Semi-used clothes bin inside closet of course!

The real party was always in the ass anyways

Thank you!

Ye-- say what again?

Yeah thanks * adult * for the advice, why don’t you try AuDHD and see what you think of it - or rather what others think of you when you just * be yourself *

Besides couch is superior to bed, those nights when I can’t get sleep in the bed the couch provides. Couch best. Even the cushions are for some reason nicer than pillows. Should definitely consider moving to the livingroom.

The cat has seen things

I thought this was about preparing to an evaluation or similar thing you can’t really prepare to, by overthinking well in advance, and was like yeah it me.

I love that there was a bug in the code when Bitty was made and bits of brown hair from her tail and white from under the nose swapped places!

A fine scrunge that is!

We call them “manuli”, Manu is also a name in finnish and -li ending is kinda like a diminative so cute lil dude Manu!

I have made real-life friends on Instagram (well, back when insta was still semi decent), it’s much easier for me to make the first move by text than try to do it face to face. Discord maybe? Activist groups in my experience are a good place to find like-minded people and they are usually welcoming to newcomers, same thing with underground-ish/alternative art/culture spaces – if you are into any of that. Usually you can contact someone beforehand to show you around. For me it’s really difficult to go to unknown social groups alone so the usual suggestion to “start a new hobby” doesn’t really work.

Kitty looks like a mouse

Ah yes.

Also: instead of googling for the opening times better waste everyone’s time by sending a text or an email to the shop and making them spell it out for you!

Also: if you see the shop is clearly closed, lights aren’t on and you can see the opening times on the door and they say it’s not open but someone is inside better start knocking because surely they wish to serve you.

Also: never read the instructions of a product. Instead complain that it’s broken and demand a new product. Repeat.

Also: if you see a price list/menu/price tag or similar and you accidentally read it, better double check the price by asking “does this item cost what it says here”

Also: “employees only” actually means “for adventurous customers”

Also: if it says push, pull, if it says pull, push.

Bitty always looking so friendly and soft 💜

I have a relative who was a brilliant student in school, studied law, moved to China, learned the language, always very high achieving and motivated to succeed in what ever she chose to do, seemed like she was aiming high career-wise, then she met an arab guy, turned muslim to marry him, got two kids, as far as I know is a house wife now. They live in the Emirates so life must be very restricted for her. We are not close but it was quite surprising that she chose a closed life and conservative religion instead of career. But like said, I don’t know her enough to know her side of the story, but I’m sure she’s happy with her life.

A friend of mine, when I first got to know him, didn’t strike to me as a person with many goals in life and was at that point unemployed and living with his cousin, hadn’t really studied, wasn’t doing much anything. Well he got into gardening, wen’t to career school to become a gardener, one day he decides to become a landscape architect and study in the most top tier university in the country, so he just studied to the entrance exam like hell, failed a couple times and kept on pushing and finally got it. Very proud of him. Not the easiest path if you come from career school background. Also how the hell can someone be so motivated to bang their head onto the wall until they finally succeed?!

When I was younger I was offered a gig to help disassemble an abandoned cottage by hand. Turns out it had burned from the inside when a fire had spread from the fireplace - somebody had went inside to try and keep warm in the winter and ended up burning themselves and the cottage. What adds some spice to the story is the fact that in the past the cottage was a “troll’s hut” funfair kinda thing where kids, myself included, went to meet the “forest troll” and do some drawing etc.

Had nightmares about it for quite a while.

Mustikkakukko! Ja lanttukukko kans. Ymmärtääköhän ne kaalilaatikon päälle siellä?

Paikallisia kuriositeetteja nyt löytyy vaikka millä mitalla kun rupee googlailemaan, monet niistä on vaan aika “erikoisia”.

Not a short story but I recall we read Call of the Wild in school. Some nice animal cruelty for kids to think about.

Works with every other kind of dish too
