Kind of hilarious to me how poorly the title "Mob Psycho 100" localized to English-speaking areas. To someone whose first language is English, it scans as:
Mob (Yakuza, Mafia)
Psycho (violent person with "crazy" behaviors)
Thus: a particularly violent member of organized crime.
But in Japanese it scans as:
Mob (background characters in crowd scenes in manga or anime)
Psycho (short for psychic)
Thus: a psychic who looks/acts like someone you'd never pick out of a crowd scene in a comic.

The fact that Orlando Bloom (Legolas) and Andy Serkis (Gollum) both said that they based their performances in Lord of the Rings off of cat behavior really shows you the sheer range of what cats are like

I thought I was late to my appointment at the ADHD clinic but the ADHD clinic knows their clients well and the appointment reminded me to be here at 1:30 when my appointment was actually at 2:00.
Me: oh good I'm actually on time! :)
Me, realizing why and being overcome by the mortifying ordeal of being known: >:/

Murasaki Shikibu was a writer during the Heian era of Japan, born in 973. She is most famous for writing the epic classic Tale of Genji, which is considered to be the first novel ever written. Murasaki was from an aristocratic family. She disliked men and mostly kept to herself, spending much of her time at Imperial court writing new chapters for the Tale of Genji. She passed them on to friends, who in turn copied them out and passed them on to their friends to read and copy, and it quickly became popular. Women were thought to be too stupid to learn the traditional written Chinese kanji characters and were taught phonetic kana instead. But Murasaki learned Kanji easily and taught it to the princess Shoshi in secret, causing outrage when she became empress and used it publicly. Murasaki is largely credited for developing Japanese into a written language. She earned herself the nickname “Our Lady of the Chronicles”.

The hilarity of this considering at least half of us have basically nonsense as our usernames.
Anyway I AM The Random Insanity Universe, apparantly, and that is actually 100% accurate since this silly little fictional universe I made up canonically exists inside my head.
Your Tumblr username decides your profession. How is your first day at work?

Working in my current profession has allowed me to see the very worst (or possibly the very best) of human ingenuity. I have learned that people will put a fully functional toilet absolutely anywhere in an old house.
The worst offenders, in no particular order:
On the landing at the top of the basement stairs. (Hey, it was behind a door at least.) No sink, the tenants had to walk across the kitchen to wash their hands.
In the coat closet. No sink. The tenants had to walk through the dining room and into the kitchen to wash their hands.
On a raised dais in the basement. (Do not ask me why they built a raised platform—two steps—for it. I have no clue.) Sink and tub ready to hand (neither on the platform) but no walls. Curtain to be pulled closed when in use, apparently. In the kitchen pantry. (This one is actually quite common, but in most cases the tenants have ceased to use the rest of the room as a pantry. In most cases.)
