the whole “ideologically i don’t agree with big huge fuckoff weapons of war but it’s hard to deny they’re not sick as shit” thing has gotta be a million times more prevalent in the divine principality you know people are getting into discourse on principality twitter every day over whether it’s okay to say that even if she is an evil body horror imperialism robot motion does kind of go hard aesthetically speaking

fr this was an excellent article though. it has the "no shit" energy of a study that says not bullying your children makes them happier, but tears apart the "nobody wants to work anymore" rhetoric and points out how it was the mbta *ceding to union demands* that caused the spike in applicants. read it here

Blocking this doily was an experience! It took a little over three hours and a bit of my sanity. I’ve told myself I’ll never do this again, but I feel as if that might be a lie..

Photos of the doily are of it while being blocked. I totally forgot to get any pics after I took all the pins out. The finished size was 51 inches in diameter.

the thing about mr darcy. is that everything he does he does because of his eldest sibling syndrome. it's so important that he has a younger sister and it's so important that she's 16 and it's so important that their parents are dead. it's so important that georgaina is friendly and cheerful and that he hates everyone. it's so important that he loathes wickham for what he did to her and gets involved to stop him from destroying lizzy's younger sister's life. it's so important that he moves bingley away because he thinks he's about to get his heart broken. it's so important that bingley is a lot like georgiana. like seriously darcy is an asshole because he's an eldest sibling and he's so so sweet because he's an eldest sibling that's the whole point

at least once every couple of months I still think about the time my old coworker said I was an extremely serious person and she'd never once heard me make a joke, and apart from that not being true at all I just kept thinking about a few days prior when I'd told this same coworker "my brain actually doesn't have any wrinkles, it's actually perfectly smooth and round like a beach ball"
