First time reading Dracula, not to victim blame, but Harker was stupid. Even if you think everyone is superstitious, if a woman begs you not to go and, people pity you and do blessings. Don't go! They know something you don't. If it's violent behavior or vampirism, you don't need to find out!
Why don't large event spaces have 2-3 women's rooms per men's room? This is not a new problem people, the bathroom lines are ridiculous!
Listening to music I'm my car with the windows down feels proformative in a way I can't shake. Even if the volume is low or if there is no one around.
Y'all check in with your parents, sometimes they are just consuming straight AI bullshit and lies on Facebook and thinking it's real.
I don't think our attention span is bad. I think in an economy where our attention is the currency, we are able to identify in seconds if it's worth watching. When novelty or just better quality videos/photos/content is just a scroll away, why would we stick with boring media?
When Bruno says "I'm a dangerous man with some money in my pocket, keep up!"

Does he mean the money makes him dangerous or are those two separate facts he's informing us about?
The roof of your mouth has a taste but you don't know what it is.
Leg bouncing is just socially acceptable stimming.
Attention! The hairstyle where you gather all your hair to the back of your head with a single elastic will, hereby, be called a bunny tail or a cloud. No other names will be acknowledged. Thank you.
Does anyone else get nervous if you like a video but don't watch the last few seconds of their goodbyes, like what if they randomly threw in a "Hail Hitler" or killed a puppy at the end and you have liked the post without ever knowing. Hasn't happened yet but there is a non zero chance...
No one talks about how bouncy a box of mail is. It jiggles with every step and is delightful.
Vision impairment is a disability, contacts/glasses are disability aids. But it is so integrated into our life/society, it isn't seen as abnormal or other. What would the world look like if we treated other impairments the same way.
What are they doing to the chik-fil-a and trader joe workers? Because I know they aren't paid enough to naturally be that happy. Are there drugs in the breakroom or is it a be happy or else you're fired situation?
The tuna is too expensive for me to buy this week. The TUNA. I fucking hate it here.
I like to think of myself as liberal and openminded, but I am not immune to the culture I was raised in. I have many shitty biases. I am so glad that I am in a time where so many perspectives can be shared and so many people are willing to speak out. And I'll keep learning how to be a better person
Sometimes I watch ads for the stuff I already own to make me excited about it again. Like my Note 20 Ultra has 5G and I got the rose gold!
But not even parents or older siblings or teachers, everyone is incompetent, apathetic or evil. Hell a lot of kids are orphans in these depictions. Harry Potter, series of unfortunate events, Disney princesses, etc.
Why do children/teen's books never show trustworthy adults. I know the stories are about the kids and coming of age and adventure, but why do adults have to be written as the antithesis of growth rather than helping hands?
Facts, but I live in NJ. There are dozens of mom and pop shops making pizza 10x better than the chains ever could so why bother. Only go there cause we got a coupon or something, lol.
It is interesting how childproof everything is. When I was growing up, there was just a clear double standard regarding what kids were allowed to say and do vs. adults. I don't think one is better but it is interesting.
Was going to order sushi on Doordash for 3 people. It was $71. We called them and picked it up. It's 5 mins away. $41! $30 difference and the driver would be lucky to get $10. What the hell!?
I want to loc my hair. I'm on the fence between doing it myself and saving up for a loctician.

Pope Spaghetti Bolognese V

(Right on.)
Do you have a book that you reread over and over? I'm obsessed with The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Addison. It is my comfort read.🩵📚
I try to keep a list of project ideas, and when I have time, I see what appeals to me. That and I try to keep my tools organized. Nothing kills motivation like having to clean before you start.
