I spent a week planning an outfit for a dinner party tonight yet here I am changing it into leggings and an oversized shirt an hour before

I love cuntry music

Dumb question for the void - do voice actors act out kissing noises or is that just clever foley?

I HATE IT HERE

It was certainly one of the drinks you can have lol not the best honestly I should’ve just made manhattan but was lazy and curious

I need to do better about coming here instead of that awful bird app, so popping by just to say I’ve discovered the delight that is vermouth and bourbon in root beer. Cheers

Excerpt from a public letter Roald Dahl wrote encouraging people to vaccinate their children. Olivia, my eldest daughter, caught measles when she was seven years old. As the illness took its usual course I can remember reading to her often in bed and not feeling particularly alarmed about it. Then one morning, when she was well on the road to recovery, I was sitting on her bed showing her how to fashion little animals out of coloured pipe-cleaners, and when it came to her turn to make one herself, I noticed that her fingers and her mind were not working together and she couldn’t do anything. “Are you feeling all right?” I asked her. “I feel all sleepy,” she said. In an hour, she was unconscious. In twelve hours she was dead. The measles had turned into a terrible thing called measles encephalitis and there was nothing the doctors could do to save her. That was twenty-four years ago in 1962, but even now, if a child with measles happens to develop the same deadly reaction from measles as Olivia did, there would still be nothing the doctors could do to help her. On the other hand, there is today something that parents can do to make sure that this sort of tragedy does not happen to a child of theirs. They can insist that their child is immunized against measles. I was unable to do that for Olivia in 1962 because in those days a reliable measles vaccine had not been discovered. Today a good and safe vaccine is available to every family and all you have to do is to ask your doctor to administer it.

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

Every day is starting to feel like the twist in The Good Place

Low key loved him in Anna Karenina, I think it’s such an underrated gem of a movie

Finally getting around to Adventure Time: Distant Lands and damn, Together again just ugh

You know that feeling when you accidentally bite down on your fork

Extremely jarring to be vibing out to a song and then suddenly hear it’s the clean version lol

PASTA SALAD TONIGHT BABYYYY

Obi-Wan dangling over the waters of Kamino with the text "wash your fucking water bottle including the nozzle!" surrounding him

you know who you are, you filthy, disgusting vermin

MANIFESTING GOOD THINGS FOR 2025

Oh wait til the end? Don’t mind if I don’t

I’m not sure what cosmic deity is out there or what I did to them to have this amazing reoccurring “joke” where everywhere I go, every job I’ve had, people are constantly calling me Melissa instead of Michelle. And I mean like moments after I tell them my name. Kind of hilarious tbh

Ebenezer Scrooge.

The Grinch.

Prince Zuko.

Iroh himself.

It’s never too late to change.

Well I’m currently in a soul-sucking finance job but I’ve been low key dying to work with animals my whole life, so I took a leap of faith and just got offered a position as a dog groomer trainee!! On paper it’s a wild move but it makes my heart happy

I THINK I MIGHT HAVE JUST GOTTEN MY DREAM JOB

Is it crazy to have Guy Fieri as a comfort person? When I get too stressed and can’t decompress I toss on GGG or DDD and world starts to feel nice again

Boop your cats for me plz

Might just ef around and ditch a stable, decent paying but soul-sucking job for a lower paying but fulfilling job I’ve wanted since 6th grade. TBD.

Was trying to come up with some silly quip here but I’m actually speechless on this one lmfao bro WHAT

THIS IS SO CUTE AHHH

I know I don’t have a lot of moots here but if you see this I would love to know roughly what you do for a living and if it’s something that you also ENJOY doing for a living. I want to find where I belong but not sure where to look/how to start

If this weren’t $1500 my cats would have an amazing Christmas

Is it true that foley is so niche it’s hard to make a career out of it?

Wait hold on this is taste 👌👌
