The time of the swim is fast approaching! This morning’s practice swim was a cool 2.2km, so just about 1/3 of what I’ll need to do to meet my swimming goal. As for the fundraising goal, that comes from folks like you, in whatever amount you can spare. Right now we’re at $225 and the fundraising minimum is $350 - that could be $13 from just 10 people. I know it’s hard these days, but this money is being raised to support the only critical care air ambulance in Maine - a profoundly essential service for anyone who lives, works, or plays in the Pine Tree State.

The 4 approaches to “orphaned etymology” problems in fiction
1. Obviously we can’t call it French toast if there’s no France so we’re just gonna replace it with something else.
2. The word abattoir sounds too French so it wouldn’t make sense for it to be here without a France. Even though we use English without there being an England.
3. This is called a Ming vase because when you tap it it makes a “Ming!” sound.
4. I am JRR Tolkien and every single word I write has a fictional etymology attached to it that I am translating into English for your convenience.

sending your friends terrible tumblr posts is a love language
[id: three drawings of a cartoon person laying on a bed holding their phone.
first image, there is a speech bubble pointing to the phone showing the tumblr mobile dash with a post that says “cursed shit” and a reblog on it that says “even more cursed shit”. the person looks disgusted.
second image, a thought bubble appears next to the person of two other people labeled “friends” with the same disgusted reaction. the person looks pensive.
third image, the person has a mischievous grin and the phone has a speech bubble that simply says “send” with the send symbol. end id]
