My life has derailed, and the carriages I pulled along are scattered, ruined. My life passengers are sobbing . Staring intensely, all disappointed. All, "You've ruined everything" So I walk away from it all, In any direction, Until the sobs fade, like the memory of track I was on

Is there a longitudinal study showing what happened to kids who got a Blue Peter Badge? Did the peak too soon, then hit rock bottom? Or are they the super rich?

Could everyone have their email sign offs as "Chaos is the only constant" then feedback after a week , please? I'm intrigued if it would make society more chaotic.

Imagine your brain was wired like: "I don't understand it, nor will I try to, so I oppose it." Then I think it becomes easier to understand why society is as it is.

People, Go give Margaret Attwood some appreciation. She's a personal favourite of mine, not just as a writer, as a character too. Also , check out her Desert Island Discs on BBC Radio 4. Marvellous. margaretatwood.substack.com?r=29oydu&utm...

This needs to be discussed very seriously. SO, would a warrant signed by a judge, not allow the vampire law enforcement officer to enter the property? Is it not a legal loophole enshrined in vampire customs....or something?

MADNESS. Imagine being able to get a highspeed train from NY-LA or something. Why does America lack such ambition? I remember starting out in the job market and relying on trains to get me places. Connectivity is better for the economy - if you want to think like that.

One of TVs best characters
Two stills from the television show Bob's Burgers showing Tina writing in her diary. Text reads
"'Dear Diary, how are you? I am fine.'
'(Sighs) okay. I'm not fine. You got me. God, you're good."

A person with an American accent saying things like: What is all of this malarkey? or That was quite the kerfuffle. Is astonishingly amusing to me. Man, I'm so simple.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a guy in his kitchen is blinded by an otherworldly light beaming through an open window. The refrigerator door is swung open and a tupperware container of food is drifting out towards the light in the window. The guy shouts, “NO!!” Panel 2: the guy is viewed from above, sprinting through a field bathed in an eerie light. He’s chasing the Tupperware of lasagna which soars farther away overhead. He shouts, “No, you bastards!!” Panel 3: two grey aliens are in an office break room. One making tea asks his seated coworker, “what’s for lunch?” With a mouthful of food, the other replies, “leftover lasagna.” The first one says, “looks good.”

A 16-bit pixel art style video game screenshot shows Donald Trump standing in a stylized version of the Oval Office next to a small fireplace. He is positioned on a stack of papers, while a text box at the bottom of the screen reads, "There are 31242309 Epstein files remaining." The room features a large wooden desk on a red rug with the presidential seal, gold curtains, and two American flags. To the right, an outdoor grassy area contains two golden statues of Trump and Epstein holding hands in a dancing pose. Various portraits of Trump hang on the walls, and Whiskey Pete stands near the windows.

I became tuned into feminism by accidentally listening to @radio4rne.bsky.social : Woman's Hour on the way to work every day. I kept listening to the voices, the stories, and experiences that were beyond anything i'd even considered. More men need to be exposed to what women experience daily.

It's insane to me that the majority of the demographic that supports fascist politics, are also the ones with the strongest memories of what fascism unleashed, is capable of. They are the most outspoken about heroic WW2 veterans, yet yield to the re-emergence of fascism with open arms. #cooked

(2/2) and the constant polarisation engineered so that we never seek unity, thus enshrining the status quo. Will we ever see past these devices of division and ever find a common unity? Or is it too late? Are we cooked?

(1/2) Listening to #RedRising and hearing Darrow of Lykos talk about how the powerful Golds, make it so that each other colour competes with one another, rather than finding solidarity in their shared oppression, made me reflect on our own reality.

Brutal.
A WHOLE CIVILIZATION
WILL DIE TONIGHT
My son needs lunch, and I have to put his backpack together, but a whole civilization will die tonight, so I'm wondering if they've closed their schools.
Like, a snow day, maybe, except instead of snow it's
"keep your children home so if you die, you die together" — instead of "well open back up once the plows have cleared" it's
"we don't know if we'll be here tomorrow, hold your babies tight."
It's just "talk" I'm told, which I've been told before.
"It's how the president makes his deals." But I've never heard anyone talk about other human beings this way, and I'm not certain I can look my son in the eyes if we all agree to stomach it one more time.
A civilization will die tonight, but as I zip up his backpack and kiss him off to school I think: if this is what we call leadership then I'm not entirely sure ours isn't already dead.

this is my nephew's homework and i'm gonna cry
Elementary school homework with the alphabet at the top. The question says: imagine you are a wizard with a magic wand. What kind of spells would you cast? What magical things would you do?

A child's handwritten answer: If I was a wizard I would make life easy. because there will be no wars and no crimenals. I will disapear every bad guy in the world so no one will get hurt.

There is a drawing of a blue sky, a yellow sun, a black wizard with a wand in his hand, and a crowd of people. There's a caption bubble with the wizard saying no wars, and a caption bubble over the crowd that says everybody cheers
