As A Percussionist, This Scratches My Brain

"What is it that the child has to teach?

The child naively believes that everything should be fair and everyone should be honest, that only good should prevail, that everybody should have what they want and there should be no pain or sadness. The child believes the world should be perfect and is outraged to discover it is not.

And the child is right."

— Rabbi Tzvi Freeman

i made these last night with a gigantic headache and no memory of anything happening and I don't know how to feel about them

some of these are so out of character I CAN'T

I am riveted by the implication taste is determined by SHAPE (of a molecule), is that really how that works?? What is the shape of bitter? A decahedron? What about the other tastes??? Sweet has to be like, a hexagon, right?

People suck, alright. It's true, and the world sucks because of people and history. I hate the society we live in so often. But I worked at a summer camp where one kid knew I was always tired so he'd make other kids back off when they were being too much, I had a coworker who made me smile because of how he laughed at my jokes, I had a stranger compliment my glasses and tell me that it matched the energy I gave off from our short interaction, a guy at dutch bros gave me a free drink just because I had a conversation with him and was only there to get a drink for my friend. Life isn't so bad, people are not so bad. We all want to live and enjoy the time we have in our impossible existence, and for the most part, we want that for others too. I wish I could say how much I love and appreciate the kindness of people who barely know each other, but I don't know if I could ever say enough

Every girl has had the experience where a creepy guy asks for our number and we don’t want to give it to him, but we also don’t want to get gutted in a back alley. “Give him a fake number!” I hear you call, okay and then he says “okay let me call you real quick!” Because they are learning. “Give them your number and then block them!” Okay and then they can plug it into something like Spokeo, pay $10 and know everything about you. So what do you do?

First pick a fake name, I use Jessica, then download the Google Voice app, hook it up to your email, pick a number, and set up a fake greeting with your fake name. You can set it to ring your actual phone like a normal call or text but they don’t have real info on you.

Go forth and don’t get murdered, ladies!

Me: *gets something from Starbucks for my gf that I think she'll like but am not sure of and surprises her with it*

Her: *likes it*

Me: yay! I did a good job in boyfriend. This is something both possible to achieve, and perfectly normal to want

When we say "be gay, do crime," I don't think that meant against each other
