Hey, you are not an embarrassment for not knowing how to do certain household chores/basic self-care. They do not come naturally to us. A lot of it takes practice! Maybe you had a neglectful guardian. Maybe you had one that was very coddling and never thought to teach you. Maybe you haven't lived in a place where these things were available to you or needed. Doesn't matter. It's okay to not know and far more common than you might realise.
That said, this website provides very simple instructions on how to do everyday tasks such as making your bed, using a washing machine, cooking different foods, washing dishes, taking a shower, etc. All you have to do is use the search bar to find the task you're struggling with, and it'll come up with what you need + other related how-to's:)
If you're having trouble navigating it, let me provide you with some examples:
How to clean dishes by hand
How to make your bed (with visual demonstrations of each step!)
How to fold clothes (with visual demonstrations of each step!)
How to take a shower & dry yourself off (also provides ways to shave beards, armpits, legs and genitals)
How to shave legs, armpits, beards, pubic areas, etc. (a more in-depth guide)
How to mop the floor
How to sweep the floor
How to swallow pills
How to make small talk
How to make eye contact in different situations (or how to avoid it while still looking natural)
It's also perfectly okay if these don't help or aren't appealing to you. Unfortunately, nothing helps everyone.

For the love of G-d, HP fans, we are begging, please read a different series.
The money you're giving her, that you're pretending is harmless and okay, is being used to fund movements to strip trans people of their legal rights. Period.
There is no more excuse.

being in your 20s is like: i’m so young i’m so old. i should do everything i should rest. i can do what i want but i need to be careful. i’m an Adult™ but i need help from an Adult™. i’m so smart i’m so stupid. i’m leaving i feel left behind. i want to be a kid again and i can’t wait to be old. i’ve done a lot i’ve done nothing. i wanna be alone but i’m so lonely. like.... what the hell ??
trying to get neurotypical ppl to understand what hyperfixations are like is sooooo frustrating bc they just. don't. get it. what do you mean you can consume media without it consuming you back ????
Btw decolonizing the Levant/Palestine/Eretz Yisrael means an immediate end to Israel's violence, dismantling Israel and its apartheid, acknowledging the Nakba, and it also means all Levantine peoples are Indigenous to the region.
Including Jews, Samaritans, Palestinian Arab Muslims and Christians, and Palestinian Circassians and Druze. All.
All of these peoples have ongoing historic, cultural and religious relationships with the land. There have always been multiple peoples in the Levant/Palestine/Eretz Yisrael, any other claim is just ahistorical.
A free Palestine means right of return for all Levantine peoples, neither a Jewish nor Arab ethnostate.
A free Palestine is possible.
my biggest pet peeve is when people use unconsciously instead of subconsciously
