Before there were trains there was ship autism

Maréchal Pinard @skankstank64
yfw plane/train autism existed in ancient greece but it was with ships instead
25. Thrasyllus of the deme of Aexone suffered a strange new form of madness. He left the city and went down to live at the Piraeus. He imagined that all the ships coming into harbour there were his own. He made a list of them, attended when they departed once more, and was delighted when they returned safely to the harbour. For a long time he continued to suffer from this mania. But his brother, returning from Sicily, handed him over to a doctor to be cured, and in this way he recovered from the illness.
He often recalled his mad hobby and used to say that he had never been so happy as when he rejoiced at the sight of ships which did not belong to him returning safely, 45

The Internet Archive and Way Back Machine is a crucial part of the Internet we once knew. It's hard to overstate how important it is to ensure both stay around. Especially in this political climate.

Please take some time to pitch in and boost this petition. A little bit of action goes a long way.

Anyone tries to tell you trans people aren’t really trans, think of this girl. To be herself, she turned her back on a level of wealth that is incomprehensible to any of us. Her descendants would have had money for as long as there is money. Yes, there’s more to life, but that’s a hell of a thing.

The Chinese internet is merciless 😭😭

Heterosexuality is really the most vulnerable sexual orientation in the
world. In human history, electric shock, detention, family coercion,
campus and workplace bullying cannot change homosexuality into
heterosexuality, but heterosexuality can become homosexuality by
looking at the relevant information and movies about homosexuality.
