Včera jsem dětem na začátku výuky předávala vzkaz od vedení o probíhající soutěži - lyrický počin o Brně. Jakýkoliv jazyk, jakýkoliv žánr, možnost zpracovat jevištně s hudbou a tancem.

Po uzření nálady v místnosti jsem zkusmo poprosila, ať zvednou ruku všichni, kdo mají rádi Brno.

Po uzření absence rukou v místnosti jsem jim prozradila, že spalující rapová kritika s refrénem "Brno, ústav smrti, dětské duše drtí, já se odstěhuju" také odpovídá pravidlům. Děti výrazně pookřály.

Za svoje působení na mládež se neomlouvám, zajatce neberu.

by talos this can’t be happening is a mandela effect because the actual phrase is by the gods this can’t be happening and i’ve never heard anyone say the former in game

by talos this can’t be happening

the phrase by talos this can’t be happening is actually from a rupaul roleplay blog who left their husband in a cage with no food and water for a few weeks and the husband died sorry to be the spoil sport but it does have an origin and it is a very tumblr origin in nature

Here’s the post they’re referring to for context

Oh. Skyrim husband.

oh god

Oh Talos

I love seeing it when people find this out. I fucking love it.

I love how when the ghouls get flowers on stage they stick their whole face in them to try and smell them

unsolicited parenting advice of the day tell your kids what to expect! If your two year old is anxious about when dad is going to get home from work, teach him to recognize what patterns indicate that dad is coming home soon! After lunch we will do an activity and then clean and THEN dad will get home. Listen when the calendar day starts with an S dad does not have to go to work!!

and if something goes wrong and today does NOT go according to the plan your little guy expects, tell him!! Hey, dad has to go to work after all today, but he will be home after lunch! Today dad has to get groceries after work, so he’ll be home later than normal. But he will return with more bananas! Focus on the positives too, give them things they can understand. Don’t just say “not today,” they understand the concept of grocery stores and unexpected trips. Just tell them the problem. You’d hate being in the dark about everything that happens to you also. Let them control their situation, even if it’s just their own emotions and expectations.

or even! Teach them to read an analogue clock! Let me tell you, church nursery in the 1.5-3.5 age group got so much less stressful and anxious for EVERYONE when I taught my kids how to read the clock. They don’t have to ask me anymore how much time is left and fish for answers I can’t give them. They know that their guardians will come for them when the long stripe on the clock touches the 2, and that if they aren’t there then then they’re LATE and they get to hold this over their parents head. Because they know their parents can be late. And they LOVE knowing when this has occurred. There is so much less anxiety.

anyway explain stuff to your kids, they want to know. This has been an unsolicited parenting advice PSA

So Fox News ran a story about how they think libraries are turning into drug-infested sex dens and I am shocked, shocked that I was never offered any drugs during my 15+ years working in libraries.

Where do they think the sex is happening?? Every single aisle is lit in that horrible LED lighting. The teens don't even make out here anymore.

As a state certified librarian I can assure you that you just have to go into your local library and ask if they're participating in the new Fox News Hysteria program smh. If they're not, you'll just have to renew your library card and use the fun and valuable resources they're offering right now, such as wifi hotspots, museum passes, dvd lending, mid level adult erotica, ebook lending, and printing! 😔

There’s this feeling I sometimes get watching humans do the cool things that humans have been doing for thousands of years. It makes my chest expand and my heart thud and I love it. I love this.

Holy shit I thought those were birds on the masts at first. They’re not

Remembering when I went over to my female teacher's house in 5th grade and saw that she lived with another female teacher & went home going "wow, so teachers really do all live together!" & then my family had to explain to me what lesbians are

OH UNHOLY LORDT SWISS AND AURORA GOT HIS BI ASS

Another dream comic. Had a dream where I was tied to a chair in a dark room and some hooded figures killed me after I begged for my life—but then I got caught in a time loop and so I kept trying to figure out what I could say to get them to not shoot me but they killed me no matter what I said. Started just shouting random stuff eventually.

do you agree

Me: I shouldn't disturb Neil Gaiman. I shouldn't send an ask unless I really have no way of getting the information otherwise. I'll check old interviews and all the articles that vaguely mention the subject. Of course it goes without saying that I'll read though the FAQ in its entirety. Only then, will I send an ask. However, I'd be very polite and praise his work, as anyone would. I'd also keep it short, because I don't want to waste his time. But I'd keep it very very respectful. I'd be sending a message to a very talented, amazing author that deals with god knows how many like me. Or I'd just stay in the dark and not send him an ask. Yeah, I'll do that.

My Dash:

everyone is saying " oh celia is an anagram for alice" "there was a celia in Tma". have you considered, that Jonny simply cannot fucking name characters. I mean, needles. needles is a character (no hate I love them). and need I remimd you of the michaels? or that the protagonist of Tma is literally just his name? I dont think its that complex I think Jonny is just shit at names

edit: as of Tmagp 7 fuck this idea. its the same person absolutely no way its not

i have read magyk so many times since it came out when i was a child and yall i literally never clocked the muriel as a foreshadowing of the dragon - green boat red sails - like literally a foreshadowing of the dragon boat and like is the splitting of muriel a foreshadowing of spitfyre??? idk maybe anyway i love these books so much

My kink is unloved characters suddenly being loved unconditionally

My kink right now is unloved characters suddenly realizing that they are loved unconditionally.

My kink is also unloved characters realizing they deserve that unconditional love

@nathanwpyle

I literally love this.

I couldn't stop laughing for 20 minutes.

No joke.

This has the same energy as a writer desperately trying to make their insanely cool but devastatingly off the wall plot point work with the rest of the story

POV you’re the king and i just made an inappropriate joke about your virility in front of the whole royal court and you want to punish me but you can’t react in anger lest the court think my joke is true

thank you all for understanding my vision

thinking about the czech anthem in comparison to the majority of other national anthems and we truly are the poor little meow meow of countries

why

That reminded me my favorite joke: What would happned if atomic bomb exploded in Slovakia? Not much, we would just change the anthems. Czech would be singing Nad Tatrú sa blýská ( There is lightning over the Tatras ) and Slovaks would be singing Kde domov můj (where is my home).. :D

why would you want to cut throats when you have this :(
