TIL that the reason lead levels in children’s blood have dropped 85% in the past thirty years is because of an unknown scientist who fought car companies to end leaded gasoline. He also removed it from paint, suggested its removal from pipes, and campaigned for the removal of lead solder from cans.

Best thing my grandfather ever taught me is that you’ve gotta let yourself grunt and groan when you’re doing something difficult. Makes it easier.

i’m so glad earth only has one moon, if there were more i’d have to pick a favorite and that sounds too emotionally taxing to even fathom

Now that we’ve got confirmation (like we didn’t already figure it out lol) that Rio is Death, I wanna say again how wicked it is that the Green Witch is this foreboding reaper figure.

I feel like there’s a temptation to make earthy witch characters like her a mother figure, or a maiden or something like that, focused on the “life” portion of nature. But nature is death. It is an endless cycle of decay and rebirth and decay again. All roads lead to Her.

all goofing aside I genuinely don't understand the urge to reimagine Taylor Allison Swift as a secretly queer icon when the pop music scene(TM) is like. literally overflowing with women who actually like women. Gaga and Kesha and Miley and Halsey are right there. Rina Sawayama and Hayley Kiyoko and Rebecca Black and Kehlani and Victoria Monét and Miya Folick if you're willing to get slightly less top 100. Janelle and Demi for them nonbinary takes on liking girls. like what are we doing here. like I'm not even saying you can't enjoy Taylor but why would you hang all your little gay hopes on her.

Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.

Kamala: "My mother was middle class and she worked hard to give us a home. I worked hard to be a successful businesswoman. Vote for me and I will provide actual answers to questions."

Trump: "My dad only gave me a few million dollars when I was born. I turned it into billions. People are surprised by how many billions I have. I'm so relatable. Vote for me and I'll get rid of the transgender aliens haunting the solar panels. No hate to the solar panels, by the way."
