just an interesting observation that idk anyone else who would have this specific crossover of interests. Also it makes having cassettes fun :)

messing up a batch of macarons also has a checklist of potential issues. humidity? temperature? almond flour not fine enough? didn't heat the syrup enough? whites not whipped enough? could be any one or more of these things.

every time i have a slight issue with a cassette playing I have a every changing checklist of what the issue could be. batteries dying? belts need replacing? motor dying? gotta clean the pinch rollers? it could be literally any one or more of these things.

honestly. like man I was in the trenches of tumblr's multiple eras of aphobia (including the current one.) nothing some washed up hack-author can say will ever effect me
