Nah, I get background music because I don’t need “sound” for my thoughts. Generally it’s nice, sometimes it’s baby shark

I process thoughts visually, as typed text. It’s like a fucking ticker tape when I get going having random thoughts and I definitely experience shower thoughts.
If the goddamn early shift would learn to sweep the floor or clean up after breakfast, maybe I’d have time to close :)
That’s a great song for my students! I teach German, not French, but a LOT of my students have trouble distinguishing between the following (emboldened) vowels: tomber la chemise. This makes the difference between them really clear and will probably help sensitize them to the vowels :)
Also it’s fun to listen to.
It’s a British term for a lawyer who can plead cases in court. Baristas make coffee
Isn’t everyone a better off Ted fan? Some people just don’t know it yet.
Actually, I just realized that I have only seen Portia de Rossi in two things and they were both fucking killer. Maybe I should watch ally mcbeal…
I’ve just run a spoon under the hottest possible tap water. It’s hot enough to work and it’s not hot enough to actually burn you
Truly, all her problems looked like nails.
I’m pretty strong for being a middle aged woman (so not strong in general), and I can break a key in a lock relatively easily with just my hands.
Drink a lot of water and eat enough food. I need roughly an extra meal’s worth of food if I stay up all night. Don’t eat it all at once though, because that can make you sleepy. Listen to pumpy music if you can, and if it becomes possible to nap, up to 45 minutes helps me, but between that and about 4 hours, it just gets worse.
I go for multi day camping festivals, so it would probably be enough for admission, 2 sets of an under layer, an outer layer, a warm layer, and shoes. If you only have one outfit, you’ll have a bad time.
But if you know where to find cheap larp gear, please let me know.
Admission to all the folk dances I would visit in a year as well as the localish festivals OR admission and basic-mid range gear for a LARP fest
During the pandemic, I dated/isolated with a Unitarian. I grew up catholic and I love rituals, so it was a nice service to take part in online. They also organized a regular lunch program for people in the area who had recently been kicked out of the shelter due to the pandemic. I made about 200 lunches a week and they delivered in total about 1500 weekly, along with homemade masks (early pandemic) and bottles of hand sanitizer.
It was a really lovely and non theistic way to take part in the good about religion. Religious humanism sounds similar.
My therapist once told me he believed that aliens had been in communication with the US government since the Reagan administration and I had to think about how I wanted to react to that for a little bit. He was an incredibly helpful therapist, but I considered that fucking nuts. I totally agree that aliens likely exist in some fashion, just as a result of probability, but I don’t think they’re here or in secret communication with humans. My therapist thinking they were made me doubt his judgment in other areas. In the end, I decided that he could have a blind spot about aliens and still be an effective therapist.
I’m not religious, and though I absolutely respect and am almost jealous of the ritual/communal aspect of religion, I honestly think people who really believe in it are a bit deluded, which feels pretty judgmental and shitty of me. My attitude towards religious people has become a lot more open over time though- I was a stereotypical 15 year old atheist shithead in my catholic high school- so I can imagine that eventually I won’t feel at all condescending about it.
I don’t think I would have been at all bothered if my therapist was religious (depending on the religion), but I would not be able to be in a relationship with someone who was. Weirdly, I think I’d be more accepting of a partner believing in aliens. I guess I care more about a shared understanding of the universe with a partner and more about critical thinking skills from a therapist, lol.
Not only that, but literally directly asked them why immediately beforehand. This is a master class in missing the point.
I’m an afab something for whom these communities always felt a little iffy (they’re very welcome and it’s lovely to not have to hedge what you say as much, but I always felt they were somewhat unfair), but this comments section has helped me understand why it’s unproblematic to have them.
This is so obvious now that you’ve written it, but it never occurred to me. What a great way to phrase this.
They want emergency responders to go back and look for a small body in the event of a crash.
I work in a bakery. Bakeries are hot as fuck, so I wear shorts. They also open early as fuck, so I’m frequently walking to work sometime between 3:45 and 5:15, when it’s almost always very chilly.
Sweatshirt and shorts is basically my uniform, plus I look annoyed and I’m out in the middle of the night and fully sober. I imagine I’d put off a vibe I’m not intending to for you, lol.
I once wondered aloud how they get tanning beds to emit vitamin D. I then immediately corrected myself by saying that it was photosynthesis, which is technically correct, but doesn’t sound right in the context of animals. I did not feel smart.
