How your LONGHOUSED brother-in-law's teenage half-sister looks at you when your BITCH sister nags him into impoverishing her and kicking her out the great house she's known and loved her whole life.

I appreciate how DC has two Japanese grocery stores, one for Yuppies and one for actual Japanese people and Weebs.

Sense and Sensibility was actually quite goodβ€”played completely straight, wonderful acting, sound and cinematography (especially the use of animals in shots) were both excellent as well. I especially appreciated that they cast a lead actress whose face evokes the period so well.

I'm normally against animal cruelty but geese in particular once thwarted a Gallic assault on the infernal city of Rome, so I think the French ought to be allowed their vengeance in perpetuity.

That’s right
Orangemen worldview is so interesting when you think about it. The God made flesh came to liberate and save humanity, but an evil sect of deceiversβ€”led by a heresiarch in the remnants of the old imperial capitalβ€”usurped His name and perverted the gospel to enslave and damn humanity again. You’re here on this archipelago, among the very few lands anywhere to have apparently-miraculously been shook awake from this global hoax, though not without generations of bloodshed. Just when you thought all hope was lost, after a popish king again took control of your islands, a brave challenger from some pipsqueak quasi-republic on the continentβ€”King Billyβ€”literally took sword in hand and fought alongside your ancestors and liberated you again. But even now, the wretched spawn of a lesser race overwhelm your particular island, and seek even at the cost of their own souls and those of their hordes of ill-begotten spawn to bring back the tyranny of that chief deceiver in Rome. And so even in the age of telephones and automobiles and the advancing rot of your own mother kingdom from within, you’re still just at your post, generation on generation, keeping that precious light of freedom and salvation alive. Primarily through arson and drug-dealing and bombs and marching around in sashes and such. Thugs for God at the end of the world.

This is kind of what Vibecamp is like
This Simpsons joke about Catholic v Protestant heaven is welded into my brain, especially because in the narrative of the show Catholic heaven is meant to be undesirable despite Christ himself preferring it

You may be forgiven for thinking the Tocharians were an uncreative people. What scant literature survives is almost entirely sectarian, and almost entirely in translation. Buddhist sutras, hymns, dramas, all from India. But one. One unique creation, one original work: a love poem
Reactionaries for some reason think β€œromantic love” is some special magical thing and not as mundane, boring, and common as like β€œeating food”

It’s strange to me how many different worlds there are and how unconnected they can be. I go to a climbing gym (that has yoga/pilates/weights too) all the time and like, maybe 10% of the women wear ultra-tight leggings and stuff. Basically no outfit is numerically dominant.
I think a small % of women actually want to wear the full whore gym uniform, the majority do it to fit in. I dress more modestly and especially in the girly classes it makes me feel like a hoe scaring leering lesbian. Which I am but could hide better in scrunch shorts n bralette

A theme this year has been discovering how much β€œFrench Rednecks” may be one of my types. Also this guy tragically doesn’t seem to have an Apple Music or Spotify page.
QuΓ©bΓ©cois call and response folk singing has been all over my social media. I see this guy on instagram all the time. It’s fucking awesome. Vive le QuΓ©bec fr
