‘Tis a strange mystery, the power of words!Life is in them, and death. A word can sendThe crimson colour hurrying to the cheek.Hurrying with many meanings; or can turnThe current cold and deadly to the heart.Anger and fear are in them; grief and joyAre on their sound; yet slight, impalpable:–A word is but a breath of passing air.

The Power of Words
The words we speak to…
just had an anti on one of my posts say “harassment is human nature” NO THE FUCK ITS NOT?? harassing people is not normal and is actually a crime?? get help??
I will never understand the obsession with making tims favourite robin Jason when it couldn't be more painfully obvious that tims favourite robin was Dick
Like people are so caught up in the concept, the made up angst, that tims favourite robin beat him up that they straight up misunderstand how much more significant Tim and Dicks relationship is not to mention the added layers of Tim originally being created as the ultimate self insert character which for a good number of readers meant they grew up with Dick as their favourite robin and didn't really like Jason just for not being Dick
this part always gets me giggling kicking my feet twirling my hair. when wade kept asking about logan's suit saying he just wanted to bond, logan said "well then talk about something else"
he's practically showing us he's not against talking to wade at all, unlike how he wants us to believe by being so grumpy and telling him to stfu all the time.... that scene really got me going "aw he wants to bond? 🥺" in the theatre
Bakugo wants you. Kuroo wants you. They aren’t teenagers on behalf of not being real. He is not actually in high school, because his high school is not real, and HE is not real. If you find his design from earlier on more attractive or more appealing or even just like him at that point as well as later on, that is perfectly fine, and he would find you attractive, too. Unlike the OP, most 30-year-olds know this due to having been alive to mature for 30 years. I hope this helps anyone who may have been confused.
everyone wants to make fun of "im not like other girls" and "im only friends with boys" kind of girls and accuse them of being pick-mes, but nobody is ready for the conversation about how that kind of attitude often originates in girls who have been ostracized, ridiculed, and traumatized by other women in their lives due to toxic feminine culture.
I imagine Vasco and Ludovica have a big painting (portrait but with two people) in Vasco's house (probably his father insisted of getting one of these, people used to do it in the old days, especially wealthy ones). While it's very serious and formal, in the way all these portraits were, it is also very intimate (at least it's implications). I imagine Machete just staring at it sometimes, feeling small while looking at the big painting. And sad, maybe jealous but I don't think he'd resent Ludovica. He, most of all, understands.
Something walks behind you. Something twists through your spine. Something that marks you, mars you-- something you can never be without. You bear a curse.
[2016 Malaysian Grand Prix, nico and lewis at a school children event in malaysia, merc's petronas home base, and lewis calls nico the other driver. the interview introduces nico as unbelievably fast.]
Nico: Happy to be here! Unbelievable is much better than being called 'the other driver.' Thank you for the very warm—
Lewis: He said that there's two drivers here so—
Nico: Don't worry, it's okay. I'm home. I won't take it personally. Well, thank you very muc—
thank you for posting about moo deng's treatment compared to fiona's. My friends love moo deng and i have only seen a couple pictures of her, so i thought they were funny in the same way a smear frame was funny: an awkward snapshot in the middle of moo deng playing or yawning. I never looked into it further than fanart or memes because well i didn't think to. your post made me realize there is always more to learn, as an aspiring naturalist, thank you.
Thank you for telling me this, it helps me feel better about posting it. She's a really cute little baby, I certainly don't doubt that! But I just hope they will just be more hands off with her in the future and leave her alone.
If they want to train voluntary husbandry behaviours and do proper desensisation that would be great. I'm so tired of seeing people say that they have to harass her because it helps her get ready for veterinary procedures...
If anything they're making vet procedures even more negative and stressful because so many interactions with humans have been her being disturbed while she's sleeping or eating, chased by them, smacked by them or just poked and prodded until she bites them.
I just hope people will use (1) crumb of common sense when they see that attempt at an explanation and learn what actual conditioning to handling looks like.
