i think we need to take the adjective “adult” away from porn and from twee lifehack tiktokers bc there are some emotional experiences that simply do not happen to you in your teens and i have no other way to describe them

example: my grandpa passed away last year, and my mom is still in the long process of dealing with his stuff. i was helping her dig through some boxes and found this thick leather bound notebook. she said yeah, that’s his address book. i don’t know how to throw it away. i said okay, i’m taking it. it’s mine now, not your problem. and it was obviously a relief for her, letting me take this book full of decades and decades of her dad’s handwriting and allow herself to passively believe that it isn’t gone, even if she intellectually understands otherwise. but i couldn’t throw it away either. and it ended up in yet another box that moved with me to my new apartment and got shuffled around from pile to pile until i finally thought, no, this wasn’t the deal. i owe it to my mother to feel this sadness, to perform this tiny sliver of mourning for her so that she doesn’t have to, and by hoarding this useless object i’m not holding up my side of the bargain. so i threw it away, and i felt sad, but a lighter kind of sadness. now that’s adult

#anybody can get railed what do you know about the mundanity of grief? #anyway (tags from @ macklesufficient)

they dont tell you this but like half of adulthood is just washing the same FUCKING pan

WASHING THE FUCKING PAN AGAIN!!!!!

i do think it’s funny when you’ve been into a thing long enough that you’ve done all the serious analysis you can do so now you’re mostly just thinking up looney tunes scenarios to put the characters in

looney tunes scenarios which are most importantly still impeccably in-character because of all the aforementioned serious analysis

THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN

That last fatal scream tho
