IM SO SICK OF YOU ALL

No nuance allowed. please share for a bigger sample 💕💕💕💕💕

*by eat i mean how do you prefer your cereal.

#when i was a kid i always ate cereal with warm milk and it baffled me that people used cold milk #it's like having cold tea i just couldn't fathom that people preferred that?? #that's also how i poured the milk first bc you had to warm it up beforehand and when i stumbled upon the Discourse i was like #but doesn't your cereal get extra soggy if you warm it up in the milk??? #might be my most controversial food opinion yet but when i have cereal in milk i still prefer it warm #tho i mostly eat cereals/granola in yoghurt nowadays #other stuff

saw a poll about dry/humid heat and like OBVIOUSLY everyone preferred dry heat but. would love to know what everyone considers to be “too hot”

me personally it’s a hard cutoff at 75°F. don’t need anything more than that thank you 🫶🫶🫶

#oops misread the instructions and thought this said ideal temperature #i think everything past like 28°C just registers as Hot to me #pains me to know that that was a rare occurrence in summers when i was tiny but now it's basically a given.... #pls I'm not made to withstand heat i grew up in a rainy european sea climate #also the hotter it is the worse chest dysphoria gets 🥴🥴 #uh anyway i haven't really answered the question yet. i think max is 26°C for me. like hot but not the worst. above that i am actively dying #other stuff

☆★ NON-ZERO-SUM GAME ★☆

A chip may weigh only a few grams, but it has the mighty power to upset the balance of the scale. In the gambler's hands, the chip leaps lightly and lands softly, like a key to destiny. It causes the heart to beat, as if a piece of gold is stricken with rocks. In that split second, the decision for heaven or hell is made.

This makes so much sense

#oh. OH #it's so simple but it never really clicked.... #this makes me feel a lot better about not being able to give as much as other people actually. thank you op #other stuff #important

haii :3 what's smth you think is cool?

for eg, did you know bristlenose catfish need to eat wood to help digest their food? :3c *fun fish fact* 🐠

that is a fun fish fact!! the thing i keep thinking of is that human eyes (not sure if it's also a thing in other species) have their own immune system separate from that of the rest of the body, because if the main system found out about your eyes it'd attack them and make you go blind. not sure what eyes ever did to it but y'know ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Instead of apologizing for liking "trashy" media, consider: what is it doing well? If you like it, if it's making you feel pleasure and interest, then it must be succeeding at something. Is it shaping a set of emotional beats that you find satisfying to watch play out? Did it craft a character you find really compelling? Is something in the styling and aesthetics speaking to you? Did it unexpectedly resonate with a mood or experience you needed to see reflected right then?

However shallow or flawed a piece of media is, if you like it, it's because of something it did well - at least well enough to affect you, on the day that you encountered it.

There are a lot of good reasons to acknowledge this. One is about gratitude and manners: someone worked hard on that thing, and if they provided something that gave you happiness and pleasure, it's nice to honor that. Another is about breaking down the insidious habit of sorting everything into simple good/bad boxes. A piece of media, like a person, can do a lot of things wrong and a lot of things right, and the things on one side do not magically erase the other.

But the most important reason, I believe, is to get in the habit of celebrating what brings you pleasure and happiness. All your life there have been and there will be people telling you that you find joy in the wrong things, that if a particular thing makes you feel good it shows that there's something wrong with you. I reject that utterly. If a particular thing makes you feel good then there's something right, about you and about that thing. I'm not saying that pleasure is the only important thing or that every pleasure should be indulged indiscriminately. All I'm saying is that pleasure is in and of itself a good thing, and deserves notice.

#i rewatched the twilight saga again recently after i saw a good video essay on it #and it helped me find what i thought was so intriguing about it when i first read the books #to my 15 year old brain it was the perfect escapist fantasy #supernatural creatures that were rich as hell just living the life they wanted in a fancy ass house in the middle of nowhere?? #my depressed burnt out ass would sign the fuck up #like yeah narrative wise it's not a masterpiece. but god stepping into a different world where you are powerful and everything is beautiful #not to mention to have a protagonist fight to make her own choices even if everyone else around her told her she couldn't or shouldn't #that was the shit. to not have to worry about your future bc you lived on your own pace and had lots of time #living outside of the confines of capitalism and modern society and growing into your own ON YOUR OWN TERMS. yeah. yeah i vibed with that #and don't we all want a Creacher so dedicated to us they would climb into our room at night to keep us company #it really wasn't all that much about the romance to me but to a lot of people it was and that's so valid!! we all need our junk food media #the fact that it's junk food doesn't mean it's bad!! like everyone craves junk food sometimes and that's bc sometimes it just hits!! #anyway time to shut up. go forth and enjoy your shitty media #other stuff

#i like to sort stand-alone books by colour. gradient goes nyoom #but series cannot be separated. and also the height has to make a gradual up or down curve i don't want it to look all spiky #tbf now my way of sorting is just 'wherever i still have room' bc my books are breaching the containment of my bookshelf #i have some space left on a different shelf but that's only for manga. I can't mix those!!! so stacking books it is #i need to rearrange my books.... will do as soon as i have time and energy to do a bedroom deep clean #other stuff
