Vivaldi Played By The South African Elementary School Goede Hoop Marimba Band

I've done this for years with cooking, just by myself: for example I'd point at the rice as I set it to simmer, and say "You're good to simmer for about fifteen minutes," and then I'd point at the sauce and say "You're just keeping warm on a low heat, but I need to remember to check on you in a little while and make sure you're not drying out." And then I'd turn to the vegetables I needed to chop and say, "Okay, I'm all yours." I'm so much better at keeping track of things this way.

doctors should do this, although perhaps with less yelling.

If you can rank it, it's not a binary. /End image description.]

So I'm watching The Moth Effect with Kate Box. Most of TME I can take or leave but there's this one sketch in S1E3. "St Machiavelli's Political Breeding Stable"

I don't want to give anything away but...I really did not expect her to commit to the bit as hard as she did

Kate Box you perv, you delightful fucking weirdo <3

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I LOVE THIS SO MUCH, WHAT THE FUCK

Obsessed with Dulcie canonically being some kind of sex god. I think she’d break Eddie.

literally though if you feel like your life is slipping through your fingers and every day goes too fast… try doing hard things, not just taking the easy route, like reading and making art and exercising and cooking a meal from scratch and journaling, doing these things without distraction, without being absorbed on a screen… the time will stretch and you’ll be reminded that life is long and beautiful if you make it so.
