These fragments I have shored against my ruins. She/her, ever so much more than twenty. my original posts are mostly tagged as "psir" ("oh, that stands for Probably Someone's Insane Ramblings"). please ask if you need me to tag anything!

I was waiting for my betrothed to finish up in the bathroom. I was debating whether to sit my bed up in a comfier position or just hunch over my kindle while I waited. And then the words, “The comforts of this world are not finite,” came into my head.

I have no idea what kind of extra dimensional being is dropping that shit into my brain but I sat the bed up to read in comfort and I’m gonna try to live more in the realm of: if I can be comfortable, I should be.

Do y’all not remember the arm burn? The hand squeezes to rattle your bones? The ritualistic stories where you beat up on each other’s arms until their red? (Look it’s roses!) all the weird little pain rituals we did to each other as kids?

anytime I consume thc I get these like. cloth flashbacks. very strong sense memories of various fabrics from my very early childhood. my blankie, the stuffed calico hot air balloon mobile over my crib, dolls' dresses, my little footie pajamas, the ribbons my mom tied to my carseat for me to play with. this is invariable and I do not know what to make of it. I haven't had any weed in like three years and then yesterday I had a gummy and ninety minutes later was like oh yeah :) the flowered apron on the little toy bunny in my easter basket :) it was all crisp and light and had two little pink roses and three little sprays of lavender on it :)

Actually I started with Naked Jon Hamm. But otherwise, yeah, more or less accurate.

not to brag but my new general practitioner describes me as both "grossly normal" and "oriented x 3"

Wild strawberries are a Dionysian orgy of sweet flavorful delight compared with the insipid, hellish store bought strawberries.

Most of my wild strawberry plants' flowers failed to pollinate for some strange reason (I guess there's not very many strawberry plants in the surrounding area?) but the few strawberries I did get tasted like a strawberry starburst but tangier and better

@ace-of-bass Ah...you probably have encountered the plant known as Mock Strawberry

You can tell it because the flowers are yellow and the berries point upwards, whereas with "real" strawberries the berries grow downwards and the flowers are white

Contrary to common belief, the mock strawberries are not poisonous, they just taste like water.

So I've been working on making sure all my course videos are captioned for accessibility

And I wanted to go in and hand add captions to the video for reading blood pressure to indicate when the korotkoff sounds occur

Except to edit captions the system first makes me auto-generate captions

And I was expecting either something blank, or complete nonsense where the sounds occurred

But I was *not* prepared to open it up and see the heart noises translated like this:

oh no

IT HAPPENED AGAIN

Accurate representation of me trying to get a good grade in my blood pressure test

Only tangentially related but I'm trying out the Nekocaps browser extension for adding subs to other peoples' videos and it seems to work pretty well so far.

“everyone is going to hate it” someone will love it. someone will reach out to you and tell you it changed their life. someone will hold it close and treasure it forever in a way you can’t even understand. keep going
