So tumblr won’t let me comment on posts anymore—I can reblog and like but not comment. I write and hit enter and it just doesn’t show up. Has anyone successfully trouble shot this before..? Blaaarg.

Re: distractions, I don’t know if this was a thing outside of the United States, but as a kid we used to get popsicles that had amazingly bad jokes on the sticks, so as you ate your popsicle you could slowly see the joke and the answer. I recently discovered that popsicle put their popsicle stick jokes online so you can click through them, and it’s become my bad day ritual. You can find them here:
https://www.popsicle.com/us/en/playzone/jokes.html
Or if you’d like a preview:
Q: Why is a bad joke like a dull pencil?
A: It has no point!
..I know this is ridiculous, but sending a hug from here and hopes for good things coming your way! 💜
omg that's amazing! Personally, I really enjoyed:
Q: What is a duck's favourite snack?
A: Quackers!
We didn't have those fun popsicles with facts, but we did have these sweets called Fantales when I was younger, which had literal 'fan tales' - i.e. stories about movie stars - on the wrapper. Sadly, they were discontinued recently (probably because they weren't great sweets), but I wish the umbrella company that owned them added stories to the wrappers for something else!
We also have a brand of sanitary products over here that puts fun facts on the inside packaging. The facts are called 'Odd Spots' and include things like:
- When you blush, the lining of your stomach also turns red, and;
- Botanically, true berries include grape, tomato and eggplant, but not raspberries and blackberries.
You've just gotta take them with a grain of salt because there's some old wives tales in them for sure 😂
This was such a fun distraction! Thanks for the info, Ani, and the hug ❤️❤️❤️

Queen of Swords and The High Priestess
Officially, it's about the high-level talks. However, the unofficial gossip is at least as important.

saw a tiktok of a mother taking her very tiny daughter to an art museum and she’s just walking around going “whoooa” “woooaah” to everything but then they got to a marble statue of a nude woman lying on her back and the girl points and goes “mommy🫵” and i just immediately welled up with tears and all the comments are just laughing about it and of course it’s funny but how are you not insanely moved by the way art connects everyone on earth from a centuries-old sculptor to a toddler in 2023

Oh hey friends, just popping in to say I know I have a ton of comments, DMs, asks, and tags that I have not yet responded to—this is entirely a function of my job being absolutely bananas at the moment, and not due to any other factors, I promise. So please don’t think I’m deliberately ignoring you or read anything into my silence! I am sending hugs to all of you over the airwaves in the meantime, and if you can send some good vibes to an exhausted human rights lawyer in return, they would be greatly appreciated. 💜
