Just realized I’ve never said this on here before but if you’re a Jason Todd lover and you want to cry go ahead and listen to Trophy Case by Anthony Gargiula trust me.
I feel like Goncharov needs to be added to this list asap!
Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.
a better non-binary meme for yall
(now with 200% less alienation to transfem folks!)
it is dangerously fuckoff hot survival tips
- if you don’t have air conditioning, try to go someplace that does. The library? the mall? can you swing a couple nights at a cheap hotel? hang out early/late at your work?
- HYDRATION: keep something liquid within arms reach, drink continuously. If you are sweating a lot, just water might not do it. I tend to DIY oral rehydration solution with a liter of water, a spoonful-ish of lemon juice, a teaspoon or so of sugar and a pinch of salt. You can also do ~a tablespoon of sugar and ½ teaspoon salt to a liter (~4 cups) of water, but the lemon juice makes it taste less like ass. The rule of thumb is that it shouldn’t be saltier than tears. I usually make it so I can tell there’s salt in there but it doesn’t actually taste salty if that makes any sense…
(if you don’t have measuring spoons, a tablespoon is a big soup-size spoon and a teaspoon is a little spoon. This stuff does not have to be precise, it’s not like baking which is actual chemistry)
- Watered-down fruit juice + salty snack food is both good for you and tastes fucking amazing when it’s hot (my favorite snack ever was half mango juice/half water and a can of Pringles on a really hot day)
- eat small meals but eat something. your body is working hard to keep you cool, it does need fuel.
- take it slow: walk slowly enough that you’re not out of breath, the last thing you need is to heat yourself up MORE
- if you can’t get air conditioning, at least make sure air is MOVING: sit in front of a fan or something
- if it isn’t insanely humid, hanging a wet towel in front of a fan can make things cooler. If you are in, say, DC, where it’s so humid it’s basically an outdoor steam bath, this will not help much if at all
- cold showers. a couple times a day, or hell, every hour if you want. Definitely right before bed
- fill a bottle with ice water and roll it around behind your neck. Your life will immediately suck at least 15% less.
- if you feel dizzy, your pulse is shallow and fast, or you have other symptoms of heat exhaustion, this is now a Serious Medical Problem. If you develop a fever, nausea or vomiting, or pass out, you may have heat stroke, which is an Actual Medical Emergency, get to urgent care or the ER right away.
- if you feel nauseated, have a headache, your pee is dark colored and/or you haven’t peed all day, you are probably dehydrated. See above re: oral rehydration. Don’t drink a bunch real fast, you’ll probably throw it up. Instead, drink slowly but KEEP DRINKING. If for whatever reason you can’t manage this, you have an Actual Medical Emergency, get to urgent care or the ER right away.
- I AM NOT A DOCTOR this is not medical advice please be careful and call an actual doctor if you’re worried
“check the syllabus” i NEVER check the syllabus i just figure it out as i go

The reason Goncharov (1973) is such a hit is because it allows Tumblr to unironically participate in its national sport:
