Sometimes I make a Plan in my head of what I’m going to do. Today’s Plan was go to this specific cafe and order these two specific things and pay using this specific method. You know I think about it all for a flawless social interaction. So I set off walking in that direction. But surprise surprise, I came across a much closer cafe. Indeed, it made a lot more sense to go here instead. But I had not Planned for this step to be changed. And so the rest of the Plan went totally out the window in my mind when I stepped into that cafe - I completely forgot what I was originally gonna order and got something different, I forgot to order the second thing, I even paid using a different method than I had set out to do.
It’s hard to explain the Plan to someone, but maybe it’s more like in my mind each step of a Plan, rather than being laid out on the ground and easily interchangeable, is stacked like a precarious Jenga tower, and taking out a piece too close to the bottom will jeopardize all the steps above it. Then I have to rebuild the Jenga tower from scratch
one thing i find really fun about the spongebob world is everyone has a name a regular guy could also have even if it is in some way altered. it really is so easy to believe there could be a guy named Bob who wakes up every day and says Hiii to his friend Patrick and goes to work with his neighbor Edward at a burger joint owned by a man named Eugene across the street from a competing yet failing restaurant owed by a man named Sheldon and his wife Karen. if I came over and he had a cat or even a snail named Gary that wouldn't be weird either I would laugh and say "that's a good name" and think he was really funny for that
started to watch spongebob because I only ever watched the first season as a kid and your sponge posting made me wanna watch it and I forgot how legitimately funny this show was, but it also made me remember our school tried to ban it once because they thought it caused kids to be stupid
As a spongebob expert I can tell you it does make kids stupid, but it’s worth it
I really appreciate how, while you could choose to read it as such, SpongeBob and Sandy’s relationship is never made to be explicitly romantic. They said “I like you” to each other when they first meant and it was platonic!! They’ve been smashing amatonormativity/heteronormativity since day one!!!!
