The Possibility of Magic

Working in the real world and trying to figure out what I'm doing with my life... But hey, while I'm doing that I get to teach people about some pretty cool animals every day. This blog is just a mishmash of shit I like. In my free time (when I'm not on here), I read, swing dance, and do whatever else I may find to do...

I desperately need to go to the seaside for 6 months for my health.

[hobohobgoblim]

I am in need of a retreat, someplace warm and fair. My health cannot continence this dismal century.

I must away the mountains to recover my strength. I shall return upon the invitation of a vaccination for idiocy.

Those loony Christian signs listing all the types of sinners who will go to Hell (ABORTIONISTS SATANISTS GAMBLERS FORNICATORS) always make me feel bad because I know I’d fall under a lot more categories if I just got out more. It’s introvert shaming, that’s what it is.

Whenever I take a long car ride I end up exhausted afterwards, and I'm always like "why am I so tired? I was just sitting around doing nothing all day."

But the answer, it turns out, is I was doing something. Riding in a car jars your body in many directions and requires constant microadjustments of your muscles just to stay in place and hold your normal posture. Because you're inside the car, inside the situation, it's easy not to notice all the extra work you're doing just to maintain the status quo.

There's all sorts of work that we think of as "free" that require spending energy: concentrating, making decisions, managing anxiety, maintaining hypervigilance in an unfriendly environment, dealing with stereotype threat, processing a lot of sensory input, repairing skin cells damaged by sun exposure, trying to stay warm in a cold room.

The next time you think you're tired from "nothing", consider instead that you're probably in situation where you're doing a lot of unnoticed extra work just to stay in place.

jane austen is timeless because the line “i’m 27 years old, i’ve no money and no prospects. i’m already a burden to my parents and i’m frightened” is as relevant today as when she published pride and prejudice in 1813 😭

i love saying i will be "without access" to email. it's a lie. i am fully capable of accessing my emails. i simply will not be.

[macleod]

having access to email is a state of mind, one I do not want

All Pelicans go to jail challenge

Pelicans have the exact opposite energy from capybara. Capybara are shaped like a friend, soothing.

Pelicans are shaped like a problem.

[korasonata]

I like that all of these animals don’t even flinch. Just used to it

[wizard-of-docs]

It's a wonderful day at the zoo, and you are a horrible pelican.

If you wouldn't go to someone for advice, don't take their criticism either.

Wait whoa

[timemachinetyrant-deactivated20]

I wish people understood I’m not changing topic on purpose. A New Thought™ pops up and must be discussed immediately. The Old Thought™ has ceased to exist.
