Sometimes reading Arthuriana feels like reading Alice in Wonderland.

“Well,” said Alice, “these are a dreadfully strange assortment of objects!”

“They all symbolize different aspects of Our Lord’s martyrdom,” said the Fisher King, casting a line into his teacup.

“Indeed. I am sure everything symbolizes something else, for if everything was only itself I should be very confused. Might I ask what the point of the bleeding lance is?”

Alice regretted asking the question as soon as she had done so, for she saw the pun that would likely be made about the word point. Instead, however, the room erupted in applause and shouts of “The Grail! She has achieved the Grail!”

The next castle she visited, Alice resolved to herself as the inhabitants of this one danced for joy, would be more sensible.

Zero interactions? Tumblr, are you ok?

Good

Still not paying that much.

Don't buy games at launch. Wait until an opinion has formed and there's a solid sale.

oh my god they brought the price down

@comicaurora Found this at a local Barnes and Noble. I would attack this immediately if not for the fact I already preordered and have a funny idea for an Erin sticker

True. But I've yet to come across a cult hinged on people not getting algebra. Was it really worth giving kids f(x)= shaped nightmares?

You see I too often sat in school classes and thought “when am I ever going to need this, I’m never going to be an engineer, I’m never gonna be a scientist, I’m never gonna be a linguist” and then I grew up and it turns out a lot of bigots and cults and scams and grifts hinge their entire business model on you just. Not knowing what a protein is or some shit

The internet in my house is gone. Great...

They are not even that much concrete. They are mostly steel. That's why a 9/11 brought them down.

i feel like we don't appreciate these days how much the twin towers sucked, like, design-wise

they were contemporarily hated for just being these giant grey monoliths

like there probably could've been an easier way to get rid of them, but they probably needed to go either way

Thank god for the block function. Blocking "ai_generated" on rule 34 catches almost everything.

all politics about ai aside if you use it to create fanwork you're just a fucking dweeb

Libs will tie themselves into brezeln before admitting that some people are just assholes.

I don't know myself how to rationalize that with my belief in the inherent goodness of humanity, but I'd rather live with that philosophcal dilemma than taking away the agency of fascists. Every fascist at one point decided to be an asshole.

stopppp saying that people are becoming fascists because they got brain damage from covid or vaping or whatever the fuck that is like the actual fascist viewpoint

someone in the UK threw eggs at Charles and was arrested and has been banned from openly carrying eggs in public and has since been sent death threats but their statement on the matter was so fucking good

It is funny that Mony Dick gets described as this tight revenge thriller about Ahab, when in reality that barely shows up.

Depending on where you live, it may not cool down outside until the early morning. But when it does, open every window and door. And if you'll have to get up at 3am, it will be worth it.

summer. go away

Close the windows, it's not doing anything. Shutter all blinds if you have them. Put a damp, cool towel in your neck, that will help.

English borrows a lot of words, german just makes new ones. Veterinarian? That's a Tierarzt, an animal physician.

I often forget English is a Germanic language until I start studying other Germanic languages. Looking at a lot of Old Norse vocabulary rn and it’s like. Ah yes, the blóthús. The hús where blóts are performed.

There's also a basque movie about the Smith and the Devil story, it's called Errementari, by Paul Urkijo Alijo
