HI!! I'm Noel (or Arbor, whatever) and sometimes I draw things and sometimes I talk about my dogs or fish and most of the time I am yelling with various stages of coherency about even more things. It is tons of fun. I keep most of my reblogs over onto a sideblog, but sometimes I just want to talk about things here. I try to be super mindful of my tags - if I ever post anything and I'm missing a tag that you want me to use, please don't hesitate to let me know!

If a girl is to do the same superman thing where he takes off his disguise, we just look pervy. Not the same effect

one of the most enlightening realizations ive had was finding out that non-24 hour circadian rhythm people were a pretty large group and most of us have oddly similar cycles of usually around 28hr internal "days" and this masquerades as "insomnia" but if allowed to sleep and wake naturally we will just advance forward through time an extra 2-4 hours a day at a relatively stable pace. we can't go to school or jobs or even run errands on normal schedules without massive pharmacological and behavioral intervention. most of the people who have been diagnosed or figured it out themselves will report horrific, life-ruining disruption in their professional lives and terrible health from accrued lack of sleep. this disorder is most common in vision-impaired people which seems to suggest it's related to light cues. anyway just thinking about this as extremely loud yard work woke me up at 8am for the second day in a row

At some point the scroll wheel click on my mouse gave out, and that was inconvenient, but not awful. I just dealt with it, rebound any keys that needed to use that when they did.
I dealt with it for a while. Aware that I needed to replace my mouse, but not bothering to order a new one. It took over a year and a half before I ordered a new mouse. It got delivered. I set it down.
Five months later i'm sitting at my desk, thinking, wow, I really need to buy a new mouse, this one is dying in all sorts of ways. I look to the side, and see a small box on the shelf by my desk, within arms reach. "What is that box," I think to myself. "It has an outline of a mouse on it. Is that the box my mouse came in?" I pick it up and am shocked to find a brand new mouse inside. I have no memory of buying this. It's been sitting within arms reach for five months - I checked the delivery date. I swear I have not seen it there a single day before this, but I do distinctly remember setting my sewing needles down on that little box innumerable times in the last few months, thinking it was such a handy spot to make sure I knew where I set my needles down.
It took me a further four months before I initiated the very simple task of unplugging my mouse and replacing it with the new one. This tool that I use almost daily. I could have replaced it nine months ago. it needed replacing two+ years ago. If not for the paper trail of evidence I would assume someone else bought it and put it there, but no. It was me. Those eighty HDs work so hard.
ADHD is so embarrassing. I ran out of conditioner and I've been too busy to go buy more so I've been showering without for like 2 days. I just turned around and finally noticed four bottles of conditioner on my shelf. I stocked up. I always stock up. How did I even forget that I stocked up? The bottles just faded into the background. What's wrong with me

They don’t tell you this but in the United States there is an extremely low chance to encounter a vehicle shaped like a hotdog

I remember back in my compulsory education they taught us to use the keyboard like this but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a single person type like this ever.

You're about to close on your very own, suspiciously affordable and comfortable house. Just before you sign the contract, the realtor shows you the required legal disclosure: your new house is haunted by the type of presence you'll get from this spinner wheel.
Of course it is.
