A friend told me I should be using bottled water to make my tea, since the tap water around here has a lot of chlorine in it and that’ll throw off the flavor of some of my more delicate teas.

I tried it. Boiled the water in a kettle, poured it into the cup to brew, and it all bounced right back out. Made a hell of a mess. My slippers are soaked.

Tried again, same thing. Mess all over the kitchen, hot water all over the counter and down my apron.

I called my friend to tell her about it and figure out what the hell was going on.

She said “that’s weird. I’ve never had that problem. Are you using filtered water or spring water?”

I love having friends who reject diet culture. I love going out when everyone buys food and drinks that they enjoy. I love people who will pipe up and suggest we stop for a snack or grab a meal. I love ordering what I want and no one making comments other than how good it looks (and maybe asking to steal a bite off my plate). I love revelling in how full we are after a good meal and taking a break to appreciate how fortunate we are. I love sharing snack from our bags with one another. I love enjoying the pleasure of food and drinks and good company.

i have a youtube video about the use of jumpscares in horror games playing in the background while I work, and it reminded me of the single worst jumpscare i've ever experienced, which happened while I was playing a little game I like to call... Google Maps. (you play Google Maps by turning on street view, zooming in to somewhere that looks interesting, and clicking on any 360 photo views that people might have uploaded. i have spent many hours of my life playing Google Maps)

Anyway, spin this guy around to see something that legitimately made me jump so hard that I damn near threw my drink across the room

(more info under the cut if you're worried about what you'll see)

there's a fish very close to the camera

Shitty things about being isekaied #34; every time I use the restroom I automatically reach for my phone I left in my jacket pocket back on earth, and my hand goes exactly where I keep my knives on my belt, so I always walk out of the john with a fresh hand wound

My chronic illnesses are making me ill, chronically, once more. Everybody focus their psychic beams at that rat bastard god and together we'll make that pompous sleazebag regret giving us free will. And psychic beams.

Love watching The Terror because I get to see the characters facing relatable problems that I face in my everyday life like:

Joint pain

Shitty coworkers

Migraines

Useless boss

Being so so hungry

Random unexplained bruising in places I don't remember hitting??? Like what's all that about??? Should I see a doctor about this???

I dont think we talk enough about how AI makes people look so stupid. Like just today ive seen Ai shit for

Losing your car in a parking lot, they used an app to find it, it was right behind him. ( just use your key fob)

Some guy finding his girlfriends concealer on the bathroom counter, he literally asked his phone to identify it. (Just fucking read the bottle???)

Having your phone insert an address you're trying to text someone. ( just look it up and type it, also its none of my phone's business say outta my addresses and shit???)

Like.... i dunno... if you wanna let the little computer take over your life so you aren't even capable of picking up a bottle of make up on a countertop to find the right thing... like... that's embarrassing. But okay. Couldn't be me.

When i hear people say they're using Ai i kinda just assume they're at least a little bit stupid. Like, full offense actually. Write essays yourself. Make art yourself. For the love of god stop letting them shove Ai at you and just accepting it. It's making you look stupid. And in some cases making people actually dumber. Just... do it yourself!!!

(It's also getting people killed and hurting people mentally AND KILLING THE ENVIRONMENT and probably a million other shitty things but that's a wholllleeee other thing!!!)

Did a school visit today and asked a group of 8th graders if they could define the term "contemporary art" for me [for context, I work at a contemporary art museum], and one of them said "Is it art that's made with contempt?"

And unfortunately that's the funniest thing a student has ever said to me in 10 years of teaching
