what fucking hell dimension are y’all blogging from

When I was a kid, my mother used to make a point of teaching me and my brother outside of schooling. She came from an incredibly progressive family, and has always been a big believer that ignorance always leads to a lot of the evil we see in the world

Basically, we’d do…what I guess you call additional study, after school? Which might sound tedious or bad, but we loved it, even my brother who didn’t enjoy school or academics and had a serious learning disability.

We used to use some old encyclopaedias we thrifted, but nowadays you could use Wiki or something similar. We’d open the book, choose a random topic, and spend the next month or so learning about it.

My mother would often have it so we had a few different things we were learning about in month: a place/culture, a religion, a historical event, a person, etc. My brother and I had those cheap, A4 spiral books, and we’d go to the public library and research, write down little notes, draw diagrams. We’d do activities like paint maps of new places or new animals we’d learned about.

I’ve been getting back into this again, and I cannot stress enough how enriching it is. It’s easier now with the internet available, but I still have an A4 book I jot little notes in. It’s alleviated a lot of boredom and restlessness. I can highly recommend.

On the topic of knitting in mash as someone who knits i wanna talk about how often characters are seen holding skeins for each other as they roll them into balls. Because let me tell you hand rolling a skein without a yarn winder can take ages depending on the thickness of the yarn. And its such a perfect casual act for this show because not only does it demonstrate the inherent boredom of the base but it ALSO demonstrates the inherent love that they have for each other that theyre willing to sit like that and hold up the yarn so perfectly 'cause if youre not careful that shit can tangle and fast. Its such a minor, simple detail but I love it so much. Also the fact that its often RED yarn? Like theyre holding red strings of fate? Hellooooo

I have pores. Humans have pores. I have fingerprints. Humans have fingerprints. My chemical nutrients are like your blood. If you prick me, do I not……. leak?

Please tell me that y'all won't go back to tiktok once Trump gets whatever nefarious concessions he wants from the company and "saves" it. Like, you all NEED to stay gone. Stay on Xiaohongshu or move to other platforms or create a new one or whatever, but don't go back to whatever Trump-appeasement monstrosity TikTok is about to become. Don't do it.
