There will be a day I don’t reblog this after seeing it on my dash. Today is not that day.
No but – to anyone who doesn’t know a single magpie is bad. There’s a nursery rhyme for it;
“ One for sorrow, Two for joy, Three for a girl, Four for a boy, Five for silver, Six for gold, Seven for a secret, Never to be told. Eight for a wish, Nine for a kiss, Ten for a bird, You must not miss.”
He knows he must be fucked if there’s only one Magpie
I’m not gonna say I was looking for something else entirely because I was in fact trying to find a gif of Chris Evans when I came across this, but this is not what I was looking for. And yet it is possibly the best thing I’ve ever found.
What the hell even is Chris Evans. What the hell.

Watching the tags pile up on this post gives me faith in humanity. It’s like being wrapped in a warm autumn blanket in front of a toasty fire with wholesome friends.
I meeeaaaaan……. some of this is valid and reasonable. Some of it’s tropes you probably should actually look at critically if you’re going to use them. Some of it can be interesting worldbuilding, if you want to make a thing of it. But if it’s not actually relevant to the story or characters, a lot of this isn’t fucking NECESSARY and I’m never going to care, as a reader – by the time you’re fussing about who domesticated WHEAT, for fuck’s sake……
Idk, dude, maybe read another genre? I’m getting the feeling epic fantasy is maybe not your thing.
I love worldbuilding and will write endless unimportant details no one but me is ever going to see, but at the end of the day I am writing a fucking story, not a fantasy almanac and encyclopedia.
Babe, I love you, but you are literally the person who has spent several weeks figuring out realistic weather patterns for your fantasy world.
Like i am not arguing your point bc it’s a very good point that tbqh i agree with, but i’m just losing my shit because you are exactly the kind of person who thinks about shit like who domesticated wheat in your own fantasy novels.
Okay first of all the weather actually does matter a lot shut up.
But also there’s a big fucking difference between caring about large scale things like climate and geography and politics, and acting like it’s a failing on an author’s part that they didn’t bother to explain shit like the origins of agriculture in the world they created.
NO NO I AGREE, there is a large difference, and he needs to get over himself, but like. You could just make up weather. Like, to most people, the weather realism is as unimportant as the origins of agriculture.
[Image description: Four photos arranged in a square grid to be read from right to left, in the How People Shower meme format. The subject of all four photos is Miles, a light skinned autistic person with short brown hair and no shirt on standing inside of a shower.
The first photo shows Miles looking at the camera with a mild smiling expression and his fingers touched to his chin thoughtfully. The text says, “How do autistic people shower?”
The next photo shows Miles with wet hair and shrugging while looking at the camera with raised eyebrows and a slight frown. The text says, “Same as you neurotypicals.”
The third photo shows Miles with his face under the shower spray. His eyes are shut tight against the water. The text says, “First we get nice and wet…”
The last photo shows Miles with his wet hair pushed back from his face, holding a hardcover book and looking at the camera with a mischievous expression. There is a piece of paper with the word TRAINS written on it taped onto the cover of the book, so that it appears to read “The Little Book of TRAINS” The punchline text says, “Then we stay there all day and don’t socialise.”]
