where does one find such a thing?
which is that? damn I need to reread hhg it’s been a while
thanks, that was a lovely laugh this morning :)
“It was much better to imagine men in some smokey room somewhere, made mad and cynical by privilege and power, plotting over brandy. You had to cling to this sort of image, because if you didn’t then you might have to face the fact that bad things happened because ordinary people, the kind who brushed the dog and told the children bed time stories, were capable of then going out and doing horrible things to other ordinary people. It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone’s fault. If it was Us, then what did that make Me? After all, I’m one of Us. I must be. I’ve certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We’re always one of Us. It’s Them that do the bad things.”

3·1 个月前i adore hot mullys first 3 albums, haven’t heard this one yet
edit: thats considering Fenton and Honest & Cunning as an album, bc I have it on vinyl lol
this is cool I like it better than anything off why would I watch but still doesn’t hit the same as anything from opportunities or earlier imo
it’s way more fun seeing a shadowcast with the audience participation

5·1 个月前my gut reaction was that this is probably something to do with AAVE but I cannot for the life of me think of an example I’ve actually heard someone say, and I was living in the rural south for a couple years where the average education is… less than ideal…
maybe it’s an ESL issue mainly? I’m almost certain I’m messing up the Spanish equivalents rn stumbling my way through a Spanish speaking country rn 😭
can you think of any specific examples of someone making this mistake? I’ll give you a dollar if you find one in this comment of mine (I’m not proofreading it :3 )

9·1 个月前just did quite similar but from the US to El Salvador, touched down last night :)
I’m still getting hit by “this is either the stupidest or the smartest thing you’ve ever done in your life” and really I think it’s a little bit of both
i need to get my Spanish together STAT, English speakers are few and far between here… going on a journey to get a sim card today, wish me luck!

7·1 个月前The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy series and the John Dies at the End series
both 10/10s mixing gut wrenching existentialism and laugh out loud comedy
tbh I probably wouldn’t say I’m into comedy writing in general but those two and Terry Pratchett are the only writers to ever make me bust out laughing in response to words on a page

2·1 个月前hahaha! i thought I didn’t actually press send on that comment, idk I have a habit of dying on hills that are entirely unimportant. I just left the US for the first time in my life with a one way ticket… I’m out of there and so ready to be proved wrong on anything tbh
i really do think F is better for air temp but I’m sure i could adapt to C, and will not deny C is better for science. makes much more sense to attach it to states of water same w liters/kg etc






what do you do?
