Come with me to the amazing Wideford Hill Neolithic chambered cairn on Orkney. Access is via a ladder but there's a torch provided.

Dear lordt, every word a truth. I didn't get my diagnosis until Age Grown, like 5+ years ago, and I'm still wrestling down a thousand demons named Lazy and Inadequate and Wasted Potential. None of whom should have ever been assigned to torture me.

Ireland's artist basic income returned €1.39 for every €1 spent. They made it permanent. South Korea just announced plans to follow. Now Scotland too.

PLEASE read Magica Riot and Magica Riot Full Bloom so I can have someone to gush to about them! The Magica Riot series is (shockingly) gayer than Kara has advertised (complimentary)! There is also running gag across the books regarding a van that had me DYING when it came full circle.

I always bring in advertisements on the first day of my Intro to Art History class to convey how powerful images are and how empowering it is to be able to articulate verbally what they’re doing. The visual violence of the Converse ad is such that I wouldn’t even dare to show it in that class.

yes, they did. It looks to me as though the discrimination may have been connected to something real or visible/significant in, like, the 13th C, but continued for another **600 years** thru force of habit. I consider the cagot experience proof that it's not in the nature of bigotry to fade away

Things you can do without a gallbladder, part 1: - Spend two hours putting out the recycling, and just be sweaty afterward, instead of spending the afternoon in bed for the crime of standing up and washing dishes for 15 minutes - Concentrate on a class or training for a whole morning! Wow.

there is a certain type of personality that simply loves to be the bearer of bad news but perpetually couches it in "being honest" or "the only adult in the room". it is because they enjoy hurting people but want to be able to maintain the moral high ground. after all, they're just the messenger!
