Computer, How Do I Quit My Job And Live Here Frolicking In The Garden And Baking Sourdough All Day? Quickest

The secret to singing high notes is that you have to treat them like they’re any other note. If you act like they’re a big deal, they become a big deal. They’re like dogs. They can smell fear.

Never gonna forget showing my roommate MASH after explaining it as a Korean War drama/comedy, then watching it in silence till the end where she turns to me and says that wasn’t a K-drama

Truly Melbourne’s greatest feature is the free tram zone.

Everyone gives Sherlock Holmes a hard time about being mean about Watson's writing, but honestly imagine you told your roommate "sure, you can write up an account of my work for the newspaper," thinking it would be like, about the murder, but then he publishes it and it's 90% about you, as a person, and it's a huge hit and now everyone in London knows that you hoard newspapers and do cocoaine when you're depressed. Because I think you'd be little miffed too.

The haunting ancient Celtic carnyx being played for an audience. This is the sound Roman soldiers would have heard their Celtic enemies make.

I think it’s so so SO important to show love in ways other than buying loads of stuff, and that goes for both parties in all relationships.

The commodification of love through trends like elaborate Valentine’s Day proposals and boo baskets make cringe so hard thinking of the environmental impact. Obviously there are exceptions, but most I have seen are people are buying random themed junk that won’t get used year-round (does anyone really need a polyester pumpkin-print blanket?)

Social media tells us that showing we care has a dollar figure attached. For women in general, but also for femmes in a butchfemme dynamic, the prevailing narrative is that if our partners aren’t spending money on grand romantic gestures and buying us gifts all the time, they don’t truly love us. Really, this mentality only benefits corporations.

Gift giving can be a beautiful and heartfelt expression of love - when done with consideration. When you give a gift, make sure it is meaningful and the recipient can used for years to come. Choose mostly to express your love for your partner, your friends and family, and your wider community in ways that benefit you and the earth, rather than Jeff Bezos.

casual reminder that you can still spoil your femme without feeding into consumerism <3

write them notes n love letters, cook them their favorite meal, bake them a treat, steal them something from a shitty corporation, spoil them with words of affirmation and gratitude, bring back a pretty rock shell leaf etc. from an outdoor trip you had, proudly show off photos of yourself or photos you took, lend them your favorite book with a note abt why it's your favorite, put the towel in the dryer before they're out of the shower n wrap them in it, pick out outfits from their wardrobe you think they'd be cute in so they can show off for you, give them your undivided attention & ask encouraging questions, etc etc etc

Love that in a lot of classic literature people just “randomly” fall ill but bro their homes were stacked to the roof with arsenic and asbestos and lead and radium of course they were sick all the time.
