last song

Sarniezz by Angine de Poitrine, I like to put them on when I need to focus, because I get distracted by lyrics, but need something interesting enough to keep my brain engaged.

current obsession

…Disco Elysium I fear. I started playing it when I got out of hospital and had to stay with a family member for a period of time while I recovered. I was (and still am) being denied treatment by my GP, and needed something to keep my mind busy and try to adjust to my brain fog and memory being much worse. It was a game I’d heard about, and it was on Game Pass, so I gave it a try, and my ass got hooked.

currently reading

You Weren’t Meant To Be Human by Andrew Joseph White. For transparency’s sake I will say that I know I started reading it, but this was before my hospital stint, and I have absolutely no memory of reading it or what it’s about, but plan to start again soon.

currently working on

Writing wise, I swear I am still chipping away at my judblanc fic, god willing I’ll get the next chapter out before 2027, lol. I’ve also been doing a lot of Lino cutting, and am currently painting a picture frame for a Pan’s Labyrinth print I made for my ex film teacher.

currently wearing

Plaid dad shorts and a Stephen Rhodes t-shirt. And I’m sat on the floor because my bed, desk, and chair are all covered in painted things that are drying.

last search

“Costa lemon curd muffin copycat recipe” cause I have a fridge full of lemon curd and a distant memory of the Costa lemon muffins my Nan used to buy me back when I could eat dairy.

@sleep-gummies @not-really-a-conjunction

Figs were an imported delicacy at the time, and the donkey just managed to eat them (without being given any on purpose). Seeing a donkey eating several times their own value in figs, the philosopher looked to his servant who might have been standing there either in shock, despair, or both, and said something along the lines of “Oh don’t just stand there. Get him some (undiluted) wine to wash the figs down with”. With (undiluted) wine also being an expensive drink.

This is lowkey so me

So some fanartist drew a “sexy” (read: booby) version of a (cartoon) character who is traditionally very non-sexualised. Fans of the character got mad about it because it’s kind of groundbreaking how that character is written and portrayed and this art totally ignores the entire point of the character. They demanded the art be deleted. In response to that other people said, well what the fanartist did may be distateful but they have every right to draw what they’re into. The two sides fight for days and each starts a harassment campaign and even report their “opponents’” accounts.

So far so typical. But things eventually come to a head and they decide that this will be settled by votes - not through a poll. Through donations to a children’s education charity via each side’s portal. Whoever can get the highest amount of donation wins.

And they agree that yes, they do know how to eat, in theory. The problem is the watermelon. Surely, if they figured out where to start, they'd figure out how to do it, but they have no clue how to get started with it.

This goes back and forth. No, it's not an emotional issue, they're not afraid of the watermelon. They can eat any other fruit, other sweet things, and other watery things ("it's watery?" they ask you). Is it the colour? Do they have a problem eating things that are green on the outside and red on the inside?

"It's red on the inside?"

Wait, they've never seen the inside? At this point you have to ask them how, exactly, they eat the watermelon. So to demonstrate, they take a whole, round, uncut watermelon, and try to bite straight into it. Even if they could bite through the crust, there's no way to get human jaws around it.

"Oh, you're supposed to cut it first. You cut the crust open and only chew through the insides."

And they had no idea. All their life this person has had no idea how to eat a watermelon, despite of being told again and again and again that it's easy, it's ridiculous to struggle with something so simple, there's no way that someone just can't eat a watermelon, how can you even mange to be bad at something as fucking simple as eating watermelon.

https://drmaciver.substack.com/p/how-to-do-everything had a nice list of additional examples like this, with (non-)obvious major insights with regard to opening stitched bags, cleaning your bathroom floor, using a search engine, catching a ball, pinging somebody, proving a theorem, playing sudoku, passing as “normal”, improving your writing, generating novel ideas, and solving your problem.

If you’d asked me six months ago how to get better at something, I’d probably have pointed you to how to do hard things. I still think this is a good approach and you should do it, but I now think it’s the wrong starting point and I’ve been undervaluing small insights. [...]

Every time he tells me this story, his frustration by this point in the story, years later, is evident. He still sounds frustrated by it, despite all the time that passed. Teachers had been giving him crap for years because he hadn't been making much progress with the instrument.

When he got to the private instructor, she acknowledged his frustration, and asked him to try to play for her. He did, and she saw all he was doing. She then did something no one else had done before. She asked him to put his mouthpiece on a different clarinet and try to play the same notes. Like magic, it worked. She looked at the clarinet he had been using and found that the school's clarinet needed it's pads replaced.

He went from last chair to first chair nearly overnight, having been taught far more techniques than typically taught at that age just to overcome the broken instrument preventing him from making noise.
