I don’t tag everything, because half of the time I scroll through Tumblr fully dissociating. If I miss something let me know.

Feel free to follow my aesthetic blogs: @circlesof-flowers and @toosoftfortrees I’m working on making both of these more accessible once I figure out how to actually write IDs properly.
So Thomas already saw this on twitter last night but I figure I’d share here too:
All of the basic boxes the Sides are in make the living room if you do some cutting! There are a few small errors (mostly in Logan’s box and tbh I don’t really get how/why lol) but I thought it was neato! Also Thomas thought it was funny too:
:D
Also for all you analogical fans (myself included) I never really realized how close Virgil and Logan actually stand by each other. Like they could hold hands you know? 👀
Blaming random African aunties just feeding their families and not the billionaires literally setting the world on fire sure is something
Yeah alright
Just trying to sell a product to a market they’ve “discovered” by labeling it as “eco-friendly” I think they’ll find their main obstacle is African workers aren’t paid enough to succumb to gimmick artificial needs.
Also, how the fuck do you explain that burning a few pieces of firewood per meal causes carbon emissions when it’s happening in Africa, but burning truckloads of firewood is considered “carbon-neutral biomass power” when it’s happening in a power plant in Europe? I’d really fucking like to hear that explained to me because it doesn’t seem to make any fucking sense, thank you.
i think we should start taking pride in our bad english
There’s no such thing as “bad english”. English itself is inherently bad. No language that spells ‘colonel’ that way gets to criticise other people for how they spell or speak it.
I used to be a spelling and grammar freak until I took a course on “History of the English Language”
As it turns out! When English spelling was standardized, the dictionary writers LITERALLY made the rules of “proper English” super fucking hard on purpose because they didn’t want “the wrong sort of people” (ie. 90% of English speakers) to be able to pass themselves off in High Society
That’s why English has so many bullshit grammar rules that make no sense about double negatives and split infinitives and stuff. To make sure that only people with years of training in the nonsensical and arbitrary rules of “proper speech” could speak “properly”
(Henry Higgins can get stuffed)
So yeah
If you’re expressing yourself and getting your point across, rock on, you’re speaking good English
