Tv show edition:

Thinking you’re watching love is blind, you’re watching married at first sight

Thinking you’re watching grey’s anatomy and you’re watching ER or New Amsterdam

Ok let’s think up more such possible movie mixups

I’ll start: thinking you’re watching Disney’s the Black Hole, but you’re watching Event Horizon

Thinking you’re watching ET and watching Alien

Just watched No Country for Old Men while thinking it was There Will Be Blood and spent much of the movie very confused about when we would get to Daniel Day Lewis and the oil.

I’m so fucking stupid

I went to get tires

Discount Tire (America’s Tire, weird name, where I live now) was closed early

And I totally forgot that Costco nearby does tires and is known for good tires

Ok gonna drive back there and get some tires

I was considering ones that can handle some offrd

I think that regan and trump and bush and Nixon are great examples of how being born in the US is no guarantee of loyalty

Probably not a hot take on here but I think people not born in America who have nevertheless been Americans for the majority of their lives should be eligible to be president

Also? Getting comfortable enough with failure that failure no longer crushes you is like a basic survival skill if you’re hypersensitive/have anxiety, and the only way to do that is to just go ahead and fail repeatedly

people don’t realize that there are things that they need to practice to get better at them

they think it should be easy so they keep just trying occasionally and then deciding it’s not for them

No need to imagine a man with a hammer if you’re running away from your feelings and the bad thoughts 👍

Calaca Byproduct @cacaobyproduct.bsky.social · 4h

I also thought that The Man with the Hammer was maybe a self-motivation tool for running, to imagine you’re running away from a murderer with a hammer (I am a stupid silly person obviously)

You speak Japanese! And that is so cute as a chorus!
