recovery is not ‘soon i will be untouched, perfect, and in a permanent state of bliss. i will be healed and all will be well, forever.’
recovery is ‘i will continue to survive despite what happens, i will find ways to cope instead of continually tearing myself down. i will recover and will see myself in a light that i never thought was possible.’
“I’m hugely lucky because people always tend to be very, very nice, particularly playing a character like Brienne of Tarth, people can be very enthusiastic…To one extent…”
…But why do you need an object to go to the bathroom? Does it unlock the magic bathroom door?
a hall pass is a thing you can show to school staff to prove you’re wandering the halls with your teacher’s permission, not skipping class. once upon a time it was a piece of paper, but people kept losing those, so around the time i was in high school, teachers started taping the school-issued cardstock hall pass to things like blocks of wood, plastic flowers, and plush toys, to make them harder to lose.
apparently it wasn’t enough.
Also people would steal them so they could have a get out of jail free card if they got caught skipping class.
It’s a little bit easier to find a stolen giant pencil than it is to find a stolen hall pass
This is eaxctly why hall passes have gotten so extreme.
this is fucking surreal and only adds more weight to my theory that the american public school system is (barely) held together by a dark and arcane magic
