I feel weird about using the term gay for historical figures bc sexuality is made up and the ancient Romans didn’t see gay the same way we do, but at the same time Vergil liked men.
Like you get me? Using the term gay makes me feel weird because it puts historical context which doesn’t exist on vergil but also the vast majority of people who want to talk about queer history don’t have the patience to actually read about the way sexuality was conceptualized in the ancient word so I end up using the word gay to avoid the joke “and historians will call them close friends” but like. Gay didn’t exist the same way we see it today so when I say that I’m being wrong and reductionist.
I hate that thing some people do where it's like. "I left my wallet on the table to see if you'd say anything" or "I wanted to see if you'd wash the car if I stopped doing it"
Cause like
I dont know about anyone else
But I am perpetually hovering three inches above the strong subconscious belief that everyone knows what they're doing at all times except me, so if you change your normal patterns and I notice, then I will assume it is an intentional choice with a thought-out plan behind it and I will avoid interfering
And if I don't notice, because I won't, because why would I, because not much bothers me and if you don't say anything to indicate you are bothered then how would I KNOW
Oh shit I just realized I can post the "Gaussian Blur Wizard That Gaussian Blurs You" here
this. Just this. All my friends are in the get married have kids stage of life and I am just like: have a lumpy quilt, it is a little lopsided but full of love.
After much deliberation I've decided I'm gonna start making quilts and I'm going to make sloppy messy quilts for everyone I love then slowly but surely I'll be making beautiful quilts for everyone I love and I will have a fucking ball along the way and your homes will all be full of quilts.
Ahhhh mutuals I have been suckered into helping with a baked sale, any recommendations for things that are popular and cool and hip with the youths???? The only two things I can think of are those cookies that pillsbury sells with the spooky shapes on them. And maybe sunny buddies, the delicious sunflower butter knock off of muddie buddies but I don’t know if people would want to buy that???? Please give me your most Pinterest mom, secret family recipe, popular baked goods requests please I am begging you, thank you so much!
“we live in an uncaring universe” yeah dude and I live in an uncaring house. and I shit in an uncaring toilet. but do you touch an uncaring lover? do you comfort an uncaring child? do you guide to sleep each night a cold and uncaring self?

Disappointed to learn that Ark Encounter, the creationist theme park in Kentucky whose primary and by primary I mean only attraction is a replica of Noah's Ark built with public tax incentives & that pitches itself as a field trip destination for public schools, has abandoned their plans to build an "immersive" Plagues of Egypt ride, but delighted to learn the Bible theme park is building a Tower of Babel instead
kind of obsessed with this comment from the aoteaora nz subreddit….
“do you write for work or just for fun” none of the above. this activity is neither profitable nor enjoyable
girl you've been running through my mind all day
Making a Pizza John for Pizzamas and my partner suggested I make it on or out of a pizza. I'm not going to make it into a full papercutting because it's a bit of a hat on a hat but the sketch did give me a giggle.
"fuck it we ball" is for stress about the future "it is what it is" is for stress about the past and "this too shall pass" is for stress about the present thank you for coming to my TED talk

if you ask me, the guy who put the sword INTO the stone should be king, not the chucklefuck who got it out.
currently maybe possibly single-handedly crashing whatever servers eton hosts its archived student newspapers on because me and a friend are getting obsessed with a single outspoken prefect from 1883
