wish the human body had like a crash log or something so I could pin shit down. Why am I having a sudden spike of anxiety when I’m just sitting here? Well it looks like there’s a conflict here between my medication and the better foliage mod

still so fucking weird to go from real life, where a cis man being flamboyant/effeminate/camp is judged like 70+% by how he speaks and carries himself, to online queer communities, which often seem to have no concept of male gender non-conformity that doesn’t involve wearing a skirt

Saying "mosquitoes are annoying" after one bites me but shaking my head the whole time so the attractive single ecologists in my area know I understand their value in the ecosystem and that we would slowly die if they went extinct

i hate when aromanticism & QPPs are used as an excuse for queerbaiting. because i know damn well those creators were not thinking about us. we deserve characters & stories that were written with us in mind, that were written BY us, that have relish in everything aro, our unique experiences and perspectives, and the MANY ways in which we can have relationships. not just allo character sloppy seconds.

Mrs. Claus opens "The Year Without a Santa Claus" by claiming the eponymous year took place "before you were born". Seeing as the movie was released in 1974, this means the year must have been before then.

Bounding this on the lower end is the presence of ice hockey - mentioned by Heat Miser - and the use of telephones. Ice hockey was invented in 1875, while Alexander Graham Bell built the telephone in 1876, meaning the year must post-date these. These figures give a range of approximately 100 years during which Santa may have taken his holiday.

Yet, narrowing this further is the presence of a December calendar counting the 1st to a Wednesday. Between 1876 and 1974, only the Decembers of 1880, 1886, 1897, 1909, 1915, 1920, 1926, 1937, 1943, 1948, 1954, 1965, and 1971 started on a Wednesday.

But still this can be narrowed further.

When Santa set out that Christmas Eve, we see what appears to be an almost full Moon in the sky. Within the years listed, only 1920 had a full Moon on Christmas.

Ergo, 1920 was the year without a Santa Claus.

Steve: *holding up a frisbee* Eddie, why was this frisbee in the dishwasher?

Eddie: That's a plate.

Steve: No, it's a frisbee.

Eddie: If it's a frisbee, then why have I been eating off it for the last few months?

Steve: Because you're weird!

Eddie: Hey! You chose me!

Steve: Eddie, this is a frisbee.

Eddie: *shrieks* Plate!

Robin walked into the kitchen.

Robin: What are you doing with my plate?

Steve and Eddie: Your plate?

Robin: Yeah, I found it in the sports section at the store. I think they use it for camping.

Steve: *sigh* Okay, we might as well just call it a fucking plate. Living with you two is exhausting, but at least it's never boring.

“Of course, the angel-roof is our great show-piece—I think myself it’s even lovelier than the ones at March or Needham Market, because it has all the original colouring. At least, we had it touched up here and there about twelve years years back, but we didn’t add anything. It took ten years to persuade the churchwardens that we could put a little fresh gold-leaf on the angels without going straight over to Rome, but they’re proud of it now. We hope to do the chancel roof too, one day. All these ribs ought to be painted, you can still see traces of colour, and the bosses ought to be gilt.”

—Mrs. Venables in Dorothy L. Sayers, The Nine Tailors, “The Second Course: The Bells in Their Courses,” 1934.

The angel roof was a popular church fixture in England from about 1395 to 1530, particularly in the East Anglia region. Because of their relative inaccessibility on the ceiling, the carved and brightly painted wooden angels were able to survive the general destruction of Roman Catholic church iconography during the English Reformation.

One of my favorite things about the difference between Protestant denominations and Catholicism is that Protestants made their whole thing being So Fucking Boring(tm) and normal that if you were raised around Protestants with little to no connection to the Catholic Church when you find out about all the saints and rituals and bones and shit it genuinely comes off as a little like...pagan isn't the right word exactly but you know what I mean? Like for my entire life good Christians sat on folding chairs in a beige basement eating shitty donuts from Albertsons and told me liking Pokemon and Halloween made me a sinner and then I go to see an old Catholic church and there's just like. A fucking ancient corpse in the room?? That everyone is praying over??? Like????? And THIS is actually the religion all the "Pokemon normalizes devil worship" guys originally came from several hundred years ago??????

It's wild okay. It's just wild.

The really cool thing about hydrangeas is that they can be blue, pink, or purple based primarily on the pH of the soil. A free science experiment in every plant.

Omg this is so cool I didn’t know this! I wonder if I can do this experiment with students
