Wine is slutty drunk and bourbon is cozy drunk
Wine: Full of Dionysus. Lascivious. Hedonistic.
Bourbon: Full of Demeter. Nourishing. Inevitable.
Bourbon: This brown liquid will fix me
Wine: it is SOCIETY that needs to be fixed
Vodka: Full of Hermes. Both Slutty and Cozy. Contains Multitudes.
Tequila: Full of Ares. Feisty. Homoerotic.
Gin: Full of Hera: Impulsive. Tender, yet imperious.

when i was reading the book entangled life which is about fungi and the author merlin sheldrake said that once he got his first author copies he was going to dampen the pages and use them to grow oyster mushrooms and yeast and then use the yeast to brew beer and then drink the beer with the mushrooms to complete the cycle of fungal knowledge. i was like really and truly this guy gets it
list of the most moments in homestuck of all time:
- when dave is in his room after 3 years and looks at the selfies he took when he was younger and starts laughing and then crying
- when aradia is giving her soliloquy at the end of hivebent and you have to scroll all the way down that really long panel and she says "a scratch"
- when bec prototypes himself in [S] Jade: Enter and there's a split second before you realize what that means
- when kanaya sees vriska kissing tavros and throws the dress out of her room and starts crying and her lusus taps her on the shoulder and consoles her
- when dave is sitting on the roof with dirk and says "how did you tell your friends"

IMPORTANT ADDITIONS
Particularly this bit.
-that part when the alpha kids are all hungover from trickster mode i dont even remember what happens but it made me cry so hard
every day I think about how hysterical it is that taika waititi really almost had a scene in thor ragnarok where thor reveals he has “LOKI R.I.P.” tattooed on his wrist like thats. literally so funny how did that get past anyone at marvel there is FOOTAGE of them shooting that scene gjkhdfjkghgf
like let’s unpack this behind the scenes photo:
1. that’s taika’s forearm and and he clearly practiced writing tattoo ideas on his own arm, in ballpoint pen, moments before shooting, and “loki 4 eva” was a rejected idea
2. thor’s tattoo is also written in ballpoint pen
3. chris hemsworth has absurdly well-manicured hands. not relevant to this discussion but it’s worth pointing out
If Hulk can smash Thor around and not even break his skin, what I want to know is what kind of freakin needle can actually bust through that godly epidermis and make a lasting impression on it. These are important questions.
serious answer: skurge, also an asgardian, has head tattoos, so ostensibly there’s some kind of godly tattoo parlor out there
fun answer: thor possibly, in canon, also literally wrote this “tattoo” in ballpoint pen and just kept writing over it whenever it faded because he’s not quite sure what a tattoo actually is
better answer: there is no godly tattoo parlor and skurge also does his tattoos in ballpoint pen
people with dark brown hair and dark brown eyes are so pretty.. fantastic combination…
god i never realised how little people with dark brown hair n eyes get complimented until i made this post and discussed it with one of my friends, you guys dont get appreciated as much as you should and im glad that this small post meant something to you, youre all lovely
the idea that “technological advancement” should strive for the elimination of mentally ill, autistic or physically disabled people, instead of easier and better accommodations that allow us to live healthy and fulfilling lives, is ableist
I don’t understand what this post is saying…medicine should stop striving for cures because it’s discriminatory towards sufferers of mental and physical illness or disability?…um
Hi, sorry to butt in again but I’ve been working in disability for two and a half years as well as being disabled myself, so perhaps I can clear something up. There are two models of looking at disability. There’s the old model, the medical model, which sees disability as something inherent in the person - a person who uses a wheelchair is disabled because their limbs don’t function in the same way as other people’s, for example. Then there’s the new model, the social model, which sees disability as a symptom of society, so a person who uses a wheelchair is disabled because society does not fully cater for people in that position (think, for example, about how many buildings, transport systems etc. don’t have step free access).
You’re thinking about disability in terms of the medical model. The issue with this is that many disabled people don’t. For example, for many autistic people, their autism is an inherent part of who they are - it shapes their behaviour, mentality and personality to an extent that without it, they would lose all sense of their identity. Suggesting that they should be cured suggests that there is something inherently faulty about them - that who they are is bad and wrong and they need to be turned into a new person, instead of wider society being educated about autism and there being less pressure to behave and process information in a certain way.
Now, some disabled people do want a cure. I suffer from joint hypermobility syndrome, a chronic pain condition which makes everyday living very unpleasant a lot of the time, and I would love for that to be cured, but that is because only the medical model can apply to me. There is nothing that could be changed about society that could make my condition easier to live with, the only way my life could be improved is if my joints stopped hurting. Also, my condition doesn’t affect who I am other than hindering me due to the constant pain - without it, I would still be me, just more comfortable.
Please listen to disabled people. We all have different perspectives on and understandings of disability. When someone says that they don’t want to be cured (or that they do), please listen to them and try to understand why. It’s only a cure if it’s genuinely going to help the people it’s intended for, and the people it’s intended for know whether or not it will better than anybody else.
This is one of the very best breakdowns of the different models I’ve ever seen. Thank you! :)
This is so informative! Got questions about disability and sexuality? Check out our resources.
I think it’s pretty clear that his second secret is more than a crush, it’s his romantic and sexual identity as a whole. Ronan knows he’s gay he’s just not ready to tell himself until Kavinsky asks him outright and he’s not ready to accept himself until Opal asks him why he hates himself. It’s not 100% clear if before that point if Ronan considers himself sinful because of his dreaming, his sexuality, or both.
But throughout the book we see him crush on different people. He has a crush on Gansey. He has a crush on Kavinsky. He has a crush on Adam. But by the end of the book he sees Gansey as a brother and rejects Kavinsky, leaving Adam as his only potable crush. From that point on he concentrates his affections there until they take him over (you know, like an oil spill). But!!! As good as that line is (”Ronan’s second secret was Adam Parrish.”) it’s even more powerful Because it’s said as it becomes True. Ronan not keeping his own orientation from himself anymore, but he’s not ready to face how invested he is in Adam just yet.

Hey mother nature i love you and shit but like….what the fuck my good bitch
Goodness!
Okay. I’m Canadian so I know a shit ton about staying warm if you’re new to the cold there here are some tips!(add more if you know more!)
1. Wear grippy shoes, nothing is worse than snowmelt freezing on your skin.
2.Do not wear jeans as your outter layer. wet denim is the most body heat siphoning mother fucker known to man or god
3. Have a warm drink with you. It will help. Even just some hot soup broth or boiled water will help keep you warm.
4. Wear a moisture wicking layer close to your skin so you don’t get cold from your own sweat. You will sweat. That is fine and expected.
5. If you start feeling too warm even though you were cold and like you have to take your clothes of DO NOT. Call 911. You are suffering from hypothermia.
6. Bring a blanket and a heat source that needs no electricity with you in your vehicle. You do not want to be stranded with no heat in the case that something happens.
7. If you are struggling on ice as you’re walking, stop. Get your balance and penguin shuffle to a less slippery patch of ground. There’s usually less ice on one side of the walk and it’s better to walk in the snow next to the sidewalk than it is to eat dirt when ya slip
8. STAY THE ABSOLUTE FUCK AWAY FROM FROZEN BODIES OF WATER. Ponds are deceptive as shit even with the “solid blue tried and true” thing. Go around.
9. Keep kids warm. They run at a higher body temperature and will feel the effects of the cold worse than you.
10. Huddling is your best friend. Even if you don’t know the person, remember you’re both cold, especially if they don’t have the right clothing for the weather.
11. Pay attention to windchill. That is how cold it feels. Dress appropriately please. I know it’s tempting to dress for style, but there’s nothing stylish about losing your toes to frostbite
12. Don’t touch metal if you can avoid it. It will sap your heat and likely freeze to anything wet. Like tongues. Don’t fucking lick a pole.
13. If someone licks something metal, pour warm water over their tongue to get them free. If they yank, they will bleed. A lot.
14. Keep your ears, noes, fingers, and toes warm. You’re extremities will get cold first and are the most likely parts of your body to get frostbite.
15. If you see someone who may not have a place to be in the cold, offer to help them find a local shelter or library. The elements, especially the cold, are some of the largest threats to those who cannot avoid them.
16. If you find yourself stuck outside for a long time, sleep during the day when it is warmest, and avoid sleeping on the ground. Stay awake as much as you can at night so you have a better chance of staying warm.
Also, look out for your local animals. Cats will sleep on car wheels where you can’t see them - it’s elevated, rubber is warmer than the ground, and it’s a little hideyhole where they feel safe. Check your wheel wells and under your car before you go driving off, you might save a tiny life.
You can also, if you’re so inclined, make a little winter shelter for cats and small animals fairly easily and cheaply.
[Here] is a great (if lengthy) text guide to building shelters for local cats. [Here] is a video from the Ontario SPCA. [Here] is an even simpler (ad possibly cheaper) version of basically the same thing. As long as you smooth out the opening (so the lil guys don’t injure themselves on it), insulate, and line it, and then put it somewhere where it’s not going to get flooded or the animal snowed in, you’re grand. It might not seem like much in the face of subzero temperatures, but it’s damn well better than nothing.
Everyone, look through the notes for other information too!
Boosting this advice for how humans can stay safe and also how we can help out our local animal friends to make sure they are okay <3

u know what my biggest pet peeve is? when someone is like genuinely very mean to others and when they’re called out on their behavior they’re like “sorry i’m just a bitch xoxo” like yes u sure are!!!!! not something u should be proud of
When I accidentally befriended a pedophile and registered sex offender on here at age 15, it was through fandom. We were in the same fandoms, and me, being a dumbass, shared my phone number so we could text.
My parents became concerned by the texts, especially after the person wanted me to film myself or send a picture of myself so we could “get to know each other”. Well my parents stopped me and showed the information to authorities. That’s when I found out the truth behind my internet friend.
I am completely serious when I say kids should stay clear of adults much older than them in fandoms that are fast to be friends and want to share information. Or just in general.
I know “stranger danger” is overdone and you can totally make friends online, but really, do be careful when it comes to being personal.

Andrew in the motel in Baltimore- choked answers out of Kevin on the way there, had to be handcuffed to Wymack because he couldn’t calm down, knocks an agent out of his way to get to Neil, kneels in front of Neil and proceeds to check all of his injuries, clenches his hand in Neil’s hoodie, threatens Abby for even attempting to get close to Neil, grips Neil’s head to turn his attention back to him and then presumably keeps his hand there, hooks his fingers I Neil’s collar to pull him closer, says he’s not going to let them take Neil away and gets the rest of the foxes involved in the fight
Neil in the motel room in Baltimore - first words out of his mouth are concern for Andrew, attacks an agent to keep them from firing at Andrew, is more concerned about Andrews injuries than his own, apologizes to Andrew and doesn’t even flinch when Andrew pulls a fist back to punch him, frames andrews face with his hands to stop him from going after an agent and then proceeds to verbally obliterate said agent, taps a finger to Andrews cheek, digs his hand into Andrews hair to turn his attention back to him, presses two fingers to Andrew’s chest, barely takes his eyes off Andrew the entire time
