Happy pride month to my dad. When I came out as bi to him, this man googled what it ment, look at me and said "ohh. Yeah. You get that from me. You'd have far more siblings of I only shaged women." And went right back to his work emails.

as someone with a bachelor’s degree in english, i am inexpressibly tired of people telling me to get highly specific jobs that often require highly specific degrees. “just go write for a magazine!” you need a journalism degree for that. “just teach!” you need a teaching certificate, and also fuck you. “just go work at a tutoring place!” tutoring children with learning disabilities, which make up the majority of the clientele at those places, requires not only a teaching certificate but a specialized master’s degree. “just go work at a library!” you need a master’s degree in library science to be a librarian. it is actually a highly skilled and extremely competitive field. you don’t just “go work at a library,” you train for years in the vain hope that you will get one of handful of available jobs. “just go work at a library.” the nerve. the unmitigated gall. “just go work at a library.” ugh.

truly never getting over the greatest loss streaming services caused: the disappearance of DVD special features. behind the scenes, bloopers, deleted scenes, commentaries, I will never forget you, I will never stop missing you.

They should invent a method of asking for reassurance that nobody secretly hates you that doesn't make people secretly hate you.

"It doesn't help your credibility to exaggerate, most employers wouldn't literally work you to death" like, I used to work in distribution. If booking a truck driver for back to back shifts until they fall asleep at the wheel, crash, and die counts as being worked to death, I have personally met employers who've worked employees to death and gotten away with a slap on the wrist. It may not be universal, but it's a hell of a lot more common than a lot of us would prefer to think.

Do you ever think about how fundamentally, Crowley and Aziraphale’s jobs would have set them up to respectively see the best and the worst of humanity, even though at first glance it seems like it should be the opposite?

Crowley got to meet Jesus. Yeah, to tempt him, but he was hanging out with Mr. Be Kind To Each Other. You don’t have to tempt a person who’s already sinning. Crowley’s job may have been to make the good people worse, but it was still to interact with the good people.

Aziraphale, on the other hand, was trying to call people to Good. You don’t do that to people who are already Good. You have to go to the people who are cruel, who are mean, who abuse their power, and try to save them. People like Gabriel. He went to places that needed to be reminded that good existed in the world, because it was just so bad.

And we can see the outcome! Aziraphale is used to handling assholes like Shadwell who throw slurs at him. Crowley is, at his heart, an optimist. Aziraphale has gotten mixed up with Nazis and the mafia! Crowley interacts with sweet ladies running cabarets!

Idk, do y’all already think about that, or is this brain-flipping for anyone else?

As part of her social media detox this girl on YouTube made herself do one hour of understimulating tasks every day and she just counted rice for 60 minutes straight because its no different from doomscrolling in terms of wasted time
