Turns out I like learning math, what I don’t love is other people’s lives depending on my math
”What if nobody likes my story?” Well do you like it? Your story will always have at least one fan. Write for yourself and the right audience will come along.
This is why I keep a notebook beside my bed. The issue is that then that idea remains in the notebook until I accidentally re-discover it weeks later. And by then I’m just ‘not feeling it anymore’. One time I actually gave in, sat up and wrote all night. It was glorious.
And then... by the time I wake up... I've FORGOTTEN ALL OF IT.
A terrible habit i've picked up on is complementing advice.
I love advice, and when its good and relevant and in a format I can understand well, I genuinely appreciate and encourage it.
So in response, i'll be like, "that's a good one" or "ooh i wouldn't have thought of that", etc. and idk where the line when it starts to sound more condescending than grateful is???
It doesn't help that i have this tone of voice that i have been told multiple times sounds 'permanently sarcastic', which is a whole other can of worms...
I guess accepting advice this is just one of those skills i have to put conscious effort into improving whenever the opportunity arises, until one day it'll just become part of my good communication repertoire! Excited for that :)
Call me orange the way I be meanderin

this show asks all the real questions like what if you adopted a kitten and it was a shark. what if you caught a corgi and she was the missing rich daughter that always sets a narrative in motion. what if you were a detective and there was another detective and there was an fbi guy and another fbi guy and your adhd induced sixth sense only made you aware of your position as a fictional character in an elaborately spun story. what if you were a piranha in the stream of the universe. what if you spent six years gaslighting your disabled sister to make up for a lie that you took too far. what if you broke up your band. what if your band sucked. what if you were scott pilgrim a little bit
I just saw a guy fully kneeling on the floor of this Asda, comparing two items with a third one set aside as a backup option and is this what attraction feels like?
I saw one of these signs at the train station recently and my instinctual reaction to seeing 6101 was, 'niiice that type of aluminium makes great floor joists'.
Is this my life now?
literally shoved it back under the rug and went 'i'll deal with it when its time TM'
time TM never came
in honor of ace week id like to shoutout every asexual who first thought they were bi/pan because they looked at all the genders and felt no difference and zero is equal to zero so they said "huh. must be bisexual" and then shoved their sexuality back under the rug for 3-5 years
