A foggy day in Seabeck, WA

The Wageworker, Lincoln, Nebraska, March 8, 1907

I just thought I was constantly thinking thoughts because I am thoughtful

“constant mental activity” i genuinely thought everyone in the world experienced this until i had lived on this green and blue earth for like thirty years.

I’ve seen people complain about media where a character has a constant internal monologue and insinuate it’s unrealistic. I did not realize there were people who do not think all the time about everything.

There’s something so uniquely terrifying about memory issues. I feel like my self is slipping away from me.

Here’s the thing I feel like a lot of folks don’t get: I’m not trying to forget what you said. Honestly, I really tried not to. I can’t control what I do and don’t remember—forgetting things just happens. It’s annoying for you, I know, but for me it’s distressing as hell and when you make a big deal out of it rather than just reminding me you make me feel ashamed. I’ll remember that, at least.

It costs you nothing to be kind to people with memory problems. Please. It’s scary enough without people treating memory lapses as a personal failing.

Hey, reblog this version instead, please!

I love the amount of hatred the 2021 car is drawn with. because I agree

hate when mummy movies use Imhotep as the big bad. He was an architect. Imagine a mummy movie but the mummy is Frank Llyod Wright. And he was buried at the House On The Rock. Ok nevermind that would be a sick ass movie.

Just figured out something about Diesel that makes me feel like such a dumbarse

do share please

So for those who don't know, Diesel is a typical housecat. He has typical cat behaviours and enjoys typical cat things. He's my neighbour's cat, not mine, but I feed him even though I probably shouldn't, mostly because somebody has to.

Like most cats, Diesel enjoys tasty food. He gets wet food each afternoon and can get pretty pushy in the hour or so pre-food, which is normal for cats. Sometimes, he also gets pushy at random times of the day, including a couple of hours after already having wet food, which is also not unusual for cats, so I just chalk it up to his annoying cat behaviour. It'll be a few hours after his dinner and he'll stand in front of my computer screen staring at me and I'll go to make a coffee and he'll run to the fridge and meow at me, and grab my leg when I try to leave the kitchen; it's all very annoying but hey, some cats are annoying, whatever. It's particularly annoying because he mostly seems do to it when I'm super hungry and then it feels awkward to fix myself something while he's looking at me like this, then pushing him away from my food, and somehow after I eat he's never

He does it when I'm hungry.

If you can see where this is going then you're a lot smarter than me, because it wasn't until this week that I started paying attention. When Diesel started badgering me and luring me into the kitchen, I started going. I started making myself some food. I sit down to eat it, he jumps up to smell it like normal; I push him away like normal and he goes to eat some of his dry food (the same dry food that's been there all day but he's been ignoring and bugging me instead) while I eat my soup. Afterwards he stops bugging me and either goes off somewhere to do his own thing or comes over for a snuggle.

Diesel's not leading me to the kitchen to ask for wet food. He's leading me there to tell me to eat. I'm being fuckign. Handled. By a half-stray housecat.

He's currently purring at me and asking for post-dinner snuggles but it just feels condescending now.

Me: Diesel do not eat my soup.

Diesel: I am confirming that you have food and not yet another craft project to get lost in. Good. Now I will go to my bowl and we can eat together.

hey btw shout out to people whose hair is very important to them and are dealing with hair loss

no matter the reason why it's important, or the reason why you're losing your hair. whether you're a trans woman undergoing chemo, or an aging indigenous person, or you're black and it just started falling out one day while you were trying to grow it natural, or any other combination of reasons

and if you're being forced to cut your hair or style it in a way you really don't want, then the same thing applies. i love you all.

i got a 100% on this bostonian-to-english quiz but i grew up near boston..... i'm curious what you guys get. there's a couple things in here i didn't even know are regionalisms + a couple things i hadn't heard before but could parse pretty easily from context. tag/reply with what you got and if you're familiar with the area or not!
