So there’s this famous phrase in Genesis, “לא טוב היות האדם לבדו" (“lo tov heyot ha'adam l'vado”), which means “it is not good for man to be alone.” I was thinking today that it might make a nice Jewish friendship bracelet or wedding ring inscription or something. Problem is, if you try to split it up it becomes

לא טוב היות
האדם לבדו

“Existence is not good.”
“Man is alone.”

All the other ways of splitting them up are similarly awful. And on the one hand, I think this is really kind of beautiful—how this phrase, which is about togetherness, is so beautiful as a whole but cannot be broken into parts without itself becoming splintered and distorted. The language mirrors the very nature of humanity that it describes.

But on the other hand it totally ruined my friendship bracelet idea so @G-d this is a callout post

“Aziraphale had tried to explain it to him once. The whole point, he’d said–this was somewhere around 1020, when they’d first reached their little Arrangement–the whole point was that when a human was good or bad it was because they wanted to be. Whereas people like Crowley and, of course, himself, were set in their ways right from the start. People couldn’t become truly holy, he said, unless they also had the opportunity to be definitively wicked. Crowley had thought about this for some time and, around about 1023, had said, Hang on, that only works, right, if you start everyone off equal, okay? You can’t start someone off in a muddy shack in the middle of a war zone and expect them to do as well as someone born in a castle. Ah, Aziraphale had said, that’s the good bit. The lower you start, the more opportunities you have. Crowley had said, That’s lunatic. No, said Aziraphale, it’s ineffable.”

“I’m not leaving ‘cause I’m scared, or because I think I’m not enough, because maybe for the first time in my life I know I am. I just love Nick so much; I don’t want him to lose his mom again. I just wanted you to know that one day, when Nick marries another lucky girl who is enough for you, and you’re playing with your grandkids, the flowers are blooming, and the birds are chirping, that it was because of me: a poor, raised by a single mother, low class, immigrant, nobody.”

So last week I tried moaning every time I ate something delicious.

It was vaguely uncomfortable and unnatural

I actually love the idea of doing this trying out fanfic/literary cliche’s out in real life, kinda wanna make up a list and undertake it as a challenge.

don’t forget to make your butthole flutter today

Guess someone’s eye color from 20 feet away.

Be careful with these. I started reading fanfiction three years ago and now I have to toe my shoes off to get my feet out.

But do you pad across rooms? 

Yes but I often give away my position when I huff.

FYI, I’m smirking at all y’all.

I’m resisting the urge to card my fingers through everybody’s hair.

This is as good a time as any to admit that right now I smell like coffee, sandalwood soap, and something uniquely myself.

I hate this post so much I clenched my fists and looked away, muscles bunching in my jaw. 

i’m so glad to see i’m not alone, i let out a breath i didn’t know i was holding

I’m grinning widely at this

I chuckled lightly upon reading this post.

I am in love with all of you, as l reblog this, but you’ll never know until we’re forced to share a bed because, FUCK YOU, Marriot!

I sighed dramatically while reading through this post, but cannot deny the truth within these words.

I don’t think I’ve ever been more viscerally angry about a Facebook recipe video. This shit burned my crops and stole my firstborn. I am absolutely appalled by this level of disrespect. I’m ready to fight.

UHM????

I felt myself go through all 7 stages of grief while watching this.

Every time I see outrage over a recipe video it’s either something normal that y’all haven’t encountered before or an affront to god and it’s always terrifying finding out the answer

before i watched the video i thought it was like a pumpkin spice cake with disproportionately yellow buttercream frosting and i am crying into my hands there is no god

Does anyone genuinely call their siblings sis, sister, little/big sis, bro, brother, little/big brother etc. as constantly as this appears to be portrayed in media? I’m extremely sceptical. Now, affectionally addressing them by something like “slug”, “toad”, “fool”, and “bitch”, or even dare I say it, their gotdamn name, is, from my experience, so much more natural. 

ok guys, reblog and put in the tag how you name your siblings

A six year old once asked me what adulthood is like.

“You can eat ice cream for dinner every night if you want,” I told him.

His face lit up.

“But you have to buy it yourself.”

I’ve never seen someone go from delighted to devastated as quickly as that little boy.

This is the most accurate description of adulthood I’ve ever heard.

this was literally my dinner 2 nights in a row during my trip to London
