How to can spot a bad sailor: this is an anchor that doesn’t work as an anchor — you must either cut the line or have someone swim down there to untangle it.
Like Captain Ahab would have worn this necklace in Moby Dick to show he was a bad sailor.
Sailing rule #1: don’t get into a death match with a whale. You’re in their house. Show some respect!

I have a problem with Lirin’s form of pacifism. Yes, high ideals and the value of life and compassion and everything.
But also, you are able to live as a pacifist because your son will stab someone in the fucking face about it, and he’s right to do it.
And didn’t you steal like a million dollars from a dying guy? You have no moral high ground, dad. It’s your own fucked up shit that killed Tien, and now Kaladin carries the guilt that should be yours.
sorry to lirin but he will simply never be getting forgiveness from me from his whole “why couldn’t you just have been a good slave kaladin? and then you could’ve been treated better” as if kaladins reactions to literally being made property are at all unwarranted

the only recipes that are honest about how long it takes to cook them are the crockpot recipes that have you cook things for six hours

I don’t want a recipe that claims to be done 15 minutes. I want a recipe that tells me how to plant the asparagus and the best way to care for potatoes. I want a recipe that estimates times for a solar cooker, and describes how to butcher a rabbit.
Every recipe starts with our global food systems and how we’ve changed plants over the centuries, and anything else is just cowardice.

Also climate change. Like this is how math works — the CO2 parts per million has an effect we have understood for almost 200 years at this point. The inevitability is rolling over us but ignoring is more comfortable for everyone.
So I just do my meaningless data entry that pays for my garden, and amor fati.
Imagine you and a friend both watch someone toss a ball into the air. You're like, "Oh, it's going to come down here, so we'd better move," and your friend says, "Tch, clearly it's not coming down AT ALL," and just stands there.
Then, when the ball hits them, they're either mystified at how you figured it out, or they chalk it up to luck.
Either way, the NEXT time someone tosses a ball in the air and you tell them where it's going to fall, they're absolutely CERTAIN you're wrong THIS time, and assure you that THIS time the ball is going to stay in the air. So you get out of the way while your friend gets beaned again.
This is what it's like having autistic pattern recognition and not being taken seriously.

Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.

Imagine Murderbot getting comfortable enough in *inside you* that it starts renaming the rooms.
**FTFY because ART’s rooms are its insides.
Now I’m imagining a conversation between with ART that goes—
Murderbot: I don’t know why humans think it’s sexy to get inside each other. I am inside you all the time, and it’s not sexy at all!
Imagine Murderbot getting comfortable enough in your home that it starts renaming the rooms.

Kaladin and Moash
tragic gay people who started out loving each other but over time magical intent, neither of which was good, drove them apart until they were only shadows of their former selves and one dies trying to stop the other

The hands holding justice down are both republican and democrat.
I get where you are coming from, and we do need to vote to restore rights around female bodily autonomy and democrats are the party doing that.
But the cartoon picture has one hand republican and one hand democrat and both are holding down justice.
Tumblr media
That is a powerful cartoon. Women have been oppressed for thousands of years.
Women it is time to stop the oppression.
Vote for Democrats.
We have to fight. Our rights are too important not to.

This is how I think of the inevitable results of climate change. Our stories are meaningful, even if they all end.
