It's really interesting to see the different vibes of 'aita' in the tumblr ecosystem versus it's native ecosystem

A lot of reddit ones boil down to - 'I've done the most abhorrent thing to a loved one/child/random person but I surely can't be in the wrong' or 'I'm in actual horror movie scenario but was I over reacting to not wanting to be jeff the killed' While a lot of the ones I've seen on tumblr's @am-i-the-asshole-official - relatively minor situation/insignificant but I'm *way* to in my own head about it 'i took an extra breadstick at the party thus depriving someone else of a precocious bread stick' or 'i'm in a such a wild relationship that needs to be studied by professionals for decades'

You'd think ours would be more wild considering we've had bone stealing witches, dashcon, and so on

I was planning on wearing jeans and a western(ish) shirt to Juno's world premiere. I thought it was a cool look, and it had a collar. That's fancy, right? I thought. When the Fox Searchlight publicity team learned about my outfit, they urgently took me to Holt Renfrew on Bloor Street, with a dramatic rushing that is characteristic of the Hollywood circulatory system. I suggested a suit. They said I should wear a dress and heels. After they discussed this with the director, he called me. He said he agreed with them, insisting that I play the part. Michael Cera rocked sneakers, slacks, and a collared shirt. He looked fancy to me. I wonder why they didn't take him to Holt Renfrew. I guess he had nothing to hide, he was approved. He fit the part.

introducing Pierce's father and making him this horrible racist person actually puts Pierce's character into a wildly different light. like, Pierce has always been a super racist character. if you're not white, he knows 10+ slurs for you and has used at least 4 of them in the last week. but Cornelius. Cornelius is racist to everyone. he's got slurs locked and loaded for Finnish people. Pierce grew up with this hyper-racist as a father and then he unlearnt 70% of it, which is. fascinating. and impressive, in a very pathetic way

wondering about Loop's thoughts on the party. since they're absolutely Siffrin even if they refuse to tell me about it. do they miss them? do they envy Siffrin? did theirs die? did they even get to the point where they're properly close to them? I'm guessing not, since they poked fun at 'family members'. but if so how did their loops turn out? I can't imagine the answer being WELL if they ended up A Star and Not Close To Their Friends

Pardon my lateness, but I was only today years old when I realized that Rosh HaShanah is directly related to the Arabic term for the New Year, "رأس السّنة" ("ra's al-sana", or "ras e'sene" in Lebanese dialect), which literally translates to "the head of the year" (yes, as in the literal head).

another weird random connection between fen'harel and ghilan'nain is that those are the two gods bram kenric forgot in jaws of hakkon

I need y'all to know for the record that I am NOT having a pjo phase. This madness extends to none of the rest of the franchise, it's just about Jason Grace and will end when I finally say everything I have to say about Jason Grace. I am possibly the first person in history this has happened to.

have one of those "THK lives" AUs and insert a character who is super upset with them because the bugs they cared about died to the infection THK was supposed to stop for good

Was wondering yesterday if Peeta's parents roles were switched--so if Mr. Mellark were the one calling Peeta names and hitting him and Mrs. Mellark was nice and soft-spoken--how people's opinions of them would change.

I tend to subscribe to the idea that you can't talk about everything and you can't be always concerned about everything and not posting about something is not necessarily evidence of not caring, alright? You've got to make decisions about what you have time and energy for. Of course you do!

Now, I'm sleep deprived and so my filter is lower so I'm certain I will regret posting this eventually, but. All that said. It is utterly insane to me how many posts I see (usually correctly, don't get me wrong, don't even start with me) highlighting Israeli crimes and demanding change, but when tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of Israelis have been protesting against their far-right government for TWENTY-NINE STRAIGHT WEEKS it has been flat fucking crickets from everyone I follow on every single website who is not Jewish or Israeli themselves.

If you want change, you have got to support the people on the ground fighting for it.

isnt the calendar colouring marking which day of the month is the first and last day? like the day of the week it starts and ends on? so september begins on a Sunday, ends on a Monday? the coloured chunks marking days not included in that month?

added your addition. the thing is, they don't fill the days. not all months anyway. to avoid annoying people with my bullshit, pics under the cut:

April is fine and suits your theory greatly (honestly, i wish it was the case. and looking only on January i thought it was. but then February and March threw me off and i began spiralling because of it 😂). May starts on Wednesday but Monday and Tuesday aren't colored.

July. Tuesday and Friday aren't colored. Saturday and Sunday are.

August. idk what to say. 30th and 31st are colored. so as missing Sunday.

our September that you can't really see. the top 6 missing days are colored as you said. but the bottom... 4 missing days are "white", Sat and Sun are gray.

October. the 1st missing Monday isn't colored. the 1st missing Friday also isn't colored. Sat and Sun are.

November. perfectly colored, suits your theory. next.

December. missing Monday-Saturday are colored as they "should". Wed-Fri aren't, then Sat-Sun are.

conclusion: i have no idea what is going on. they are not marking weekends or long holidays as well. i don't think so. i'll make better pictures when it's not that dark outside. the lighting is atrocious thus different angles to avoid the shade of my hand, i'm so sorry.

I think it's so interesting how in 92sies when they're handing out the flyers for the children's crusade all of the newsies it shows handing them out start with "can you read?" "do you know how to read?" before giving anyone a paper whereas Sarah just hands it to people and says "take this" "read this"

So much of what people call maturity is just resignation. Just like "no, this isn't right, but it's the way the world is and it ain't gonna change for you so shut up and pay the man"
