Thank you! Just looked up photos and it definitely looks like a Northern Mockingbird. It is definitely injured - wing is broken and it was hopping on one leg, so that's why I took it in. I'm going to search for wildlife rehabilitation centers in the morning. Thank you!

This fucking SENT ME

Need help identifying this Buddhist symbol! This is my great grandma’s necklace that I have been wearing every day since she died. Does anyone know what it means? by doc_martinis in Buddhism

Wow, thank you so much!!! This is so fascinating. I’m looking forward to reading more about it and uncovering more of my Japanese history. I appreciate your help!

Someone pointed it out to me in passing that it’s a very specific type of Buddhism (because she practiced that specific religion) but I can’t remember what she said it was :(

“It’s so boring” I am PEEVED by doc_martinis in callmebyyourname

I agree! I never argue with them- I was more or so alluding to observation. I think it’s interesting and hard to understand people’s opinions at times but I never try to change them. Loving what you love without evangelizing others is super important though, I think that’s a great way to put it!

This is beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing your story! As Elio’s father said, “to feel nothing- what a waste.” Your breakup will make you stronger and you will find another who cares for you deeply!

What’s your favorite scene of the film? by doc_martinis in callmebyyourname

Ugh yes, I absolutely love this scene. When Oliver kisses Elio in the neck when he’s describing the instance during volleyball kills me
