the thing about autism is it makes speech feel like ice skating in winter boots. autism will make your mouth feel like its barely gaining traction as you slip over enunciations and slur your words together and then youre going too fast by far and you crash into the wall

i dont even read posts that are more than 30 notes. its all just highly produced shlock made to be consumed by an audience, instead of real art. theres no heart. theres no rain. it stopped raining here 5 years ago and all the rivers have run dry and the postman (postwoman, because our town went woke) stopped showing up. i ran out of food and i dont like facebook. there are twelve matte black birds who caw ar the top of each hour and every day im getting closer to their last beautiful note. god help me
A guy in an entomology group I'm in got a confirmed brown recluse bite because he felt something tickle his neck and brushed it off, accidentally mashing the spider against his skin. This is how almost all recluse bites happen since they're very very unaggressive. Anyway the bite was just a small nasty spot that cleared up on its own, but his hands and feet swelled up really bad. Then when the swelling went back down, all his calluses were loose and just fell right off leaving his hands and feet like brand new???????????

the way i enjoy baseball isn't that unusual in the age of short attention spans i guess, but i rarely think about a game as a holistic nine innings. i love the individual moments, like wow! vientos got a grand slam, or awww! i get to hear "my girl" again as lindor comes up. even something like, great job! you struck out ohtani, i'm into that. it's why it never bothered me whether the mets won or lost. (there's probably someone out there calling it a "coping strategy").
all of my favourite parts about baseball that tie these moments together, like warm days at the ballpark or GKR on the call, are not available right now. the commentators on fox are, to be generous, jackasses, it's october in new york so it's getting cold, and the ballpark isn't the relaxed experience of the regular season. even my husband, the more traditional sports fan, gets visibly (albeit temporarily) upset when things go awry.
but there's still hope in the city. i talked to some strangers mets fans on the subway yesterday, something that really only happens when the vibes are good. and while the coverage depicts hoards of folks leaving citi field early, i see my husband, my friends and neighbours who are there staying until the very end, because that's what it means to show support.
the mets aren't dead yet and i will not quit on them. i didn't quit at those games i was at when they were 0 - 5, and i won't quit now.
(i will listen to the radio coverage again tonight though because i just can not with fox anymore, i think i'd hate baseball if that was how it was all the time.)

apartment building of leaves
my apartment building sucks its not even the right size inside and the staircases dont even go anywhere. my closet door just opens to a space between the walls & also locked trapdoor in my bedroom. sometimes i think i should move
Guys. Obviously I’m a completely unhinged Rebels fan. Maybe you already knew that. But from the first moment we saw, Adelphi (base?) I KNEW something was going to happen.
Want to know why?
A Y-Wing Bomber led us to the island. You know. Like the ones they liberated from Reklam in Steps into Shadow. (I know! Maybe not one of the same ones so many years later, but I just watched that ep so I was thinking about it.) Maybe that was the one Zeb flew in on!!
(ROCK MUSIC PLAYING) like in Mystery of Chopper Base
Definitely thought it was the Starbird at first, but an orange republic symbol?! I thought those were usually red/maroon…
Then - a helmet collection?!?
GARAZEB ORRELIOS?!?
Also, maybe this is totally wrong, but I was looking at all of the helmets and that one looked a lot like the one Kanan wore in The Occupation.
The Cowboy Man
And we got both a Sabacc line and THEN later on we even got the Puffer Pig line, both from Idiot’s Array.
Maybe some of these are a stretch, but either way that was a GREAT episode for us.
