FUN MATH GAMES UPDATE: I just recieved an ad asking me what 3 + 4 was and telling me to press a button to reveal the answer.

But Google Chrome's gunna stop supporting flash :(
I gotta find a new browser, I guess? The interweb is confusing and my tech knowledge is minimal.

i can't settle on an icon because there's just too many good picrews out there

It's almost 5 AM, I haven't slept and Lin-Manuel Miranda is a national treasure

Time flies when you're wrapped in a tortilla blanket trying not to cackle at random youtube videos

Y'all this girl is giving me Mir vibes and Reed vibes at the same time

"When I was 12 years old I looked at the hairs on the back of my hand, and I said 'My God, I'm alive. Why didn't someone tell me that I was alive?' […] That period of a few days, I discovered I was alive and I discovered maybe I could live forever if I became a writer."
-Ray Bradbury

Every once in awhile I forget he's dead. Then I have to Google it to make sure. He's really a hero of mine.

I sometimes look in my mirror and act like it's someone else, just to have someone to talk to.

i remember there was this one quote by him:

"Some people turn sad awfully young. No special reason, it seems, but they seem almost to be born that way. They bruise easier, tire faster, cry quicker, remember longer and, as I say, get sadder younger than anyone else in the world. I know, for I'm one of them."
— Ray Bradbury (Dandelion Wine)

and i have never related to anyone more, except for Dazai Osamu with his book "no longer human" and Scott Westerfeld with the "Uglies". i think that if it weren't for these people who wrote these books- i'd have no way of knowing what i was capable of. it gives you an eyeful of what their world looked like, and at the same time inspiring you to keep moving forward.

I'm allergic to Baby Bottle Pops and will break out in hives if I have the powder.

I love this quote and find it sadly relatable. Rad Bradbury really was pretty awesome.

Dang. That's deep.

Honestly I feel like if I ever met Thomas Sanders my social anxiety would be at a decently low level because he's such a sweet person

being queer is frustrating

indeed

mOod

Yes indeed.

Mandarin Chinese is probably the closest thing I have to a second language. I've taken classes and studied it the most. It's not my favorite language, and it won't be my second for much longer, but it's the one I'm most knowledgable about. There are phrases in Chinese that are constantly running through my brain now, and some Chinese is apart of my internal dialogue. Sometimes I have to actively stop and think in English to respond to someone. I can recognize the language on TV, but when someone asks what they're saying I have no idea.
I often confuse the Hebrew "toda" and the German "danke" for the English thank you. I've never studied Japanese, but I know "neko" means cat, so sometimes I'll confuse "neko" and the Chinese "mao" with cat. I confuse the Irish "sé" with he/him and "sí" with she/her. A fox in my head is better known as the Irish "sionnbach" and a fish is the Hebrew "dag". Sometimes goodmorning is better known as the Arabic "sabah al-khyr" or the German "guten Morgen". There's a ton of little bits and pieces of foreign language filling my head replacing my mother tongue. All this and I'm still not fluent in anything but English.

Owen, that is so cool.

(I shared this in the lore chat but it should have gone here instead lol)
I just made an account with the Ellis Island Foundation and got to see my grandpa's records! Sure enough, Irish and Scottish heritage, duh. He had grey eyes and brown hair, just like me (also a "fresh" complexion rather than a "fair" one like most the guys on there, whatever that means?) So that's rad. In two years, my family will have been in America for one century, and I'm a third generation immigrant. That was fun to learn :)

Hey, me too!

she also eats half a head of lettuce each day, no dressing, no chopping
she just grabs the entire head, takes it upstairs with her 3ds, and eats it like an apple while she plays before wrapping the remains in cling foil and saving it for tomorrow

Valid.
