My favorite thing in My Time at Portia is how you can stay up till 3:00 AM only to casually and dramatically pass out and wake up in your own bed. Who moves you?? There's no consequences to this?? You just. Pass out and wake up. No depleted health or gold or nuthin. It's fuckin ridiculous and Iaugh every time

Tumblr has been such an impersonal experience for me and I've been here for years. So long in fact that I'm not even the same person I was when I started. Like a short enough time that I completely missed Mishapocalypse, but long enough that I wonder what happened to the SuperWhoLock crowd. Who's hiring friends in this joint?! I'M 👌 SCREAMING 👌 INTO 👌 THE 👌 VOID

PM meeeeeee look at the book i'm reading and tell me I'm cool, also I love you. Stay sexy, bitches. 👌😎

Went to the farmer’s market yesterday. Hadn’t gone out in over a year. Guy selling mushrooms asked how I was doing. I panicked and did an awkward little shimmy dance at him. He wordlessly did it back. Can’t stop thinking about this interaction

It was kind of interesting to me that out of all the people in our training group, the ones that were the quickest to form social bonds were the people from way out in the country and the city people just kind of quietly kept to themselves.

But I was definitely accepted as one of the bumpkins.

Oh! This is actually an example of Rural vs Urban manners.

In rural/less densely populated areas, the polite thing is to offer people your time and social energy which is why country people will talk your ear off at the slightest acquaintence- it’s kind of lonely when you have to make an effort to see people, so you Make An Effort ™

In Urban/Densely populated areas, you’re meeting people whether you want to or not, because you are physically close to each other constantly. So the Polite Thing there is to kind of ignore other people and keep strictly to business, so you’re not imposing upon thier (probably already drained) soical spoons.

The city folks will warm right up to you once they get to know you well enough to know that talking to you won’t piss you off.

I grew up rural and live in the SF Bay Area now, and this is exactly how it is.

Appropriate city behavior is about *efficiency*, creating the least friction possible in every interaction because everyone has somewhere to be and is trying to pretend they don’t have strangers in their personal bubble *all day long*.

In SF, chatting with the bank teller a second longer than necessary is rude AF because there are 10 people in line and the teller is running behind and you are inconviencing *everyone*. They will deal with 1000 customers today and they genuinely don’t have it in them to form a friendly relationship with you.

In the little forest where I grew up you could stop your car in the middle of a one lane street to chat up a friend on the sidewalk. Any other cars would just go around you. There wasn’t much traffic, it was fine. If you’re one of 50 people the bank teller is gonna see today and there’s no line, it’s actually nice to ask how their day has been and commiserate about the roadwork at the single downtown traffic light.

City & country folks are operating under very different pressures and both are “right”, but it can be hard for city people to remember how to just…shoot the shit with strangers.

I’m jealous of those who can function like a normal human being. They don’t have anxiety holding them back from everything, they don’t struggle to get out of bed or have to put on an act that everything is fine when its not. They don’t struggle to hold friendships and relationships… they don’t feel sad for no fucking reason everyday. Those that can hold jobs and work towards their dreams, the ones who have self esteem and see the beauty in themselves. Those that know what its like to feel safe and secure, not insecure and fearful of it all.

Cant concentrate on work today bc all i’m thinkin about is a new ACNH island called “Ohio” and its completely flat and planted top to bottom with corn and wheat and like one lonely road with electric poles for the shops to sit on. All the villagers are farm animals. Its the stupidest shit but I want to do it so bad lolol.

that muppet post reminded me, most if not all of the main muppets have twitter pages. Fav has gotta be Miss Piggys, which is filled with selfies and vaguely uplifting text thats also egocentric. all the comments are people complimenting her and being like “YAS QUEEN”

Close second is Gonzos. Which is just…unhinged
