I was about to be irritated at a shitty "kids' education" website on 1770s clothing but then I learned that there's a staymaker buried at King's Chapel and now I'm just delighted to know the gravesite of a clothing worker from that era and I want to take him flowers

less “if you see a man and woman together at pride be nice! they could be bi/pan/trans/ace/aro” and more “stop gendering strangers to harass them anywhere, but especially at pride holy shit”

A Review of Krispy Kreme Donuts:
Fresh, hot Original Glazed: transcendental. A master class in donutology. Sensual. An inescapable temptation to wild gluttony. Something that inspires the energy of a predator hunting down a tender and fleshy prey animal, but it's a one dozen box of donuts in thr front seat of your car in a rainy parking lot. An emotional high untaintable by mortal troubles.
Their other donuts: fine ig 😕

"Innovations"
Entrepreneur: I've improved the wheelchair by...
Actual Wheelchair Users: Making it cheaper?!
Entrepreneur: ...creating a wildly inconvenient version for seven bazillion dollars that weighs as much as a grown man, goes 100mph and can't be taken on a plane.
Actual Wheelchair Users: What?! No, I can't afford a basic chair that meets my medical needs.
Entrepreneur: I just want to improve people's lives...
Actual Wheelchair Users: Make insurance pay for the perfectly reasonable, normal, not weird wheelchair my doctor prescribed for me.
Entrepreneur: But... but...innovation...disruption.

I do like characters who do not exhibit any hint of sexuality in any way because they’re too busy being tormented by the narrative. like “yea I might be gay or whatever but the labyrinth is growing so I can’t worry about that shit rn”

I don’t have younger siblings but if I did I would be pissed if one of them overthrew the republic I live in and declared himself emperor and made me call him “sire” and shit. Joseph Bonaparte should’ve assassinated Napoleon. For several reasons

one way social media is actually GREAT training for how to read Classic Literature is that you get boatloads of hands-on experience in sensing when a bizarre, inscrutable, semi-coherent string of non-sequiturs is just the author grinding their axe in service of a point that's seventeen layers deep in discourse you've barely heard of
