Help girl my snacks are fucking gross!

so one time i got bit by a brown recluse which is one of the only types of spider in my area that's actually dangerous and at first i didn't know what had happened to me, only that it was nasty. the swelling wasn't going down and the wound started to get ugly. i don't want to like get into the details because that's gross but it got to the point 2 weeks later that i was worried enough to go to the doctor, which i hate doing.

i am not afraid of spiders but other people are so i'd been covering it with this big ole square bandage (i needed more landscape coverage than a simple bandaid) and sat in the university medical waiting room, kicking my heels and playing BOTW. the nurse who admitted me was like, oh, we have got to get Tom to cover this one. she wrote spider bite under my ticket.

i waited in the near-empty building for like an hour and then nurse tom shows up in spiderman scrubs, out of breath. "sorry," he says, "i saw - your slip - and I had," he heaves in a breath, "to run home and. get. these scrubs. i literally. ran. felt like a job. for. spiderman."

i laugh. he puts his hands on his knees, thumbs-ups at me. fishes a pamphlet out from under his clipboard that basically says spiders can be scary but you don't need to be scared, there's very few dangerous spiders in new england. "honestly," he wheezes, "we probably don't need to get you into an exam room. just..." he waves his hand at the pamphlet, "read that."

i look down at my arm. then back at him in his scrubs. and then down at my arm. i like that he made an effort to make a joke, but now it does not feel like a good joke, because they are mistaking my calm for a lack of injury. "can i. like. at least show you the bite?"

he gives me kind of a weird look, which is fair, but then says. "if. i mean, if you have to."

i peel the bandage off. his face goes green.

"oh," he says.

"yeah, man."

"a... spider bit you?" his voice is high and tight and trembling. he backs up a few steps.

"i think a brown recluse," i offer. "i know it's nasty, sorry."

"excuse me for a moment." he looks over to the administering nurse on the other side of the small room. "i need to find someone else to take care of you."

the administering nurse smiles over to us with a degree of pleasure that is almost salivating. for a moment, like a window opening, i am briefly aware of what must be a psychic message floating amongst the in-between. her jaguar teeth all say this is like a party for me and i know exactly what i'm doing.

"oh no, tom," she says, grinning. "i gave her to you specifically."

Chiron: Welcome to Camp Half-Blood! Home to demigods of—

Me: Yeah yeah, which demigods can see the shrimp colors?

Chiron: Excuse me?

Me: You heard me. Who’s got the shrimp colors?

Chiron: Well, ah…Iris is the goddess of the rainbow, and Poseidon is god of the sea, but I don’t think—

Me: Give me the shrimp colors, horse man.

funniest thing about porter robinson is that despite being a highly celebrated musician, nominated for a grammy and having a net worth probably in the millions, his ass is still not paying for youtube premium

I’m tired at this point of Alicent and especially HELAENA get ridiculed as mothers and having their emotions and actions picked apart meanwhile aegon spends a couple of hours been a dad and suddenly he’s father of the year

Made this strawberry cornmeal cake for a friend’s birthday! A couple things I’d do differently (a smidge less lemon juice to macerate the berries, and I would bring honey for ppl to drizzle on top) but overall I think it was a success :)

Recipe is from Claire Saffitz’s dessert person!

Steve gets a Party themed tattoo, constellations of all the kid’s zodiac signs, and of all people it’s Mike Wheeler who gets overwhelmingly emotional about it and ends up sobbing into Steve’s chest for a full hour.

I think Jujutsu Kaisen sets itself apart from the other shonen anime/manga. Yuji's not like any other shonen protagonists. Sure, he's strong, runs around, and kicks ass, but Yuji and the other male characters are not just strong. I love how they show a wide range of emotions, from childlike excitement to their innermost feelings of frustrations and vulnerability (e.g., Nanami lamenting on his dream retirement that he never got to live.) And I also love how the female characters aren't sexualized and one dimensional.

But I think what I reeeeaaaally love about the series is how it shows brokenness. The world is broken, the system is broken, the humans and sorcerers are broken, and relationships are broken. But despite all that there's still love. The characters still have love for each other. In the Shibuya Incident, everyone's not fighting for themselves, they fight to keep everyone safe. All of them put others before them, even to the point of death. And we don't do that anymore, we don't love anyone to the point of self-sacrifice.

I remember after Suguru committed mass murder, Satoru couldn't kill him. Satoru couldn't bring himself to kill the only friend he had. He may hate Suguru, but under his hatred lies the love he always had for his friend. And he couldn't and probably never will kill Suguru.
