A huge map of Ankh-Morpork. You need to click through to this, it’s awesome.
CHARACTER: Abed Nadir
Abed may claim to be half-Palestinian and half-Polish, but I’m pretty sure he’s Tumblr in human form.
He’s very Tumblr. And he’s back March 15th. Cool, cool. Cool, cool, cool.
#[whatever the hashtag ends up being]
this has a deeper meaning. the light bulb represents an idea of an individual and the mouse trap represents how quick society is to destroy that idea.
shut up its a light bulb falling on a mouse trap
this is someone dying while under an MRI scan.
listen here cum-slut, I bet you 5 million dollars that you don’t own a light bulb . But guess what? I own 7. And I can tell you right now that a light bulb would never just fall into something like a mouse trap. They’ll rarely walk directly into water.
But say that your idiotic theory is correct.
Say it did actually fall into it.
That appliance still probably died.
Is that still funny to you? Do you still get your kicks out of knowing that that light bulb was probably terrified and opening its mouth to scream in that last panel?
And if you say yes then you seriously disgust me as a human being.
Say hello to mechanically separated chicken
Tragically beautiful.
Wow, okay, at least put a fucking trigger warning on this. I lost a lightbulb to mousetrap violence and I don’t want to see this shit on my dash being glorified by some hipster assholes.
The only thing I love more than Tumblr are posts making fun of Tumblr on Tumblr #META

“We are the people of the book. We love our books. We fill our houses with books. We treasure books we inherit from our parents, and we cherish the idea of passing those books on to our children. Indeed, how many of us started reading with a beloved book that belonged to one of our parents? We force worthy books on our friends, and we insist that they read them. We even feel a weird kinship for the people we see on buses or airplanes reading our books, the books that we claim. If anyone tries to take away our books—some oppressive government, some censor gone off the rails—we would defend them with everything that we have. We know our tribespeople when we visit their homes because every wall is lined with books. There are teetering piles of books beside the bed and on the floor; there are masses of swollen paperbacks in the bathroom. Our books are us. They are our outboard memory banks and they contain the moral, intellectual, and imaginative influences that make us the people we are today.”
