excuse my stressposting, I know I'm not in as bad a position as lots of people given everything else, but the minimum health insurance I need given my Issues is going to be almost $700/mo now and like. I am unemployed. Yanno? I can cover it while I still have money in my 401k but that's running out.

Reading a book and the paranoia of the MC at the very beginning is like. Please get therapy and xanax levels of paranoia. I can't imagine where how it will go up from here.

I know I complain about this like once a month, but *why* are new knitting patterns so fucking boring nowadays? Why is everyone making boringass plain tops and simple mittens? What happened to all the lace/cable designers? Where did they go and how do we get them back?

Everyone someone says Will Wheaton is so wholesome I think about how everyone has memory holed the time Chris Hardwick was accused of sexual assault and Wheaton was like “well he’s my friend and I believe women but I don’t believe this woman and anyway people change so he’s not a bad guy anymore.”

Yeah, that version of While My Guitar Gently Weeps absolutely rips, BUT...
The video version is 1000x better, because you get to watch the looks on their faces when Prince just absolutely clowns them all.

Rogue One. It wasn't actually that good if you're expecting things like "characters" and not "fairytale-level archetypes", & definitely not good enough to be worth the rocks fall ending.
WORLD WAR Z oh my god I just remembered how bad World War Z was holy shit. Why didn't they make a documentary???

Never mind movies you’ve watched multiple times, name a movie you’ve watched once and would never watch again.

also always deeply funny that every sci-fi video game from 1999-2014 was trying to be Aliens, and copied everything except the...working class woman protagonist
Everyone imitates Tolkien all the time except when it comes to the one way it would really matter: making the protagonist of your novel for children a short, fat, 50-year-old man who doesn't want to do anything.

This is all very complicated, but Jazz is the most American thing there ever was. A pure blend of influences from numerous parts of the world that occurred IN the US (which arose from oppression, disenfranchisement, poverty) over the course of decades. In a way, Jazz as an art form IS America.
I once got in an argument with a Norwegian coworker who said that America never created any real culture. I pointed out things like jazz and he was like “but really that’s African and Caribbean,” so finally I landed on ranch dressing, and I am proud to confirm that we got that goin for us

TIL, from reading replies to this post, that people actually put air in their tires when the tire light comes on during winter instead of just waiting for spring to fix it without having to actually do anything.
inb4 but your gas mileage!!

Remember folks, during winter every ten degree temperature drop lowers your tire’s PSI by 1 so it’s very important to go to the gas station and notice that the air thing doesn’t work and then do that five more times at five different gas stations

As someone who lives rural, already does not get USPS service, and has to use a post office in town? Fuck all of this so much. I'm financially privileged enough to handle any further disruptions to USPS stuff that could occur, but a lot of people aren't. It's not a business, it's a vital service.

Depending how you do the math, eating 500 people a year probably does less harm than the average billionaire
from a left wing standpoint, an ancient vampire living in their ancestral home and eating 500 peasants a year has more politically in common with you than a billionaire
