#anthropomorphizing inanimate objects

At the mechanic getting tires repaired. It’s so surreal when they lift the car up and you can see it from a whole new angle and then they take a tire off and it’s like “hey that’s my friend’s foot! You just took her foot off!” She looks so scared.

I genuinely love the way my printer will get all queued up and then just pause for a few seconds, like it's mentally preparing itself before printing. I'm sure it's some initialization thing or something, but I like to pretend it's that it knows it has a big task ahead and it doesn't want to mess-up. So, it takes a second to collect itself before forging ahead and staining that piece of paper with all those little dots of ink.

Me: wtf, my phone turned off color???

My phone: you said bedtime starts at 2, so I've turned off color to remind you to go to sleep and stop reading Tumblr.

Me: fuck you, asshole!

Also me: is my phone trying to take care of me? 😭

Something is Afoot in the temple.

It's stretching like a snake about to shed. Trying to split it's skin, and discard the old, worn, husk.

The temple is a living, breathing, thing. And if it wants to shed I've got to be there to mist it regularly, and clean up after.

It'll certainly be a lot more photogenic once it's shiny and new.
