Genuine Question:

Ode to my week

Yesterday I bought some fruit

I pulled some plants up by the root

The day before I washed my clothes

And ruined the entire load

My ancient shelf fell off the wall

It launched my file box with its fall

And took my yarn and picture frame

The glass has broken, not my games

I need to do some gardening

My knees say that’s not happening

But still I got to pet my cat

And give her a cute little hat

My job does not appreciate

My physical restrictive trait

There’s so much paperwork of late

It’s something that my doctor hates

Today I tried to drink root beer

It fell and my whole room is smeared

I swear hekkin everywhere

My outlet, art book, printer, chair

This week is a chaotic mess

There’s been some good I must confess

I’m still sending an SOS

Ridiculous- just let me rest

Space pasta puns

So like if fancy smart scientists decided that the theoretical process of what happens when you enter a black hole is “spaghettification,” I think we should brainstorm what the other pastas would be.

The black hole thing is because of the “infinite stretching and squashing” I believe. So like. How does one become lasagnaed? Fettucinied? Farfalled?

Fellow headache havers/haters:

I have sinus headaches all the time- it’s allergies, it’s whatever.

What is not whatever is the time I went to pet sit for my cousin.

I stopped for lunch, got a blinding headache in the middle of it, scrambled to my car, drove to a store, found out it was closed, jogged a block to a store to see if they had painkillers, they did not, jogged back to my car, tried not to fall over, realized I locked my keys and phone in the car in a distant city, felt irrational dread that I couldn’t reset in real life, went to an antique store and asked to borrow their phone, called my mom, she couldn’t find my key, called for roadside assistance, they said they’d be an hour, mom calls back and found my key, I gotta call the company again to cancel the assistance, wait 20 minutes for my mom to show up. She was so frazzled she didn’t bring pain killers, I get into my car and realize I still haven’t cared for my cousins pet yet, I go take care of the pet and successfully don’t die, I drive all the way home and still haven’t died, then I finally take meds 2 hrs later and go to sleep.

…

Anyways is that normal?

TW: prescription side effects..? Idk if that’s a TW but I’ll say it anyway

So like I’ve discovered a double edged side effect of sertraline. If u forget to take it it reminds u but it reminds you with a feeling I can best describe as:

-chromatically aberrating for 0.5 seconds.

- your brain goes “!!”

-softest bio emp

-like when u get vertigo and the world tilts but there’s no tilting involved

-astral projecting out of ur body by a centimeter for a second

-your brain to body signal lagged

Random stuff ppl moving to WA might wanna know (that I don’t hear ppl talk abt):

-if u live near a small river u will occasionally experience routine log-removal traffic

-Seattle gets visited by a pirate ship each year

-woods that are not connected to a park have a 70% chance of being overran by brambles

-the main natural disaster in western wa is trees. I am only kinda joking.

- school may close due to bear.

-most of our stuff isn’t built for extreme temps. Ice storms and heatwaves above like 105 tend to cause structural and travel issues.

-roadkill is kinda just an ever present background noise

-Umbrellas are used… but only for full-on storms. They’re kinda just a hassle when u only use them from the car to the building. So unless it’s gonna soak you in 30 seconds…

-people often either quite like or straight up hate Seattle

-Lots of trails, few sidewalks

-Historical references that ppl outside of WA might not know of: Oso, the Grand Coulee Dam, The Equator shipwreck, Marysville Pilchuck High School, the Denny regrade houses

Most insane things I’ve seen while on the road:

- mattress on the highway got ran over by a semi. It went under, the semi waddled, the mattress bunched up, then ejected out the other end like a frog. No one was injured.

- “saw” (heard) a boom as a car passed us on a two way. Looking behind, the car was sideways and smoking. We were not hit and did not hit. We assumed a tire blew or something.

- 3 separate 2 car accidents on the same stretch of highway, separated by like a mile each

- Like 17 broken apart black baby dolls on the road. All different brands and not even slightly in one piece?? I have so many questions????

- A deer ran into us. Into the side of our car.

- A gas price that started with a $1.

- A car with red headlights. Or maybe flipped rear and front lights. Or maybe it was somehow driving backwards on the highway…

- A dude on a bicycle that was also a light-up unicorn. It reminded me of that scene in merry poppies with the carousel race.

Did you know? I have a face.

Something that always bothers me about the progressive removal of culture from the batfamily (other than the obvious) is that… if you don’t understand where Dick Grayson and his family come from, Robin makes no sense. Why would Batman, Mr. Greyscale camouflage, allow his partner and protege to dress up like a moving target? A traffic light? To understand, you have to acknowledge why he chose those colors, and what they mean to him and his family. That may have gotten lost over the years as the mantle was passed, but the original costume had meaning to a grieving child.
