Certain words can change your brain forever and ever so you do have to be very careful about it.
shinzo abe day was incredible. still not over seeing all the rumours about what happened, joining everyone in wondering how the fuck a shotgun assassination could have happened in japan, and then seeing the first photo of the doohickey
Lemme look something up...
This is literally some Looney Toons level bullshit
Ah yes, the first Spanish astronaut
Okay, this is a very good technique, I'm sorry they didn't try it on Hitler. Or Stalin.
please no one disturb me I am doing important research on wikipedia dot com today
I see I've released a new word into the tumblr ecosystem, glad we're all being totally normal about it <3

dungeons and drag queens taking place post-acofaf. they’ve reconnected the realms, but done too good a job. now there are just portals everywhere for american music producers to just drive right into.

How wonderful, then, are gloves?
Now this is what I am fucking talking about
Listen, you should never film strangers in public without their consent, but I swear there need to be fines or something for people who do that shit in some spaces. For example: I had to go to the ER last night, and some jerk filmed a woman who just came in and was clearly having an asthma attack. She immediately got to go back, and he was unhappy about that. Believe me, I get that it sucks having to wait when you're in pain, but you don't get to pick who deserves care when. The medical system in the US is a nightmare, and the ER could be the worst moment of someone's life. No one deserves to be recorded because some jack ass believes someone doesn't look like they need care.
This is fine to reblog. People who film strangers should be shamed if nothing else.
I know a lot of EFR instructors (Emergency first response, the people who teach CPR classes) who used to be ambivalent about this and now are firmly in the "fuck you fuck your phone category.
Maybe its demographics, EFR instructors do tend to be older and less online, but there's been a shift from voyeur filming being seen as irritating and tasteless to actively harmful.
I met one lady who had an entire section of her lecture based on how to divide labor in emergency and one of those steps was crowd control. If you are taking charge of an emergency situation, you delegate tasks. Point at one person and tell them to call 911, Point at another person tell them to warn traffic, Point at another person tell them to get the first aid kit if you know where it is. You assign small tasks to individuals instead of asking a crowd that way the task actually happens, and you're not sitting around 20 minutes later wondering why the ambulance is taking so long to show up and it turns out that everyone assumed someone else called.
Now there is another step. Pick a big dude and tell him to stop people from filming. Which is actually the tamest version of what she said, because this lady went on and on about how phones are fragile, light, small, pieces of computer equipment that can be easily punted into oblivion.
And yeah, she's probably the most vocal proponent of property destruction in the face of voyeur filming I've heard lately but she's far from the only person in emergency services who's frustrated with the eternal quest for viral videos of strangers pain.
And to be clear there is a huge difference between the paramedic who doesn't want you filming and the cop who doesn't want you filming.
Anybody else got that Evergiven sized writers block

And in these next 50 years you will eat so many delicious meals, laugh so many times with so many people you love, shout and scream and sing and cry and smile so hard your face hurts. And you will see such beautiful sunsets and feel fresh cold air on your face and feel warm and safe wrapped up in your favourite winter coat.
I wrap this blessing around you like a shroud, so that no ill can find you, and every warmth is held close
In case you thought the OceanGate missing submersible news couldn't be worse- this has happened before. The submersibles don't even have a beacon. They rely on a gamepad controller and short texts to the mother ship for navigation.
The company knew full well the technology they're using is dogshit and not approved by anyone at all, and they were covering it up to sell more 100,000 dollar trips to rich tourists so they can see the Titanic.
The best thing about Pavitr is that this dude is giggling and kicking his feet whenever he thinks about his girlfriend Gayatri.

Can you tell us more about Typhon please? The egg thing sounds interesting
ooh ok. this is an orphic tradition, but gaia gets mad about her giant offspring getting killed so she makes up rumours about zeus and tells them to hera and hera gets pissed off about them (because she believes them) so she goes to kronos and is like “dadddd my stupid husband is pissing me off”, and kronos is like “no problem kiddo take these two eggs and bury them”. but the eggs are coated in kronos’ semen 😔 thus, hera buries the eggs, and sometime later, Typhon emerges from the eggs.
so. that’s why i’m saying you could have a pocket Typhon to defend yourself!! u just order some specially coated eggs from Kronos’ Free Range Egg Monster Factory, and hatch them whenever ur pissed off!! order now*!!
*do NOT try to coat the eggs yourself 😩
^^ relevant btw
sorry but i can’t leave you in the dark about this one!! u NEED to be aware about set and the lettuce incident.. also i did the meme wrong lol Set didn’t jack off on lettuce lol he just ate it.
Kara gets roped into the RenFaire scene one summer as a face painter because a) she's an art major, and b) she's an art major who needs money. Her friend Nia has worked concessions there since she was old enough to get her workers permit, and swears to Kara that its a great place to work if she doesn't mind the occasional heat wave.
Which, to Nia's credit, is true. Except what Nia forgets to mention is that the resident RenFaire fiddler will make Kara feel like she's living in a permanent heat wave.
The fiddler's name is Lena, and she's gorgeous. Long raven locks and skin like ivory, wearing frocks of green leaves and shimmering wings, she looks like something out of a fairytale.
