"you know that feeling that you get when you're walking down the stairs and you overestimate the amount of stairs and you feel, just, pure terror? i do that, but like, when i'm not wearing my glasses and i try to push them up but my finger just keeps going, i uh feel like i'm going to fall over" - pat gill, an incredibly relatable human being

my favourite trope is when both people understand that they like each other but it’s still unsaid between them and they’re not quite 100% sure the other likes them back so they keep having awkward-flirty moments/interactions and don’t know what to do after it happens so they just ,,, look at each other for a moment before changing the subject…and then it happens again

The other issue for librarians (mlis librarian here with 5 years in public libraries) is that people come to us and ask "Can you give me the newest James Patterson book?" And they want one specific book but don't really know the series name (in their defense, series names are hard and I mess them up a lot) and defo don't know the plot. They saw it somewhere, maybe the newspaper? And the problem is. That bc of the ghostwriting and everything. He has usually published several books recently and it's a guessing game to find the right one.
yesterday one of my coworkers came in saying ‘did you know the president is giving James Patterson a medal’ and we all started yelling

I love when kids say stuff that's obviously what their parents say. Like "no no no it's not a concern" that's what a parent says while cleaning up a mess. So the kid learns that's what you say. "he doesn't have manners" is such a perfect example of a parent teaching "we don't push people because we have manners" child psychology and how their brains develop is fascinating. I knew a good bit from college (psych major) but my best friend just had a baby and another has a 3 year old nephew and holy shit. Seeing these little ones grow is incredible.
The two year-old is now a solid two and a half. Just now, he was sitting on the couch playing with his pretend flip phone and he frowned and said “for gods sake. My battery is empty.”
The other day at breakfast I asked him if he was going to eat any more of his oatmeal and he said “no, I think I’m just gonna move on with my life.”

people on tumblr tend to be pretty good about the whole “you should pay artists thing” but i just want to put out there: that includes fibre artists
i can’t count the number of times i’ve been knitting or embroidering something and someone is like “oh can you make me one?” and then they get offended when i tell them they’d have to pay me.
real talk: nice yarn/wool is expensive. sewing machines are expensive. for every handmade skirt or stuffed animal you see online there are at least a half-dozen prototypes in the creator’s closet that can’t be sold.
and that’s not even getting into the time spent on these projects. i have some things i’ve probably spent in excess of 100 hours on. i can’t even fathom making a living wage knitting stuff, because nobody would ever pay that much.
tl:dr; fibre artists deserve to be paid for their time and skill just like visual artists and if you can “buy something just like that at walmart for $5″ please just do that and stop wasting our time

Thinking about how the cinematography and lighting in the scene where hungover Harley Quinn buys an egg sandwich, and goes through the heartbreak of losing it, is better and more moving than 99% of cinema
