All this storming the Capitol nonsense just reminds me of this.

[reverseteehee]

these people are not protestors.

protestors carry signs, they chant, they shame publicly, they declare their reasons, they boycott, they withhold hold labor and they work HARD to achieve political goals.

TERRORISTS intimidate, they threaten, they use (first-strike) violence, they hurt people

these people are terrorists

It’s very annoying to see people outside the US or even ignorant upper class people here make fun of “trashy cooking” when a lot of it is just trying to make the best out of limited resources.

“Lol why do dumb fat Americans use artificial foods like [cheap non-perishable food that became popular during or post depression] to make trashy dishes like [easy reliable recipe that feeds several people] and serve it in [large portions, often as part of hospitality culture or as a habit passed down from a fear of seeing others go hungry]? Surely it’s because they’re too stupid for their own good. Why not eat [food that is hard to find or afford in many places]? Why do you go to places like [only grocery store left in town]?”

It’s just like... okay I understand the urge to clown on things that are really weird, and I understand the urge to make fun of Americans or whatever, but there is always a context and reason behind weird things a group of people do.

having one of those executive function days where everything is too many steps

[crafty-butch]

by which i mean, like, here's how my brain parses the steps in making coffee

good day:

regular day:

put coffee in coffee maker

turn on coffee maker

bad day:

take pot from coffee maker

turn on sink

fill up coffee pot

turn off sink

pour water into coffee maker

put coffee pot in coffee maker

open cupboard

get coffee filter from cupboard

get coffee beans from cupboard

put filter in coffee pot

measure coffee

pour coffee into filter

close coffee maker

turn coffee maker on

anyway this is a "14 steps to make coffee" kind of day

Disney really out here telling me my worst fear, thanks for that, I’m absolutely fine, not at all crying, they didn’t need to break my heart
