tsum events really are just the best, huh
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#tsumsted wonderland#to be fair this is from mal's card story so it's more...event-adjacent#i-it still counts right#poor malleus tsum is having such a time#first it blows up the kitchen and then it almost gets spin-cycle'd to tsum-death#the poor little guy just wanted to help with the party! it was trying its BEST 😭#and instead it accidentally recreated every other tuesday from my college days#i am so genuinely delighted to read two entire chapters of malleus bragging about knowing how to use household appliances#(he knows what he's doing! he READ the MANUAL)#(you know that manual has copious notes covering the margins in perfect copperplate)#and the callback to his dorm ssr story. perfect.#we all knew this was going to end in malleus punching a washing machine into smithereens#i'm disappointed that the next part is probably just going to be a fun party or whatever#and not malleus showing off how close he is to finally mastering the toaster#twst please where is my spinoff game where we have to help a dragon fae prince learn how to do household tasks#i have an indescribable need to see malleus attempt to use a vacuum#he is very enthusiastic and also very stupid and we love him for it

It’s been about 10 days since I’ve been without a washing machine. Doing a few loads of laundry at a nearby laundromat hasn’t been awful. It doesn’t take long either. The heavy duty machines are fast. I bring the damp, clean clothes home to my dryer or clothesline.
That doesn’t mean I want to do it forever.
I ordered the new washer right after the old one broke and found the repair estimate too high. Buying a new one became my preferred choice. Plus I just wanted something different.
The interminable wait for delivery sucks.
Today is the delivery day! I was assigned a three-hour window. That’s no problem because I’m at home today. I moved both cars into the street. Our jackets got moved away from the top of the stairway down to the basement. I have made sure the path from truck to space next to the dryer is as clear as possible -- so there’s nothing else to delay the installation of my new washing machine.
This afternoon I’ve set aside time to read the manual cover-to-cover. I don’t want to risk not learning about some setting or feature that I will find useful.
#I actually don't have a lot of laundry to catch up on#But I can't wait to start!#I always read owner manuals completely#My wife on the other hand does not#Just press start seems to be her approach to appliances

Never ever EVER buy household appliances with ai in them. Most ridiculous things I’ve ever encountered
#to be clear i did not buy one but had to use one to do a load of laundry (who needs ai in a laundry machine??) and let me tell you it was#useless.#first the thing apparently ‘senses the dirty ness of your clothes to calculate the wash cycle’ which then would only ever decide to do a#cycle that took 4. freaking. hours. never have i encountered a washer that takes longer than an hour to wash your clothes.#and without the ability to manually say you want it to be a specific time? makes no sense. who has that kind of time in their day.#NEXT we go to dry the clothes and it also wants to run it for an insane amount of time. so we click it anyways (horrible decision)#and think oh we’ll just open it halfway through#well. upon stopping the cycle halfway through the damn thing says that the door is locked because it’s ‘too hot.’#never have i seen something that thinks i’m going to burn myself on my hot clothes. like cmon#also cause opening the door would be a surefire way to cool the clothes down you’d think??#so we try all sorts of troubleshooting things and even unplugging it and it STILL WOULDNT UNLOCK.#the damn thing is still locked btw. dunno if ill ever get those clothes back#so glad this at least isn’t actually a dryer we spent money on and just one that was here while we’re traveling and need to do laundry#but like. cmon#there’s no reason we shouldn’t be able to decide how long to wash our clothes for and instead let a ‘smart’ (hint: it’s not smart) machine#do it for us#(hint part 2: this isn’t just about the clothes)#soni rambles#more like soni RANTS#i was already angry about the idea of ai in appliances but experiencing first hand how bad they are makes me even more angry#and a little scared for the future#now it’s 2am and the laundry is still stuck and im too upset to go to sleep. gah#and i don’t get mad easily.#oh and did i mention that to dry your clothes it wouldn’t let you select a temperature?? that it only said it would sense it itself??#see i like to dry all my clothes on low heat cause ive had a history of them shrinking#so not only are they trapped in the machine but it’s ‘too hot’ because it wouldn’t let us select a lower temperature.#luckily i didn’t put anything in that’s a material that usually shrinks

I learned my lesson about juicing limes from the great cosmopolitan incident of january, when I juiced 6 oz of lime juice by hand. so tonight when making avgolemono soup, I have a handy lemon juicer so I can hand juice zero lemons
#random text post silliness#food mention#lemon juicer is a necessary kitchen appliance#i will need to make another batch of cosmos soon and i am very excited to manually squeeze zero limes

w hyy is the boiler out as soon as it starts to get below freezing I'm gonna kill
#also that'd be really expensive for us to fix if it's anything worse than the pilot light mouth being clogged :///#so I really hope it's just that and not actually broken#yeah the energy price hike wasn't enough I guess. god sorry for spiralling so frequently on here these days but#kinda sucks how a lot of experiencing life is just hang around until some other garbage goes wrong again#very relieved I'm not on my own here/ have to try and relight because christ I don't know how anyone can feel comfortable doing that#a manual gas boiler would be a dealbreaker in my own place#“press to release gas into the pilot light hole. light a match and insert it. keep pressing the switch down until the flame turns blue” no?#no thank you ?????#god I hate gas appliances so much why is operating them just a game of “release a bit of gas near a naked flame. but not too much!!!”#boilers and ovens suck dude why do we just have objects in the house that can explode if they want to#we already got stuck with the appendix we didn't have to invent more

ive lived here a good dozen years and today only i noticed there is a little hook on the back of one of the cupboard doors. i guess thats for the potholder i had languishing in a drawer then!
#personal hapo#discovery time with hapo apparently#i am so close to being done cleaning out the cupboards over the kitchen desk#which i have been slowly been assigning new purposes since the demise of the landline telephone#what i need still is a spare phone charger though i think#also CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH the importance of organizing all the household appliance manuals#they are now in clear sleeves instead of shoved in a drawer

on to a month of getting confused about what time it is before I finally summon the energy to change the oven clock
#I hate those things#no matter how many times I change clocks on appliances I never remember how to do it without a manual#/dev/random

up thinking abt spreadsheets again. for funsies this time
#mine#yanno if you were a small business you could use a macro-enabled workbook to calculate prices via dropdowns and email the invoice as a pdf#if you had a friend group w dietary restrictions you could use conditional formatting to determine which recipes would kill who#if you'd been meaning to clean the junk drawer of appliance manuals and warranties ... you get the idea#I'm just creating scenarios in my head and daydreaming of workbook templates#wish I had the energy to properly market this skill bc I rly would love to take on freelance gigs that's just cataloguing somebody's hobby

what if they kissed ? prompt / not accepting.
@prnkill sent ── What if they kissed?
zestial is a decent cook when it comes to the same several dishes he's been preparing forever but when he's in a kitchen he's unfamiliar with there are some .. hiccups. not to mention technology he's not in the least familiar with ( all this to say , it's not going all that well. ) whatever staff had been about skittered away at the mere sight of zestial , clad in clothes he'd summoned rather than an ill - fitting pink robe.
after the second try is swept into the trash , he's dragged a little shadowy demon out of swirls of lime green magic & hindered helped them complete the simple meal of pancakes. by the time he hears val enter , zestial's turning with two plates in hand. the spider's a stark contrast to the atmosphere of the penthouse but he doesn't seem the least bothered.
perhaps he hadn't expected him to stay , like he'd slither away when morning came. zestial hardly thought such was proper ( AS IF ANY OF THIS WAS ) he'd give a little , not all ! this crosses into territory he's not entirely used to but he'd be damned before he was thrown off kilter.
the plates of food are set atop table before zestial turns to properly face him & pull out a chair. so polite , as if evidence of differing activities didn't linger on both their skin. " good morrow , " drawled with a crinkle of his eyes , fingertips beckoning val closer to steal a kiss. an attempt at a chaste peck hardly remains so , clawed hand dancing along skin to rest at the nape of neck.
" dessert comes after a meal. " it doesn't sound all that much like chastisement really.
#prnkill#* ── dealing in your secrets. : inbox.#i was like oh i'll do it based off what we talked abt a lil and then#remembered zee. would not know how to use most modern appliances#i'm crying. he's stressed about the stove#this could've been val walking in on him reading the manual for it.

death to whoever wrote this fuckibg dishwasher manual btw
#I have spent SO MUCH of this WHOLE DAY trying to get my dishwasher working#only to finally discover I had to turn one tiny level by like 45 degrees#this lever was referred to in the manual as “the water tap”#do you want to guess what I kept turning on#given the dishwasher is right next to the kitchen sink#like idk man I think if you're writing a manual you should probably assume the person reading it has never touched said appliance before#and a few things might need clarifying
