Me speaking with a tourist: ah Enchuligung....no gunk? Enchüleigunk ! Ich habe German- no wait Deutsch! Deutsch ja ich habe es. Uhhh gerlernt. Aber meine Deutsch es ist nicht zo gut lol
Them: ah we try English?
Me: ja bitte
Them: I must first apologise to you my dear friend, English is a complex language and I fear I may never truly master it. Even now I am aware of my mistakes and I can only ask your forgiveness for my butchering of this language
Me, tears running down my face: ja okay
Worth saying every once in a while: parents are an oppressor class, the ur-oppressor class, and parental authority is the ur-authority. As has been so often said in science fiction and so little appreciated in everyday life, the responsibility that comes with creating life is grave, and such projects, if undertaken at all, should not be undertaken lightly. If you decide to do it you must be prepared to do it justly, and if you do not do it justly you are culpable. To act justly from a position of power means to relinquish that power whenever it is not disastrous to do so. Parents have a responsibility to work towards their children's safety and wellbeing and a greater responsibility to respect their children as people and to cede authority over their children's lives judiciously as this becomes viable in each domain.
The problem of just parenting is difficult and perhaps unsolvable, but I'm not an anti-natalist, so in the meantime we must settle for minimally unjust parenting. On a personal level, understand what a grave thing it is to take up the de facto authority of parenthood. On a political level, the power of parents as a class must be absolutely broken. Child liberation now.
That anarchist meme that says "the only authority I respect is my mom"? Fuck that meme. Your mom may be a good person and you may love her very much, and I support you in this, but she has no more justified authority over you than a cop or a teacher or anyone else. Free your mind.
To be clear, I have a good relationship with my own parents, and in fact my views on the importance of respecting children as people come in large part from my mom, who has always felt very strongly about this topic. But as an adult I can recognize that even they did things, often normal things, while raising me that (although I would never say this to them) were fundamentally unconscionable to do to another human being. It's the nature of being a parent in our society. We have to change this.
Anonymous asked:
What's your favorite flour?
im really partial to almond flour!! i dont do a lot of baking with gluten free flour substitutes anymore but like. the thing is, if you're baking something where the gluten is structurally important, sometimes the king arthur 1:1 gf flour substitute works and sometimes the thing falls apart all over your hand, but if you use almond flour and add eggs until it stops falling apart, it also has lots of protein in it :p (although it may not resemble the original glutenous Baked Good very strongly.)
one of my favorite dead-simple cookie recipes is basically just almond flour + enough honey that the flour sticks together; you shape it into little balls with your hands and then slap those bitches in the oven until they're dryish. and then you eat them.
if i did more baking (i.e. any baking, at all) i'd probably also try cricket flour but at the moment i'm more invested in other hobbies
so what do u think about plays
i like how in a theatre time and space are necessarily metaphorical. i don’t like how plays always have to begin with someone walking onstage and talking. too many directors try to work around this by having someone walk onstage and brood in silence for a moment before talking. this is worse.

If you were directing a play, how would it begin?
bilbao-moon
bagpipes at the back of the auditorium so everyone turns their heads and when they’ve turned back around the play has already begun
god I’m so fucking tired today. trans barista was CLEARLY clocking me when he was like “I think you and I have a lot in common!” but for some reason my brain immediately went to spinal columns and I raised my fist and said “yeah! team Chordata!”
Op is a squid trying to pass
im so bad at complimenting art i go “OOGGGH” and “THAT IS SO EPIC” which is not enough but i mean those so genuinely
life actually gets better when you leave the house consistently btw like im serious
if you don't know where to go, just wander! go to the store and don't buy anything, go to the library just to sit and do whatever you were going to do at home, go to a park and just walk around/sit outside for a bit (weather permitting, of course)
just put some headphones in and walk around the block a couple times if you really have nothing else to do, just getting a bit of air and change of scenery is so good for you
me the first few weeks of forcing myself to go on daily walks (it gets better tho)
One of my friend groups has gotten in the habit of sending each other a "daily outside picture." Sometimes we'll assign a specific "quest" - go find us a flower, a weird leaf, a cool lawn decoration, and send a picture of it.
We don't actually maintain it daily, but for some of us having a "task" can really help when want to get out for a bit but have a hard time doing so "pointlessly."

Finished a quilt top! This is for my cousin’s new baby. It’s a mix of EPP and machine piecing — I paper pieced the hexagons, added corners to make them rectangles, and machine pieced the borders to get 10” squares. Now I gotta decide how to quilt it.
