Bold of you to assume I know what I'm doing

@nex-tbestthing

I don’t see chicken tenders on the menu I’m leaving

There's something wrong with my brain because multiple times now while painting my house I've thought to myself "hey, this is like one of those simulator games, like power wash simulator, except with perfect feedback and you don't even need a computer! Cool!"

ⓘ Tip If you feel unfulfilled by how you spent your time today, you can stay up late to try to combat the sense of dissatisfaction. This will ensure that you feel even worse tomorrow.

Too bad you cut me off

I once admired you, and I envied you just as much.

some kind of Father-son & Creator-Creation trope, I love the HC that his anger comes from realizing his creator made him just to abandon him later for no reason, leaving him to question his purpose.

The last time I played Puck, the director was a huge freak about not letting us wear shoes on stage because it would "ruin the look", but we all kept eating shit, and instead of just letting us wear skintone dance shoes or something with grip, motherfucker poured Pepsi on the floor so it'd be sticky and we had to schlorp around. I fucking hate you, David.

Why couldn't this have been a one time I dreamt

Coking the stage (mopping it with diluted soda so it's a little sticky) is a legitimate low-budget tactic for slick floors, but he just poured so much Pepsi on the floors that for about a whole week, it was audible.

Maybe the course of true love would run a little fucking smoother if we didn't have to ford your Pepsi river, DAVID.

I would just quit. Fuck people like that. It's easy to walk away

No it's not. Didn't you read the post? There was dried Pepsi everywhere.

my browser extension that colors posts based on the poster's blog theme did something very fun just now

Your brain loves to rewrite your past with the knowledge you have now. This is called hindsight bias. It makes things look clear that were not clear at all when you were in the situation.

Hindsight can make everything feel like it was obvious. Patterns feel clearer. Red flags look brighter. But you did not have that clarity when you were in it. You were acting with the knowledge, feelings, and instincts you had at the time.

Even if someone warned you, even if part of you suspected something was wrong, the way you felt then mattered. Hope mattered. Fear mattered. Attachment mattered.

You were trying. You were surviving. You were not foolish for wanting things to work.

Be kinder to the version of you who did not know what you know now.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
