I have discovered the reason I am the epitome of "I will not eat new foods ever" is because my parents make sure whenever they make a dish I've never had before, that there is something in there I can't stomach to "teach me to eat it"
I'm autistic lmao. It's been almost 19 years now, you're not gonna magically cure me from picky eater-ness by still forcing me stay at the table until I finish my plate of something that contains taugé, or whatever that's called in English.
Seriously I get it's annoying when you cook and someone doesn't like it but like. It's a) not your fault, and if you're the parent/caretaker of this person it's b) your responsibility to not make your kid dread eating anything other than bread and rice cakes because you keep pressuring them to eat "normal food"
I don't care how many times I talk about it, but I love how willing jews are to help. I was called to read a part of the readings from this week (there was no minyan so the scroll wasn't taken out 😭) and my tanakh is totally different from what the other members use, so I was totally lost. One of the ladies walked across the room where I was in the men's section to try and help me, and then the rabbi gave me his and sat next to me so I could read. Like it was a team effort to get me to be able to read, and it was... almost an instinctual thing - it happened so quickly that I was helped.
I want to be like that. I felt so afraid when I was called to read because of how lost I was, but... there was nothing to have been scared of.
They've been on my mine's a lot recently (even though I've shipped them since 2018/19) but uhh, please?:3
I just need more content of them
Aah, hello! I hope you'll forgive how long it's been since you requested this, but I finally got around to it! :D
I love these dudes so so much! I don't ship them as often anymore but they were one of my faves a few years back and I had SUCH a good time having a reason to doodle them! <3
I don't have enough room for this in oimw but it's important to me that you know that when Joyce finds out that Steve is a Grimm it's in the middle of a v stressful situation so in her head that becomes Part of the Problem and she's trying to figure everything out and rambling out loud to Hopper about how fucked they all are
and eventually it becomes how worried she is about steve not for steve but about steve because she's always seen him as this angry kid and now he's got this power and he doesn't even have his parents to keep him in check and maybe it would be better if they were here even though steve seems kinda afraid of that but maybe that would be a good thing in the long run...
and she doesn't mean anything by it. steve isn't a bad person. probably. he's just an angry kid. the kind she used to be afraid of jonathan becoming. the kind of kid lonnie was. the kind that she's sure she has no ability to handle.
and hopper just kinda looks up from his cup of customary "we're all so fucked" tea and is just like hey. don't talk about my kid like that.
and joyce blinks and well. hop was kind of an angry kid too wasn't he. and moves on to the next problem.
i would love to enjoy everything that stardew valley has to offer but unfortunately i approach this game the same way i approach real life: avoid all social interaction and tend to my garden in belligerent silence
