Sodium-Tumbl

The name's Grace. I'm the 26 year old version of a 26 year old designer with an intense range of interests and the attention span of a raccoon. Though IDK what the attention span of a raccoon is even like, so that might not even be a good analogy. I work at a radio station and I drink too much coffee.

I post a lot about Tom Hiddleston & Loki, Supernatural, Misha Collins, food, knitting, Gravity Falls, Hannibal, Archer, & kitties (including my own: Untitled Cat) and my daily life. As well as anything else that interests me (which is a lot omg).

The only person I ever amuse is myself.

I love when autocorrect on my iPhone turns simple misspellings into totally crazy words and I go on a Wikipedia scavenger hunt to figure out why Apple would make my phone turn “bilding” into “Bildungsroman” instead of “building.”

Bildungsroman is German for the literary genre of a coming-of-age story and is credited to starting with Goethe’s The Apprenticeship of Wilhelm Meister in 1795.

So. Abebooks.com has a section dedicated to “Literary Oddities.” And it is amazing.

I saw a commercial for Sylvan Learning Center last night and the kid was like “They helped me turn my math skills from Frankenstein to Einstein.”

And I was like “Maybe they should have taught you how to fucking read. Frankenstein was a scientist who REANIMATED THE DEAD. He was probably very fucking good at math.”
