monarchies in the 21st cent are so funny. “we used to claim this one super wealthy family was appointed divine rights by a giant bearded guy in the sky, but that excuse doesn’t fly anymore. so now the reason is because that’s the way it already was”
“ceremonial figureheads are an important part of our heritage” great! stick em in a museum with the rest of the relics
This is the best description I’ve heard for this method, I always thought it was bullshit because I never heard a description that actually explained how to do this other than “tap your head 20 times”.
I have anxiety-induced hissing, which sounds/feels different from sound-induced tinnitus (which I have also experience). Sound-based tinnitus actually sounds like you’re “hearing” something in your ears, whilst the hissing I have feels like it’s “inside my head”, if that makes sense. But this technique still helps!!
Here’s a visual I found because I couldn’t understand the instructions well
My ringing just went away for the first time in years. What is this blissful quiet.
wait wait i gotta try this, i don’t think i’ve had Actual Silence since i was like 5
I really like how many of the world’s most iconic structures and places are just right next to some of the most mundane stuff imaginable, for example
Stonehenge
Is right next to a busy road
The Pyramids of Giza
Are at the outskirts of Cairo
Niagara Falls
Are part of the town of the same name
And Agrippa’s Pantheon
Is crammed inside downtown Rome
It just so interesting to notice.
I lived in Nîmes for three years, and the mundane feeling I got whenever I would walk from my apartment, by the Roman coloseum in the city which was 2000+ years old, and continue with my life because it was just sort of there still surprises me when I think about it.
This post is just that feeling put into words and pictures.
YEAHHHHH ok. I need to post about this but uh. Tumblr has a very fun glitch! If you press R ONCE on the desktop ver of the site, it will reblog the focused post instantly, no tag editing or blog selection. it may accidentally post it a couple more times , but that’s it.
however. if you fucking hold R? it’ll reblog the post instantly too, but MULTIPLE TIMES INSTANTLY. like I hit post limit bc I thought it wasn’t actually reblogging the post. I only held the r button for a solit 10 seconds for it to reblog that post 200+ TIMES. my big ass mistake
either use or abuse it is up to you, but I reported it to Tumblr bc holy fuck dude. that’s too much instant power
Tumblr Support just said this is a feature, not a glitch.
