My friend has a Janakh.

hung out with my young cousin today and she showed me "soul bug school" which is the gap between her toy chest and the wall where she secretly puts every dead bug she finds in the house

Advice I gave someone today was: 'do it stupid.'

She wants to learn photography. Do it stupid. Take a million photos. Don't think about why they're not good. Enjoy the process of taking photos.

Pick out tge ones you like the most and figure out why you like them. Is it because the subject is centered? Is it because you caught them doing something cool? Is it because the light made cool shadows?

Do it stupid. If you try to do it smart, youll get stuck. If you think too much you'll never get to doing. Do it stupid.

“i have of late lost all my mirth” should be a valid reason not to come in to work

Teach your children to respect animals and the world around them. Teach them that nature isn't their toy and that their actions have consequences. Teach them compassion for other beings and creatures.

my family is fucking addicted to macgyvering and it's becoming a problem. every time something in this house breaks, instead of doing the sensible thing of replacing it or calling someone qualified to fix it, we all group around the offending object with a manic look in our eyes and everyone gets a try at fixing it while being cheered on or ridiculed by the rest.

it's a beautiful bonding activity, but the "creative" fixes have turned our house into a quasihaunted escape room like contraption where everything works, but only in the wonkiest of ways. you need a huge block of iron to turn on the stove. the oven only works if a specific clock is plugged in. the bread machine has a huge wood block just stapled to it that has become foundational to its function. sometimes when you use the toaster the doorbell rings. and that's just the kitchen.

it's all fun and games until you have guests over and you have to lay out the rules of the house like it's a fucking board game. welcome to the beautiful guest room. don't pull out the couch yourself you need a screwdriver for that, and that metal rod makes the lamp work so don't move it. it also made me a terrifying roommate in college, because it makes me think i can fix anything with enough hubris and a drill. you want to call the landlord about a leaky faucet? as if. one time my dad made me install a new power socket because we ran our of extension cords

If you need a petty distraction from the world's horrors, go look up the new cybertruck logo. It's laughably awful.

i remember you telling me that Nohn Jorman said that the first humans were transported to gor in like. The plioscene. I have since learned more about the Pliocene and human evolution, and i want to stress that the humans the priest kings would have transplanted onto gor would have been fucking Homo Erectus. If not earlier species. I cannot stress the level of divergent evolution that would have happened. I want to strangle that man. Woe, dragon be upon ye, gor.

Gor has supposedly been in orbit around our sun for two million years. The Priest Kings took the first people then to serve as slaves.

The first stones of Ar are supposed to have been laid like ten thousand fucking god damn years ago.

TEN. THOUSAND. YEARS. AGO

FUCK YOU JOHN NORMAN FUCK YOU I WANT AN ANTHROPOLOGIST TO CORNER YOU IN A CONFERENCE ROOM AND BRAIN YOU WITH A BOOK ON THE NEOLITHIC

Someone is getting a tarot reading and the first card is Death

The person doing the reading explains that death is usually a metaphor, and refers to a large change

The second card is The Tower

They explain that the tower often refers to tragedy when asked if that means death they say it can but doesn't always

The third card is Someone Is Actually For Real Going To Die

Ivy the gargoyle from Dota 3 Deadlock(game)

I like how she's not the typical mischievous imp archetype with a grating voice but instead a peppy girl with a heart of gold
