I know this has been said a million times but it's wild to me that Americans have to wait until 21 to drink. You shouldn't be at the end of your degree before you can go clubbing.

I don't know anything about stamp collecting. Feel free to point and laugh.

Thinking about this image from the wikipedia page for biryani. Have you ever loved a food so much you put it on a stamp.

A screenshot of an Indian postage stamp. The main image is a bowl of biryani with yellow rice. The bowl appears to be red. The top left corner says '500' and the top right says 'Biryani' The text underneath reads: 'Biryani depicted on a 2017 Indian stamp'

Also also here's your evergreen reminder that Paddington is a refugee who arrived into the UK as an unnacompanied child. In the third film he gets a British passport and becomes a citizen, but he arrived 'illegaly'. Everyone deserves a home here, no matter what.

They grow up so fast. As we will see, Paddington himself has almost certainly reached the age of ursine majority, whatever that might be. When I took my

It's also got a lot to say (even if in jest ) about prison reform. If you treat prisoners like people and give them better conditions to live in, maybe their behaviour will change for the better, too.

My annual reminder to watch Paddington 2. Unironically a 10/10 film.

Aunt Lucy says 'If you’re kind and polite, the world will be right', and genuinely, yeah. Sometimes all we need to do is to show kindness to people, even if it doesn't seem like they deserve it.

Absolutely bonkers that tuition fees are increasing again. My old uni is axing a lot of its staff but increasing students. Make this shit make sense.

Problem with TERFs these days is that they don't even try anymore. This isn't low hanging fruit, the fruit has been spilled on the super market floor, and Hendrix if fumbling for loose grapes.

I'm sobbing I finally caught this baby. Of course my fave would be one of the hardest to obtain in the entire series. Shaymin my beloved.

Shapiro babes, if a writer is stuck on a scene, the move on and come back to it later. An AI *could* transition a scene (whatever that means in this context), but it would be dogshit and also is actively being used to steal jobs from creatives.

I know this isnt the point but im still beefing with FB over not showing me a very serious post from my friend for a solid week (he's ok). I check the app daily and it just never showed for me.

I see pieces like this a lot, often w/ a spin of lamenting cultural degeneration, but reading is a LABOR issue, it’s declined because so many people are working overtime or two jobs & employers expect after hours work. France has Earth’s highest reading rate b/c long lunch breaks & labor protections
