July 27, 1914: Kafka struggles to eat a peach

Ate rice à la Trautmannsdorf and a peach. A man drinking wine watched my attempts to cut the unripe little peach with my knife. I couldn’t. Stricken with shame under the old man’s eyes, I let the peach go completely and ten times leafed through Die Fliegenden Blätter. I waited to see if he wouldn’t at last turn away. Finally I collected all my strength and in defiance of him bit into the completely juiceless and expensive peach.

1) do this even if you're under 40. seriously. I definitely should have been doing something like this for years and I only turned 40 a month and a half ago

2) if you're like me just now trying this going "oh god i've only done 15 and i think my hands are cramping" start lower than 30 and increase by 5 once whatever number you're doing no longer makes your hand cramp up. I can manage about 15 per exercise at the moment.

sometimes that character just wouldn’t hide an injury. it’s a great trope but only if they would do that.

[stonesense]

and sometimes the character wouldn’t try to push through sickness and do their day job or whatever. again i see what you’re going for but sometimes in these fics something else can happen. open your hearts and minds to scenarios such as “the character is actually pretty expressive about their needs and is willing to complain a lot but the other characters still don’t take it that seriously for whatever reason and have to deal with the guilt and quencies after”. or “the character takes a rest at the appropriate time (or earlier!) but then faces punishment/being ignored/hostility for doing so and that is what worsens their condition into a serious one.” or “the character is a practical one who informs people sensibly and takes every necessary step, yet to their distress their condition still spirals out of the control.” or whatever else but just do you see what i’m saying not every character is a silent sufferer and that isn’t the only way to put them in a situation . we can innovate

2 and 12 for ask game pls 💛

hope you’re having a lovely day!

(2) do old planners count? I have a hard time throwing them away at the end of the year, as if I’ll want to go back through my daily tasks at some point in the future. Other than that I move too much and am averse to acquiring things

(12) my car, which I am about to sell 😢

Thank you I am, I just moved and bought a pretty secondhand dresser for my new place today :)

15 or 29 for the ask game!

(29) i am very proud of improving my house plant skills over the past several years (ie getting into a habit of weekly watering and asking ppl to take care of them if I travel - not rocket science). I’ve had this beauty for at least 5 years and another even longer

A couple years ago I found a bicycle brooch at a thrift store and recently I found another of the same at a different thrift store, so now it's like two invisible friends going for a little bike ride on my jacket.
