SHE GONNA TRY TO CALL MR.KRABS ON ME YALL

SHE GONNA TRY TO CONTACT BIKINI BOTTOM

She is going to call a phone number and ask, “Is this the Krusty Krab?”

And the person who answered the phone will have a choice to make.

Today I learned

Free Audiobooks and Ebooks on OVERDRIVE.

Free Graphic Novels (DC, Marvel, Image, etc), Music, TV shows, and music on HOOPLA.

Free music that you can KEEP on FREEGAL

You are PAYING for all this with your tax money – USE THEM. Most likely systems will have all 3 or 2 out of 3, so if you aren’t sure call your local library’s reference/information desk and how you can get set-up or started.

Hey, highkey from a library worker: 

Overdrive has a new mobile app called LIBBY I find it easier to use.  It’s the same content as Overdrive just better for mobile.  Overdrive and Libby both let you send items to your kindle as well.

-“mommy, the kids at school are mean to me!”

-“OH, WHAT, ARE U #TRIGGERED???, LIFE ISNT UR #SAFE SPACE LMAO”

Stay away from children for the rest of your lives please

The people who hate this are probably the ones traumatizing their children

this is a show for 3 – 6 year olds what is WRONG with these monsters???

Fun fact, sesame street was created to fill the gap in education for children whose families could not afford to send them to preschool. Sesame street taught basic math and phonics as well as interpersonal skills so that children below the poverty line weren’t starting elementary school behind their more privileged classmates.

Here sesame street is trying to fill a gap where supportive adults should be. Where there should be a teacher or a family member or a counselor to help, for whatever reason, there isn’t, so Sesame Street is stepping in.

This breed of person has always hated Sesame Street. They hated it for showing black and white children playing together. They hated it for giving children of color the head start that rich white families were paying for. They hated it for Bert and Ernie for showing two MEN who LIVED TOGETHER, for the married black nurse who lived on sesame street when it was first released, and for them explaining death. I feel like there was a pregnancy at some point in its early days and they would have REALLY hated that.

These days they don’t (usually) say “I’m not letting my kid watch anything with black kids in it” but they sure throw a tantrum in the youtube comments when Sesame Street DARES to show an autistic girl playing with non-autistic children and being treated like shes anyone else. They lose their shit when Sesame Street has to explain incarceration to 5 year olds. And the muppet in south africa with HIV? Hoo boy.

They hate everything Sesame Street stands for and tries to provide. They always have. We just have to ignore them and keep supporting the show. Or tell them to shut the fuck up and keep supporting the show. Either way Sesame Street will outlive them.

Okay, last election post.

Democrats won with young people by a margin of 35-40 points. That is the largest age gap in American history. It has no historical precedent. Young people overwhelmingly rejecting one political party in such a high number has literally never happened before.

Republicans have literally no future – and also, we young people who should control our own future should fucking revolt for every moment they are in power.

Every time I see a post about updog I’m torn between not wanting to fall for it and wanting to help the poster complete their joke.

okay but what’s updog ?

Updog is a long sausage in a bun often served with ketchup, mustard, onion e, and/or relish.

No, that’s a hotdog. An updog is when a new version or patch of an application is released

You’re thinking of update. Updog is when you end a sentence with a rising intonation.

No, that’s uptalk.  You’re thinking of the fourth-largest city in Sweden.

surely that’s Uppsala, whereas Updog is the giant spider in Harry Potter.

That’s Aragog. Updog is a symbol conventionally used for an arbitrarily small number in analysis proofs

You’re thinking of epsilon. Updog is an upward-moving air current.

no that’s an updraft

updog isn’t a noun at all, it’s a verb; it basically means to chew someone out, or harshly lecture them

No, that’s upbraid. An updog is a small dog that likes cuddling on people’s laps.

No that’s a puppydog. An updog is when the Mets win.

No that’s an upset. An updog is the modern version of a henway.

What’s a henway?

Oh, about 5 pounds.

Normal Horoscope:

normal-horoscopes:

Aries: Attention is a finite resource, don’t waste it knowingly.

Taurus: Just because you say you’re crazy doesn’t mean you are.

Gemini: Silence is the most intricate and flavorful part of language. It can communicate things that language cannot.

Cancer: Astral projection is not to be used for petty crime. Its still sexual harassment and you seriously do not want to deal with the law on that side of the tracks.

Leo: Always ask yourself: What am I going to do about it? Then ask yourself: Is that legal? Then ask yourself: should it be?

Virgo: Life is just a series of bad decisions that turned out to be really fun.

Libra: Yes, pain makes you feel alive but so does eating a damn good sandwich.

Scorpio: Fear will unmake you.

Ophiuchus: Sage keeps away demons, not taxes.

Sagittarius: You will meet the same fate as American former President William McKinley. Wait, hang on. The stars are talking to me. Okay the exact opposite of that.

Capricorn:  Avoid anyone carrying a katana. They’re either a weirdo or a samurai and you shouldn’t bother either. 

Aquarius: Wear your badges proudly! Pin them directly to your exposed skin! Its pride blood!

Pisces: You are on every globe somewhere.
