Dear baby boomer who told me “if you hate your job, maybe you should work somewhere else”

1. Fuck you, I don’t hate my job. I just hate the coworker who has to challenge every thing I do. 2. You wouldn’t know a good wrap from a bad wrap. If I listened to my coworker, all the contents would have fallen out.

Icarus. The original myth had two parts. Daedalus said to his son, ‘I fashioned these wings for you. Two rules. Don’t fly too high, or the sun will melt the wax. But, more important, son, don’t fly too low. Because if you fly too low, the water and the waves will surely weigh down the wings, and you will die.’ We’ve left out the second part of the myth. We don’t say to people anymore, ‘Don’t fly too low.’ All we do from the time they are 4 years old is warn them against hubris. We have created this industrially led structure that says: How dare you.

flying too high melted his wings, yea, but it was the ocean that killed him in the end

PSA to all now that is is Pumpkin Spice Season

renstability:

From someone who worked at starbucks. If you have a milk/dairy allergy AT ALL. DO NOT. I repeat. DO NOT. Drink Pumpkin Spice.

It contains dairy IN the syrup that is used to make the drink. Even if you get it made with soy, you will still be getting doses of dairy in there. 

Depending on the severity and intolerance it can and will cause reactions. I found that as a barista I was constantly warning people about the dairy in the product. No one ever seemed to tell them that there was dairy in the mix. More times than I can count I heard people realize that’s why they kept having reactions, or that’s why it made them sick.

People legitimately do not know that pumpkin spice no matter what you do will always contain some amount of dairy.

I don’t like being political but extremist republicans can fuck right off because you’re supporting a stance that ruins peoples’ lives, equal rights, freedoms, and happiness.

That is not Christian.

That is not American.

I just want a zombie apocalypse movie where the infection is sexually transmitted so in the end only a ragged band of asexuals are left to save the world

#as well as celibate ppl lol… or just virgins#but aight (–folkloriic)

a gang of children, a nun, and a handful of asexuals, accompanied by like… one really unpleasant dudebro or something. 

deleted scene: unpleasant dudebro refusing to die a virgin, attempts to have sex with a zombie. Even the zombie turns him down. 

OH, also the zombie infection is 100% treatable but someone falsely claims that it it causes homosexuality with faked results in an effort to sell their own version which does nothing.

see that couple walking through a blocked off guarded area full of snipers and security just casually walking right on through even though this area should be really well guarded?

yeah that’s p much us lol

This kind of thing makes me happy that I just quit watching all together.

This graphic is fabulous. It represents a tiny crash course in rhetoric. Learn these things. Put them on your wall. Whisper them into the breeze. These are THINGS TO KNOW.

Yeesssssssssss.

Science shows school should start much later

Speaking at the British Science Festival in Bradford, England, on Tuesday, neuroscientist and sleep advocate Paul Kelley argued schoolchildren and their adult counterparts should should have much later starts. He suggested a start time as late as 10 a.m. for schools. Such a change could lead to marked improvement in test scores.
