So my village has a charity christmas fair on the last sunday before christmas every year. My sister is in charge of organizing prizes for the lottery/tombola, and she always writes to local businesses to donate items, gift cards, whatever. The companies are usually really generous, it’s awesome. First prize is s flat screen tv from a electronics dealer.
We have one shop for home decor that’s sadly giving up its business, and donated a whole box of glass decorations.
Among them, this glass shrimp. In a fancy jewelry box.
I’m the only one who loves him 🥺❤. My sister wanted to throw it in the bin because ‘who would want a glass shrimp’.
So.
Like and Reblog if you’d want to win a glass shrimp in a tombola, i guess? Let’s save him from the bin!
Playing pokemon today and had a nice little picnic and I left it running for 5 minutes when I went to pee, and I came back to 6 fucking eggs in my basket. This is my party.
They are all male except my goddamn houndoom. I have 6 houndour eggs from when I looked away for a couple of minutes, and as someone with no idea about egg groups I have no idea who the father is.
something to be said in the fact that in the end it wasn’t the manufactured cringeposting that drove them off but the sincere reality of the tumblr ecosystem
Noticed the irony of this not having a text ID, so:
[ID: a screenshot from twitter. User @/kestert is replying to @/neilhimself and @/tomgauld and says: I agree that they’re books, but how do you feel about when people say they are “reading” an audiobook rather than listening to it?
Neil Gaiman has quote-tweeted this to reply, saying: Absolutely fine. How do you feel when blind people say they’re reading a Braille book rather than touching it?
Dr Emily Friedman @/friede has replied to this tweet on 17th July 2022, saying: Book historian who tells students constantly that if they listen to the audiobook, they are literally reading 18th century novels the way the large chunk of the original audience experienced the book. Silent, solitary reading by eye alone is so, so recent!
