i love the french, i love the way they pronounce Rs like they’re disgusted with them
the english meanwhile seem to have developed some sort of phobia about them
When we were discussing the surgery I’d need for my sleep apnea, the surgeon told me I’d never be able to speak French properly because the French R is a uvular sound and I’d no longer have a uvula.
… that’s okay? I’m not French? I don’t speak French? I’ve always thought it was the weirdest thing for him to say!
Huh. Didn’t know you could have French surgically removed.
sorry i just cannot get this out of my head. Like, “oh you speak french? i hear there’s an operation for that”
You guys I just realized that what I’ve always wanted out of werewolf fiction is a story where lycanthropy isn’t a purely human condition
Like this dude wakes up from his wolfbender and his room is full of all these fucking chickens from local farms that he initiated into his pack. They all start clucking and crowing at the moon and when it’s full they all transform into these tiny little weird bipedal wolves with wings.
I don’t remember making this post but it’s going around again and I’m losing my shit
Imagine becoming a werewolf because you got attacked by a fucked up chicken
A wildlife rehab centre discovers that one of its patients is a lycanthrope when the full moon hits and their wolf transforms into a slightly different wolf.
This lady was the main act in a funny online “scandal” some weeks ago (?) bc she is some famous bigshot in the tradwife online community and it got ‘leaked’ that she is married to a pretty high up millonaire guy, and thats why she can live by making videos of her making all kinds of foods from scratch in vintage and original expensive ass old kitchen.
But well, nothing more trad than the rich wife of a rich guy being able to be a stay at home mom and to larp as a farmer. Even old time royalty liked to do that from time to time.
I had to do a double take because I recognize that stove! That’s the stove from the fucking book. This romance novel I read (Scrap Metal by Harper Fox) kept talking about something called an “aga” and I went “what the hell is an aga?” and then got trapped all day reading about the history of the AGA cooker on Wikipedia, and let me tell you-
They’re designed to be on 24/7, they do not turn off. They use almost forty times the energy of a normal stove. The smallest AGA cooker will burn the same amount of gas in one week as a standard oven will use in nine months. So not only do they cost a million dollars they’re unimaginably wasteful.
Gaiman: “ If you really can’t figure out which political party or which politician to vote for, just ask if they’re on the side of libraries. Are they voting to fund their libraries? Are they voting to keep them free? Then vote for those guys. They’re probably the good guys. And by the same token, the book burners, the book banners, they’re probably the bad guys.”
