Just helped a 14-year-old get a new library card, after which she said "Do you want to see something cool I drew?" Of course I said yes. So she pulled a small canvas out of her bag on which she had drawn many many very good sharks in various poses. And then she proceeded to tell me about all the kinds of sharks she had drawn (I like sharks but am not good at identifying them beyond the really obvious ones like hammerheads) and shared all her feelings about how cool cookie cutter sharks are. (They are extremely cool.)

Absolutely top-tier library encounter. She is my favorite patron of today.

i've always been dogshit at pottery on a wheel because i have weak noodle arms and can't hold my hands firmly in place to center the clay but i finally realized the root issue was that my legs are SHORT since i have the limb/torso proportions of a dachshund and i couldn't brace my elbows on my legs, so i put bricks under my feet and now i can sort of do it!! i've tried to learn twice in the past from TALL people but had a revelation when i watched a medium size guy throwing.

The moral of the story is: don't give up, maybe you just need bricks

He lika da stingray

was just showing tadpoles to a child and asked "do you know what these are?" and he excitedly shouted "STINGRAYS!" I said that's a great guess because they are shaped a lot like stingrays, but I told him they're tadpoles and that they'll grow up to be a different animal that lives in the water around here, and "do you know what tadpoles turn into?" and his eyes lit up and he said "STRINGRAYS!"

"Sure, some people will lose some rights and privacy, but at least we're protecting the kids!"

When I was 14, I used to carry a flashdrive with TOR on it to bypass the school's internet safety filters so I could get on Facebook and play flash games. Kids are smarter than you want to think. You aren't protecting shit.

the exercise lady whose videos I follow says things like "Exercise is a celebration of what you can do, not punishment for what you ate" and "Think of some small thing you've wanted to change, and try making that change just for today so you don't stress yourself out over a major change" and "The brain craves blood"

i think when we used to point out that a story didn't need a sex scene what we meant was "this story reduces its women to mere sex objects and gives them no interiority so the sex scenes are gratuitous and geared towards the male gaze" it wasn't the sex that bothered us per se it was the objectification of female characters while givig them little to no consequence to the overall story but nowadays people mean "sex is icky and gross and has no merit to ever be portrayed in our arts which should be good and pure and never ever make ME feel discomfort" and it's like. i bet a bowl of unfrosted flakes looks real good to you rn

i myself am a person who will throw around dude/bro/man like i'm trying to bring surf back in style, but sometimes when i see people vehemently arguing that these terms are entirely gender neutral i do wanna gently take their hand like. okay but have you considered the societal and histortical reasons why masculine language and gender neutral language have so much overlap. can we acknoweldge how traditionally masculine terms are treated as a default and what that means. or are you gonna be weird about it.

This legitimately hurts my heart
