I'm trying to prove something.
Tucker: We're married.
Danny: What?
Tucker: If anyone asks you and I are married. We've been married for two years. Not platonic roommates. Understand?
Danny: I'm always down for marriage fraud, but can I ask why?
Tucker: *Sigh* We had a big company meeting today with every level employee at the event center the Wayne rent out. Tammy from accounts was assigned to my table-
Danny: Your mortal enemy.
Tucker: Exactly. So she started giving me grief in the middle of our team exercise project. The other four random employees are looking at me all wide eye and I'm getting tired so I say "Is it because I'm gay Tammy?" To shut her up. But at that time, Timothy Drake Wayne was walking behind me and heard me say it. He jumped in to ask what was going on, and I hate Tammy for being so annoying, but I am not about to accuse her of discrimination for no reason. So I said "Oh it was just a joke. Like on the internet." And then when Mr.Drake-Wayne face didn't relax, I blurted out."My husband thinks my jokes are dumb too"
Danny: Tucker....that's not good
Tucker: I know! I started panicking!
Danny: You ramble when you panic.
Tucker: I do, and I did. Before I realized it, I told Mr. Drake-Wayne, this whole made up childhood friends to lover romance between you and I. It was so good he told me to invite you to the office. So we're married. Please go along with it. If I can get Mr. Drake-Wayne's support I can rise in the company so fast.
Danny: Promotions are 50% networking. Alright, sure, what's the worst that can happen?
Five months later
Steph: What's the big emergency?
Tim sobbing:. I'm in love with the husband of one of my employees.
Steph: Tim....that's not good
Contextless quotes from me/my friends with no indication of who said what:
"Look away for .5 seconds and you have a smush child"
"Is cruise control on? Oh wait, we're going down a hill"
"Same as when I broke you and them with all those subs I take?"
"I’m warm, i’m tall, i can build furniture, i don’t stream."
"Most of my vehicle mishaps happen bc I cannot see so that’s a plus at least XD"
I did not ask if they wanted their quotes on tumblr
For no reason at all, I'd like to bring your attention to Oconomowoc, Wisconsin for having a fun name
Tumblr is awesome because you can trial run invisibility like superpowers are real
I've always had chronic fatigue. I remember being twelve, and an adult mentioned how I couldn't possibly know how tired they felt because adulthood brought levels of exhaustion I couldn't imagine. I thought about that for days in fear, because I couldn't remember the last time I didn't feel tired.
Eventually I came to terms with the fact that I was just tired, and I couldn't do as many things as everyone else. People called me lazy, and I knew that wasn't true, but there's only so many times you can say "I'm tired" before people think it's an excuse. I don't blame them. When a teenager does 20 hours of extracurriculars every week and only says "I'm too tired" when you ask them to do the dishes, it's natural to think it's an excuse. At some point, I started to think the same thing.
It didn't matter that I could barely sit up. It was probably all in my head, and if I really wanted to, I could do it.
When I learned the name for it, chronic fatigue, I thought wow, people that have that must be miserable, because I am always tired and I cannot imagine what it would feel like if it were worse.
Spoiler alert, if you've been tired for a decade, it's probably chronic fatigue.
Once I figured that out though, I thought of my energy as the same as everyone else's, just smaller in quantity. And that might be true for some people, but I've figured out recently that it absolutely isn't true for me.
I used to be like wow I have so much energy today I can do this whole list for sure! And then I'd do the dishes and have to lay down for 2 hours. Then I'd think I must gave misjudged that, I didn't have as much energy as I thought.
But the thing is - I did have enough energy for more tasks, I just didn't go about them properly.
With chronic fatigue, your maximum energy is obviously much smaller than the average person's. Doing the dishes for you might use up the same percentage of energy that it takes to do all the daily chores for someone else.
If someone without chronic fatigue was to do all the daily chores, they would take breaks. Because otherwise, they're sprinting a marathon for no reason and it would take way more energy than necessary. We have to do the same.
Put the cups in the dishwasher, take a break. Put the bowls in, take a break. So on and so forth. This may mean taking breaks every 2-5 minutes but afterwards, you get to not feel like you've run a marathon while carrying 4 people on your back.
Today, I had a moderate amount of energy. Under my old system of go till you drop, I probably could have done most of the dishes and wiped off the counter and then been dead to the world for the rest of the day.
Under the new system, I scooped litter boxes, cleaned out the fridge, took the trash out, cleaned the stove, and wiped off the counter and did all the dishes. And after all that, I still had it in me to make a simple dinner, unload the dishwasher, and tidy the kitchen.
It was complete and utter insanity. Just because I sat down whenever I felt myself getting more tired than I already was.
All this to say, take fucking breaks. It's time to unlearn the ceaseless productivity bullshit that capitalism has shoved down our throats. Its actively counterproductive. Just sit down. Drink some water. Rest your body when it needs to rest.
There will still be days where there is nothing to do but rest, and days where half a load of dishes is absolutely the most I can do. But this method has really helped me minimize those, which is so incredibly relieving.
“Remember, if you die in the simulation-” “Yeah, yeah, we know, you die in real life.” “What? No! You need to reset the simulation with this terminal! What is WRONG with you humans?!”

Timothy Drake Wayne, youngest CEO, Times person of the year a year ago (you choose why), and all around impressive business individual is easily recognizable wherever he goes…so long as he’s in a suit. As a CEO Timothy is both a staunch professional and a blatant gen z kid which makes him somewhat beloved and well known by everyone across the county.
But then Tim is wandering around Gotham in a pair of jeans and a flannel over long sleeves and no body takes a second glance.
He’s sitting at the skatepark laughing at “Timothy Drake Wayne funniest moments” compilations with other skaters while they take a break and no one knows the video is about him.
Timothy has to take a public flight and the guy at security checks his ID and then looks up at Tim like “hey you have the same name as that one kid CEO.” And it takes everything in Tim’s power to not immediately respond with “that’s because he is me?” Instead he slaps on the biggest grin and says “what a weird coincidence.”
He’s dressed down sitting in first class because he’s not a heathen and he’s gonna be stuck in a suit for this entire conference. The entire time this lady next to him kept scoffing about his appearance and how he probably never worked for a thing in his life. About how the quality of this aircraft company is going down if they’re letting people like Tim occupy first class. Tim, meanwhile, immediately clocked this woman as the CFO of a company WE was considering partnership with. Lol, fat chance that goes through now.
Tim keeps a suit at Wayne Tower for the emergency meetings he sometimes gets called into. He’s heading into the building when the security of the visiting company shoves him out of the way cause they assume he’s some teen. Needless to say that when he walks into the conference room cleaned an suited up, he found complete delight on watching all the blood drain from their face.
Tim makes fun of Superman because he doesn’t even have to wear glasses to get away with his secret identity. He’s not even trying to hide and people still look over him in a crowd when he’s not in a suit.
Some shady company is trying to buy the skatepark Tim regularly visits and has bribed the GCPD to arrest kids for “loitering” or “trespassing.” Or something. Tim gets arrested one time, sends a snap selfie like “lol got arrested.” and then buys the land the skate park is on and also the company that tried to buy it to build a resort.
There is an entire hashtag full of selfies people have taken with a dressed down Tim out and about in Gotham all captioned with something like “lol, I found our favorite teenage CEO’s doppelgänger!”
Human bodies are just so goddamn weird
Our 3 person household is suddenly without transportation. The truck is permanently dead. Our housemate will be getting a new vehicle with her pending divorce money at the end of the month, till then we need to uber to get groceries, go to appointments, etc. We also need help with the electric bill + late fee. The below goal covers both of those.

I... HAVE BEEN INCLUDED!
To all acespec knights, this week belongs to you! I want you to know that you deserve to take space, to be recognized, and you deserve to be seen. This week is the ideal time to remember that asexuality is a valid and wonderful part of our world - shout it loud and clear! And, above all, stay proud ⚔️💪
As it is a few hours until the 31st, please remember these rules while going out!
1: Wear something that is both comfortable and practical. Not too hot but don't let yourself get too chilly. Take a jacket or change of clothes if you need.
2: If you are going to be trick or treating with kids, make sure they stay safe and that you keep an eye on them. Also, don't make them do anything that might be too scary.
3: If you are going to a party, please make sure you keep a close watch on any food or drinks you have.
4: This is a rule for overall but please drink water. With all the fun going you may forget but at least try to remember for your own sake.
5: Check anything you get. The world can be a bit dark at times and when you get free stuff from strangers it's best to check what you are getting.
6: Please don't break the law. This feels like a given but still.
7: Know when to go home, it's only a couple hours but you still need to know when it's time to head back home and rest.
And finally I hope you all enjoy your time!
Happy Halloween!
Love disabled people who just lie about their disabilities to nosy, intrusive questions. Sorry, yeah, I lost my arm in the wash one day. It's funny how that happens! Oh, I got back pain from saving nineteen children from a burning fire department <3
"You'll be late for your own funeral" but as a business. Like you pay 15-30$ to add your name, number, birthday and home address (to ensure proper identity verification) to a data base given to all funeral homes and crematoriums so that they hold onto you for an extra 15-30 minutes. The amount you pay will determine how long the fabricated delay lasts.
A friend is having me go to the Netherlands to visit his family with him the whole month of December because he thinks he can get me to change my mind about hating America and moving to Norway. His privilege level is this: 24 year old white man in the military. He acts like it too
OBSCURE WORD OF THE DAY (7/16/23)
Flashover
Noun. The moment a conversation becomes real and alive when a spark of trust shorts out the delicate circuits you keep insulated under layers of irony, momentarily grounding the static emotional charge you've built up through decades of friction with the world.
OBSCURE WORD OF THE DAY (7/15/23)
Midding
*n* the tranquil pleasure of being near a gathering but not quite in it. Feeling blissfully invisible yet still fully included, safe in the knowledge that everyone is together and everyone is okay, with all of the thrill of being there without the burden of having to be
(The quiet joy of being on Tumblr)
Just a reminder that in animated disney movie "Snow White", Prince Florian, a 31 year old man, flirted with a 14 year old while trespassing on her families property, kissed her lifeless body in the woods without the knowledge that she would wake up and then took her away to get married. Again, he's canonically 31 and Snow White is canonically 14.

Sometines I have the urge to tell people that I have found a really old bible, a pentagram and various wax sealed bottles filled with nails and random shit behind a wall during a diy project. The reason? So I can watch chaos decend as people with adequately funtioning common sense and reasoning skills scream at me to put it all back. Why else?
Nah, your responce was perfect
I dare you to motivate me to study.
The child lives if you study
I could not have asked for a better responce for this 😂 Thank you

Ah, I thought this might be the intended use of the pillow case. I was thinking maybe there was another way to make pillow cases dangerous. I mean if there were stairs...
I dare you to motivate me to study.

Anything is a weapon if incorrectly enough. Genuinely curious on how a pillowcase could be used as a weapon tho

I take a some pleasure in being able to shout into the void and receive not responce. My thoughts for me and me alone with no one to respond and give me massive anxiety about the bullshit that I posted. Thank you, Tumblr for granting me the power of invisibility and complete anonymity
Windyreads, that would literally be my worst nightmare however it's only too dark if he permits you to bring a weapon
I dare you to motivate me to study.

So, sometime in the middle ages there was an uptik in the demand for beef. The church, who had a ton of cows cuz they were fucking rich, had their own stalls and/or provided stalls with meat. They definitely did *not* have enough cows to meet the high daily demand for beef and, on a related note, they were the ones who prepped the dead for burial in their cemetery.
I believe it. Andrew went through so much during the time he was in the age range to have read them. Hell, even if he read them when he was older, he would have loved the series. Think about, a child with an abusive "family member" finds out he is the offspring of a god and gets to run away to safe place and go on adventures? Do you know what other book series fits that narrative with a few variations? Harry Potter, the Boxcar Kids, Alice in Wonderland, The Door Within, The Chronicles of Narnia, etc. He'd read these, see the similarities and *maybe* allow himself the mental escape
andrew minyard read the percy jackson books and loved them
