the fact that shakespeare was a playwright is sometimes so funny to me. just the concept of the "greatest writer of the English language" being a random 450-year-old entertainer, a 16th cent pop cultural sensation (thanks in large part to puns & dirty jokes & verbiage & a long-running appeal to commoners). and his work was made to be watched not read, but in the classroom teachers just hand us his scripts and say "that's literature"

just...imagine it's 2450 A.D. and English Lit students are regularly going into 100k debt writing postdoc theses on The Simpsons screenplays. the original animation hasn't even been preserved, it's literally just scripts and the occasional SDH subtitles.txt. they've been republished more times than the Bible

Caste System: Series-Perception & Fact (Part 1).

Today, I’m going to be speaking on the Varnas in Varna-Ashrama Dharma, or the so-called “Caste System”, which is controversial and drives passions into overdrive. I’d urge that you keep a open mind and not let preconceived notions or for that matter generalizations color your judgement. I present this to you here, via my website, www.sumirnagar.com. This will also be available in Video format on…

Social fabric of india is in a state of war

Nation of hopes and a nation of diversity,Getting narrated these day by WhatsApp university.Where are we heading is anybody's guessWe have to show great resolve to avoid the social mess.I see a bike from the opposite direction, wondering what's on his mind,Their confidence in doing wrong, I guess own failures make us blind.The audacity of some car drivers to again drive in wrong lane,Do they…

"I get panicky. But I make- I make promises and I will. also lie."

Unfortunately in this scenario i know and understand exactly what Amanda is talking about. Yk sometimes in social situations you just. Panic and say shit. Say you're a chef. Invite strangers to your house. And then what are you gonna do? Not follow through? ASKFJSHFB

Anyway match made in heaven for her AND her husband to be like this. Probably not great if they want to avoid these scenarios, but kind of sweet that they're similar in this way.

Oh, I forgot to use this picture anywhere! It's been an exhausting, EXHAUSTING spring, including the painting, including the paneling, including a trip to nj to retrieve a pile of furniture, including way too much crochet for human hands to safely endure. But the guest room is coming together! The lips are probably getting evicted to the next guest room over (music/manga room), because the Horrors have faded enough that I'm itching for my next paint job, and I think it's going to be a pink and red palette. Just having one vibrant room in my house makes me so happy already, I simply HAVE to continue

Actually, you know what, have these curio cabinets too, because I'm delighted with how they turned out. More gifted old furniture finally giving me a dignified residence for my knickknacks. Pls note the tasteful heavy bookbinding objects on the bottom shelves definitely because they're pretty and not because I almost tipped these things over more than once before getting them anchored to the walls

I'm just having a lazy sunday thinking about all of the ways that the earth looks after us for free and yet we've bastardized it all with capitalism.

There is literally nothing stopping anyone from doing most things for literally zero cost.

For the entirety of human existence we've had the knowledge and skills to be entirely self sufficient. Individuals or groups could just leave on long trips and be fine. But now we've been stripped of every capability that we genuinely believe most things are too difficult to make or grow.

We've been pushed into pens far too small for our nature and we wonder why we're sick physically, mentally and socially.

"Yeah, I like questions and I don't love answers, or l'm always suspicious of answers. I think good art asks more questions than it answers. Particularly art that deals with the human experience, when it's done right."

the way that i wanted to add this to that post of mine until i realized this wasnt a fucking george quote and i am actually starting to lose my mind mixing these old men up and i had to settle with what he said about exploring forgiveness with jaime like 20 year ago 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

how many more people could have been child prodigies had they only been born into a rich family?

Someday I want to just. Collect as many ENTPs as I can and stick us into a group chat on whatever platform and just watch the chaos unfold.

Unfortunately that would require actually talking to people online. Which I chronically Cannot Do

@lee-sol gets 🤳 + 12 for:

ㅤbyan's romantic partner

ㅤit's not somewhere you ever thought you'd be, in a committed relationship with one person. in love. you've always been alone and you thought you'd always stay that way, but here he is... caring about you, even though he was never supposed to. you let yourself take a risk and, for once, it's paid off. for once, it didn't end in the abandonment you're accustomed to. instead, you're... happy. you're not alone. you feel like a real person. he makes you feel like a real person for the first time in your life and you know that he loves you just as much as you love him, and it... still scares you, sometimes. you still don't think you deserve him, nor all that he's done for you, but you're so overwhelmingly grateful for it all the same.ㅤㅤ(temp)

"man. i'm so tired. i feel like i can't do anything selfship related. is it because my energy's been sapped from family visiting and everyone wanting to do ~summer activities~ nonstop? am i so in my head about "getting ren's story right without stepping over any lines" that i've backed myself into a perfectionist corner? is the world just going to shit so hard that i can't have one (1) minute of escape on this blog before going back to working through the political hellscape we're in? god even trying to make this plushie pattern is killing me even though i want to hold my guy So Badly AUGH."

/finishes the plushie pattern after trying multiple body bases and literally buying a japanese ebook about plushie face and hair design/

"actually what if i lived forever and spent all of that time making an army of these fuckers to swim in? what then?"
