everything in this life is temporary. except that fandom hyperfixation from when you were 14. that thang will be with you forever there's no escaping.
No offense but I think some of you would be a lot happier writing a fictional atlas or encyclopedia instead of a narrative story
My family never put much priority on my comfort or happiness. I'm slow to wake up, and I grew up thinking that I hate mornings. My sister is the type of a person who is as wide awake as she'll be all day as soon as her eyes snap open, and when we were teenagers she used to wake me up on school days by tossing the dog at me (our old Tessa was enough of a terrier to always land on her feet, claws first, and could be tossed like a cat) and waking up every day having to wrestle a dog's tongue out of my mouth before I could open my eyes was Not Nice.
My family would berate me for being too sensitive, dramatic, or even downright manipulative, for being able to burst into tears first thing in the morning.
When my boyfriend wakes up before me, he takes meticulous care not to wake me up. He climbs out of bed so cautiously and slowly, gets dressed without turning on the light, and sits quietly in the dark of our one-room apartment until my alarm rings or I wake up on my own. This morning, I woke up to notice that the room was softly lit in a way I didn't recognise, and saw the love of my life quietly gaming in the light of a storm lantern.
I love mornings.

I can’t tell you how much I love this artwork from ancient Egypt (the Middle Kingdom). People have been raising cattle and practicing animal husbandry for so long, that there is something almost inherently human about this scene.
Everyone in the field of veterinary medicine or agriculture knows the feeling of staying up late with a laboring animal trying to make sure both mom and baby are okay. Delivering a calf is often physically and emotionally exhausting work that takes enormous patience and learned skill. It requires a unique balance of physical strength and gentleness to do correctly. There is no feeling quite like getting that baby out and everyone is okay. I’m certain ancient people must have felt the same way, and I wonder if the artist knew this feeling firsthand. I wonder if those humans depicted were people the artist knew, if the cow and calf maybe were as well.
I went to the library to borrow some DVDs we're planning to watch, but when I handed the librarian my card, it took me a solid 15 seconds to register that I handed her my fucking weed card.
Me, fumbling to swap it out: "OH MY GOD, I AM SO SORRY, I was on total autopilot!!"
The librarian: "It's all good, I just assumed it was a flex."
putting an episode of bob's burgers on each time I'm eating like a medieval king calling for his jester at each supper
James Somerton Apology 2: Electric Boogaloo summed up.
I’ve printed this out before but that big myth of how the Harry Potter books got turned down by 12 different publishers doesn’t sound that rediculous once you learn literally anything about how the publishing world or actually any other creative field works
my astigmatism lets me see beautiful angels before i drive into oncoming traffic
If you got problems with trigonometry I feel bad for you son
I got ((3/(cos^2x+sin^2x)))^4+(((7(cos^2x+sin^2x)))+(11/(cos^2x+sin^2x))) problems and trigonometry ain't one
they also might not be giants. let's not get our hopes up
I am apparently working on becoming a local cryptid at the store. Talents include:
Monitoring the changing of the seasons via mozzarella
Predicting the weather by picking up a piece of cheese and mysteriously saying “oh, the storm is gonna be bigger than we thought...” just before thunder
Mind reading, e.g. “Can you help me find a cheese? It’s called, uh... [starts fishing out shopping list]” “Gruyere?” “...yes O_o”
I can't read articles about cheese without thinking of our resident cheese witch @lazywitchling
Like a lil protection spell for my cheese ✨ 🧀 🕯
would it be possible to make a custom keyboard that has keys specifically designated for emojis? like i want to be able to just press on 💀 with a keyboard
Yeah. Logitech even made one! The Logitech Pop.
But generally any keyboard running a QMK or related firmware (so nearly all mechanical keyboards) can do this.
You can also just install WinCompose and set up a key combination to let you type whatever. I use caps lock for mine, like caps lock a " writes out ä. You could tell it to make caps lock+s to write 💀
