btw i’m a very normal doctor who fan. completely normal. nothing unusual at all to see here. :)
actually while i’ve still got this soapbox stuck to my shoe i also wanna say i think culturally we gotta start conceptualizing physical fitness as a productive hobby rather than an obligation
it’s sort of like clothes. there’s a baseline level of involvement with clothing necessary to stay safe from the elements and participate in society. having a variety of different clothing isn’t *strictly* necessary but pretty tangibly helpful. knowing how to do some minor mending and tailoring is nice. once you get into sewing your own clothes, you’re in hobby territory. if you’re making your own textiles from scratch, that is not only definitely a hobby but not something you can expect other people to want to do
the sort of nonsense fitness influencers get up to is sort of like people showing off their homemade silkworm farm and then pointing at everyone else and going “what’s YOUR excuse for wearing a TSHIRT from the STORE???” and actually nvm that would be fucking hilarious. god i wish that was an actual thing can you imagine
I love when a character wants to be someone's dog so so bad. Dont mean it in a sexual way (although that can also be a part of it) I mean like. Let me be your loyal companion let me stay by your side give me a purpose in exchange for endless unconditional love let me stop being a person love me like it's my only use. Love me like that's the only thing I was made for. As you can tell. I'm normal.
Please remember that almost everyone around you is traumatized. I didn’t understand this when I was younger. I wondered why people acted so strangely and irrationally. Maybe all children wonder this. The author Robert Anton Wilson said (paraphrasing), “We have never seen a completely sane adult human.” No one makes it out of this life alive. It’s not their fault. Mercy, kindness, forgiving — these are what makes one human. They are other names for love. People break in the strangest of ways.
“Under the present brutal and primitive conditions on this planet, every person you meet should be regarded as one of the walking wounded. we have never seen a man or woman not slightly deranged by either anxiety or grief. we have never seen a totally sane human being." — Robert Anton Wilson
this is a general PSA to all my mutuals that if i haven't replied to you in [xyz amount of time], you're still in my head to reply to, however an extremely toxic (in both the social AND literal senses) is giving me chronic migraines, and i keep getting in the kind of pain that stops you from wording things well when you're staring at a bright screen light. please know that i am thinking of y'all and want to get back to you as soon as i can.
love that i was so migraine-brained when i wrote this last night that i forgot to put ‘workplace’ after 'toxic’
The parking attendant paused by the double-length bay. Intended for mobile homes and cars with trailers, it was currently occupied by a sleeping dragon.
No parts of it extended beyond the lines, and the paper ticket was clearly displayed, impaled on a horn.
The parking attendant moved on.
I was going to just queue it for later but then it stuck in my brain, and I decided to make it everyone's problem

kid in the library just said "a VILLAIN who lives in the MOON is after us" so keep an eye out for that today guys
It's actually very annoying that the answer to "why don't I have any ideaaaaas" is "read a good book" just perennially forever.
And it's always both more and fewer books than I think it's going to be. But they have to be a very specific kind of crafty to get it going.
It’s not annoying because I have to read or anything. It’s annoying because I know this and yet keep not doing it properly.
