Well, that was a disaster.
Not sure how that could have gone worse.
I don't know how to express anger and hurt and grief and hopelessness without ruining what's left.
I wish it mattered.
Hi.
If you're going to put a trigger warning on something,
You have to put it in a place where a viewer will see it BEFORE they see the trigger itself.
Congratulations, you don't understand trigger warnings, or you're so determined to catch people off guard that you forgot to care.
Ben, you son of a bitch.
If after all this time, you end up in a romance with Mira, I might scream.
Out of frustration or excitement or both.
Who knows.
"Bravery looks a lot less like confidence and a lot more like refusing to give up when your brain is giving you every reason why you should."
Mom: No one in politics is perfect. Or very good.
Me: Mamdani is pretty popular.
Mom: NO! No, no, no!
Anyway, I just told my mom I'm far more liberal than she thinks, and now I'm having a panic attack.
How's your day going?
“Nobody is perfect” is such bs when it comes out of the mouths of Maga ppl like her. Like yes. Technically, that is correct. Even Mamdani is imperfect. However, nobody is out here saying that Dems/Liberals are perfect (or if they are, they’re stupid).
The thing is, there just is a HUGE difference between “Flawed Politician I only somewhat agree with who has had a few scandals” and “Convicted rapist, nazi-condoning, hitler-regurgitating white-supremeisist anti-science christian nationalist moron, whose list of enemies includes women, racial and ethnic minorities, lgbtq individuals, congress, and the literal constitution of our country.”
like… it’s absurd to try to claim the two sides of this are equal.
im sorry you still have to live with her.
Yeah. And like, the problem is she's always like "I'm not pro-Trump!" but like... I feel like if you're not adamantly against him and people like him, you're just enabling him and people like him.
She's like "he's done good things!" And I just want to be like "okay, but he's done a bunch of monstrous bullshit too and I don't know how anyone looks past that!"

Hi.
If you, like me, struggle to make alfredo, try it the Italian way.
Butter, parmesan, pasta water. That's it.
It sounds too simple to be any good, but after failing over and over to make a good alfredo, this is the only way that has succeeded.
And like... it's pretty damn good too.
*raises hand*
might i bother you for ratios, my fine friend?
This is only my second time making it, and the measurements aren't exact.
For maybe 1/2-3/4 of a box of pasta (so 8-12 oz.) I'd say
- half a stick of butter (4 tbs)
- maybe half a cup of parmesan, freshly grated <- important because pre-grated doesn't melt well
- I eyeball the pasta water, but I'd guess maybe... 1/4 cup?
- You could probably add seasonings if you want (Italian, garlic powder, parsley, etc.), but it really doesn't need it, in my opinion.
Once the pasta is done boiling, strain it and save some pasta water. Put the pasta in a bowl with the butter and start mixing, using the heat from the pasta to melt the butter. Add the cheese and pasta water gradually.
The cheese ends up a little clumpy for me, and I'm not 100% sure how to fix it.
All of this info is available online, probably in a much more concise format.
But here you go.

Just found out an old friend of mine uses AI to write fan fiction.
And I had to seal my mouth shut so I didn't ruin our evening by screaming at her about how fucking stupid that is.
Write the fucking fan fiction yourself, or don't write it at all. Why the actual fuck are we offloading creativity to robots?
Again, if you want to write, WRITE! You can't run a marathon by driving a car.
Sorry, but I'm still so mad about this.
Apparently if you want my opinion of you to absolutely plummet, just tell me you use AI for creative writing.
Like sorry but you're a fucking loser.
You're ruining art for everybody. What the fuck is wrong with you?
My arm. Itches. But I cant. Scratch it.
Just my left arm yearns for bed.
I think I am overstimulated.
Somebody help.

Every romantasy author ever: My love interest is a ten!
Me: ...
Me: *looks at Levi*
Me: You're a ten in my eyes.
Levi: Shut up.
I've officially lived half my life with mental illness. So I got this permanent bracelet in celebration of... me. Because I'm worth celebrating.
So here it is. My "hoo-rah, I'm still here."
If you're still struggling too, it gets better.
It does.
Yay. I love having issues with eating certain textures, trying a new recipe, messing it up, feeling sick just from tasting it, and having to totally rethink plans for dinner.
It's great.
I love this.
