hi, a lot of you need a perspective reset
- the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years
- taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult
- at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)
- 'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65
- it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age
- it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.
- you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.
- young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!
- there are a million things to do in the world, and they don't vanish overnight because an imaginary number gets too big
Hey you know how I said I was going to make a workbook on the kind of bullshit you need to do when someone you love dies? I actually did that.
HERE IS THE VERSION WITH LOTS OF SWEARING AT THE USELESS, SHITTY SITUATION YOU’RE IN.
HERE IS THE VERSION WITH A FAIR AMOUNT OF BLACK HUMOR BUT NO CURSEWORDS.
Featuring Helpful Sections such as:
- Death Certificates – What you need, why you need them, and how to get them
- Prepare to spend a long and miserable time on the phone
- What the Everloving Fuck is Probate
- Some Simple Dos and Don’ts
- Shitty Mad Libs – Templates for writing Obituaries and Memorials
- How to plan a non-religious death party
- So you suddenly have to become some sort of hacker or some shit
This is an eighteen page book that you can print out, download, share, and give away; it is meant to be used to collect information about funeral planning and account management after a death OR you can use it BEFORE you die and give people information so they’re not stuck playing Nancy Fucking Drew while trying to keep seventeen cousins who crawled out of the woodwork from gutting each other in front of the fucking casket as they argue about who’s inheriting grandma’s favorite dentures.
It’s not exactly cheerful and it’s full of things that are probably going to feel really fucking raw if you’re processing a fresh death.
I’m sorry! I love you! Death is shitty! I’m trying to laugh about it a little and I hope you can laugh a little too because otherwise we’re all just going to cry together.
Good luck!
(in memory of my weirdo mother and her weirdo siblings who all died too fucking young and left me holding this flaming bag of dogshit)
Death sucks, hope you’re doing okay out there.
HEY DEATHLINGS, SPREAD THE WORD, PRACTICAL WORKBOOK JUST DROPPED.
Can confirm, this is quite practical. I read through it when making my will and need to go through it again to finish my process.
White people love to be like "I avoid Black people because I'm scared I'll accidentally be racist to them" and think it's 1) somehow not racist to do this 2) a normal thing to do and admit
There's a deeply compulsive urge in a lot of White people to flay themselves open in this bizarre, uncomfortable confessional way where they just NEED Black people to forgive them for, idk, being white?? And they will openly admit to the wildest shit with the most pleading expressions and it's insane to me
Every time a Black person is like "the reason for x behavior is racism" they will get swarms of people being like "I DO THIS, BUT PLEASE HEAR ME OUT" like I need you people to please get a grip, you are talking to a person and what you are saying is absurd
My family miraculously survived the Israeli bombing that occurred a few hours ago. Although we are being subjected to a policy of starvation and slow death by being denied food for 17 consecutive days, the occupation will not be satisfied with that and has returned to killing us.
We were almost a victim of today's bombing and miraculously survived. Please talk about us.

Hi! Your mindscape art of Stanley Pines is gorgeous. I'm aware this may sound insulting; how would you feel if I redrew it? I'd of course give credit for your amazing composition and concept itself!
uhhh i understand inspiration, but I’d rather not have you make an exact copy of my piece! i’m honored that you like my piece so much to consider this but yeahh ^^;
(i mean if you really want to replicate it for practicing/educational purposes go ahead but just don’t post it online)
hey, don’t cry. one half flour one half yogurt knead into dough and fry for easy flatbread and dip in balsamic vinegar, okay?
After three batches, my findings so far:
- I use full fat Greek yoghurt and self-rising flour
- Ratio by weight
- Add a pinch of salt
- Knead until no longer sticky, adding more flour if necessary
- Roll them with olive oil instead of flour and fry in an otherwise unoiled, preheated pan (medium heat) (trust in the lord; it will seem like it's going to stick to the pan at first but they'll unstick in about 15 seconds)
- Roll them thin but not too thin; mine take about 45 seconds on either side
- Serving with garlic butter is also a very good option
