i was gonna make a joke about how the massachusetts candle probably smells like a drug deal in the dunkin donuts parking lot but then i checked and it legitimately smells like dunkin coffee i’m done 

and i was going to make a joke about how the illinois candle just smells like cornfields and wheat fields but then i too checked and it literally does

me: what does the maine one smell like… snow? lighthouses?

website: fresh Maine blueberries,

me, looking down at my clothes stained beyond recognition from hours spent blueberry raking: *whispers* of course……

Maryland smells like old bay and salt

This is accurate

The website is https://homesickcandles.com

checked arizona just for shits and giggles and it smells like SAND goodnight

Washington is Cherries, coffee, and rain. Accurate.

You have no idea how pleased I was to see that there are two California candles. One for North and one for South. Oh and they seem to also have special ones for Los Angeles and San Francisco!

That’s about right for Indiana.

@copperbadge There is an Illinois candle AND a Chicago candle!

I appreciate that the Chicago candle smells like the chocolate factory that makes downtown smell like chocolate sometimes, but let’s be real, it should smell like pee and corruption. 

Does Iowa smell like corn and soybeans, or hogs? Because I can tell you what I’m NOT buying, if it’s the latter.

Honestly, as a German I can not quite understand the obsession of the English speaking world with the question whether a word exists or not. If you have to express something for which there is no word, you have to make a new one, preferably by combining well-known words, and in the very same moment it starts to exist. Agree?

Deutsche Freunde, could you please create for me a word for the extreme depression I feel when I bend down to pick up a piece of litter and discover two more pieces of litter?

    • um = around
    • die Welt = world
  • die Umwelt = environment
    • ver = prefix to indicate something difficult or negative, a change that leads to deterioration or even destruction that is difficult to reverse or to undo, or a strong negative change of the mental state of a person
    • der Müll = garbage, trash, rubbish, litter
    • -ung = -ing
  • die Vermüllung = littering
    • ver- = see before
    • zweifeln = to doubt
    • -ung = see before
  • die Verzweiflung = despair, exasperation, desperation

die Umweltvermüllungsverzweiflung = …

This is a german compound on the spot master class and I am LIVING

#my german is still too basic for this but I desperately want a compound word for how much these compound words piss me off

  • das Monster = monster
  • das Wort = word
  • der Groll = grudge, anger, malice, rancor

der Monsterwortgroll = …

Monsterwortbildungsimitationsunfähigkeitsverzweiflungsgroll

  • die Bildung = formation
  • die Imitation = imitation
    • un- = un-, in-
    • fähig = able
    • -keit = -ility
  • die Unfähigkeit = inability

der Monsterwortbildungsimitationsunfähigkeitsverzweiflungsgroll = anger about the inability to imitate the formation of monster words

I wish it need not happened in my time,” said Frodo.
“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

I don’t think there’s any quote more suitable for today (9 November 2016)

brotherflora:

Things you shouldn’t ask or say to someone on the schizophrenia spectrum or it will be rude:

“Do you want to hurt people?” (We’re statistically more likely to be hurt and manipulated by others.)

“Do you see anything right now?” (Makes us uncomfortable and paranoid and causes us to focus on what’s reality and what’s not)

“Are you hearing voices right now?”/“what do the voices say about me?” (We aren’t here for your entertainment, and this will make us uncomfortable and distrustful of you. And same as above comment.)

“That’s so cool!” (It’s a disorder and disability that is painful and hard to live with)

“I wish I had that” (Lord, I wish I was exaggerating.)

“So, you have multiple people in your head?” (May fuel a delusion, or you’re confusing it with Dissociative Personality Disorder)

“Are you dangerous?” (If we didn’t seem dangerous before telling you, why do we seem dangerous now? Again, we’re more likely to be abused and to hurt ourselves.)

“What medications are you on?” (Too Personal. You don’t need to know that.)

“Maybe it’s spiritual/real.”(any theory that it’s not a mental illness can cause confusion, paranoia, mistrust, fuel a delusion, or feeling misunderstood.)

“We’re all a little crazy, haha!” (Our brains look and work differently than majority of the population. It’s not comparable to bad or weird choices and quirks you have.)

“Do you trust me?”/“You trust me though, right?” (If we do, it could make us feel worried you doubt us. If we don’t, it’ll make us uncomfortable and feel like lying or fuel our mistrust.)

“You dont seem like you have schizophrenia/schizoid/schizoaffective/schizotypal..” (We aren’t all the same, and a lot of us are in different places of coping and have different severity of symptoms and how we hide them. It’s exhausting hiding and coping with our symptoms. Could also fuel a delusion of not being sick. Just don’t say that.)

“I knew someone with that.” (We really don’t care; that person isn’t us.)

Things you can say without being rude if someone lets you know they have a schizophrenia spectrum disorder:

“Is there anything I need to know about how this affects you?”

“Will there be times you’d like my support?”

“How can I support you if you need it?”

“Thanks for you letting me know/Thanks for opening up about that”

“Is there anything I need to look out for to make sure you’re safe and comfortable?”

“Is it alright if I ask a few questions so I have a better understanding?”

“Oh, okay.
