Yo but you didn’t make any on women’s t-shirts. Some people – mostly women – are not shaped like rectangles. And honestly the irony of making shirts “for her” that AREN’T FOR HER is just killing me.
kids have no concept of anything. i walked into my kindergarten class and one kid asked me what my name was. when i said miss jones, he said “i like that name. did you know i’m in love with you”
i asked my four year old cousin how old he thought i was going to be at my next birthday and he said 8. im 23
once i told a 6 year old that i had finished school and was doing “more school” [university] and she asked “why haven’t you found anyone to marry then”
We were at a museum and I was asking for the student discount and my nine year old cousin looks up at me with his eyes wide and says “wait you’re a STUDENT??”
I used to babysit these three kids and the eldest who was around 11 at the time was talking about how adults are boring and when I told him I was an adult he said, “That’s not true, you’re my age”
our aunt teaches and she has this story about a little girl who really was always pretty quiet in class and then on the final day of kindergarten she just up and stated ‘i’m all teached now. i don’t need to be teached anymore. i’m done of being teached.’
once when i was 19, I told my little cousin that i was 19 and she looked up at me with huge eyes and went, “Does that mean you don’t have to bring an adult with you to the pool?”
My 6 year old cousin saw me driving for the first time, looked up at him mom and said “does that mean she is married now?”
I watched my dad and my niece (3 at the time) arguing over a pair of pants and whether or not they were also a dress. My neice’s argument was that they were, in fact, also a dress because they were blue.
I asked the kids in my daycare class what they thought I should be for Halloween and this little boy goes, “ooh I know! A pickle! You’d be such a good pickle”
On the first day of class with my favorite student of all time, I said, “Are you okay? You look like you have a question.” And she looked me right in the eyes and said, tremulously,
one thing that makes me sad about startrekverse is that alongside genuinely utopian things like “in the future there will be no poverty or hunger or crimes or illness” there is also “in the future there will be no religion” like what is this a john lennon song. i am sending you my least amused face
it saddens me that apparently a utopian future involves “”transcending”” religion which apparently universally and inherently holds humanity back?? whaaat. give me a break
i dont want to imagine a utopian SPACE FUTURE which has no, like, hijabi starfleet officers, or space rabbis bickering about what counts as “sunset” when you are on a space station. or what counts as “friday” for that matter
BUT MOST OF ALL
I DONT WANT TO IMAGINE A SPACE FUTURE IN WHICH EVERYONE DOES NOT VALIANTLY PRETEND THAT THERE IS NO ONE HOME ON THEIR STARSHIP WHEN THE MORMON MISSIONARY PODS COME BEETLING BY WITH THEIR DIGITAL PAMPHLETS
AND I AM WILLING TO BET THAT YOU DONT WANT TO IMAGINE THAT EITHER
i was nodding along all serious and then my tea came out my nose
“Captain, we’re being hailed”
“On Screen”
“Hello Captain, this is the Mormon Faith Ship Joseph Smith, have you thought about letting Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ into your life?”
“…You have reached the holographic life size double of Captain Pipistrellus, please leave a message after the beep. Um… beep?”
SPACE RABBIS THOUGH I HAVE ALL THE FEELINGS (also Jewish Julian Bashir like thank you @cosmictuesdays for inspiring me in this I just…I love it). And look my people (Jewish, Iranian/Syrian) are absolutely going to be debating what counts as sunset and whether or not a food is kosher and 😀
I want to see where pantheistic paganism goes when we have more than one planet, dude.
I also want to see the polytheists who are completely unfazed by the Prophets, and the syncretic practice people who adopt Kahless into their pantheons, and whether or not that offends or delights the Klingons or if the Klingons can even decide.
What happens with gods who are so intensely astrally associated when you’re no longer anywhere near That Sun or Those Planets or That Moon? I mean I know what happens with MY type of faith, but what about the others? Is Sol particularly special? Or is Apollo the god of ALL suns?
I am ashamed at 20 seconds I took to understand the pun
King Rhys of the dwarfs presented a dress of brimstoned rubber and leather to Lady Margolotta six months ago…
So says Nutt in Unseen Academicals, …and isn’t that just the most un-Margolotta dress imaginable? What if Margolotta and Rhys, as two women in power who both transgress the traditions of the institutions they govern, have a tradition of sending each other outrageously OOC and stereotypical gifts? Rhys has a cabinet full of beer jars made of gold, Margolotta has a closet full of black dresses in varying degrees of vampishness, and of course they can’t just throw them out or accidentally stuff them in a lit chimney or drop them into a river because politics (via ironhammer)
Not technically a quote, nor technically incorrect, but I feel like this belongs here because this is the kind of content I will cut me own throat to bring to you.
