@waxscoralpants the WHAT
The good thing of not having the new update yet is I can easily stock up on soup ingredients.

replies on arachnophobia and heartless chickens
mikkeneko replied to your post “post-processing”
Eviscerating a chicken and just... not finding a heart in the ribcage makes me nostalgic for all those various fetch quests where you're sent to collect 10 Wolf Heads or something and yet the drop rate is only 50%. WHERE ARE THE OTHER HEADS.
So the thing about ok TW for like, well, eviscerating I guess, don’t read the rest of this answer if you’re gonna be grossed-out about organs which is frankly an understandable thing to be eviscerating is that you mostly do it by touch, right, because you only cut a pretty small hole in the chicken and then you have to go in with your hand and disconnect all the connective tissue and what not. So you get this handful of organs. Most of it is sort of... I mean it’s just squishy. (Actually this lot had gravel in their esophaguses a lot which felt super fucking weird.) But some of the organs have pretty distinctive textures. So you can easily find the liver, which is a dark color and very obvious, and the gizzard, which is a big muscular ball and very solid, and the heart, which is smallish but usually quite firm? well this batch of chickens almost all had really flaccid hearts, idk what else to call it. I spent much of processing day trying to come up with a country song about a flaccid heart. So anyway it’s easy to find hearts, except this batch, they were so goddamn squishy i actually almost missed a couple more of them.
(The other catchphrase of the day, for some reason, was “low-quality enema”, but I don’t recollect why that was, already... So I think it’s that the band name is The Flaccid Hearts and the debut album is Low-Quality Enema, that’s how this goes, right?)

As someone with like, maybe moderately severe arachnophobia? Now I'm wondering how mine compares to others'. People who just react without judgment and help us deal with it are a godsend so like, thank you on BILs behalf
Ha, aww.
I actually devote a fair amount of psychic energy in my daily life to, like. Understanding people’s viewpoints, quirks, foibles, etc. There’s something to be said for encouraging someone to overcome an irrational fear, sure, but there’s often even more to be said for just taking care of it so they don’t have to be upset. Obviously BIL has worked hard in his life to overcome the arachnophobia, he’s obviously a generally rational person who’s devoted a lot of effort to bettering himself and the like, he’s clearly aware of his limits, and it’s super, super obvious there’s only so much he’s going to be able to do with this phobia. He was gearing up to deal with the thing on his own but like. Why? It wasn’t going to hurt me. I asked him if he’d been hurt, when he made the noise, and he said “It’s more that I’ve taken psychic damage”, and he was kidding but he also wasn’t kidding.
That said, I also immediately texted my mild-to-moderately arachnophobic other sister who’d been providing me with breathless updates about the spiders on her deck (but not letting me come over and remove them for her! I offered that like, instantly when she first texted me!!) and told her I’d just had to save BIL from a spider so big I needed to use a bucket, and she was like why would you tell me this and I was like to prove i can do it, i’ll totally come over and she was like no I’m attempting to coexist and i was like whatever.

a wild grab bag of reply-replies
Normally I’d do this in batches of related topics or whatever but something I reblogged got a ton of notifications and for some reason Tumblr’s not grouping them together so I had to scroll for three days to get to any notes about any other posts, so like, yikes, sorry, here’s a firehose of everything interesting anyone’s ever said to me. Thanks, Xkit, for allowing reply-replies, but sorry, Dreamwidth peeps, for what an incoherent mess the crossposter makes this into.
msilverstar replied to your post “updates from the middle-aged”
a) sprinklers ≠ whole pool, b) May ≠ August
i mean, fair, but we also had a kiddie pool and we also just sprayed the hose on each other, and it was over 90 yesterday.
akilah12902 replied to your post “UNDERCUT ACHIEVED”
That undercut is just magnetically attractive. I was gonna play the whole game with the long hair but the opening screen kept TAUNTING me and I went undercut and haven't changed it since.
I can’t get over it, it’s sort of horrifying to me what a difference it makes for me. I have to re-evaluate myself in ways I wasn’t prepared for.
missbuster replied to your post “updates from the middle-aged”
Uhhh. Remember it’s still May and snowed like three weeks ago so the large bodies of water + water tables are still frigid
I mean, fair, but, I did this in spring as a kid. I have noticed that the temperature of the water at my parents’ house doesn’t vary seasonally, but the municipal water supplies in Buffalo and Rochester absolutely do, which is super weird
waxscoralpants eplied to your post “updates from the middle-aged”
My mom used to fill our kiddie pool and then boil several kettles of water to dump in. What a sweet gesture, in retrospect
awww!!!
Last night I emptied the muddy water and refilled the pools with clean water, so that it could be at least ambient temperature this afternoon. Of course, having done that, it’ll be rainy and we won’t play outside, but we need the rain so it was all really kind of a ploy to exploit Murphy’s law.
akilah12902 replied to your post “updates from the middle-aged”
HOW ON EARTH, AS THE SKINNIEST DARN KID, I EVER MANAGED TO LIVE WITH HOSE WATER
Right?? I was a lil beanpole too!!
I really remember our fingernails and lips being blue and our mom making us stop playing
saffronheliotrope replied to your post “mouths of babes vol 749”
My 2yo was EXTREMELY AFFRONTED when I started wearing shorts and he encountered my sting hairs. Sorry, kiddo. Shaving in a quarantine is *all done hands*
STING HAIRS. She re-shaved yesterday, the fool-- I was like no that’s your protective layer, and she just laughed.
mikkeneko replied to your post “Extra Dad Jokes”
So of the pig farmer, the military logistics, and the party-planner, which was the one you would ask to hide a body and which one got offended?
The pig farmer! Who, in retrospect, is also super-intense and competitive, so IDK why I didn’t see that coming except I fully expected her to be like “I have a business, I can’t risk the cops involving themselves!” and she was like HOW DARE U. She’s super ruthless but also ride or die and how dare I forget that.
bittylildragon replied to your post “Extra Dad Jokes”
Oh man, Lambert's Tragic Dead Boyfriend Revenge Quest and Geralt's 'you smell wonderful at this funeral' line AND his dad jokes all in one evening
It was really a pretty magical evening.
missbuster replied to your post “Extra Dad Jokes”
For the first time in my life my house is getting central air too. I cannot fucking wait.
Oh I know, man. But my dude got the first quote and sent me this bitmoji of himself (the bitmoji looks a lot more like Cary Elwes than Dude actually does, for the record):
[image description: bitmoji cartoon of green-eyed white blond man with a moustache and goatee making a dead-eyed open-mouthed grin while flinging green bills of US currency over his shoulder with wild abandon]
but i mean, the furnace is from the late 70s or early 80s and has to Go, so

My siblings always used to make fun of me for eating only one waffle. I'd say it's just a little snack! And they'd say TWO waffles is a snack. One waffle is a disappointment.
