  • You may fall in love with the perfect person, but nobody stays the same forever. You’re statistically likely to grow apart, and break up.

    An “adult relationship” isn’t necessarily about love, but rather being the dependable one who will push the “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up” button you were meant to wear on your wrist, but forgot, because your grandkids were fucking around near the medicine cabinet and switched your drugs up. Now your hip has been displaced and you involuntarily donated fertiliser to the shopping mall floor at 7:45am.








  • This general attitude towards giving up when something becomes unfamiliar is wild to me, because in any discipline they’re even slightly good at, they’d take a minor hurdle as a learning experience, plus they have you to walk them through it, so it really isn’t a big deal.

    This was made abundantly clear when I installed the Jellyseerr app (basically just a webapp) on my Dad’s phone, logged in for him and walked him through this process:

    • Use the search bar
    • Select the show
    • Select the season you want
    • Click request

    “That’s too complicated I’ll just ask you when I want to watch something”

    I sent him a Signal message in a new group called “Jellyfin guide”. It should be easy to find since I’m his only Signal contact.

    Just follow the guide.

    A week later, “hey can you download this for me?”
