Humans, eh?Basically, a collection of things I think, enjoy, obsess over, consider, reconsider, and find ridiculous. I love words and playing with words. Puns, alliteration, and oxymorons are my favorites. Literature! I use literature to guide my thinking. I use literature to process things. Donne gets me through grief, Shakespeare gets me through anything, Keats reminds me life is too short to waste,I love it when the topic is just right and the ideas flow so easily. It rarely happens, but it’s nice to think about.I believe that it's true that the simplest things in life are what make it so enjoyable. So I'm making this tumblr to share these things with others.Love Shakespeare, theater, Broadway, podcasts (particularly narrative fiction/humor podcasts). Things I might post about often include Good Omens, Our Flag Means Death, The Sandman, Terry Pratchett/Discworld, British panel shows, Doctor Who, Slings and Arrows, Murderbot, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Greek mythology (particularly these modern retellings we have a wealth of at the moment), Derry Girls, John and Hank Green books, Dimension 20, Welcome to Night Vale, Victoriocity, Wooden Overcoats, any show by the No Bad Ideas crew (Wolf 359, Time Bombs, Unseen, Zero Hours), Starkid, Overly Sarcastic Productions, Tin Can Bros, Shipwrecked Comedy, EOS 10, Heroics, Staged, The Thrilling Adventure Hour, Threedom!, Beyond the Bastards, Hadestown, Sondheim, tick, tick.. Boom, Taskmaster, Schitt’s Creek. Not a comprehensive list, by any means. Header cross stitch was stitched by me, design by Vivsters on Etsy, highly recommend their patterns!

thank god for the mythbusters though because it used to be that whenever i knew i had insomnia i’d just kind of accept it and stay up doing whatever until my morning classes and spend the day feeling like shit
but then they did an episode where they established that even just fucking laying there for a half hour, not even sleeping just laying there and not even for an hour, makes a significant difference and you’ll feel way better
it has made a huge difference in my life to know that it’s okay if i can’t fall asleep, it takes a lot of the pressure off and ironically helps me fall asleep better

imagine the most meanspirited, unlikeable, rude, bitter, self centered, negative person you can think of. not a rapist, not a murderer, not an abuser. just a charmless, tactless, dyed in the wool asshole you wouldn't want to spend two seconds with. now assume they get sick, not with the flu, but with a long term, serious illness that limits their ability to provide for themself. a society in which that person is left to die alone because nobody likes them on a personal level is a failed society.

You know for the first 18-ish years of your life everyone your age is mostly doing the same things and then all of a sudden every year for the rest of your life somebody your age is getting divorced while somebody else just learned what a leaf is and you have no idea what’s going on or what you’re supposed to be doing

So I've got this friend whose nervous because she's trans and dating this guy who she hasn't told yet because they've only been on a two dates. For this story let's call the friend Jane and the guy she was dating Jason. Happy ending don't worry.
So I tell Jane to bring her boy over to a bbq I'm having and she can tell him she's trans at my place surrounded by queer and trans people who love her and will support her if he ends up being awful.
She waits till the end of the bbq to tell him the news, by which point the rest of us have learned that Jason is a kind, friendly, empathetic, hard working, dummy. So we sit down, all of us a little worried about this gym bro's reaction when she tells him she's trans, and that she understands if he doesn't want to keep dating her it's no big deal.
He's baffled, so we explain what trans is, and after the disclosure that she hasn't had bottom surgery yet...
"Oh you have a dick?"
"... yeah."
He look's around at the room full of people with baited breath, his clearly a little afraid girl friend says
"Oooohhhh! I get it! You think- don't worry Babe! Watch this!"
And ya'll this man jumps up, runs into the kitchen and returns with one of the bratwurst we had for grilling and proceeds to tilt his head back, put it down his throat, hold it in his mouth for a moment, and spit it up without even a whisper of a gag and then looks around at the group absolutely beaming with pride.
My mans saw his worried girlfriend and her support network and thought to him self "Oh they don't think I can't please my girl, but I'll show them!"
