there's a kind of person called a "bad person" and if we just kill all of those guys everything will be great
I keep seeing people making fun of using growled, hissed, roared, snarled etc in writing and it’s like.
have you never heard someone speak with the gravel in their voice when they get angry? Because that’s what a growl is.
Have you never heard someone sharply whisper something through the thin space of their teeth? Or when your mother sharply told you to stop it in public as a kid when you were acting up/being too loud? Because that’s what a hiss is.
Have you never heard a man get so blackout angry that their voice BOOMS through the house? Because that’s what a roar is.
Have you never seen someone bare their teeth while talking to accentuate their frustration or anger while speaking with a vicious tone? Because that’s what snarling is.
It’s not meant to be a literal animal noise. For the love of god, not every description is literal. I get some people are genuinely confused, but also some of these people are genuinely unimaginative as fuck.
1bedroom/1bath’s being $1800+…… we have to start lighting landlords on fire. i’m so serious
British people will get so mad online about Americans microwaving their hot water for tea instead of using a Proper Tea Kettle and then go pronounce Pico de Gallo as "Picko de Gallow" and say that s'mores are "an Italian meringue sandwiched between two ganache-covered digestives" on live television
Remember when Paul Hollywood made challah with milk and said it was commonly eaten for Passover 💀
I’m sorry WHAT? Is it not extremely common to clean a microwave by microwaving water and lemon juice so it boils and the steam makes it easy to wipe down… I’ve literally never heard of water exploding in the microwave
I think the person who left those tags is under a genie's curse or something because no one I have ever met has ever fucked up so badly that their water exploded in the microwave
No, this is a real thing- you can microwave water and it's fine, just don't microwave water in a new mug. When water boils, the first few bubbles need something to form on, and sometimes physics gets weird with super super smooth surfaces and the bubbles have nowhere to form. So then when you grab the mug and disturb the water, it can spontaneously boil, which is startling, causing you to dump boiling water over your hand. Boiling water burns are really serious, too! So it's not that microwaving water is inherently unsafe, just that you should watch out if you're microwaving it to boiling or near-boiling temperatures.
Okay now THIS is a useful addition. I have microwaved water for tea daily to weekly for over five years and this has never happened to me -- likely because I almost always use old mugs and keep an eye on my water to see when it comes to a boil. Interesting science facts, the more you know ig!
"it's not queer fiction unless the queerness is explicitly declared in the text according to currently accepted terminology and in a way that meets the approval of the entire audience" I mean follow your heart I guess but I trust myself as a queer person to recognise queer themes
"but doesn't this risk giving the author undue credit for queer representation" I do not care about the author
“can you explain this gap in your employment history” I hiked the Appalachian Trail 8 times real fast. Then I got attacked by a bear in Maine and was in a coma for 6 months. I’m all good now. Taught me about adversity.

Anonymous asked:
Do you take Silmarillion and Rings of Power requests?
The Silmarillion? Absolutely! I have a decent amount of Silmarilion gifsets, so send them away :)
As for the other one… No. I woud really appreciate it if you never mentioned The-Abominationed-That-Shall-Not-Be-Named to me again. Seriously. It’s sad that we live in a world where the said abomination ever happened and its name is associated with our beloved Professor. But no. Not in my presence. No.
