I get that calling white lotus lbh a sticky little 'sheep' is a canon translation and stuck in the fandom now anyway, but I do feel the intended spirit of the original word wasn't the sheeple/dumb herd animal that's more common in the western world, but instead something actually conveying sweetness, innocence, purity and youth - lamb.
Famous for being utterly adorable and following around their mothers, gambolling in sunny meadows, curly white wool shining.
And NOW we can talk about black sheep/wolf in sheep's clothing metaphors.

I had the bright idea to sell my Taylor merch at an artist market thing (my friend curates them around Brooklyn and asked me to) and let me tell you there is NOTHING more embarrassing than being a Swiftie in public when no one else is

Finnie those tags --
What's the story?
OK WELL OK SO i have a bad habit of answering the door and then i'm too polite because i get stuck in the cycle of mimicking and i also have no spine
so one day this guy came to the door and he was like "are you registered to vote" which now that i think about it there wasn't an election on but i was like "oh no i don't think i am" and he said "i can register you no worries!!"
so i gave him my full name and my date of birth and then my national insurance number and he went "haha that's a nice easy one to remember" and i was like "it is!!" and i was excited that someone had noticed because i always think that!!
and then my husband came home and i was SO proud of myself like "hey guess what i'm registered to vote now so that's one less problem" and he was like "how did you do that?" because i don't like doing online forms usually without someone there to watch me and i was like "a man did it at the door" and he said "what man?" and i said "... the man" and he asked what credentials the man had and i said he had a lanyard and a clipboard and an ipad and my husband was like "... i have a lanyard and a clipboard and an ipad"
so now i'm not really supposed to open the door and tell people things about myself :3

I genuinely don’t understand character salters. Like, it’s been years why do you still care that this specific character has flaws. No one’s saying you have to like them.
Also it’s kinda embarrassing for you. Like, you’ve been spamming how much you hate this character in the character’s tags everyday, do you really think you won’t be fought on it? That people will agree when you compare this character with real life fascists… that’s so creepy to me. Live and let live… 😑

Foreman being like ‘I’m letting you know how far he is from human’ when talking to Chase and Cameron about House’s refusal to go to his father’s funeral
Wilson listening to House detail all the ways his father abused him and still insisting that he go to the funeral, to the extent of literally kidnapping him and holding his painkillers hostage to pressure him into going
WHY DOES NO ONE UNDERSTAND THAT HE OWES NO RESPECT TO HIS DEAD ABUSIVE FATHER
OR KINDNESS TO HIS MOTHER WHO LET IT HAPPEN

Hopping into your inbox about the college tuition thing: the cost is a big reason why academic performance is so stressed in high school. Better grades equals a better chance at getting a scholarship directly from your chosen college/university, which means paying less out of your own pocket.
But yeah...this is why the "broken college student" is such a trope in U.S. media. And why burnout in high school students is so prevalent. So fun :) I love it here :)
😭 that sucks omg. college students are broke here too but it's much easier to get your tuition fully paid off by the state. and even if u pay your own tuition it's... comparatively not as insane amount of money as in america. like yeah i fully wouldn't be able to afford it because i'm broke but looking at THOSE numbers it's practically nothing. what the fuckkkk i'm so sorry for you guys
