A lazy morning

[drunktuesdays]

did you know that george clooney had a pet pig named max

I’m answering this tonight because I’m in the mood and we should discuss this.

I did know that George Clooney had a pet pig named Max, because I’m a basic bitch with basic tastes, and I’ve been in lowkey lust with George Clooney since his ER days. 

One time, when I was in a car going from Connecticut to New Jersey with @giddygeek, we discussed George Clooney’s giant ass pig Max and eventually came to this question. 

Would you have sex with George Clooney if Max had to be in the room, softly grunting to himself?

Yes, we declared.  And then I looked up Max, and it turned out that Max DIED a WHILE ago.  I mean, this was in 2010, so it’s definitely been like 10 years since Max died.  So then the question became, would you have sex with George Clooney if his dead pig Max was in the room?

The answer, clearly, was ONLY if it had been properly taxidermied. 

And thus, sex chicken was born.  

It works like this: pick a celebrity that you think you can go to the mat with, weird sex situation wise.  For me, it’s George Clooney.  For you, it might be Gal Gadot.  Sex chicken DOES NOT discriminate.   Not into sex?  Feel free to alter your situation, but make it something challenging.

Anyway, would you have sex with [YOUR VERSION OF GEORGE CLOONEY] if he(OR SHE, OR ZHE) could ONLY get it up surrounded by sheets patterned with the face of Woody from Toy Story?

@mirandandnina @acuisle I love learning all of this! We talked about this in philosophy class once, except with numbers. Apparently there was a group of people somewhere without words for numbers, and thus no concept of them either. It’s interesting to know and find out just how much impact the language we use has an effect on our perception of reality! I just got a whole book about colours, maybe I’ll see the world just a little differently after reading it haha :) Oh and I just saw your reply on those sketches, I'm glad you liked them and I hope it works out! I had fun doing it.

i started watching it on a plane and turned it off in the middle of the first song. it was so disappointing, and what’s worse is it made 1.2b so they’re just going to keep making bad live action disney classics.

omfg that’s a ridiculous amount of money for this subpar movie to make?? god

How to stay sane at an all-week work conference

You know, the kind with 1000 people in a ballroom for the keynote speaker and sessions have 100 people in a room and you have to sit for 8 hours and pay attention all the while the din of hundreds of people talking slowly peels apart your brain and your limbs start twitching with the need to run. Those kind.

A guide, by me

Cut yourself a stack of origami paper, 2inch square. I cut it with my rotary cutter and self healing mat board and cackled as I heard quilters worldwide shrieking in dismay

Stick them in a little snack jar with a lid and bring them to the conference. Fold crane after crane after crane. When someone expresses interest, emphasize this requires zero thoughts, all motor memory (neurotypicals can get weird when someone is crafting with their hands in order to listen with their ears) and hand them a crane. Everyone is so delighted by their little gift, they fail to be mad at you for doing something with your hands.

--side note: wear some high fidelity ear plugs to help with the noise--

-- second side note: I also mainlined highly caffeinated tea in an effort to stay focused and also keep my mouth busy so I wasn't interrupting/talking constantly--

At the end of the day, pull out your cranes and stick them in your luggage so people don't realize how much you are making.

Then walk 7 or so miles in the evening to burn off the jiggles

Paper sanity

Bonus content- I brought them home and Acuisle promptly romped around in them like they were his own personal ball pit.

@acuisle I didn’t answer this for the longest time because I wanted it to be in my askbox FOREVER but I guess you deserve to know that I saw it and how much it means to me. Because this is honestly the most motivating thing I could possibly read. I feel down about my art? Boom. Not anymore! I don’t even need to get notes with this thing because you, an experienced artist whose art I admire, apparently see something in what I doodle and expect more growth in the future. This really keeps me going. So thank you, I guess, for leaving the kindest most impactful message you could’ve sent a couple months ago. <3

abbylee-here replied to your post “werewolfzero replied to your post: acuisle replied...”

I had such a visceral NO to this; he was such an asshole when he played for the Jets :(

The suggestion was mostly because of how tiny and fight-y he is lol but I just saw that they DID have an ex-NHL player a couple of years ago (Sean Avery), and by all accounts HE was a giant asshole. I guess the nice ex-hockey players (if they exist) are just ready to duck out of the limelight and golf quietly or something.

ok i know you've answered a ton of questions about this u A u but i want to make sure i understand how this works; in round ONE, people can claim unclaimed fic using column B. in round TWO, people can claim multiple secondary UNCLAIMED fic, so we would still be putting our names in column B. in round THREE, once all the fics are claimed, two more people can sign up for the now claimed fics, in columns C and D.

thats exactly right!

[drunktuesdays]

just brought up the framework of 'campground rules' in this community accountability workshop and realized what i'm talking about is FROM A TEEN WOLF FIC AND NOT EVEN A UNIVERSAL CAMPING TERM

Well, coworkers, at this point I’d like to reference the the noted treatise “Don’t Worry Baby” by @kalpurna, where she says:

Yeah, exactly, Stiles thinks. He's decided to practice wilderness philosophy on Derek: leave your campground cleaner than you found it. Carry out more trash than you carry in.

And I’d like to deep discuss how we can apply that philosophy to our community.  Please take a minute to do the reading I’ve included in the handout.  Thanks all.
