A Record Of Times I Shouldn't've

one of the best pieces of advice I've ever heard (for myself, at least) is that if you're in a terrible mood and NOTHING is helping, then start doing the chores/responsibilities/job stuff/etc that you've been putting off. Will it put you in an even worse mood temporarily? Probably, but you're already pissed off, so you might as well double up on it at that point 😭 there's no loss. It's not like finally getting around to cleaning the house and scheduling appointments is going to ruin the good day that you aren't currently having to begin with 💀 And then, when the bad mood passes, you'll have gotten shit done and you'll feel a lot better later, even if in the moment you're having The Worst Time Ever about it.

one very funny reason you can tell eugenics doesn't work is that all the richest people with huge generational wealth have been trying to do it to produce the ubermensch for quite a long time now, and the result is people like Elon Musk who are given opportunities others would wait a lifetime for twenty times a day and manages to just spaff out absolute turd after absolute turd 99.9% of the time, and the 0.1% of the time the thing he does that anybody in his position could have well they all cheer for him doing it until it also inevitably turns to shit

Seeing the article saying she did it because "he made a joke about scones." Like no she did it he made a joke about how she should be enslaved to a man

Having a mom who loves writing as much as you do rules

Look, when you see someone talking about a particular bit of tabletop RPG rules tech and your first reaction is "well, that just doesn't sound practical", your first question should be whether you've actually identified a problem, or whether you've merely assumed without justification that every part of the game in question other than the bit you just read about is identical to Dungeons & Dragons.

You need to understand that I get "but that doesn't make sense because how would it interact with levelling up" in my notifications like three times a week.

Megan thee stallion needs a girlfriend/wife and that’s the only solution. Any man she’s ever been seen with in the public eye has played in her face. A bitch like me would wear a CHASITY BELT for Megan until she got back home to ME

The US is crazy bc like so many people have intense conspiracy theories about the government like "I think there's a secret elite group of people who control everything" and you can tell them "actually you're not completely wrong, it's just not a secret group of people, it's a bunch of rich people and lobbyists who are doing it all out in the open" and they'll be like "hmmn I don't think it's THOSE people though. I prefer my racist & antisemitic theories"

They'll be like "I heard there's a powerful ring of pedophiles who are influencing the country" and you'll tell them "I mean yeah that's what the Epstein files are about" and they'll say "no I'm pretty sure this has to do with The Queers actually"

Conspiracy theory no one will ever accept: What if the people secretly controlling the world are the same people obviously controlling the world?

fortune magazine literally keeps a running tally

You can be like polluting the water is bad and they’ll be like no it’s not but what about those chemtrails in the sky!

reverse parasocial relationship: your idol knows everything about you

actually I need to elaborate that this is inspired by my friend telling me about how the contestants on love island are cut off from the outside world but the show keeps inviting famous guest hosts who have kept up with it so from their perspective megan Thee stallion shows up and already knows who they are and is aware of stuff they said in private asides like 24 hours ago

How do I make Google understand that when I searched for "Goth girl names" I meant that like Amalfreda and Radagonda and not like Enoby Darkness

He looked just like Fritigern of the Thervingii (and if yuo don't know who that is, get da fuck out of here!!!)

My new pet peeve is people completely misunderstanding the term Male Gaze and making the term female gaze based entirely on that misunderstanding

the white boy of the month pushing his hair back and reading poetry for the camera is not the equivalent of the dehumanization of women in visual media by way of presenting them primarily as vessels for sexual gratification

GLaDOS voice: "Would you like to see some artwork I generated? I've heard from other test subjects that AI-generated artwork produces an uncanny valley response in human viewers because they can't perceive it as fully real. They've told me that it looks absolutely hideous to them, that they can't imagine anything more disgusting than AI art. But, well I've been practicing and wanted your honest opinion. Feel free to let me know how ugly you find this by ranking it on a scale from 'vomit-inducing' to 'eye-bleeding'." A robotic arm lowers from the ceiling holding a hand mirror up to Chell's face

being a trans woman with a vagina is so cool because i get 2 g spots and a clit. she can do it all

Fallout 3 power armor mechanic and his duplicitous twin brother who says the word "uncivilized" too much.

Frankly, I think companies presenting basic health and consumer safety information as "boring," "uncool," and "not worth your care" should carry a hefty fine based on the revenue that company generates
