i like to think the death star was built with asbestos. not because they had to. just because palpatine's sith career requires him to keep up a yearly death quota and office life made him lazy

the thing about trying to reason with like HARDCORE astrology people is that we're coming from just two totally different places, ie, they think that I have some kind of aversion to admitting that the planets hold sway over the choices human beings make on Earth and I know that that's not how fucking planets work

me: just so you know that pool is not big enough for them at all and they also don't have any foliage to hide within in order to feel safe and by the way you obviously haven't been feeding them enough if they're ready to rend the flesh from my bone, the water looks scummy, and your pulley system looks extremely unsafe and none of your goons are wearing PPE despite the jagged spikes and open leaky pipes and-

The thing is, even if you were lucky and your parents taught you how to clean, they probably didn't teach you how to clean the stuff you clean stuff with, like brushes, mops, sponges, rags, and so on. Or how to clean your cleaning appliances, like a dish washer, clothes washing machine, and clothes dryer and its ducts (if you have a ducted dryer), or a carpet cleaner, vacuum, Or how to clean up clean messes, like spilled bleach or detergent.

My parents threw away all of these things (even the vacuum cleaners and the dryer) when they got too dirty to function, because no one even told them THAT they could be cleaned. Cost them thousands of dollars over the years.

All I'm saying is that cleaning is not intuitive, and not knowing how to clean is not a moral failing, but it is something you can learn.

I'm going to reblog this post with resources for learning how to clean things and how to clean cleaning things (I'm not at my desk at the moment). If you have any favorites, please feel free to add them in too!

Too many people think that the problem with psych wards is that they don't have enough beds/funding and not like. How they have the right to deny the people who end up in them the most basic autonomy

Fandoms are like "oh, these two characters are meant to be together because they know each other so well" yeah, mostly on account of the fact that they each have one (1) discernible personality trait.
