Dark Orb - Tumblr Posts
Please reblog! And in the tags put where you’re from, I’m curious how this differs based on location :)
Also I was going to add “driving in bad weather” but I left it out because that makes everything more stressful for just about everyone!
to leave the warmest bed i've ever known but it's just me struggling to get up every morning
The body is a curse, but it is necessary to possess a body to play video games. This is the condition called “samsara”
just realized that part of why asmr comment sections tend to be so open, vulnerable, and wholesome is because most of the commenters have insomnia as they’re typing (or had insomnia and came back after sleeping) and are so happy to get relief for it
so tired i started searching things and randomly liking strangers’ posts, which i’m pretty sure is a violation of the tumblr geneva conventions, so

Imagine if you met someone who can't eat watermelon. Not that they're allergic or unable somehow, but they just haven't figured out how to do that. So you're like "what the hell do you mean? it works just like eating anything else, you open your mouth, sink your teeth in, take a bite and chew. If you can bite, chew and swallow, you should be able to eat a watermelon."
And they agree that yes, they do know how to eat, in theory. The problem is the watermelon. Surely, if they figured out where to start, they'd figure out how to do it, but they have no clue how to get started with it.
This goes back and forth. No, it's not an emotional issue, they're not afraid of the watermelon. They can eat any other fruit, other sweet things, and other watery things ("it's watery?" they ask you). Is it the colour? Do they have a problem eating things that are green on the outside and red on the inside?
"It's red on the inside?"
Wait, they've never seen the inside? At this point you have to ask them how, exactly, they eat the watermelon. So to demonstrate, they take a whole, round, uncut watermelon, and try to bite straight into it. Even if they could bite through the crust, there's no way to get human jaws around it.
"Oh, you're supposed to cut it first. You cut the crust open and only chew through the insides."
And they had no idea. All their life this person has had no idea how to eat a watermelon, despite of being told again and again and again that it's easy, it's ridiculous to struggle with something so simple, there's no way that someone just can't eat a watermelon, how can you even mange to be bad at something as fucking simple as eating watermelon.
If someone can't do something after being repeatedly told to "just do it", there might be some key component missing that one side has no idea about, and the other side assumed was so obvious it goes without mention.
still thinking about how evelyn prime is the chosen one because she's so bad at everything

Reblog to bonk your mutuals on the head every time they start thinking negatively about themselves
me personally? i die every night and come back wrong every morning but no one notices because i've been doing that for a long time so it's just kinda par for the course
being a boring uncool insane mutual is a hard job but someone's got to do it
…
i would rather get poked multiple times until the vampire gets it right than have them wiggle the needle around even once. the wiggling hurts so much more. like, i’m icing my arm because that’s how much it hurts 😖
tumblr was down for like 20 minutes on my end, and i was starting to get nervous. seeing time stamps of posts made during that time makes me less nervous/slightly envious
there are at least 2 wasps in my house and i am very skert about it
update: it's the wasps' house now...
every day they come, in pairs and sometimes more. there's gotta be a nest somewhere, but fuck if we know. we're just hoping it gets cold soon so they die off
