fireproof the Fine Arts building to get people to agree to loan them their art. A year after the fair closed most of the grounds were destroyed by fire but the Fine Arts building survived. Itâs now the Museum of Science and Industry.
The carbon emissions thing from Ghenghis Khan is not the whole story. He also planted trees wherever he conquered land because he liked trees and thought they were important. He conquered enough to make an impact on the global climate.
Radu III, brother of Vlad III( Vlad the Impaler) Â nearly killed Mehmed II, the future Sultan of the Ottomanâs, after Mehmed invited him up to his chambers. Radu, seemingly unaware that the offer was sexual in nature, was startled when Mehmed embraced and then tried to kiss him. Radu stabbed the prince in the leg, then ran and hid in a tree. They later became lovers, and maintained a relationship for the rest of their lives
Just googled the last one because holy shit thatâs magnificent and seemed to good to be true, but not only did it actually happen, but I also learned that radu was known as âradu the beautifulâ
fun date idea: stab him in the leg
Vlad: If you liked him, why did you stab him, for fuck sake?
Radu: I fucking panicked.
History was wild ďżź folks
Jack Churchill, known as Mad Jack, was a British Officer during WW2. He loved hunting nazis, playing the bagpipes, and archery. He loved them so much that he did them all at the same time.
Churchill killed a nazi with a long bow in battle as well. Maybe his gun jammed, but more likely he did it because when youâre a badass you do badass shit.
He was captured multiple times and tossed in concentration camps. He escaped everytime. One of his escapes wasnât so much an escape as just an exit. He just walked on out of there. Who the fuck going to stop him after all.
He snuck out off base one night in Italy with his claymore sword because I guess he couldnât sleep and figured capturing 42 nazi officers with only his sword would be a good way to overcome insomnia. So he did that.
He so loved his sword that he is famous for saying no soldier is properly dressed for battle without one.
Oh - and he worked as a male model too.
This has been a rollercoaster
Back when Rome was still a Republic (so a democratic form of government without an emperor and the Senate was actually in charge) they had a special hill with a big special rock at the bottom.
The purpose of this was that whenever anyone tried to threaten the democracy of the Roman republic they would throw them off the hill so that their bodies would be dashed against the rock and die. This was done even to senators that tried to fuck with the citizens etc through their position.
This was both a form of punishment of course, but was also a symbolic gesture to set a clear example, that if you try and break the peopleâs will, the people and land itself will break you instead.
It was a cool rock.
Also, because topical, the American pledge of allegiance was made as a marketing campaign to sell flags to schools. It was literally an advertising scheme, and we just went with it
The modern birthstone list is also a marketing campaign, incidentally; while tying gemstones to months is an old tradition, the list everyone knows about was initially put together in 1912 by American jewellers who wanted a way to shift some of their inventory, then updated a few times as demand changed.
We need the big democracy rock back
Back in YE OLD ENGLAND, they had no concept of gender or sex as we know it. They firmly believed that âmenâ (people with penises) were properly âcookedâ in the womb, and so their genitals properly descended, and that âwomenâ (people with vaginas) were improperly âcookedâ. All were simply a different state of âthe same thing.â
As a result, we have many legal records of people dressing or living as the gender opposite of what they were assigned at birth, being taken to court, and using an explanation like âaha, you see, I was riding on my horse too hard, and my genitals SCHELORPD back up into my body, but I assure you I was born a manâ and âI tripped and fell, and the impact was so hard, my genitals descended, but I was born a woman, I swear.â
And the courts said âfine, but you must pick a gender and live with it for the rest of your life.â
And so thatâs how for quite some time, transgender people and gay marriage were legally allowed to exist in YE OLDE ENGLAND.
ITâS BACK AND EVEN LONGER
1. During the Black Death, they tried to cure the plague by plucking the feathers off the butt of a living chicken and strapping a very pissed off chicken to the plague sores. Usually in someoneâs armpits or groin.
2. The American pledge of allegiance wasnât just marketing, âunder Godâ was added in the 50s to root out communists.
3. Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer was a marketing jingle.
4. Benvenuto Cellini, Renaissance sculptor and playboy, was given arsenic by his enemies, but they messed up and didnât give him enough to kill him. They just cured his syphillis.
5. Renaissance Florence had a âproblemâ with homosexuality, so the Catholic Church imported courtesans from Venice, but no one was interested.
President Andrew Jackson was once gifted a 1,400 lb block of cheese by a dairy farmer from Sandy Creek, NY. The enormous wheel of fromage wore a banner with patriotic sayings such as "The Union must be preserved." What does one do with a massive hunk of aged cheddar? Why send it on tour of course. It gallivanted across the country in all its cheesy glory for almost a year, and then returned. As you can only imagine, after not being refrigerated for almost a year, it was pretty freaking ripe. Jackson continued to display it at the White House until everyone that walked in was like, "Wtf is that SMELL?" How did Jackson dispose of the cheese, you ask? HE THREW A PARTY. He invited the general public to come to the party, and over 10,000 people came and ATE 2 YEAR OLD ROTTEN CHEESE. In 4 hrs, the stinky cheese had been hacked to bits, and only the slimy reeking carpet it sat on and a putrid trail in and out the door were left. So, naturally, we made a special day for this event. Big Block of Cheese Day is celebrated every January. WTH America.

My favorite aesthetic role model. đĽ°đ
Putting this here because I felt sexy AF. Which is so very rare I felt the need to document it.
Please fucking lie to your employer. Like they donât need to know your mental health issues or what drugs you do. Ffs
its not lying if its to employers or cops
and look up ur rights on what they can and cannot ask u many places ban asking about ur record and transportation status and things like that resources will also tell u how they reword sketchy questions so ur prepared
Hey. Take it from a former HR person⌠this goes double right now. I just spent some time putting in some job applications myself (not for HR, lol) and got about 15 interviews. And idk if itâs because of COVID uncertainty or if places just donât fucking care anymore because they know people are desperate for work, but the amount of straight up illegal shit my interviewers asked me was appalling. (Thatâs not even counting the questions that were technically legal but clearly fishing for information theyâre not legally allowed to ask.)
A tame example? Two questions into a phone interview, the guy on the other end of the line asked: âHow old are you?â I said âExcuse me?â - giving him a chance to rethink that. He didnât. âHow old are you?â âSir, you are not allowed to ask me that question.â âWell, I want to know. Iâm asking.â âAnd youâre legally not allowed to ask me that. Iâm not required to tell you my age.â At that point, I guess he managed to remember an old HR bulletin or something (I hope to god he wasnât actually HR himself), and he said, âWell, I need to know if youâre over the age of 18.â (Which is what he should have asked in the first place⌠or not, since that was in the application that he could have read.) âYes. Iâm over the age of 18.â And we moved on. Two questions later, he tried another illegal question. I called him on it again and ended the interview, citing that a workplace with such a clear disregard for the law, especially upon first contact with a potential employee, was not going to be a good fit. (They offered me the job anyway, lol. I didnât send a thank-you or a response.)
At a different interview, the majority of questions were âfishingâ questions - just looking for that info theyâre not actually allowed to ask. (This person was also either not really HR or an HR person who was exceptionally bad at their job.)
I could tell they were getting frustrated when I dodged answering the personal stuff, and they actually got extremely upset when I mentioned later in the interview (re: less relevant work experience) I had worked in HR. They were super flustered for the remainder of our time, and I watched them skip over questions on their sheet they had clearly planned on asking. They KNEW they were being sketchy and were counting on me not knowing anything about HR - or my rights - and so they got upset when I did. These were super tame examples. Iâm begging you, if youâre job searching right now, PLEASE know your rights. Please know what interviewers are allowed to ask. Please donât volunteer information or elaborate more than youâre required to about personal things. Save your words (and everyoneâs time) by elaborating why youâre good for the position/what you can do. I may create a resource list on this shit later but PLEASE PLEASE KNOW THIS STUFF BEFORE YOU TALK TO AN EMPLOYER. This goes for anywhere youâre interviewing as well as your current employer. This also goes for HR. HR may be the person you go to when shitty stuff happens, but that doesnât mean theyâre your friend (or competent). They donât need to know your age (beyond 16+, 18+, or 21+, depending on the job). They donât need to know your medical history. (For the love of god, do NOT answer the âhave you been diagnosed with depression?â question.) They donât need to know if you have kids or whatever. They donât need to know a LOT of those things that may appear on an application, including your veteran status, whether youâre on/have been on unemployment, etc. Theyâre not entitled to know specifics about your transportation (unless youâre using that transportation for the job, like Uber/delivery drivers). Look this up for your state/the jobâs state. Beware questions like âWhat year did you graduate?â if youâre like me and donât put dates on your resume (I just put amount of time spent at employers, not dates of employment). Theyâre fishing for your age. Itâs âOh, you know, 100 years ago,â if you feel comfortable making a joke, or âAbout [generic number, like 5 or 10] years agoâ if not. Also beware things like the âWhat do you do in your free time?â question, even if you already work there. This is not a friendly getting-to-know-you question. This is a basis for judgement. Not up to an invisible standard? Theyâre going to be biased against you for pay raises, promotions, etc. Mention kids/lots of family/social engagements? Thatâs a tick against you for not being the kind of person who lives to work (yes, itâs gross and stupid). Mention lots of solitary things? Cool, thatâs their mental note to ask more from you because youâre ânot doing anything anyway.â By all means, be friendly with your coworkers/talk about shared interests if you want, but it is none of your bossâs business, and be aware what could get back to them. Donât. Tell. Employers. Shit.
We wrote up a handy list of those illegal questions here:
