I've become obsessed with seasonality and cyclical time lately so I made a side blog about it. Go follow me at extollingtheeveryday:

TEMPORAL ALLEGIANCE

Seasonality, cyclical time, stasis and change. Located on ancestral Dakota land in Minnesota.

The pic is so fake! Sesame Street would NEVER show night air on the show. The characters in Sesame Street all close their windows and draw their blinds as soon as the daylight ends, just in case. To stop the night air from walking around inside the house OR WORSE

I love living in 2026 because I go to Home Depot and buy a 5-gallon bucket for $4. I say I do not want an email receipt. They know my email anyway because I once ordered a mop online. They email me to ask how I like my 5-gallon bucket. I do not reply. They email me again. They would like my feedback. Reminder ‼️I have purchases to review. Did my 5 gallon bucket live up to my expectations? 3 minute survey!!

UNKNOWN MAN IN GREY SUIT: Hello no!

DARRYL PERRY: What's next, requiring a license to make TOAST in your own damn TOASTER?

[audience clapping and cheering]

GARY JOHNSON: A...license to drive? You know, I'd like to see some competency exhibited by people...before they drive... [cut off by a loud boo from the audience]

it's such bs that the whole guilt-ridden stoic self-sacrificing martyr thing doesn't work outside of fiction. repressing all your emotions and neglecting your physical wellbeing should make you god's most tragically beautiful morally unassailable little soldier of righteousness but all it does is give you bad skin and gastrointestinal problems

like what do you MEAN the number 1 sexiest character trait of all time is just kind of offputting and bad for you in real life. next you'll tell me smoking has consequences other than looking like a mysterious badass

From "How to Respond to Criticism" by Daniel Laverty:

Run into a cave and break your ankle so that people have to come find you and they see you lying at the bottom of this beautiful cave and maybe there’s a waterfall and the light from the crystals makes you look really beautiful and they say “Are you okay?” and you say “I think so” and they say “oh my God have you been here alone this whole time with a broken ankle” and you say “it’s okay” and they say “you’re so brave” and you are brave and you look so beautiful surrounded by cave crystals and everyone stands over you and says “oh wow” and “you poor beautiful thing” and “I’m so sorry we let you run into the cave but I’m so glad we found you” and let them carry you home and promise to be your best friends forever and that everything’s their fault and also they named the cave after you and you’re prettier than all of your enemies and your enemies all died of jealousy while you were in the cave.
