You glance over and you can see they’re pointing off to the side. Maybe about sixty or so feet in the water, there is something large, about ten feet below the surface, that is just swimming alongside. It’s causing a slight bow in the water surface and there is a bit of a trail behind it left in its wake.
you want my hot take for the evening? people who dont like complainers just havent been exposed to good complaining, and will never know if they themselves have an inborn talent for the art of kvetching
good complaining is some combination of a) funny, b) animated and theatrical, c) insightful re: human foibles, d) inquiry into social trends and norms.it must ALWAYS involve at least a small degree of self awareness, and is often used to build camaraderie and maintain relationships.
thinking about my optometrist who was treating my eye infection and said “if it hurts, you can rinse your eye with boiled water. look at me - look at me. i want you to understand that i mean water that has been boiled and has since cooled down. not boiling water. do you understand?” like i’m so grateful for this man ensuring that I wouldn’t destroy my eyes by pouring boiling water in it, because it is an adequate assessment of my intelligence
It’s like when making Hocus Pocus they told Bette Midler “this is camp just do whatever the fuck you want,” they told Sarah Jessica Parker that she could either drop acid or do a line of coke before every take but she had to do one, they told Kathy Najimy that her character is just an evil golden retriever, and then they told all the actors playing the kids that this was a very serious horror movie and if they didnt take all of this seriously they’d be in trouble
I knew going into this mbmbam that they only talked about war with grandpa. Yet somehow. I was still surprised when they really only talked about war with grandpa.
I am literally begging, BEGGING modern media to portray healthy relationships. enough cheating. enough infidelity. enough disrespect. show me people who love each other, proper communication, and a strong mental as well as physical connection. I want plots about people who are madly in love with each other and STAY madly in love with each other. please. I am losing my mind.
I’ve been in a great mood lately and keeping busy but now I’m sad bc I “came out” (reminded) my friends that my family is of a different local political party and that there is corruption across all parties and they refuted me before going silent so now I’m afraid they’re talking shit behind my back in their other group chat that I’m not a part of 🙃🙃🙃
