A Bit early on the Reveal, maybe?

I think I'm a pretty normal guy for this day and age. I'm open minded about most things. I still don't like people living together unless your married or in the military. I'm also understanding that sometimes people need to let loose a bit. If I'm at a party and things get out of hand, no problem from this guy. Go ahead and let your hair down, just not your pants. I've been trying to follow this whole we can pick our gender if we want to. It's a bit weird to me but I say everyone is allowed to fly their own freak flag. We know a couple that will be having their first child and want to have a gender reveal party. I mentioned how it seems a bit presumptuous to announce your child's gender until they have a chance to make their own choice. My friend asked what I was talking about? I explained how sure the ultrasound might say a boy, but he might arrive and decide he is a girl and then what is he gonna do? Your sweet little Darleen might want to be Donald. Or perhaps your boy Beauregard might prefer to be called Brenda. My friend said I was nuts, but I just said whatever works for you and the misses. I don't want to be known as the Told You So Guy. I have a young grandson who told me he's a rabbit. I asked my daughter why is he claiming to be a rabbit? She just rolled her eyes and said you got me,but he is eating more veggies, so he can remain a rabbit for now. I let my friends know I will be giving you gender neutral gifts. I will be avoiding the colors Blue and Pink. I might also give a tool belt which can hold a hammer and screwdrivers but also a hairdryer and curling iron. I told my wife how we've needed an excuse to have a party so why not I have a gender reveal party for me. She said you are going to reveal what? Well I don't want to give it away but I'll reveal if I'm really a man or perhaps something else. Doesn't it sound exciting? I asked my lady if she'd like a gender reveal party but she said no thanks, her sexuality is still fluid. I explained to my wife how no matter what's revealed I'm still her man. Her Mr. MIcrowave, I don't take long to get heated up. My lady said: "Yeah, and after 20 seconds you go ding." She might not get invited to my party with that attitude.

Honestly growing up is realizing that normal people don’t have to set timers to remember they’re cooking ramen… which notoriously only takes 3 minutes to cook… and maybe I do have adhd

#Trying to explain to my sister in law that I sometimes accidentally set a microwave time to 1 minute when I mean for it to be 20 seconds #and I go ‘oh it’s fine I will just stop it at 20 seconds’ #but then in those 20 seconds /I then forget I’m cooking something/ #bc my attention is drawn away #and next thing I know I’ve got a cookie that’s literally on fire in the center #and the way this is such a common thing for me #(not necessary w a cookie lol. But the cookie one has happened enough that I’ve legit set off multiple fire alarms w it) #Or yeah the fact that I p much /have/ to set a timer for pasta bc I will 100% forget I’m making pasta if I don’t #Or the literal HELLSCAPE that is laundry bc there’s so fucking many steps to it and it’s soooooo easy to forget it in the washing machine #I was just proofreading these Fucking tags and I forgot the word ‘forget’ in the one abt pasta #I laid out all my evidence that I’ve secretly squirreled away for 10 years to my sister in law #and she just went O.O yeah I don’t think you’re hallucinating it; this isn’t normal #and it was v validating #I just don’t want to seem like I’m saying it for clout or what the fuck ever but I’ve struggled with this my whole life #but on the other hand it’s no longer as big of a deal now that I’m not in school… school was bad.. I don’t know how I did so well #Bc mentally I fucking Drowned #idk if I really want or need to try and get a diagnosis or anything #Esp bc I’m sure that’s not even almost the worst thing wrong with me and I don’t want to open that can of worms #regardless man I wish I weren’t me <3 I fucking /suck/ #lea speaks #vent

am i tripping or did there used to be a tmnt human au fic that was.. ahem.. set in hiroshima during the bombing…… i remember coming across it yeeeears ago, and simply skimming through it out of curiosity. if my memories serves me right, the boys were separated by the blast, i think splinter was killed and it was about them surviving the aftermath of it all…. i haven’t gone to search if this fic still exists, mostly because morally? is that even right??? did i dream this or did anyone else read this fic back in the day…

#it just kinda popped up in my head because i was watching barefoot gen the other day #and reading YouTube comments about brotherhood and survival and like. it was like a microwave timer went off in my head #all those years that fic was buried in my subconscious. if it is real that is #please tell me someone else read this fic !! please !!!!! #tmnt #fic stuff

Hi I don't know what the fuck im talking about here is a weirdly personal ramble about Tavros from my homestuck rotten brain I sent my friends from the fucking hairdresser:

Im having such complex thoughts on tavros while the pink dye is being applied so I put them here rather than subject my poor hairstylist to them: im just thinking about how like, he's a "late bloomer" so to say. Like, he still plays childish games, he's obsessed with fairies and pupa pan and games. His life sucks, and just keeps going downhill, and it makes him retreat into these sources of escapism, but its not actually solving the problem. I think about him telling Jade "the only fun I ever had playing this game is when I was asleep" a lot. He's a heartbreak feeling left behind by your peers. I see a lot of 20 such year olds freaking out over how they have friends getting married and having careers, but its also something so entrenched in puberty. You feel left behind socially as kids around you start getting their owns complexes to disregard and abandon "childish" things. This is seen so many times, a lot in Vriska but also a lot of the other trolls and even the kids, and a lot of them expressthis *to Tavros* . But tavros doesn't abandon this things, they're like, the best things in his life. Like, ni wonder he didn't know what to do when vriska kissed him, or when gamzee offered to make out, I would have had the same reaction at that age. Meanwhile I have heard people directly talk to me in 8th grade about having make out session in previous years. This doesn't have a point, im just having a lot of thoughts I can even imagine how long this is by now oh boy I guess its also like, I know I keep hammering home how the story seems to forget how young its own characters are, but tavros very much feels his age.

Yeah anyways I may be unpacking further why I relate (me at 13) to tavros. I was always friends people younger than me, I was into "childish" things, absolutely massive prude, I didn't even start my period until 8th grade. I understand how he's feeling, especially being pushed so much by vriska to grow up. She has that part talking about how he's always too late. Sorry "l8" "too l8 to kiss me. Too l8 to kill me." And everything she does doesnt work, if anything it does the opposite. She says she wants to make him stronger, but she's the reason he's disabled. She wants him to grow a spine, to fight back at her, but all of her lashing out only tears him down more, she wants him to kill her when she ascends to godhood, but he can't and its implied he was ashamed and horrified and he slept so much to escape thinking about it. He's falling behind, and he's not able to help his team the same way, I won't deny that, but can you *really* blame him? Hes a sad, scared, lonely kid, and his life frankly kinda sucks my poor little meow meow out in the rain. But like yes he does very little to actually fight back and improve his situation. He's very passive, things really just happen to him. Wow ok for surface level tavros is my son, but also he *is* pretty annoying, but also he's me at 13, but also a wet cat in the rain and its a lite his fault but thats gonna be a whole other tangent becauseI haven't even gotten into how well he maintainsa smile, but also fuck vriska a little bit, she's **really** not helping

#homestuck tavros #homestuck #Homestuck rant #rant #character analysis #you don't understand him like i do #he rotates around and around in my brain like its a microwave and when the timer goes off i have insane feelings and a need to rant

Nothing like a radiation accident to remind you that you are meat.

#I may have read/watched way too much about radiation accidents this week #the radiation accident I was involved in was starting the microwave instead of using it as a timer #and microwaved the cat food for 3mins before i noticed and turned it off #cats still ate it it's free meat yum yum #but the microwave stank like cooked veal lol

adhd life hack: while waiting for water to boil, you can trick your brain into doing chores

But Watch Out

#personal #adhd #adhd problems #cooking #this is why i lean heavily on set and forget meals #pop em in the toaster oven that TURNS OFF after the timer is done #or the microwave which TURNS OFF when the timer is done #and sure #i sometimes end up with cold food becauae i forgor #but at least i dont end up burning something because i forgor #i forgor

i'm sure there's a numerological reason for this that they didn't cover in my medieval lit classes but i think 6 is known as the evil number because it's 3 (number of perfection) multiplied by 2 (least trustworthy, stable number), creating the mirror image of perfection. likewise 8 is the 2nd most evil number because it's the two worst numbers multiplied (2, see above; 4, traditional number of death). it's not as evil as 2 (base numerical evil) but more evil than 6 (still a multiple of the number of perfection). 7 can contain evil numbers but 7 is the most of-itself number on the number line so the evil cancels out. 5 isn't really evil but i hate it. it's a smug number, true neutral, so intensely boring that i'd say it's being boring out of spite but i don't think it has the gumption for spite. and 9 is the backbone of our society, no number has such beautiful multiples as 9. did you ever notice that the multiples of 9 from 1-10 are mirror images of each other? no one appreciates 9. eight-track tapes should have been nine-track tapes and i'll stand by that til my dying day.

#[book character voice] i often think about this #aster chat #every day i am fighting for my life against the forces of the numbers 8 and 2. every day i am cautiously avoiding them #on volume knobs and stitch counts and microwave oven timers

thanks to the adhd tip i saw about doing chores while waiting for stuff to finish (like food) it actually works this is how i often clean my kitchen

#txt #i dont remember where i saw it 😔 #like if im warming something up in the microwave ill empty the dishwasher or even put stuff in and i make it a race #cause theres a set timer #or if im preheating the oven or cooking water etc #it helps because theres a challenge and also because there isnt a lot of time invested #i would spend my time bored anyway while i wait doing nothing

[lumimis]

gonna make nyself a warm milk I hope I don't break anythign

#last time I used a microwave alone #I broke the timer thing for a bit #❤️

[anguis-sapphire]

I can have a snack at one in the morning. as a treat

#perks of living alone: nobody will get woken up by the microwave beeping loudly at every step of setting the timer #today was a very tiring day but I got to play a game with a friend and listen to other friends talk about other games #and that can be enough to make a day good I think #a call from the void #posts made by me #it may not have been wise to stay up this late considering I woke up at 7:30 and have had two labs today #but oh well. the consequences can be tomorrow’s problem. if there are any.

#also applys to waiting for the microwave timer to be done #why am i like this

Bambi AU where it's literally just Dark Cacao is the Great Prince, Dark Choco is Bambi, and it's literally just the plot of Bambi II with absolutely minimal changes.

That is all.

#i'm not even going to dignify it with a tag lol #i jest i jest but the great prince lives rent-free in my brain #i leave him in the microwave and turn it on just to watch him rotate and cook and then i leave until the timer goes off #then forget to take him out #then when i remember he's still in there i turn the microwave on again and start the process over and over

When you have edibles are you supposed to feel like you're going through a tunnel back in time?

#i may have been trying to cope with some stuff and taken more than the recommended amount for first timers #and mixed different edible products #and i could barely microwave a plate of pizza rolls after that #or is that normal your first time?

[crowcomet]

im making multiple batches of cookies in my kitchen. fighting for my life rn. why is this so stressful.

#baking #i put my butter in the microwave to melt it and i let it heat up for too long #the screech i let out when i saw the timer was so unnecessarily loud
