HAPPENING NOW: texas state troopers are menacing a pro palestine protest on ut austin's campus. AN ENCAMPMENT HASNT EVEN BEEN ESTABLISHED YET

edit: last i heard at least 15 protesters, and a member of the press, have been arrested. although i wouldn't be surprised if that number is much higher now. you can donate to the bail support at: venmo @psc_atx you can also call 512-854-9889 to demand all arrested comrades are released, ut austin's palestine solidarity committee posted a call script on instagram that you can follow.

being so fr with you all we need to drastically accelerate anti-car propaganda.

we need to make it so clear to future generations that we no longer tolerate a world where you cannot conveniently go for a walk or get a coffee or get groceries without a car

Well played, crow. Well played

大 means 'big.' It's used as the place name for Omiya station.

犬 the extra stroke exactly where the crow is standing changes the meaning to 'dog.' So now it's dog-o-miya station.

This crow understands Japanese and is a genius prankster.

a bit back this random dude cornered me trying to talk to me when I was waiting for the train and his breath smelled really bad, so I was covering my nose with my hands and shirt and I think he got embarrassed so he just walked away?? so I started covering my nose whenever random people try to bother me in public and the funny part is that it kinda works 50% of the time in making them leave me alone. oh the power of self consciousness

Teeth are bullshit. What do you mean you’re decaying. Get a fucking grip. You’re a bone now act like it. You don’t see my finger bones decaying from jerking it too much now do you

Can't let British people have air conditioning because first they'd call it something twee like "the climate fixer" and then in 20 years they'll call it "the climb" or "the climmy"

as i'm nearing exams once again, the urge to do one of those programs where you live on a farm in exchange for some chores every day and get to spend your free time going on walks through the surrounding nature sounds more appealing than ever. can't imagine why

#lifeblogging #linguistics #i love linguistics so much but i need to do something that isn't education in the year after i'm done with my bachelor's #the urge to study everything at once and the urge to get as far away from any institution that will make me take exams are fighting #both are losing #also i would read so many books from my tbr list
