Because This Shows You That History Can Be Hilarious!! 😂🤣

I like the mermatron, myself.

Definitely not June but HAPPY PRIDE!!!

Happy pride. Reminder there is still a big echo chamber underbelly of conservative bigots within the LU / greater Zelda fandom here on Tumblr. This includes many who claim to "love everyone" under their religion, but happily interact with open bigots (such as those on That Conservative Server who think the queer "movement" is inherently predatory in nature. Such rhetoric is incredibly harmful and dangerous toward the queers you supposedly "love").

Reblog this post if you would like to fire some shots in the backyard and remind your followers you are 100% queer (or an ally) and do not tolerate intolerance!

This!! Yes and yes and yes!!!

It drives me a little spinny when I see people posting “Why Aziraphale doesn’t just keep his books at home if he doesn’t want to sell them” because it seems to me to so clearly be a riff on real life antiquarian bookshops?

I worked in a used and rare book shop for five years, and have frequented them since I was young, and Aziraphale is like, a type of guy who just exists. An older fellow who refuses to keep his books in any sort of order, neglects to write prices in, opens at wildly varying hours, and by all accounts does not seem to want to be in business at all. The answer I found, by the end, was because many of them were doing it as a sort of retirement hobby. They made enough money to keep the lights on and to buy new rare books to look at.

I swear to you: nobody in the book business would bat an eye at Aziraphale. Especially if his shop had been there for generations. They would assume that the occasional loose encyclopedia plate sale would be enough to make rent, or that Mr. Fell had business and land holdings elsewhere.

And I assume that though he doesn’t want to sell them, he would LOVE a curious browser. Antiquarian vendors often adore it when you ask how to find a rare book, because the thrill of the hunt is often better than actually owning the volume. Anyone can have a private library, but owning a quaint little bookshop is a saucy way to brag and chat with other book lovers, and you can’t put that on your shelf at home.

I needed this, too, and really thank you for actually spelling it out for people.

🤣🤣🤣😂

OP made the post unrebloggable but said it's fine to screenshot and I'm in love with this

6060 notes at time of reblog...

trump dies of congestive heart failure before being sworn in charge to like cast to reblog

This is something that I've known about for nearly forever but I've come to realize that not everyone has a biology Aunt or doesn't end up learning about it in chemistry...

This, yes!¡!

No one reblogs on tumblr anymore.

No one leaves comments on Ao3 anymore.

Seriously people the lack of fandom interaction these days makes me genuinely depressed, it never used to be like this, makes me wonder what's the point of coming online to do anything anymore.

Reblog a post so other people can see it.

Leave a comment so the author doesn't feel like giving up.

Fandom cannot live on Likes or Kudos alone.

I have always been fascinated with history but this absolutely shows that we're still learning about it even today.🌍🌎🌏

I have a folder called Time is a Flat Circle in which I collect evidence of humanity. Here is most of them.

This is something I will see about getting myself, but the bit about the Always pads doesn't surprise me 😕

i learned that in August 2014 Women’s Voices for the Earth commissioned testing of four types of Always menstrual pads, manufactured by Procter & Gamble. The certified laboratory STAT Analysis Corporation analyzed the products for volatile organic compound.

“The results of the testing indicate that both scented and unscented Always pads emit toxic chemicals, including chemicals identified by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services National Toxicology Program, the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, and the State of California Environmental Protection Agency as carcinogens, and reproductive and developmental toxins. None of these chemicals are disclosed on the product by the manufacturer.” (x)
