randomly remembered this tweet and had to stop myself from bursting out laughing

[storyweavingspider]

Had an accidentally hilarious interaction with another Black woman my age and her mom at an event today.

She complimented me on my jewelry and said it looked very spidery, and I thanked her and said it is, which is fitting since my name is Anonsee.

She asks what language it is and if it means spider, and I tell her it’s mainly Akan tribe but also heavily through Black diaspora, and that a lot of other Black folks tend to know the name because they grew up with Anansi Tales as kids. She says she’s never heard of them and doesn’t think she read them as a kid.

At this point her mom walks up, and she turns to her mom and asks “Hey mom, are you familiar with the name Anansi?” and the mom goes “Of course! I read those stories to you as a kid!” and the daughter hits her with the “Really? I don’t remember that at all!!”

Cue the mother looking absolutely SCANDALIZED and going “I have a book full of them that I used to read out of to my students! Im reading some to you when we get home later.” and the mom was also absolutely tickled pink to learn my name was Anonsee, she lit up so happily it was so sweet 😭

Bringing Anansi back to our people a step at a time by getting moms to read his stories to their adult daughters I guess 😮‍💨🥹

forget everything anyone has ever told you on the matter the truest marker of adulthood is starting to hear the siren call of high quality kitchenware

[tainbocuailnge]

to be clear you SHOULD buy that cast iron pan and you SHOULD buy that knife set and you SHOULD buy that fancy rice cooker and you SHOULD buy that novelty mug. high quality kitchenware is always worth it you’re literally gonna be using that almost every day

This seems like a good post to include this link on:

Your Cookware Got Worse On Purpose

One buyout firm quietly collected Pyrex, Corelle, Instant Pot, and Oneida. Farberware is a name on a 200-year lease. And the pans still wort

Talking about popular kitchenware companies undergoing enshittification, and gives you a list of brands towards the end that are more reliable.

The worst-sounding piece of advice I've ever been given that does actually work is to frame your health concerns as coming from someone close to you, whom you do not believe. Tell your doctor that you've been having pain and your mom/friend/partner thinks it might be an ovarian cyst, but you don't think so because the pain is much more intense and it has to be something else. This gives your doctor an unseen third party to fight instead of you. They can't just tell this third party, who isn't present, that you pulled a muscle, they now need to prove to this third party that it is not an ovarian cyst.

At which point they will find an ovarian cyst, but they now get whatever fucked up satisfaction they derive out of proving you wrong, because you didn't believe it could a cyst at all, but guess what? They did find a cyst! It's such a good thing you didn't listen to your intuition and came to them to verify your lay diagnosis from that third party! Bonus? Doctor doesn't have to feel like they look stupid in front of a patient, which is really what all this is about. Not your health, why would you think your medical diagnosis is about your health? It's obviously about a doctor's potential ego.

And apparently this works. Apparently you just need to be able to always play 4D chess with your medical professionals in order to find an avenue of advocating for yourself and getting you medical needs met. Isn't that great?

I hate it here, actually.

I've had a lot of success with "It's very unlikely to be x but considering my medical history and previous medical advice it's probably better to be safe then sorry you know? I'm expecting it to be (something minor) but don't want to be reckless with my health you know?" It's important to act reluctant to be there and that you think this is low key a waste of your time but you are trusting doctors more than yourself

And usually doctors immediately take the "of course you need to be checked out! That's the responsible thing to do!"

If they don't order testing adding on "I know it'll probably be nothing but can I get (test) or something to double check? I'd leave it but I've had a doctor tell me this sort of thing needs that and id like the confirmationwhen (relative) fusses at me"
