This too shall pass but like holy fuck
not to alarm anyone but is anybody else worried about how everybody is fucking stupid
Sometimes I hyperfocus so hard on something, I forget I’m a person until someone interacts with me. I feel like some wild animal seeing a human being for the first time. I’m like “oh yeah I’m supposed to speak and stuff”
Me: *doing something for hours on end without stopping*
Someone: Hey, are you there? I was just wondering if you’d like to-
Me:
me: man i sure wish i could view images on a digital screen using an efficient 24-bit color display
the nefarious RGB tri-color LEDs:
me: man i sure wish there was a way to replicate digital images on physical mediums rather than with light, using subtractive mixing
the nefarious CMYK inks:
the most disturbing trend in online leftism is outright hostility towards any kind of community building tools and forgiveness whatsoever.
prioritizing cruelty in the pursuit of justice is still prioritizing cruelty
a friend had the experience of a very observant and analytical person pointing out to him that he seems "fixated on purity in your culture. which is keeping you from joining community because you expect purity from your circles."
and ngl, this has been fcking me up since he mentioned it bc i really don't think he's alone. it seems like part and parcel of The Problems talked about above.
Amazing that we’re in a Covid surge and nobody seems to even be aware of it. So few masks in sight that people assume I’m sick because I wear one (and somehow are still fine with getting near me?). People coughing and sneezing without even covering their mouth like they’re preschoolers. I’m about to become the joker
a man at work approached the desk where I was working.
"You're sick?"
"Huh?"
He gestured to my mask.
"Oh, no, just trying not to be!"
"You know those don't work, right?"
I didn't even know how to respond. You assumed I was sick and that I was wearing it to protect you from my sickness and thus you were comfortable approaching me while I was wearing it.... But they don't work if I'm not sick???
i love when a character has something terrible happen to them and as a result they see themself as, essentially if not literally, a ghost. and so that means they only can (and have to) do what ghosts do, ie get revenge and then cease to exist. easy as that. but then halfway through this ghost vengeance they realize hey actually i might still be a human person. with human needs. that’s incredibly inconvenient, considering how much i’ve invested in this whole ghost thing
developing your ocs is 50% waiting for bursts of divine inspiration like an oracle sleeping next the vapours seeping from fissures in the temple floor and 50% stalking them in your mind relentlessly like a persistence predator until they tire out enough for you to get close and scamper away with the bloody scraps of "eye colour: brown" and "dislikes: people who think they're funny" clutched in your mouth like a hunting trophy
holding an oc closely.... if you had a fandom would people be insane about you....
Me: *scrolling tumblr*
Castiel: I love you
Me: Dear god what’s happened now
