#but there was a cake

[lover-of-mine]

In between those days there was cake. I spent seven hours baking it and then all of the next day in the er. I don't think you know that. That I landed myself in the hospital. It wasn't really the cake's fault, I just pushed through it to make it for you. Your face when you saw it was priceless. It made it worth it, I think. Everyone's face when they saw it, really. But yours mostly, since, you know, it was for you. That and the way I got a week off school because I made myself worse by pushing through. We weren't even us yet. That change would happen a few weeks later. We were there but we weren't us. Not in the way we became that night you let my tears stain your sweater. But I still spent seven hours baking you a cake. I never knew how to not give my all. We weren't half of what we grew to be and I put myself in the er to make something that would make you happy. That's really my problem, isn't it? I crash too hard. I don't know how to do things half way. I don't know how not to push through an 103 degree fever for someone I love. And that's too much. Or too scary. Or maybe I'm the one who's not worth landing in the emergency room for. Maybe the thought that I would do it is the scary part. I guess this type of devotion is too much. Your cake wasn't even the only cake that took a whole day. I was just out there handing out pieces of myself disguised as baked goods with colorful frosting to people who couldn't recognize what I was doing. Or just didn't care enough for it to matter. All of you broke my heart in your own way. I guess I should've expected you to do it too. Should've kept my guard up because all of it crumbled. Why would we be different? Why wouldn't we hurt each other in ways we can't come back from too? Why did I trust we wouldn't crash apart when it came down to it? It's all we know after all. No sculpted cake or pan of brownies or jar of cookies can save a situation that was never meant to be sweet. Or maybe I was cursing myself by attaching it all to something fleeing. No one stays at the dining table once all there's left are crumbs. I don't know why I expected for you to sit with me in the kitchen while I bake a new one.

more good news from tiktok: they’ve started blocking celebrities.

they’re calling it block party 2024. just blocking and ignoring countless celebrities who havent said shit about palestine. influencers, actors, anyone who went to the met gala, whatever, they’re getting blocked. and people keep talking about how cathartic it is, how good it feels, how they never realized they could DO that. there was some kind of subconscious law against blocking famous people, but it’s broken, and people are LOVING it. and it’s WORKING. a social media/digital advertising coordinator was talking about how ad companies are PANICKING, because they can’t accurately target anymore. so many big influencers, including fucking LIZZO started talking about palestine the MOMENT their follower counts started going down. and the best part? no one is forgiving them. lizzo posted a tiktok asking people to donate to palestinian families, and all the comments just said you’re a multimillionaire. put your money where your mouth is. blocked.

i feel like i’m witnessing the downfall of celebrity culture, right here right now. people are waking up.

the thing about Professor Utonium is he didn't accidentally create 3 daughters, he purposely created 3 daughters who accidentally have superpowers. the sugar, spice, and everything nice was intentional, only Chemical X was an accident

this guy became a girl dad on purpose and I am so proud of him for achieving his dream!
