This is just a regular reminder that if you're at the gas station and the tv thing is screaming at you, the second button from the top on the right side is usually a mute button.

In case anyone was wondering, the most precise scientific distinction between the Toyota RAV-4 and the Toyota Highlander is that the Highlander has the ability to transport a 12' Home Depot Skelly in its box while the RAV requires unboxing pre-transport. Toyota Highlander: There Can Only Be One

One thing that is great about taking Adderall is that ADHD makes it super hard to do things every X amount of time but Adderall is a controlled substance so I have to get a new prescription literally every month but I always forget until I run out.

My niece who is almost two has not had a lot of water- related experiences, but a couple weeks ago her class at school had a 'water day' where they played in a hose for ~15 minutes. She has talked about 'wa da day' ever since. Today she learned about spending all afternoon in the pool. 😎👌

I talk a big game about not worrying about all the things I might've done if I'd had Adderall when I was young, but I would pay good money to get a second chance at all the knowledge I missed in college.

I know I haven't posted recently but my new hobby of wood carving has been going very well! It's really nice for quieting my brain and venting my anger, and I think the fact that I now get lightly roasted by ER staff while they do my stitches shows we're forming a real bond. 🥰

The problem with being blunt is not the bluntness, it's that passive-aggressive people assume you're being passive-aggressive and thus 100x more rude that you're actually being.

Something I believe very strongly is that it's extremely important for personal mental health and overall community integration to be upfront about things when you held a strong opinion and then later it changed. This is called 'growth'! Anyways I actually really liked that one new movie, The Boat

My hot take is that I like the new one, but after watching the original, it (the original) is obviously the better Road House, so I’ve just stopped thinking of the new one as a remake and instead it’s its own unrelated movie. @catie.bsky.social and I have renamed it The Boat.

Earlier I was watching a review of different carving knives and the guy was talking about how he liked the more rounded handle of one versus the other. I get that it's like, a review, but also if you are holding two carving knives, changing the shape of one's handle seems hella doable.

I spent a lot of my life in torment wondering how I could be so smart but also so stupid, always trying to make myself physically and metaphorically smaller. Now I know that I have to be this size to keep them separate. See, it's like a two part epoxy...

Something I love about One Piece is that it's a show about ten very intelligent people who are also deeply stupid. Finally the representation I needed. 🥰

Deep within my heart is my most secret, special vault of the absolute best things people have ever said to describe me. Not the nicest things, nor the most complimentary, but the sort of things people say in your annual peer feedback when they absolutely hate you but can't fault your work.

Spend your Sunday with your loved ones if you want, I'll be over here coming up with galaxy brain theories about how One Piece takes place on a post-Letonian Arrakis. Will of D? More like will of AtreiDes, am I right?
