I do often think about how the origin of “he would not fucking say that” was in reference to a post which depicted Cartman SouthPark responding politely when asked for his pronouns
meme phrases are so mobile and versatile and that’s really really beautiful but i’m always thinking about the first “she x on my y til i z” being “she ebbin on my neezer til i scrooge” and the first “fork found in kitchen” coming from a tweet about sehun from exo being spotted at a gay bar. like sometimes you just utterly nail it the very first time and no variation of the joke is going to be better.
Ireland is coming to the end of a three year pilot of Basic Income for Artists.
2000 artists received €325 a week for three years, and every euro paid to participants resulted in society receiving €1.39 in return.
Artists’ earnings from their art increased, there were more cultural activities and events and there were, unsurprisingly, huge leaps in participants’ psychological wellbeing.
My desktop wallpaper cycles between these two images so every 10 minutes I am overwhelmed by the loss of my horse or overcome by the fear of its return.
the thing that really cheeses my cake about flies getting in my house is they clearly don’t want to be there anyway. like at least the ants trying to steal cereal from my pantry had a goal and a plan. you are just here because you’re too stupid to use a window twice
A cat is a small creature in the middle of the food chain that is fully aware that you are a very large thing that could stomp its head in at any moment and yet it chooses to rest its tiny little head on your leg for a nap and spreads out on the floor near you exposing its belly and its most sensitive organs. It brings dead mice and bugs to you to share food.
Don’t you get it? This tiny thing trusts you. It wants to help you too. It licks your leg thinking that it’s helping. It kneads on you to find comfort. It shares its body warmth with you in the cold and gives you your space in the heat. It hisses at other mammals it sees outside including other cats in an effort to protect its family.
Cats love you so so much. But they will keep trying to eat plastic.
my pharmacy called me because I asked when my Adderall would be available and they were like “it says no refills” and I was like “are you sure? I talked to my psychiatrist a few days ago and she said she called one in” and they were like “no. you need to call her.” and I was like “can you double check for me, pretty please?” and the lady (not putting me on hold) had a 5 minute long conversation with another pharmacist about how to check if there were refills available and then was like “okay, it’ll be ready by 12.”
like I get that people are new at their job sometimes and sometimes there are new operating systems but why the hell did you need to call me? lol
