Female, Texan. A blog of all the random things I find (note)worthy!

โ€œThought 007 could never be a woman or black? Well, sheโ€™s both! James Bond will hand his licence to kill to actress Lashana Lynchโ€™s character when he retires in new film script drafted by Phoebe Waller-Bridgeโ€

โ€œPrediction: Whiny dudes will be shaken AND stirred.โ€

Story idea: The most wanted woman in town has announced that sheโ€™ll only marry the one who can open her front door with the key around her catโ€™s neck. Many men try to hunt the cat down, chase and trap it, but to no avail, the cat is simply too quick, smart and clever, and always finds a way to evade and avoid them.

ย You are the first one to figure out the obvious: Do not chase the cat. The cat is befriendable. Get the cat to trust you, to genuinely enjoy your company, and you can hang out with the cat. You may eventually be allowed to touch the cat. The cat will freely let you take the key.

ย Secondary plot twist: The woman is a shapeshifter. She is the cat.

Thatโ€™s some legit fairy tale level shit right there.

When I readย โ€œthe most wanted woman in townโ€, I thought it meant she was a master criminal.ย 

CLEARLY sheโ€™s a CAT BURGLAR

This fairytale has everythingโ€ฆshapeshifting, romance, lesbianism, cats, BAD PUNS <3

โ€œNational Geographic called me and asked me to write the feminist facts about how The Lion King gets lion pride dynamics all wrong. I happily complied. Lions are matrilineal!!ย 

When I contacted Craig Packer, one of the worldโ€™s leading lion researchers, to talk ย about this story he was IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE. He Skyped me almost instantly from a camp in Kenya and said heโ€™s been waiting for someone to ask him this question since the original film came out.

Anyway, if The Lion King were real, Nala would be the star, Sarabi would be holding her up saying everything the light touches is our kingdom, Simba would have left and never come back, and when Nala got old enough Sarabi would have carved out a territory for her to rule.โ€

And this is because it would be really shit of them to open up your entire brain into hysterical Upset and then boot you out without helping you find equilibrium, but there is probably someone right after you. Just to fully articulate.

Yeah exactly. When I do therapy I always keep an eye on the clock so I know when I have enough time to keep opening up big issues, vs. when I have to work on getting them back to stable so they donโ€™t leave my office and walk straight into a wall.

Thank fucking God holy shit

I was always under the impression it was because she needed to see how much time she had left til her next appointment. I still feel like this is a thing despite the above reassurancesโ€ฆ

I sit in the bass section in band. Today I could clearly hear the flutes up at the front! Theyโ€™re not great, but I can finally hear them!
