As annoying as the "autism is when you really like vocaloid, yippee!" cutesy-ification of autism over social media is, I don't think it will ever be as harmful to autistic people as the people who use faker accusations to pressure undiagnosed or self-diagnosed autistic people into getting a formal diagnosis in the current political climate.

Things end. That's all. Everything ends. And it's always sad. But everything begins again too, and that's always happy. Be happy.

This 1837 tome of Byron’s works could be worth it entirely for the footnotes. They are peppered with gossip, fawning literary criticism and the weirdest biographical details from Byron’s journals, letters, and accounts of people who knew him. Here’s a random selection, because it’s impossible to read them all.

Shakespeare Fun Fact

postal systems and railways are so good. a postal system is like a computer made of people. you hand someone a box, and can be assured that, somehow, after a week, a completely unrelated person will hand it to your friend. they look at the adress you wrote and figure out where it needs to go, then they never see it again. a hundred people pass it between one another, building up order and structure out of our world. technology is amazing. a train is made by people living in the same mud as a million years ago, we just slowly learned and passed on more knowledge about that mud. we found a way, over time, without changing any of the rules of the world around us, to hammer tracks into the ground, to make networks of steel and signalboxes, and we could do it again if we had to. we somehow figured out the rules that existence itself follows and we applied those back on itself. it's all so amazing when you stop and think about it!!
