Here's a nice story I learned in the Norwegian ski museum:

In 1895, polar explorers Fridtjof Nansen and Hjalmar Johansen were having a bad time. Their expedition had faced some hardships and they were forced to stay on Franz Josef Land in a little hut they built out of mud and stones. In their hut, they slept for circa 20 hours a day, and spent the remaining four hours watching the northern lights or reminiscing about the comforts of home and the books they had read.

After several months of this, and nine months of sleeping in the same sleeping bag to stay warm, on New Year's Eve, Nansen finally gathered his courage and asked Johansen if they should start adressing each other with the informal you.

This is where the story ended in the museum, so unfortunately, I can't tell you whether Johansen answered yes or no.

“everyone interprets characters differently” unfortunately so true! thankfully I was blessed with an intense preternatural insight into their core beings (watched and paid attention) and I don’t have to worry

I just remembered that the Wayside School books had a pair of spinoff books that were a mix of math and cryptograms, which I think I was kind of obsessed with.

I did a big scary thing today and then I did ANOTHER big scary thing and now I am being small and tired and trying not to think about being scared.

"do it scared" is certainly advice to follow, but goddamn it's exhausting to slog through

the nypd doing a mass shooting over a $2.90 fare evasion truly is the inevitable endpoint of the police as an institution and also just the encapsulation of how everything we're fighting is all the same fucking thing at its core. nypd kkk idf you're all the same.

(in public) there is no hierarchy among we friends. all are equal. (in private) thomas has been relegated to the lowest friend privilege tier, with commensurate reduction in positive reacts in the group chat. if he continues in this way he will be referred to the high council.
