206 bones. 5 major organs. 60,000 miles of blood vessels. All it takes is time. Days. Months. Years, spent memorizing the finite ways there are to hurt and break a man. Preparing for all of them. I’ve escaped from every conceivable deathtrap. Ten times. A dozen times. I can slow my breathing and metabolism to control panic and conserve air. Straitjacket’s kindergarten. Locks, too. Benchpressing a pine coffin lid through 600 pounds of loose soil that’s filling your mouth crushing your lungs flat and shredding your dehydrated muscles. That’s harder. But far from impossible.
Roald Dahl is my absolute favorite writer, and I’ve never seen this cover, but it’s lovely
Switch Bitch by Roald Dahl
Currently reading. I love this guy and his smutty ways. Thank you Roald.

this is the way i love children best: quietly tortured by the idea of marshmallows (& puppies, & toys, & etc)
I have heard about the marshmallow test a few times before, but this is the first time I have seen it played out in video.
You put a marshmallow in front of a child and tell them that they can either eat it now, or they can have 2 marshmallows if they can save it until you are back in the room.
Just amazing to watch the decision making happening.

I could no joke watch a live feed of this all day long, like in a little window at the top of my computer screen. (Related is this from the New Yorker.)
I was in giggle fits the entire time I watched this. It’s so fun watching kids try sooooo hard to be good.
I’ve started writing again. Is it terrifying? Yes. Yes it is. Check it out, if you like. I’m doing it with my friend, Aubree. We post under our names. enjoy… ?

The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don’t just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.

Someone is knitting up “International Cat Hats”. This is Turkey.
Other people’s imaginations are far greater than my own.

is this woman directly ripping off Mark Ryden? I thought it looked eerily familiar. it seems like such a unique and deliberate style, how can you copy it without the inevitable comparison.
