#fucking pelican!!!!!! #in san fransisco you get these insane squads of hundreds of pelicans flying in these massive formations #i love them so much. love seeing them just fucking bomb the water. #i loved going to the marina in berkeley and watching them dive from the shore. just huge wonderful bastards #also love the crows at my house and the herons down in the wetlands

When people get a little too gung-ho about-

wait. cancel post. gung-ho cannot be English. where did that phrase come from? China?

ok, yes. gōnghé, which is…an abbreviation for “industrial cooperative”? Like it was just a term for a worker-run organization? A specific U.S. marine stationed in China interpreted it as a motivational slogan about teamwork, and as a commander he got his whole battalion using it, and other U.S. marines found those guys so exhausting that it migrated into English slang with the meaning “overly enthusiastic”.

That’s…wild. What was I talking about?

#weabooo i guess #the answer is 'i have at various times learned ten different languages that are different from my native two' #of these i have forgotten most of the dead languages #nevertheless i can still sing at least one song in french german russian latin japanese and chinese #in addition to my native spanish and english #the french song is a drinking song and the german song is a hiking song #my german friend taught it to me as we hiked down into the grand canyon #the japanese i memorized in middle school for fun and it stuck with me #the others are just songs i listen to regularly enough to know them by heart #this makes me sound more clever than i am so i want to reassure everyone i fall down the stairs in my house once a season

most important thing to remember about being a woman is if youre married you have to go under the covers with your husband and laugh cutely and play wrestle so when you die to progress the narrative he can remember it in slow motion montages

“Actually, writing extremely self-indulgent OCs and fiction and making overpowered characters is good, do it.”

“Man, I wish anyone would care or ask about what I write.”

The first statement isn’t false necessarily but you have to understand that in most cases it does also lead to the second statement, and if you accept that, I think you’re legitimately cool, but if you don’t, you better be some new age Terry Prachet if you want to have your cake and eat it.
