It’s not too late to abandon Harry Potter forever for The Discworld Series, my friends. Come over to our nerdy, little corner. There are 41 of these suckers & Terry Pratchett actually understood what it meant to treat people like humans. Have fun & know you are loved.

When they said “History repeats itself,” I wasn’t expecting all of the twentieth century in two years.

the hardest i’ve ever been pranked is when i saw Interstellar cuz of all the pre-release press about them hiring astrophysicists to compute the mathematically most correct way to depict nebulas & blackholes & shit. but then the movie was like “actually stars are made of love ❤️”

So the reason not to say "screw it, let's just unmask and go back to normal" right now is to try to....flatten the curve. I know that's an expression from way back when, but it applies. We need to slow down infections to keep hospitals from collapsing. 6/n

what if I told you that “learning to live with covid” means “accepting that some degree of covid precautions are just part of life now” and not “fuck it, covid is inevitable, let’s go back to freely coughing on strangers”

Doesn’t the idea of “learning to live with the virus” imply some sort of learning, some sort of changed behaviour? Isn’t it contradictory to be pro “learning to live with” and anti any sort of mitigations?

I don’t mind paying ten or fifteen dollars for a book because I know the author likely spent five years staring at a screen in panic yelling “I’m a FRAUD, I have no idea what I’m doing!” and they are now entitled to compensation.

why is every American medication commercial like: do you feel kind of ICKY sometimes? FIGHT your doctor in a PARKING LOT until he agrees to give you ICKINEX, the ONLY medication that fights general ICKINESS. Side effects include SHITTING YOURSELF into a COMA and also DEATH.
