I’m watching Splash (1984) which is a romcom about a guy who falls in love with a mermaid, and when she chooses a human name she chooses Madison and guy says “that’s not a real name, but alright” which seems to imply that Madison was not a name until at least the 80’s and all girls named Madison are actually named after the mermaid. thought you should know

update: apparently my grandpa and I both ordered the general tso's chicken at medium heat... wtf
Today I went with my dad to a Chinese restaurant. Good food, I've been there before, it's probably the only Chinese restaurant I've been to tbh. My dad has to take a call before we get in, and I'm following him because I don't know what to do. He tells me to go get a table. I go inside and stand there awkwardly, mentally noting how many old people are there. Like sea of gray in this tiny restaurant. I get a table after a few minutes, sit down by myself, no biggie. My dad comes in and business happens as usual.
When we're done with our food, we get the fortune cookies and my dad got one that correlates to the one he got last time, which was kinda funny. Anyway, nothing out of the ordinary.
The server proceeds to tell us that my grandparents paid for our meals. I have one grandparent (he has a wife) who was in the hospital yesterday. My dad and I are both confused. A few questions later and lo and behold, it was, in-fact, my actual grandpa who was celebrating his birthday. In a completely different county. NOT EVEN 24 HOURS AFTER GETTING RELEASED FROM THE HOSPITAL. WHAT. GRANDPA.
what a weird coincidence.

YOU hate JK Rowling!
why knowing the unseen worked (and why i'm afraid mafu6 won't)
disclaimer: ena's father did traumatize her and his actions can't be justified. but the event doesn't try to justify them or act like he's had a complete change of heart since then
the fundamental nature of the abuse was different, so reconciliation is cathartic and beneficial for ena but not for mafuyu
ena's dad put her down, so what she needs is to be lifted up. mafuyu's mom wanted to control who she was, so what she needs is to break free (which she's already done)
the point of adding depth to shinei is making ena realize she's not talentless like she thought, that she's worthy of being an artist. what would be the point for mafuyu of having her mom suddenly show remorse?
ena's dad made her feel worthless because her self-worth was tied to her art. so to realize that she's actually been the most precious thing to him ever since she was born is rewarding for her. it's not about redeeming him
mafumom could say all kinds of nice things to her daughter in the next event and it wouldn't mean anything. she already calls her a "good girl" and stuff all the time. she's manipulative
shinei is not manipulative. he couldn't be even if he tried because the man is emotionally incompetent
that's why it's only through his art that he's able to convey his true feelings to his daughter, which is so fitting since art is the thing they share, or at least should share
mafumom has already had an arc, which was like the opposite of a redemption arc. mafuyu went from thinking of her as a good mom to realizing she was destroying her. to redeem her now would just be going backwards
by contrast, knowing the unseen is the first time we're really delving into shinei's character, and what we learn about him doesn't contradict anything from before
rephrased: mafuyu thought her mom truly loved her, but it turns out she only loved the idealized daughter in her head. ena thought her dad didn't care about her, but it turns out he loved her from the start
so yeah
bro who was gonnna tell me that there was a drst video game?????
screw my calc homework im doing this now.
worst part of getting into the traditional folk music scene is that you will hear a song in the wild and fall in love with it, and when you try to find it online you discover that there are 900 different cover versions and the only non-terrible one is a recording of a church hall concert filmed in 2002 on someone's nokia
googling shit like "why do i feel bad after hanging out with my friends" and all of the answers are either "you need better friends" (i don't; my friends are wonderful) or "your social battery is drained, you need to rest and regain your energy levels" (i don't; i've got tons of energy, it's just manifesting as over-the-top neurotic mania). why is this even happening. it's like some stupid toll i have to pay as a punishment for enjoying myself too much

Liking character is fun until you think about them and you just have to stare at nothing for a few minutes because of how tragic
And mauybe you are almost crying but you are having fun
when a literal thinker gives instructions and is surprised when his student takes it as literally as possible 😂
nothing is going to beat gen doing insane mathematics and calculating senku's birthday to surprise him with an observatory... but let's talk about how senku had an entire thought process to surprise gen with his homemade cola too!
senku's guide on how to surprise a mentalist:
1) drop some hints that a certain mentalist's favourite cola is going to be made but don't be an idiot who makes it too obvious
2) leave the mentalist alone to find the carbonated water and raise his stupid hopes up
3) tease him further for getting them up in the first place, taking a page out of his (literal trashy) book...
4) predict his decision on staying behind and leave the last subtle hint that will push him to the right direction
5) ... and if you end up with a satisfied mentalist who will never leave your side, well, don't say you weren't warned!
Having a crush while being aro-ace is soooo funny because I'm literally just like. I wanna go to the grocery store with you
Sometimes it's ok to be wrong and irrational about things for as long as you are willing to aknowledge that the thing you think is fucking stupid. I have an irrational pet peeve about people who are super slow eaters. Like it just irrationally annoys me when you're having a meal with someone and they're like num num num num num uwu like they've got a gerbil-sized mouth in a human-sized body and can only take bites the size of a fingernail clipping.
It's like walking behind a slow walker but you can't like climb over their shoulder or anything. You just have to sit there and wait and watch them swallow one atom at a time, consuming one single sandwich at the same speed as rust eating an abandoned tractor. Watching their meal get cold before they're halfway through, and watching it start growing mould in the corners because they can't finish their food before something faster than them starts eating it.
I know people don't do that on purpose and it's entirely irrational of me to be frustrated about it, but
aaaaaaaaargh.
Today's hot topic: Senku once got arrested by the police due to one of his experiments as a 9 year old. He was trying to launch his rocket. Byakuya Ishigami found it hilarious and was secretly proud of his son's genius.
Dr Xeno doesn't know about this yet.
