i went to a tiny counterserve diner once and accidentally poured sugar instead of salt all over my hashbrowns and was eating them sadly anyways. the waitress took them away and started making me another one and I tried to protest, but she just snorted and said "we're not catholic here". now every time i'm doing something painful out of obligation i think about how that is not repenting, this body is not a catholic establishment, there is no nobility in suffering.
since the cowboy and the samurai were both dying out in the 1800s i want an action adventure historically wildly inaccurate comic about the last cowboy and the last samurai teaming up BUT one of them is gay and the other doesn’t understand what being gay is and there are multiple comedic mishaps resulting from this
can anyone remember that post about how children write the best poems & it had an article attached showing the differences between little kids' poetry & preteens?? im desperate to find it again
when i was 9 years old i got my first job washing pitchers and citrus squeezers at a small time juice shop franchise that some big city kid spun out of a series of Lemonade Stand Pop Up events he did across the lower east side of Las Vegas. turns out if your boss is younger than you then child labour laws dont apply in the state of nevada so this 8 year old from Reno was running dozens of these juice shops across the state run entirely on 9 - 14 year old drop outs like myself who said fuck school im gonna make it on my way the only lessons i ever needed come from the mean streets of the city and i the only teacher i need is my two fists and a pay check and the school bus would be the city bus.
IF THE ROUTINE NO LONGER SERVES, YOU MUST ALTER THE PATTERN, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?? YOUR LIFE STARTS WITH YOU
Learnt a good tip from my therapist that has helped me start work.
If you are struggling to start any work, set up your work space and put on media enjoy. This can be YouTube, a film, a podcast, anything.
Try and make as many notes as you can during the media. It may not be perfect work, but it is something to slowly get yourself into the mood to study. Sometimes you just don't want to work but you can get the ball rolling by using something you enjoy as a catalyst.
Even if your notes are pure garbage, that is okie because it still means you started work. Keep reducing how much media you are using till you are getting into the flow of everything.
This has helped me more times than I can count!
This quote is from the section of the October 30 entry where Van Helsing says he will go with Mina to Dracula’s castle. Full context below:
Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.
