like the first rule of cooking is to have fun and be yourself and the first rule of baking is to stay calm because the dough can sense fear
not letting the dough sense your fear doesn't mean you can't also have fun btw, you just need to not freak out because, much like cheetahs, bread dough and a scared baker will form a feedback loop of anxiety that destroys both in the end
if a supervillain said "you wont kill me thatd make you just like me" i would simply say "no it wouldnt id be saving millions of people" and the villain would say "but youd be dooming yourself. could you really live knowing youre a killer" and id say "well id certainly have trouble. ill probably be very sad about it. definitely a lot to unpack" and theyd say "so you wont do it" and id say "oh no im still gonna" and theyd say "what" and id say "youre a supervillain responsible for countless deaths and yet here you are desperately trying to bargain for your life. you want to live. which means you can easily live with yourself after being responsible for countless deaths. i, on the other hand, will at the very least have tremendous difficulty with even killing just one person and at worst might just jump out a window right after i do it. the very nature of this whole conversation about whether we are the same has proven to me we are very much not the same and i am certain killing you to save millions is the morally correct decision here" and theyd say "what" and id say "get killed idiot"
what the fuck is going on this year. january through june didnt happen. july is a distant memory. august and september were the longest months of my life. october ended in 5 seconds. why is november here already this isn’t right
It's the season erosion from the climate crisis, combined with a hyperindividualistic and stress-bound society. It warps your sense of time.
awesome. how do i stop all that though
No, but you don't understand how brilliant this actually is. He rewrote the song with some misheard lyrics in partnership with Specsavers because he's been experiencing hearing loss and needs to get hearing aids and wanted to raise awareness for hearing loss and the stigma around hearing aids. Like. My man. I love you.
The things that he says about struggling to hear people chatting in restaurants and cafes is super important
I'm 25 and without subtitles I needed to crack the TV a good 5 notches higher to understand what they were saying. I struggled to hear people in cars, on buses, on trains, and yeah in restaurants and cafes
I eventually decided ehhhh it's probably part of my ADHD, I hear things fine but I just suck at processing them ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Then this year I decided to do an online hearing test. The results were...... not ideal. I made my friend do the same one because *clearly* there was something wrong with the test, not me. Their result came back fine
So I dragged my 25 year old ass in for a hearing assessment and yeah. Turns out I can't hear any frequencies at all under 50 decibels. My audiogram is a flat line. They said hearing loss this bad isnt gradual, I must've been born with it and it was never picked up on
The first few times I went outside with my hearing aids I was so self conscious that people were staring at me. And I was still convinced the tests were wrong. Wind surely isn't meant to be *this* loud? How does anyone get anything done??
But as I've acclimatised to my new hearing, I would definitely recommend anyone that struggles with mishearing to go get checked. I would always mishear what people were saying in conversation, and it turns out that yah, there was a real issue
It's seeing stories like yours that helped me realize I wasn't hearing well either.
Turns out the hearing loss I had as a kid wasn't temporary and due to fluid build-up, and didn't get fixed by the tube I had in my ear drum back then. But the ENT doc never did any follow-up tests and assumed it was fine, because I seemed to be hearing better.
And then my 21yo ass had to convince another ENT doc to check it out, which after some more tests revealed I have otosclerosis (unilateral, at least for now). It still took over a year for him to finally decide to resort to surgery, and then over two years for him to allow me to try on a hearing aid, because he thought I "wouldn't feel the difference anyway".
I do, though. I very much do. I've had this hearing aid for two and a half years now, and I'd never go back. It took a year and a half for my brain to relearn how to process the sounds I hadn't heard for so long, and it was all distorted for a while, but it's so, so worth it.
Get your hearing checked if you have any doubts, folks.
as a person with ADHD, i [something literally every human being alive does sometimes]
eroticize the stigmata. is this anything
The boypussene nature of Christ's side-wound is not lost upon the intellectual Christian.
I explained this to an evangelical once and his head exploded
The weak evangelical mind cannot comprehend the level of medieval low-country nun repression required to produce "My pussy is just like Christ's spear wound"
It's the forbidden-ness of it. The Christian meat yearns to penetrate a wound it cannot fuck, as the Christian soul yearns for oneness with a God it is separate from. These bitches understand the eroticism of worship. They understand the need to annihilate yourself in the object of your desire, made only more intense by the knowledge it can never truly be done. The eroticism of the side-wound is the agony of separation, and the greater agony of union.

"I fucked ur mom this" "I have sex with your dad that" well I have a weird homoerotic relationship with your hot older brother and he got lost in my eyes over our jumbo pizza slices and forgot to pick you up after soccer practice. it's raining and you're devestated btw
nothing has been more important to my being queer than when i went to my first pride parade, got seperated from my group, had a panic attack about it and was sitting on the side of the road holding a tiny genderfluid flag and freaking out. then this six foot five drag queen in four inch heels appeared from literally nowhere and sat down next to me. i, this scared-shitless trans bi kid at pride for the first time, very nervously told her she looked pretty and i told her my name and that i got lost and didn't feel like i should be at pride and she held my hand and said "oh, honey, everybody deserves to be here, especially you. pride is for everybody who's ever gotten lost, who's been scared of who they are or where they are. you think we never been scared before? pride's for you, honey, because you're scared. you don't have to be proud right now, but you're gonna be one day, honey, i'm sure of it."
i found my group soon after that and i never saw that queen again but to this day i am convinced i met an angel.
Ship trope I'd love to see more of: "Are we in love? I mean, yeah, probably, but that's a problem for future us. Right now we're just trying to make it through the Plot."
