ā€œTell me weā€™re dead and I'll love you even more. I'm surprised that I say it with feeling. There's a thing in my stomach about this. A simple thing. The last rung.ā€

These construction workers that are redoing the road I live by need to fuck off
The DUG IN MY YARD (didn't tell anyone why) and broke a gas line and somehow didn't notice before simply reburying it and I'm so glad someone else smelled it outside because I would not have
And now it's not even 8 in the morning and they're already being loud
I'm so ready to start throwing rocks

I went into Peril on Gorgon expecting a light-hearted funny old-fashioned Old-World-Blues-style adventure, instead I want the devs to go back to working on this fucking game so they can patch in an option to round up the entirety of the board and burn them alive

i forgot to mention that yesterday the doctor brought out this patient to optical who immediately asked, "which ones are the men's glasses?" like, great, we're off to a transphobic start; love that for us. the doc is like, "oh, you know, they're kind of all together." and the other optician takes the chart (thank someone because i am not about to suffer this human). i hear her say, "yeah, and some of them are unisex!" to which he immediately comes out with, "oh, i don't want any of THAT."
like, sir, kindly remove your head from your ass. we're coming for the term unisex now? get the fuck over yourself.
i got distracted with helping my trainee with a woman who couldn't get the deal on sunglasses, but later the guy working front desk was like, "did you catch the horrible vibes off of that guy? 'where are the men's glasses?' shut up! and then he was like, 'that's not how i was raised.' no one cares. sir, this is a wendy's! leave your garbage opinions at home."
thank someone my coworkers aren't shit, at least.

#kaguya sama spoilers#iino & osaragi#kaguya sama manga#iino x osaragi#the more i make these the more unhinged the tags get lol#on my earlier reads i thought osaragi's rant was kinda like when shinomiya insults shirogane in order to persuade fujiwara away from him#but now i also think it's similar to when iino tells shirogane all the reasons she shouldn't like ishigami only to cry at the end#what do jolene the stone bowl arc and nerdy girl's hate me have in common#they were all supposed to be straight but it doesn't take much to think that they're very much not#seriously the lyrics of hate me are literally about the singer taking the boy that her friend loves#but she spends most of the song screeching to her friend as if burning bridges and knowing her friend hates her for sure is the actual poin#it's the same idea from torn-up road where they do something self-destructive to know for certain that it will be unrequited#hate me is a banger go listen to it! but anyway#the scorpion story fits not only bc of the 'nature' part but bc sadoeuphemist writes it as a loop#the story usually plays out badly but the loop continues anyway which works for knowing the bad ending but being unable to give up#against her better judgement#coincidentally othello is iino's character song although it's about the board game not the shakespeare play#but there's an essay on othello that talks about mimetic desire and that sums up what i was thinking in an older post really well#also fyi torn-up road and othello are a male narrator talking about a man just to clear that up#web weaving

I am watching an interview with Christian and the interviewer referred to Checo as the second driver and Christian didnā€™t correct him.
Not only that but he also said ā€œā€¦..of course Checo has to strive for that(the championship) otherwise why would he be competing. But I think you know the reality is thatā€¦ā€¦.or the probability is that Max over the season is the more likely candidate for the world championship.ā€
