being a humanities major who’s friends with stem majors is so funny because you’ll ask your friends what they’re doing today and they’re like “UGH it’s so stressful i have to stabilize the reactor core for my nuclear power midterm and then i have to build the supercomputer from i have no mouth yet i must scream for my electrical engineering homework :/ what about you” and you’re like “oh well i have to read a fun little book and write an essay about gender.” and they still think you have it worse

Being a stem major who's friends with humanities majors is ALSO funny bc you ask what's goin on with them and they're like "oh yeah my day's pretty good! I only have to read 50 pages for this one class today and half a book for another one. It's much better than last week where I read three books and wrote a 10 page paper about their overlapping motifs for one class while also researching a niche period of time that our library doesn't have any resources on. How's it been for you?" and you're like "oh I have a lil packet of fun math puzzles due tomorrow." and they look at you like you're carrying the weight of the universe on your back

This is your reminder that just because something falls within the skillset you've practiced, so you can do it and you don't find it particularly hard or stressful relative to other things, it doesn't mean it isn't actually hard work you should be proud of yourself for accomplishing!

this applies to writing and art, too

no show will ever have what taskmaster has. to me. the absolute silliness. a competition show where everyone wins and everyone loses and everyone is having the time of their lives. bring in a flashlight from your kitchen as a prize. or bring in your whole oven. it's 5 points either way. you WILL build a fort out of cardboard and tape and you WILL care about it so much. the way every task is so harmless and fun and generally done with like. everyday household objects. it's just weird little challenges that no one in their right mind would ever do or be good at. but everyone wants to win so bad and they get mad when they only get 1 point. throw some ping pong balls at alex horne and maybe you'll feel better.
