Rule one of fandom: there are some things that only exist for us.
Don’t send actors fics
Don’t give them explicit art ever
Don’t tag them in rpf questions or theories
Don’t try to bring them into fandom drama of any kind
Don’t hold them responsible for what the producers and writers decide
They’re still people. They have private lives, which do not include fandom.

cair–paravel: Libreria Acqua Alta, Venice.

Libreria Acqua Alta, Venice. Literally, ‘library of high water’, this bookshop floods during Venice’s acqua alta, so the books are all kept safe in floating vessels, such as gondolas, boats and bathtubs.

If you thought I wouldn’t find a way to reference Britney Spears in my very serious Honors thesis,
You’d be wrong

Sometimes you have to just treat yourself like an overtired toddler.
“Okay, as soon as you finish this assignment you can take a little nap.”
“You just cleaned your room, good job!”
“Hmm..maybe eating a snack will stop you from wanting to cry.”
Sometimes? I think you mean all of the time.

The only thing that’d be more potentially embarrassing than my internet history would be my calculator history, a chronicle of all the painfully simple math I couldn’t manage to do in my head.

Potentially for good.
UPDATE: 8/7/2018
TW: School shooting mention
A user played a blank card threatening to shoot up a certain school. Another player in the match reported it to the FBI, and, due to the legal costs racking up against the person running the servers, PYX has been closed.
It wasn’t the admin’s fault, it was a dumb player who has since been arrested.

Her tuition so damn high she can wear whatever tf she wants
Spite goals
There’s a better thing to her story. She CONTINUED her thesis in her underwear and afterward her professor said “what would your mother think wearing those kinds of clothes”
And she responded “my mother’s a feminist also a gender and sexuality studies professor. She’s fine with my shorts”
i think the best part is that a majority of the class also stripped with her in solidarity
Just to give a little more perspective after reading the story:
The sequence of events is a little jumbled in the telling above. The actual chastising from the teacher came days before the woman’s thesis, during a practice run of her presentation. This was not a spur-of-the-moment thing where she just whipped off her clothes for the sake of being angry. Chai took the time to think things through before deciding this was the way she wanted to protest. She used critical thinking and level-headedness to decide instead of becoming volatile and aggressive, she would choose non-violent protest.
I just don’t like the way the story’s being told by others because it makes her come across as “overly-emotional” and “erratic” (as women often do in the media, because it’s easier to attribute extreme action to “hysteria”), whereas in actual news reports, she had time to think about her decision and choose the best way to handle what happened to her.

New York Post
CBS
Huffington Post
Okay but none of these sources give the most important part, which was that her thesis was about the rehabilitation of displaced people and refugees, for her class “Acting in Public: Performance in Everyday Life”. So the fact that the professor’s first comment on such an important topic was about what she was wearing was pretty damning.
And what’s more, she didn’t just protest. She gave a speech on how people are judged according to other’s (incorrect) perceptions of their performance and asked the people in the room to stop performing with her, to fight back against dehumanization caused by having the wrong performance. She didn’t just address the core of the problem, she tied it into her thesis and made it part of her presentation.
