So I’m making a lovely Sunday dinner tonight, but in order to get everything ready on time I need to start the brioche bread early. Something you may not know about brioche is that the fat content in the dough counteracts the gluten elasticity, thus it takes longer to develop. So anyways I put my dough in the stan mixer and as one might guess the intense butter content causes the dough to slap across the bowl in a very sus sounding way. Fast forward to just now and my Father walks into the kitchen bleary eyed and instantly goes to inspect the kitchen, whereupon a look of realization crosses his face. “Oohh, it’s just bread.” My father thought I was clapping ass at 8:00 on a SUNDAY MORNING!!!
THIS! This would cure me.

I wanna apologize. Not for calling Apollo a hoe; because, that’s just a fact.
Rather, I have realized if Apollo came down to earth to get an apple himself he’d probably be super petty about and take his true god form, leaving the earth’s surface a little crispy.
Again, not a witch but why do the gods need offerings? Like, if Apollo wants an apple sooo bad then that hoe can come down here and get it himself.
i understand that this is the "disabled people know our own limitations" website, but ime, if you are the kind of disabled where everyone around you knows about it and has known you as a weak, incompetent, subhuman creature your entire life: it is important to learn how to make the distinction between "i can't" and "i'm not allowed to."
"i can't hold fragile things without breaking them" vs "my housemates won't let me do dishes anymore."
"i can't manage my own finances" vs "my family won't let me make my own financial decisions"
"i can't ever learn how to drive" vs "the state has decided that people with my disability cannot be allowed to drive."
also "what would need to happen for it to be possible for me to be able to do dishes?" or "what would i need if i were to ever move out?" or "what kinds of supports would i need if i did try volunteering?"
even if the answer to these you come away with is "i actually cannot do the thing, no matter what supports or accommodations i'm given" that's fine! they're still useful questions to ask!

Once a little boy went to school. One morning The teacher said: “Today we are going to make a picture.” “Good!” thought the little boy. He liked to make all kinds; Lions and tigers, Chickens and cows, Trains and boats; And he took out his box of crayons And began to draw.
But the teacher said, “Wait!” “It is not time to begin!” And she waited until everyone looked ready. “Now,” said the teacher, “We are going to make flowers.” “Good!” thought the little boy, He liked to make beautiful ones With his pink and orange and blue crayons. But the teacher said “Wait!” “And I will show you how.” And it was red, with a green stem. “There,” said the teacher, “Now you may begin.”
The little boy looked at his teacher’s flower Then he looked at his own flower. He liked his flower better than the teacher’s But he did not say this. He just turned his paper over, And made a flower like the teacher’s. It was red, with a green stem.
On another day The teacher said: “Today we are going to make something with clay.” “Good!” thought the little boy; He liked clay. He could make all kinds of things with clay: Snakes and snowmen, Elephants and mice, Cars and trucks And he began to pull and pinch His ball of clay.
But the teacher said, “Wait!” “It is not time to begin!” And she waited until everyone looked ready. “Now,” said the teacher, “We are going to make a dish.” “Good!” thought the little boy, He liked to make dishes. And he began to make some That were all shapes and sizes.
But the teacher said “Wait!” “And I will show you how.” And she showed everyone how to make One deep dish. “There,” said the teacher, “Now you may begin.”
The little boy looked at the teacher’s dish; Then he looked at his own. He liked his better than the teacher’s But he did not say this. He just rolled his clay into a big ball again And made a dish like the teacher’s. It was a deep dish.
And pretty soon The little boy learned to wait, And to watch And to make things just like the teacher. And pretty soon He didn’t make things of his own anymore.
Then it happened That the little boy and his family Moved to another house, In another city, And the little boy Had to go to another school.
The teacher said: “Today we are going to make a picture.” “Good!” thought the little boy. And he waited for the teacher To tell what to do. But the teacher didn’t say anything. She just walked around the room.
When she came to the little boy She asked, “Don’t you want to make a picture?” “Yes,” said the little boy. “What are we going to make?” “I don’t know until you make it,” said the teacher. “How shall I make it?” asked the little boy. “Why, anyway you like,” said the teacher. “And any color?” asked the little boy. “Any color,” said the teacher. And he began to make a red flower with a green stem.
