spiders have got to figure out contracting I need to be able to call my local spiders union and be like "hey can you send a guy out for a few days the fruit flies are back" and then pay it in spider currency. I'll learn the conversion rates. I'll be generous with my rounding. please.

Haru Urara has that Harry DuBois fragmented mind shit going on at all times but every voice in her head is equally as sweet and lovely as the next one.

They put men on the moon? Not very impressive. Bunnies have been up there since antiquity making delicious mochi for all.

I think there's something about linguistics that explodes your brain because like, there are one hundred thousand different weird grammatical do-dads a language can have, and naively you look at them and go "oh these must be like related to culture or ideology or whatever, or have different effects on people's communication in this or that language, or the kinds of stories that are told, or" and then you learn a little more and it's like "well no they're kind of all just thrown together in a bunch of seemingly random combinations with historically contingent explanations, this language has polypersonal verb agreement and that language has classifier morphemes and it doesn't really seem to Mean anything at all" and then you learn a little more and it's like "with significantly high frequency languages with verb-first word order tend to describe possession using an 'it is at him' construction rather than a 'he has it' construction, this is true in multiple disconnected regions of the world, and nobody has any idea why" and you kind of shrug and go well rip to anyone who thinks they can understand society or the human mind I guess.

Well, you know what they say; Rome was built in a day, and if you're going any slower than that, you're basically fucked with no hope at all

guy translating a poem encounters a word and agonizes and agonizes over it before finally deciding it’s so enmeshed in its unique historical and literary context that it’s truly untranslatable. moves on to the next word, agonizes, agonizes, decides it’s untranslatable too. goes through the entire poem like this. in the end only one word actually ends up rendered in english

a common misconception is that a revolution is built by years of painstakingly raising class consciousness among the masses while at the same time building up a party capable of taking leadership during a revolutionary crisis. nothing could be further from the truth. a revolution is built by making social media posts calling for a general strike over and over until one day it just happens

my buddy brings her angel girlfriend to the function, I spend the whole time refusing to look at or even acknowledge her existence, because I am a staunch atheist and dont believe in that nonsense. she starts to throw things at my head to get my attention and between volleys of marbles and kitchen utensils I grunt "swamp gas. aurora borealis. probably a weather balloon.youre seeing things"

it's so sicka nd twisted how niccolo machiavelli wrote a book that tried to realistically recount the brutality of 15th century power struggles and his name is now a synonym for Suepr Evil Fucked Up Guy but thomas hobbes wrote a 688-page supervillain manifesto and he gets to have his name associated with an adorable whimsical stuffed tiger forever
