Mentor

You might not be the main character, but you're still very important. You're the older, or at least wiser one, who guides all those little youngins to victory. They may not always listen to you, but at least they respect you. The fandom looks on you as either a MILF/DILF, the lovable cooky old guy, or the one who really, really needs a break. Maybe all three. Probably all three.

Top 5 poems!

it's always time for "good bones" by maggie smith in this house

i can recite "the crocodile's toothache" by shel silverstein off by heart so. that lives inside me forever and ever.

"[anyone lived in a pretty how town]" by e.e. cummings - classic

madhur anand's collection parasitic oscillations moved me - as you got an earful(eyeful?) about - but i don't think i have a favorite poem from the book. the experience of reading it simply added richness to my relationship with poetry and nature and science. only that.

"he visits my town once a year" by amir khusro

9, 28, 55, 69! <3

(Ask meme for people in their 30s)

9. What's your emotional support craft?

Listen man I'm going to get back to that hex quilt any day now, I swear—

28. Be honest, do you like all of the pictures of their babies that your friends send you?

[2001 Schneider voice] oh cool baby!

None of my immediate friends have had babies yet, so it's all been secondhand babies. Which is like, medium exciting, because I'm not as emotionally attached as I would be if this was a baby I might be expected to help babysit or something, but it also hasn't been often enough that the novelty has completely worn off of seeing "Whoa, that nugget is becoming a real human being" in real time. And I like when my friends are excited about things. I guess overall I'd rather get a puppy picture, but it's still pretty neat.

55. Favorite high-effort meal that you make?

99% of my meals are either simple or slow cooker/things I can make in large batches, so I can't say any of my go-tos are really that high effort, but I will call out these Caramel Apple cookies! Totally worth the pain in the ass they are to assemble, they're sooo good and get absolutely devoured wherever I bring them.

(Do not bother with Kraft caramels, they taste like nothing.)

69. What are you looking forward to next week?

We don't have work on Thursday, and random days off in the middle of the week are just kinda fun, it's like bonus time! (I don't love not getting paid but, eh. It's an investment in me time.)
