TW: Simon doesn't feel too good in some parts of this, but it's not even close to the levels of angst of earlier chapters. It's more comparable with the first chapters of Wayward Son.
there’s apparently beef that happens between fraternal and identical twin communities n i think that’s funny n just the type of pettiness i like lol
identical twins: “omg fraternal twins don’t even count as real twins!”
fraternal twins: “ugh identical twins r creepy n have no individuality!”
me, a non twin: “LET EM KNOW”
I feel attacked right now
Question for the Snowbaz fandom
I don't have my book with me, so I can't look it up, but do Simon and Agatha break up before or after the Natasha's Visit?
i’ve loved greek mythology since i first learnt about it in school when i was 8, and now it turns out i’m gay? coincidence? i think not
the supreme confidence with which that person delivered the phrase “karma got its kiss for me” as if that’s a commonly used phrase we should all know is so fascinating to me. i hung back on making this post for so long because they had me convinced i was just dumb for never hearing it before
Okay, so here’s what you do if you experience this a lot: pick an emoji you don’t use that often (I always use the monkey covering his mouth, because it’s quite fitting to the situation) and use it as a sign that you won’t be responding to the other person at that moment. It basically means, “I read your message, but I’m not in the position to respond to it right now. I will do so later, though.” And the thing is: there are no further explanations needed. It is an agreement between sender and receiver that the receiver won’t ask questions and the sender doesn’t need to justify their reason for not answering right away. This way the receiver won’t have to feel ignored or insecure or whatever and the sender won’t have to feel pressured to respond immediately.
(it’s also a quite convenient way to warn someone you’re in the middle of a conversation with that you can’t respond anymore when some parent or whatever is demanding your attention irl)
So, pick an emoji that works for you. Explain the method to the people you chat the most with on your phone and enjoy the freedom of not constantly being pressured into immediately responding and not constantly being terrified once someone doesn’t respond to you right away.
1998 nickelodeon trade ad
It’s amazing how they could make an ad from 1998 that looks like a shitpost made a week ago.
Wasn’t iCarly that guy with the wax wings that flew into the sun and fucking got rest because same
I just realized my phone corrected Icarus to iCarly because I type iCarly more than Icarus okay thanks
I thought this was just a god tier shitpost
honestly besides the romance my favorite part of pride and prejudice has to be how much of a complete Disaster the bennet family is,,,,,,,like mr bennet is sarcastic af and never tells his family anything until like the hour before it happens (“btw ur cousin that you’ve never even met before and who could throw ur asses out on the streets one day is coming for dinner at 4”),,,,,mrs bennet is the total Can I Speak To The Manager mom who always threatens to pass out even if she’s never passed out once in her entire life,,,,lydia practically stalks military men and was once voted most likely to run away from home forever for a laugh,,,,,kitty would probably burn the house down if lydia told her it was a good idea,,,,,mary is the epitome of that one person who memorizes only six lines from a textbook and says “knowledge is power” for three days after,,,,,,,,jane would practically apologize to someone who was stabbing her,,,,and im almost 1000% sure that elizabeth has at least once stood up on the dining room table and yelled at her family “fight me then” when she’s angry,,,,,,literally the original sitcom family
You can’t convince me the Trojans don’t frequently make references to the iliad
- a striker, charging towards the goal
- “I AM HECTOR OF TROY, BEST OF THE TROJANS”
- “NO YOU’RE FUCKING DEAD” - his mark
- there would be at least one drama queen
- especially when hungover
- “tell coach… tell coach I can’t for for training today… the mighty achilles hath slain me”
- coach: I’ll drag his corpse around the court walls too if they aren’t here in 10
- the best striker of each match gets called Paris
- they use it even more once Jean joins
- Jean usually makes it a point to swear in french at them
- he once called someone a lumbering oaf undeserving of the name
- then proceeded to basically shut them down next practice
- they call him the trojan wall now
- when Neil heard he sent them a wooden_horse.jpg
- Nicky photoshopped Neil’s head on it
- “ok but who would be Achilles, Day or Josten?”
- “Day’s the best but Neil, he go nyoom”
- they vote Neil
- Kevin got especially prissy when he found out he wasn’t Achilles
- Nicky consoles him
- console as in: well you’re enough of an asshole to be Achilles to me
- Andrew starts deflecting the balls to Kevin’s feet (heel)
- a Day of Regrets™
The Circleville Herald, Ohio, November 28, 1955
How to use “and” 5 times in a row grammatically: A man owned a store called “This And That” and hired another man to make a sign for it. When it was finished the owner inspected the work. He discovered that the spaces were wrong so he said “the space between This and And and And and That is different. Please fix it”
Doesn’t sound demonic, which is a nice change of pace from the typical 8x slowed down songs.
