It's a lot healthier to go for a daily walk than to sign up for a gym membership you won't be using because you hate that kind of exercise. It's a lot healthier to eat a frozen meal than to skip a meal because you were too tired to cook something healthy. It's a lot healthier to take a quick shower than to procrastinate an elaborate routine for days. Don't aim so high that you won't be hitting anything!

this is actually really helpful and affirming thanks

all cyberpunk stories are like “If you wanna crack open a cybercroissant this nasty, you’re gonna need a real top notch e-driller. i know a guy- Toledo Killswitch- he’s got the frag ordinance you need to grizzle this bocce ball.”

If you’re terribly curious why this is, it’s because William Gibson – the guy whose work is largely synonymous with first-wave literary cyberpunk – spent most of the 1970s bumming around the Toronto drug scene (for many years he claimed he’d moved to Canada in order to avoid the Vietnam draft, though he later admitted that it was mostly for easier access to weed), and much of the distinctive argot of his work is based on the youth counterculture slang he observed during that period of his life. So basically the reason that dialogue in classic cyberpunk sounds Like That is because the characters all talk like teenage Canadian stoners from the 70s.

wordle and bts may seem like they have nothing in common but both have been cited by redditors as the reason why their elderly relative quit watching fox news and started acting normal again

you can hate wordle or bts as much as you like, but in the time honored words of a long gone tumblr user: "shit dude whatever works I guess"

Y’ever read something and have understanding that has eluded you interminably suddenly stop, curl up, and snuggle neatly into a fold in your brain because a new way way opened to it?

I've seen this passes around a few times, and I have one thing to say:

It's online. The book was carefully and wonderfully recreated online by hand. You can find it here. The entire book is this easy.

when you see me say stuff like "yeah doctors make me mad sometimes but they deal with a lot of bullshit too so not everything is their fault" this is what I'm referring to. thank you to the doctors who will send the authorization back as many times as it takes

I just got an application for financial assistance for Creon back for one of my patients because "date not legible." The date was perfectly fucking legible. This was the second time they sent it back. The first time was because the prescription was electronic and not on paper. They're just fucking with us at this point.

Deer season is upon us.

1.) Wear your seatbelt.

2.) If your choice is swerve at high speed or hit the deer you plow Bambis mom like you’re an IT specialist with a secret Twitter account and it’s anthrocon weekend.

Deer are softer than trees. Deer are softer than rolling your car 8 times.

To be honest I don't think Edgeworth really does much in the way of giving phoenix cold hard cash just in general. I think he's more the type to just casually buy shit. Not because he wouldn't give phoenix money but because phoenix never asks and Edgeworth has zero idea what the day to day life of a broke person is like. Phoenix bitches about their shitty vacuum breaking and edgeworth just sends them a new like $500 vacuum and phoenix sells it on facebook marketplace to buy a $200 vacuum and a month of groceries

Youre making points

Reminder NOT to use thriftbooks.com to get your expensive ass college textbooks because while it’s completely legal it also has books for super cheap unlike what your school supplies you with. I just found a $160 textbook (which I need for a class that has literally nothing to do with my degree) on thriftbooks for $12. Horrifying. Make sure you don’t use this site

People are always complaining about shifts in grammar feeling wrong to them, but when I was a kid it was still considered an error in formal English to apply the possessive pronoun to inanimate objects – i.e., you couldn't say "any die whose value is X", you had to say "a die the value of which is X" – and people pulling the stick out of their collective ass over that one is literally the best thing that ever happened to me.

If you have no perspective on how aggravating this rule was in practice, imagine that it applied to non-inanimates; i.e., imagine that in formal writing you weren't allowed to say "that's his car", you had to sad "that is the car of him", and this was considered reasonable. Fucking Mojo Jojo-ass grammar.

I saw twitter screenshot of someone saying “We need to start sexualizing autism.” and they got ratiod so hard. That post would go so hard on Tumblr because this is the autism sex website. Oh you’re autistic? *bounces on your meat like a springboard*

just an fyi for people who’ve let their social skills atrophy by spending too much time on tumblr:

this is generally not a good thing to say to a stranger on a nonsexual post
