How to visit an art museum with someone who isn't used to visiting art museums:

Two social media posts by @pan_juho (Translated from Japanese):

"I love going to art museums, but when I go with someone who's not used to them, if I say, 'If you were a great thief, tell me later which one you'd steal,' they end up looking the exhibits pretty seriously, and that makes me happy.

"Whether you steal something you like or something that seems valuable -> it opens up endless conversation based on what vou liked about it or where you saw value in it, so it's also great as an easy icebreaker for chats after visiting the museum."

Listen, if you’re not happy single, you won’t be happy in a relationship either, happiness comes from picking a new hobby and then buying all the things to start that hobby then finding the perfect little storage container for those things and then putting that storage container in the spare room

This is a bad sign imo. My parents were hugely involved in the indie comics boom of the late 90’s early 2000’s and special edition collectors covers becoming a bigger and bigger part of their publishers income was a foreboding sign that they were appealing to a dedicated but shrinking fan base.

You have to care about kids who aren't "yours." You live in a society, and that society extends to children. You have to fight for trans kids, even if your child isn't trans. You have to care about vaccinations and disability even if you're childless. They aren't property.

Quick PSA for all your medieval linen coifs, up until the 15th century, no loose laces in the sources! ☝️

The drake meme, refusing a head wearing a linen white coif with its laces untied, accepting a head wearing the same coif with properly knotted laces. Somehow drake is wearing a 14th century armor.
