wake me if you're out there

Em. 25. Generally frazzled, likes meaning.

Do you ever think about the possibility that maybe Eowyn was able to face the Witch King as fearlessly as she did because despair is his chief weapon and she’s already well acquainted with despair so it didn’t catch her off guard?

What I’m saying is I think Eru used horrible circumstances for good on multiple levels here and that her joy later not only outshone the horror of what she had been through it literally happened because of that horror

there's this one gravestone we've been working on setting up where it has a bench, and engraved on it it says 'don't hesitate to sit and think a while. when you're ready to speak, I will forever be ready to listen.' and it strikes me again and again how kind a thing that is to put on your stone. like yeah, I'm dead, but don't feel sorry for me. I'm still thinking of other people who have something heavy on their mind, and I want to be able to relieve that heaviness for a while, just by listening.

anyway this is to say the stone has an etching of a portrait of the lady and as soon as I connected the face to the bench I suddenly understood it and went 'i would probably sit and tell her all my problems too, she looks like she would be a good listener.'

hopefully it’ll actually be finished getting set up next week, but I had the papers so here you go

I’m convinced it was an interdimensional portal

Oooh, I know this one! The FAA (Federal Aviation Administration - they make the rules for flying here in the US) has designated “roads” in the sky to keep all the commercial jets from running into each other. When you’re headed the same direction at the same speed, you don’t get in each other’s way. If you’re heading east you fly at one elevation, and west-bound planes fly at a different height. There are lots of rules to keep mid-air crashes to a minimum.

However, if you’re running late, or weather in one spot is bad, you can call up Air Traffic Control and ask for a new route! And they will look at their little radar screens and maps of all the airplanes in the area, and tell you what shortcut you can take.

I am a little bit overcome by this. We made actual imaginary tunnels in the sky so our giant metal birds can fly through the open air in the most organized, polite way possible. We check in over our designated long distance thought projection machine channel that anyone can listen in on but we all promise not to interrupt to get permission to swap imaginary sky tunnels. We come up with the weirdest impossible shit and immediately give it boundaries! Humans are ridiculous. I mean yes these are good rules and many many people would die if we didnt have them, a+ on these rules, but if you take a step back wanting to sunder every natural limitation we can find and then going ahead and building our own so nothing gets too messy is a fucking hilarious art for a species to compulsively pursue.

writing sucks cause it’s like well ok i’m not gonna come up with gollum/sméagol so what’s the point. I’m not gonna make my protagonist walk his future on a leash and ache to find it pitiable. I’m not gonna prove to my protagonist that his friend only loves his present and will hate the person he’s trying not to become, though that too is a form of love. so what am I doing here wheres gollum.

you can't do a cheese poll and put hard cheese and soft cheese and cream cheese and aged cheese and fresh cheese and brined cheese all together this website is so fucking stupid mozzarella and parmesan aren't even in the same realm of cheese what's the criterion like for real put guyère vs halloumi next i don't even fucking know

another question that gets me is… would u be friends with your parents if they were your not your parents/ were the age you are now?? hard to tell bc who knows what they were really like at 20 something but….. we wonder. and we wonder and wonder. 

No offense but everyone needs to stop being so obsessed with gender. No men don't suffer more. No women don't suffer more either. Everyone has a different type of suffering. There's disgustingly selfish women and there's disgustingly selfish men. Both face different types of injustices. It's not a competition. Just stop.

Saint Vitus c.290 - c.303 Feast Day: June 15 Patronage: actors, dancers, comedians, epileptics, dogs, and against oversleeping, snake bites, storms, animal attacks, lightning and Saint Vitus Dance (Chorea).
Saint Vitus, the son of a pagan Sicilian, became a Christian along with his tutor and nurse at the age of 12. When his father found out he had them arrested and tortured. Legend has it that an angel freed them from prison and they fled to Rome. While there, Vitus exorcised a demon from Emperor Diocletian’s son. When Vitus wouldn’t sacrifice to the pagan gods, they attributed it to sorcery and threw him in a pot of boiling oil, along with a rooster (as part of a ritual against sorcery). The rooster became a symbol for Vitus, making him the patron against oversleeping. He was martyred in Lucania, Italy and is one of the 14 Holy Helpers.
