Got the full wedding schedule (the day before. Yes.) This is uh. Lol. Sure. Okay.

I'm noticing a lot of generous assumptions being made about how long it takes to get on and off Lake Shore Drive

I'm sorry for using this term but I'm gonna be honest this also does not take into account how many people in this wedding party are both too broke for Uber and too pussy to get on the red line. The lack of shuttle will be an issue re: timeliness given that the ones who can afford an Uber will be hopping on the CTA and the ones who can't are, presumably, going to have to call their parents for Zelle money at 6am

Unscheduled photos midday in Saturday next to some of the largest tourist traps in the city okay okay alright alright okay alright. You see a fat Asian in a tutu next to an improvised wedding photography session looking like they're contemplating jumping, it IS me and you DO need to fucking kill me before I do something

This is low on my extensive list of beefs but we're also sharing a room with some other wedding attendees which means unless we do a bathroom quickie I will not be able to fuck for five full days, marking the longest dry spell I'll have gone through while still being in the same time zone as my partner since I think like 2023

My family is threatening me if I don't make some time to go see them when I'm in Chicago for the first time in 2026 so I'm trying to figure out how to trek to goddamn Schaumburg, armpit of northern Illinois, and back in time to get enough sleep for my 9am hair/makeup session in preparation for the 5pm wedding that I'll be spending the eight hours in the middle helping prepare for. No there is no typo there. No I don't really understand what the plan was there

not to sound ancient but what does 'farming' mean

Friendly unfriendly reminder that "Ovulation is like an animal being in heat and makes you stupid" has been a keystone of western misogyny pretty much since Europe worked out what periods are.

someone said it's also a cautionary tale about mistreating your wife and I think that's spot on especially for other related types of stories e.g. the crane wife. like I think these stories are very much Husband Anxiety Stories. the Woman-Creatures are black boxes whose interior experience it is impossible to know and who have strange and often seemingly arbitrary rules that you must follow or else they will disappear. idk. like. that's why I think that any empowering-to-women-ness qualities of these stories is incidental. I think they're externalized anxiety about coercive societal heterosexuality and the inability to truly Know one's wife in such circumstances.

oooo yes absolutely!

was just talking to Story about this and he told me about one folktale where a guy meets a beautiful woman at a lake and she brings a bountiful dowry of like one million fat cows and such and she is of course a fairy so she's like "my one requirement in our bargain is that if you strike me three times I will leave" and in many versions of the story the husband doesn't ""actually"" strike her -- each time it's something like, one 'strike' involves her forgetting her gloves inside and he walks out and taps her on the shoulder with her gloves, but she tells him that counts as striking her. this sort of thing. which is TRANSPARENTLY like "whoa wouldn't it be fucked up if your wife could enforce consequences for behavior she said was harmful, even if according to your cultural norms it was fine, and you didn't see it as a big deal?" like... lol. what if women could actually be the ones who decided whether or not any given action their husbands took against them was harmful? IMAGINE... PREDEY SCARY....

Evil Shakespeare be like: MacDeath

my most Millennial trait is that i want big screen to think properly. to compose my thoughts. app exists for your thing but no website? bad bad bad not good for think, need big screen for think. i wrote this post on the small screen btw

I read somewhere that one thing that really pisses off companies about Millennials is that we won't make big purchases on our phones, we always feel compelled to get out a laptop or hop on a desktop for it
