i love that sirius black escapes azkaban and his first 2 instincts are:

If these aren’t your two primary goals following a dramatic escape from a supermax prison— what are you even doing with your life?

“dramatic escape” that bitch literally just walked out

HE SWAM ACROSS THE FUCKING OCEAN AS A DOG I THINK THAT QUALIFIES AS A DRAMATIC ESCAPE

even better he DOG PADDLED OUT

cliché but classic trope: when the person who almost died wakes up in a hospital bed, looks around and sees the object of their affection sleeping uncomfortably in the chair next to them because they haven’t moved in days.

You can pry that trope from my cold dead hands.

cliché but classic sub trope of this: the person who almost died tells the object of their affection “you look like shit” despite the fact that they are the one in the hospital bed and almost died.

Loving how as soon as electricity was like, a Thing, people just went "you can make toast with this" and started working on electric toasters but they didn't quite have the whole heating element thing down so there was a not insignificant chance of it just exploding

People have been making bread crunchy by heating it up for Ages but for some reason I thought electric toasters would be happening around the same time as like, refrigerators but no people went "easier crunchy bread?" as soon as the technology was available. Not even remotely safe but like, existent. It took Way longer to figure out how to make things cold with electricity

I specify electric toasters because before that they had these bad boys

You just put your slice of bread in there and hold it over your fireplace and bam it's toast time

Actually you didn't have to use those, if you find yourself wanting some toast in victorian england you could also stick your bread on one of these motherfuckers right here

These are the very creatively titled (/s) toasting forks and they look metal as hell for the purpose they serve

You might notice that the tips are bent upwards, which is actually not for inflicting more pain when tormenting the souls of the damned but rather because the bread goes on them like so

And the bend helps keep the bread from sliding off

I know this is the most niche interest shit in the world but just look at that. The victorian era had no reason to go as hard as it did but every day I am grateful for it

Hilarious Cat Snapchats That Will Leave You With The Biggest Smile ( part 1)

Hey people in Scandinavian countries if the UK breaks up due to Brexit the time would be ripe to go a Viking again. Just sayin’

As a Viking descendant I approve this message. 

With that said though, imagine an economic and political coalition between the Scandinavian countries and Scotland.

Prognosticats. 

10th Kingdom was dope, say what you want.

It does rather look like he’s reacting to something I said…

PLAYING IN THE DARK will go out completely on BBC Radio 3 from 7:30 to 10:30pm on December 23rd.

It will go out in two slightly trimmed halves on BBC Radio 4, on the early morning on the 25th of December and the afternoon of January 1st.

Hear David Tennant being Crowley and Aziraphale and a Scottish narrator…

You will be able to listen to each programme for 28 days after it goes up. Anywhere in the world.

Or that David is telling me something enormous and dreadful and I am not perturbed.

Please…is there a link to a promo page….the comments are just all the women yelling at the cat meme.

Here’s the link to BBC Radio 3′s page: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000ck1c – Mon 23 Dec 2019 at 19:30 GMT then up for 28 days.

An edited version of it will be on BBC Radio 4 at 6 am on Christmas Day, and in the afternoon on New Year’s Day. But I don’t have a page for it.

Here’s the page for Chivalry, at 4 pm on Christmas Day, though. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000cl46

I told my boss (Catholic) that one of my roommates is Jewish and she got very concerned about how we’re going to do Christmas and it’s like… our household is comprised of one Jewish person, one Atheist, one Agnostic, and one Pagan. 

So chances are we’re going to have Hannukkah, Yule, and the Seasonal Blend of American Christmas Traditions. 

“Are you going to have a tree?” 

Like why wouldn’t we have a tree? That tradition comes from my people, so yes we would have a tree. Blended families have existed for thousands of years, it ain’t that hard.  

It’s kind of like she’s reading their Jewishness as an oppressive force instead of a coexisting one. Like… because they’re Jewish, we can’t have non-Jewish things. 

And it’s taking a lot out of me not to say ‘nah, that’s y’all.’ 

Also I have been informed that Hannukah starts the 22nd this year, which means that we’re gonna have a week-and-a-half-long winter festival beginning with Yule on the 21st and ending with New Years on the 1st.

Which, honestly, tops the three-month mess of stress and disappointment that is the current status of Christmas festivities in America. 

Bring on the fried foods and setting stuff on fire! I’m ready for this holiday season!

shakespeare villains be like today i will cause problems on purpose

shakespeare be like “what is a man? a miserable little pile of problems”

If you're a man, and a woman friend confides in you about how shitty men are, it's because she considers you one of the good ones--someone it's safe to vent to. Don't ruin that vibe with some "not all men" crap. She knows. That's why she's talking to you. You don't have to say it; she's already telling you, just not in so many words. If you were one of the ones she was talking about, she wouldn't be confiding in you about it, so instead of getting offended, you should feel honored, my droogie.
