having many trinkets and books is so cool and fun until you realize you have to dust them

[cheaphalloweencostume]

funniest sound in the world is a cat smacking shit hard as fuck with their little stupid paw

[cheaphalloweencostume]

Look, it’s a weird hill to die on, especially when I don’t really explain, but children deserve to experience fear, disgust, and discomfort in safe scenarios where they can process those sensations.

Media for children used to be scary and that’s important.

“Since it is so likely that (children) will meet cruel enemies, let them at least have heard of brave knights and heroic courage. Otherwise you are making their destiny not brighter but darker.” ― C.S. Lewis

"Fairy tales do not tell children the dragons exist. Children already know that dragons exist. Fairy tales tell children the dragons can be killed."

-- G. K. Chesterton

practicing self care less out of self love and more for the sheer logical reasoning of it’d be kinda stupid of me to expect myself to be able to function without proper maintenance

“oh i don’t deserve rest and relaxation, i haven’t done enough, i haven’t earned it” and my car’s breaks don’t deserve break fluid because they aren’t breaking well enough to earn it. that’s what you sound like!!!!!

Something I’m endlessly amused by with my Korean boyfriend is that when he mutters under his breath he’ll usually mutter in Korean but every so often I just hear this “oooh shiiiiit” when hes feeling particularly vexed

why your sewing machine is acting up: - tension is wrong - wrong needle size - thread bit stuck somewhere - tension again - needs a deep clean and oiling - you said something and now its offended and refusing to cooperate until you realize your error and beg forgiveness

[taavicleric]

why your serger is acting up:

-it can sense hubris

[littlebosslady7]

Your serger can also sense fear.

[seljepw]

And they can both smell a deadline a mile away.

My wife’s idea of decompressing after the busy holiday was to rearrange every piece of furniture in our home is this an ADHD thing or just a her thing

I’m not complaining the way she’s done it is much better than it was it’s just like how is this your idea of a relaxing weekend

Listen I don't get to decide when the drunk elf that is my executive actually does the functioning but when he does we have a SMALL WINDOW OF TIME before he finds the schnapps again and we're done

[honeysbunchesofoats]

[kaity--did]

yes this exactly

So to me, there are spoons (general energy cost) and carnival tickets (specific energy cost).

Spoons can be used pretty much anywhere.

Carnival tickets are only good for the carnival, and it’s only in town for a limited amount of time.

So like, if I get “kitchen cleaning” carnival tickets, I can’t use that to clean my bedroom, that’s not where the carnival is.

I frequently download and save fics from AO3 to my hard drive, for those times when AO3 is down or just to make sure I never lose them. Every time since AI started inflltrating everything, I get a prompt "This seems to be a long document. Do you want AI to summarize it for you?"

Bitch, I downloaded this multichapter fic because I want to enjoy reading every damn word of it.

one of the funniest parts in Fellowship will always be when Aragorn approaches the hobbits at the Prancing Pony and he asks them "but how are you sure that I'm not a spy from Sauron sent to lead you astray" and Frodo's response is "Well I think a servant of Sauron would look hotter than you but have worse vibes" to which Aragorn responds "So I look like shit but I passed your vibe check, is that it?" and nobody denies it

[lunarblazes]

after a lifetime of hearing about aragorn but not reading the books or watching the movies, genuinely nothing could have prepared me for his actual introduction. the hobbits picked this man out of a dumpster. he is a textbook softspoken angst prince and he is covered in dirt and he probably smells so bad. he’s the coolest man alive and is so casual about it. his number one skill is Knowing Where They Are and his number two skill is Having A Horrible Destiny That Torments Him. tolkien got it in one i’m afraid aragorn son of arathorn you are the guy of all time

Got home this evening from errands and realized I've been running around town looking like some kind of survival horror game protagonist.
