I will be okay. Not because everything is fine, but because I am surprisingly difficult to destroy. Says Skeletor who notices being hard to destroy sure doesn’t mean a bunch of asshoes don’t keep trying.

I don’t like people enough to be a polycule. What do you mean we’re ALL gonna live together???? In MY home???? The reward for love is… multiple roommates??? Nah. I want to fall in love with one man and I’d prefer he had his own apartment across the hallway.

LOL, well, damn. Okay, Merriam-Webster.
Merriam-Webster's official account on Twitter tweeted this: "Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.? Because we gave them that L in 1776."

they are on Threads fighting to the death over whether or not it is ableist for an author to use the word “scrying" (people might not know the definition!). how beautiful. people staring into their phones and getting so emotional over “scrying.” perhaps there really is magic in reflective surfaces!
