Don’t You Know I’m From Here?

Hi, I'm a lawyer but I swear I'm not an awful person.

Things I want to learn more about this summer:

Graffiti subculture

Comparative tax

Tablet weaving

[divorcedwife]

look at the republican calendar and see which animal/plant/item is associated with your birthday ok. if you're born january 14 you get the day of the cat

[divorcedwife]

solidarity for everyone who was born on the day of the cistern or the watering can or something like that

[ch4051nth3k1tch3n]

my birthday isn’t on there #erasure

[divorcedwife]

all birthdays are there, don't give up! troubleshooting :

when looking for your birthday, make sure to read the small grey italicized number, not the big orange numbers ; january 14, for example, is on the 25th day of the month of nivôse.

there are three months for each season ; if you're on mobile, you may need to scroll sideways to see the third one.

some birthdays in september are in a special section. that is because the first day of the year is september 22nd, and the last few days of the year before that are special holidays. see :

also, i know i joked about some days being less cool than others, but that's also the point of the calendar : replacing worship of saints with appreciation of the tools and plants that allow us to live. don't feel bad for having topsoil as your day, where would be without topsoil?

Been craving The Keg so we’re going tonight. It’s basically a chain steakhouse but it was my grandfather’s favourite so I’ve been like a hundred times before but maybe only three times since his death. He actually went to the original location back in BC which was above a race track so I think he loved that he could go in Ontario when the chain spread that far

[apleasurableillusion]

The best order btw is:

Caesar salad to start, prime rib as rare as you can get it, twice baked potato as your side and Billy Miner pie to finish. Option to add a lobster tail if you go in the summer.

I'm getting my colours done on Sunday. I do think it's a little fake, but I'm also excited for it. I think I'm either an autumn or a winter based on what colours look good on me

[apleasurableillusion]

I am a winter but also she gave me two different palettes for my two different eye colours 🪦

Has anyone seen The Invite? Super funny and absolutely recommend

[apleasurableillusion]

Like I’m not much of a movie person but this one had me laughing out loud with everyone in the theatre and yet it never felt over the top. It goes exactly where you think it will when you hear it’s about two couples having dinner at one of their apartments but also in like 10 other directions you’re not expecting.

Go see it in theatres. It’s more fun with more people laughing around you

My most movie snobbish friend called The Odyssey “a fun summer blockbuster” and gave it 3.5 stars

[apleasurableillusion]

I bought myself new plates and I’m obsessed

[apleasurableillusion]

Can I be so honest and admit I don’t know the story of the odyssey? Like I’m so confused why everyone’s acting like this is a core western story when I know that most people won’t even read one book. Was there like a different movie at some point? A course you all had to take?

[apleasurableillusion]

Man the haze really is something. It’s less orange today than yesterday and it smells less like fire but it’s still apparently awful air quality

[apleasurableillusion]

I normally buy chickpeas in a can, but I bought the dried ones which you have to soak. They’ve been soaking overnight and I just tried one before I actually cook them and it taste like a fresh pea. Was no one gonna tell me the chickpeas taste like peas?

"The world cup shows what world peace would look like" and it's just rows of men upon men upon men upon men drinking with men laughing with men partying with men liberated with men and domestic abuse hotlines will spike tonight
