My Son, Who Is 4, And I Were Walking Along The Street Today And Saw A Man With His Left Leg Amputated
My son, who is 4, and I were walking along the street today and saw a man with his left leg amputated beneath the knee. My son spun around and looked at him, then said to me, “That man lost his leg! What happened?”
I said I didn’t know exactly, but sometimes people lost arms or legs through accidents or didn’t have them for other reasons.
My son instantly said, “Gobber (from How to Train Your Dragon) lost his arm AND his leg and now he has to use tools in their places!”
I kind of collected my jaw and said, “That’s right, and that man is just like Gobber. There’s a special word we use for those kinds of tools. It’s ‘prosthetics’.”
"Prosthetics," said my son, with satisfaction, and on we went without any further discussion about it.
But then we got on the bus, and there was a young black woman with her hair pulled back in a big floofy afro ponytail, and my son, who has seen the trailers for the new Annie movie, said, in delight, “She has hair like Annie’s!”
Representation matters.

Breathtaking Wire Sculptures Capture the Fluidity of the Human Body
English artist Richard Stainthorp captures the beautiful energy and fluidity of the human body using wire. The life-sized sculptures feature both figures in motion and at rest, expressed in the form of large-gauged strands that are densely wrapped around and through one another. By doing this, he gives the work an undeniable presence. Stainthorp also allows the bent wires to shine by keeping their metallic appearance free from any obvious painting or additions.

IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN 50 SHADES OF GRAY OR AMERICAN SNIPER AND HAVE NO INTENTIONS OF DOING SO, REBLOG THIS
I’m following all of you
You are a fantastic person. You're sweet and intelligent, and certainly no one's fool. There's no one quite like you around, which is a shame, because everything would be that much better with more people like you.
I have no idea who this is, but you are an incredibly sweet person! Thank you for your kind words, from the bottom of my heart. I only hope that someone gives you a similar sweet note, anonymous or otherwise. Praise is given so sparingly when it should be heaped.
Discworld synopses sound both ridiculous and totally awesome out of context
- an ex-conman reforms a post office with the help of a golem?
- Les Miserables in reverse starring a time-traveling policeman??
- a seven-foot skeleton and his granddaughter save Christmas???
- a wizard rescues Australia while his colleagues accidentally invent sex????
- like any newcomer reading this post is either 'did he use a random plot generator' or 'oh my god I have to read that right now'
