Problem is God isn't real BUT "if the whole universe was a guy what would he be like?" Is easily one of the most fun things to think about.

My one friend group can't stop saying, "See you in hell!" in a cheerful voice instead of, "Talk to you later!" and my other friend group can't stop calling things "penis" instead of "cool" or "good", so I just unironically uttered the phrase, "Sounds penis, see you in hell," as I got off the phone.

i keep forgetting that most adults simply grow too tall to play on the playground and it no longer fits them. that + the contempt for play so many societies have makes having fun exercise difficult.

but anyway people were commenting about how many new outside free gyms for adults are going up like ‘why can’t they just build adult sized playgrounds why even outside do we have to do the gym’ and it’s a fair point. they’ve got hanging bars and no jungle gym. climbing the stairs to a high slide is a workout with the slide reward. you could argue that children who are too small would attempt to use it and hurt themselves but there are already different sized playgrounds for children based on their age/growth.

the free outside gyms give you the same boring motions over and over and no room for imaginative play. it is possible (ofc) to find fun exercise but most examples (trampoline park, ninja warrior, rock climbing) are costly. they love to beat playing out of their people and then cry that no one is exercising.

genuinely wild to me when I go to someone's house and we watch TV or listen to music or something and there are ads. I haven't seen an ad in my home since 2005. what do you mean you haven't set up multiple layers of digital infrastructure to banish corporate messaging to oblivion before it manifests? listen, this is important. this is the 21st century version of carving sigils on the wall to deny entry to demons or wearing bells to ward off the Unseelie. come on give me your router admin password and I'll show you how to cast a protective spell of Get Thee Tae Fuck, Capital

i wish i could remember who made the recommendation to "make a list of all the different ways someone could feel about a topic in your fictional setting and then make each of them a character" because it is a great technique and is also extremely fun

“return to old trek,” but it’s the return of 20+ episode seasons, of bringing contemporary scifi writers to write episodes, of doing social commentary so acute it blasts the “it’s just escapism” argument to bloody bits, and most important, the return of silly costumes and camp

You can tell when someone’s frame of reference for “normal people” is more “people at the church sponsored ice cream social” and less “people on the bus”

i took my friend to Hocking Hills state park yesterday and on our hike I talked all about the (now retired) park naturalist who mentored me years ago, along with the professor who also mentored me and how they got me my first job in my field after college, like I went on and on about my memories of them and the time I spent with them in the park, and then we got to a cave and they were both inside. I hadn’t seen either of then since I moved away seven years ago and then I went back to the state park for the first time since and they were just there. in a cave. they went to the cave together. one of them saw me and said “oh hi! what are you doing here?” like hey fancy us all being here in this cave together huh.
