This was shared as a "bad" joke but I was so charmed by it I've been thinking about it for days.

So, about the "You made me chicken soup" scene. Most people find it funny and think Hannibal gets slightly offended, but the first time I watched it, I thought it was actually sweet.

Will wakes up to the smell of food, sees what Hannibal has brought and is genuinely surprised. Chicken soup is what you prepare to your loved ones when they're sick (like Reba does for Francis in season 3). He's not used to having people taking care of him. That's why he tells Hannibal "You made me chicken soup", and Hannibal is somehow taken aback by his reaction, and pauses before answering "Yes", in a total different tone. Like he understands the meaning his gesture has for Will. I don't think he's annoyed by the fact that Will is reducing his fancy dish to a simple chicken soup. That "Yes" is an aknowledging of his affection for Will to Will.

And he turns away, as if he'd been caught off-guard too.

A group of rough looking boys walked past me today and all I heard of their conversation was “he’s got that anxiety disorder bro so I went with him so he’d be more comfortable” and it made me realise the world isn’t all that bad

Ok so at this point I've had two people roll up to me in manual wheelchairs, well, one of them was somebody pushing somebody who was nonverbal at the time, but it still counts. They asked me why I had zip ties around my tires.

It's winter where I'm living and we have really bad snow. And the snow plow people are really bad at their jobs probably because there aren't snow plow people who clean sidewalks. As a solution I got to thinking about how I could increase the traction on my wheels. And the most redneck thing I could think of was taking a bunch of zip ties and tying them around my wheels. They last surprisingly long, and work surprisingly well. It's basically the same premise as chains for your tires during the winter.

I chose to space them out pretty evenly so there's about one for every spoke. You could probably do more or less depending on how many you want and how much traction you get but I wouldn't go more than three per spoke. I realize that it's a bit later in the winter, and I probably should have made a post about this sooner, but I came up with it about a week ago. So please share this, even if you're not disabled, because there are tons of people I know who are stuck in their houses because they can't get around in the snow. A pack of zip ties costs about $5, which compared to $200 knobby snow tires is a big save, and if you want to invest you could get colored zip ties.

It’s wild to me to see transvestigator conspiracy theories online that could be so easily explained by natural human variation. That woman has a deep voice? Yeah, sometimes they do. A woman has broad shoulders?? Maybe she plays rugby or hits the gym a fuckton. There’s a “bulge” in her tight pants?? Maybe her vulva is just fat. All the “markers” of trans woman that transvestigators use to harass any woman aren’t even things unique to trans women.
