Went to bed on the verge of an anxiety (maybe panic?) Attack and woke up feeling the same. Super stoked to be working 10 hours like this today. Guarantee one criticism will make me cry and don't even try to build me up. The dam is cracked and I'm unsteady...
So thats how I've been. Hope everyone is doing ok!!
So I know I've been absent lately, but thank God I've been working lately. I'm down to part time at work, but work received a government grant so I'm still getting paid for full time work.
Wisconsin is starting rumors that we might open around the 16th. I know everyone is going stir crazy and wants this to be over so bad, but this virus is still running out of control. It's not safe yet, and I need people to understand that! My best friend has been hit hardest in terms of people around her. 2 of her friends (not related) each lost 2 family members from this. My best friend JUST had a friend wake up after being incubated and in a coma for about a week. Her muscles atrophied and even though she is ok, is now learning to walk again. My sister keeps getting news that coworkers are testing positive for corvid-19. At any moment, I'm afraid I'm going to get news that my sister has it. She is terrified!!!
So yes, I get it. You want to get your nails done and get your hair fixed and you want to go out to bars again, but with new cases STILL coming out, it's not safe for you or me or anyone else!
At the dentist last week (I had an emergency tooth removal cause it abscessed) the lady I had was telling me they have had to reuse their N95 masks and ration them because even THEY have been short handed.
ITS NOT FUCKING SAFE YET AND EVEN THOUGH YOU DONT LIKE TO HEAR THAT, ITS THE FUCKING TRUTH! STAY HOME! BE SAFE! MAKE SAFE CHOICES! CAUSE IM NOT GOING TO RISK MY FAMILY OR MYSELF BECAUSE YOU WANT TO EAT AT FUCKING RED LOBSTER AGAIN AND DRINK A LAME ASS PISS BEER!!
the twitter thread the artist created after this was one of the best situations i have ever seen in my whole life:
Somebody give this ignoramus a piece of actual shark skin and tell him to rub his face with it, let him find out just how “smooth” sharks really are.
Somebody did. I use it as a pillowcase because it’s so smooth.
But buddy.
Shark skin feels exactly like sandpaper. It is made up of tiny teeth-like structures called placoid scales, also known as dermal denticles. These scales point towards the tail and help to reduce friction from surrounding water when the shark swims. … In the opposite direction, it feels very rough like sandpaper.
Buddy. It’s smooth. The link you sent me led to a website that described how smooth they are. I dunno, maybe you don’t know how to read?
this post is transcendent
You’re thinking of dolphins. Dolphins are the ones with smooth skin that feels like a rubber beach ball.

No, I’m thinking of sharks.

okay but the sheer fucking glee on the face of the person taking this photo is the best part about this
Hamlet adaptation where Hamlet is a vlogger and all his soliloquies are breakdowns he uploads to YouTube
… I am unironically here for this
this is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my life
This is - legitimately - my favourite delivery of Shakespeare I have EVER seen (and I have seen some good-ass productions yo, in the Globe Theatre itself even). Like seriously, even though the words are unchanged, he’s stripped away ALL of the archaic pretense and assumed grandeur of ~presenting the bard~ that makes even the most wildly talented of actors and innovative of productions inherently inaccessible to a modern audience. Like, they’re still great, they can still communicate the message and (some) of the nuance, but they’re still always a step removed from being identifiable to any viewer’s lived experience. They’re still always reciting 15th century poetry. But this guy? This guy is like, screw iambic pentameter, to hell with being precious about the material, HOW WOULD AN ACTUAL PERSON SAY THIS SHIT?
Like this. And it’s beautiful. It’s beautiful to hear a soliloquy I loved so much already, and have it come to life in a way it never, ever, did before. I feel like I grasp his motivations, his twists and turns, no longer on an academic level but on a visceral, instinctive one. Because he’s presenting his mental and emotional journey in a way that speaks honestly, like a real person.
So yeah, this shit post? I love it. Deeply and sincerely.
Here’s the link, yall

I absolutely wasn’t ready for that punch line and now I’m howling
why is this picture literally a summation of capitalism
The weirdest guy I ever met in a church was this boy who referred to “Buzz Aldrin and his husband” going to the moon. I was completely baffled, and when I asked if he’d misspoken, he got really angry and accused me of being deliberately ignorant of the facts. It turned out that he was somehow comvinced that Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong were married. It took five Wikipedia articles to convince him otherwise.
The moon landing was fake: tired, passé, heard it before
The moon landing was an elaborate marriage proposal: fresh! sexy! I’m going to be thinking about this for months!
Romcom where two dudes in the 1960s fall in love and come up with an elaborate plan to become astronauts to get married in space because gay marriage is illegal everywhere but it can’t be illegal on the moon
Might make things a little awkward for Mike Collins.
He was the officiator
This is an excellent take. He officiated in orbit, and the landing was their Honey Moon.

How can people say Kylo Ren is the hottest guy in the new trilogy when Finn and Poe are like right there?
Racism
Or different tastes? 🤔
A busker plays music for a blind autistic girl sitting in a wheelchair. She’s being allowed to stim (flapping and rubbing her shirt) and respond to the music her own natural way. The busker places her hand on the guitar to let her see what is creating the music, and she smiles as he sings to her. They made a connection. That is autism acceptance. Take note. Many autistic people will open up to you like a flower if you gently connect with them in ways that work for them instead of forcing them to connect with you in ways that only work for you. I hope that sweet kid grows up to be a musician or artist! :)
Daddy’s at the food store, Mummy’s out of town,
She’s working at the hospital since Rhona came to town,
Hide away, hide away, Miss Rhona’s come to town,
Hide away, hide away, she’s come to take us down.
Miss Rona’s at the doorstep, I’ll keep 6 feet away,
But Grandma needs the paper, I’ll take her some today,
Hide away, hide away, Miss Rhona’s come to stay,
Hide away, hide away, I’ll keep 6 feet away.
But Grandma needs the paper, I’ll take her some today,
And here’s a note from Rhona, she wanted me to say,
Hide away, hide away, keep 6 feet away,
Hide away, hide away, she’s brought us down today.
Who else is feeling morbid today?
