Guys I’m so stupid how did I just now make the connection that Paddy Holland is Tom Holland’s brother
But also it’s the way that even though Tom is literally Spider-Man (one of the most iconic characters from one of the most successful franchises ever) I think I would be more starstruck to meet Paddy because like he’s Bobby Vernon from Lockwood and Co. and frankly that’s just much more impressive to me

it’s obvious i haven’t taken my adhd meds in a few days because my brain is screaming every interest i have ever had and telling me to look for a tag for it to follow and then that leads me down a rabbit hole of other tags then i’m reminded of other interests and i’m having to keep up with all these things being said at me to follow. then there’s the adult voice telling me i need to stop worrying about tumblr tags and look for a job and how maybe my father was right that i am a disappointment and i’ve ruined my life. and i’m also listening to taylor swift’s new playlists so i’m thinking about grief and relationships and how maybe i’m not lovable and the idea that anyone could ever fall in love with me seems impossible. also i want to do my affirmations and meditations and visualizations but my brain has too many thoughts and i want to learn witchcraft and i want to go to this witchcraft store i found and the solar eclipse is happening on monday and do i need to do something special for that to get my desires??? also what am i going to eat for dinner? i don’t feel like cooking but ordering out is expensive but ordering out is easy and i just need to eat. and i’m spending money but not doing anything to earn money and i had a therapy session today where i realized that yes i do feel younger but also i feel small/inferior because the world feels too intimidating and judge mental so maybe i’ve been conflating “inferiority” with “immaturity”. and i also have part 2 to my autism testing tomorrow and it’s like if i am diagnosed with autism, then that gives me answers but i’m also still dealing with the disappointment, grief, sadness, anger, frustration, stagnation, trauma and anxiety regardless of my diagnosis. and how will i ever live a life that can support me and my needs and wants when capitalism and politics and mental illness is such a blockade to living a peaceful life and everything is scary and i wish i was a fairy living in a little mushroom house and i have over 500 books on my want to read list on goodreads, i have over 2000 movies in my watchlist on latterboxd, over 1700 videos on my youtube watchlist, over 1000 videos in my subscription youtube video playlist i want to watch, i have easily over 100 tv shows i want to watch written down, and i have no idea why i exist but there’s so much i want to do and it feels overwhelming and now it’s past 6pm and the whole day is gone but what did i accomplish today except another day of yearning for relief?? i guess i’ll just go through the rory culkin tag and listen to taylor swift and hope for a tomorrow that feels more organized even though my brain only knows how to be on a loop of dread and exhaustion

I bought myself a really nice computer monitor for work last year and I love it, but the one thing I wish I could change about it is that it doesn't have a speaker.
It does have a headphone jack, though, so when the day came that I needed to get sound from it, I figured I could just go out and buy a cheap speaker, plug it in with an aux cord, and call it a day. (I'm not picky about audio quality as long as it's, well, audible.)
I went to Best Buy. I went to Walmart. I went to Target. I went to Five Below. I spent over an hour on this fool's errand and came home empty-handed. Everywhere I went, there were plenty of speakers to choose from, but there was one problem.
EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. was BLUETOOTH ONLY.
Don't get me wrong, I love Bluetooth. I have a Bluetooth speaker that I use all the time. It's simple, it's convenient, it's my go-to. It does not, however, have an aux input option.
I didn't realize that had become the norm.
I finally found a speaker I liked with different input options, including aux and Bluetooth, listed on Walmart's website. It was entirely sold out. I ended up buying it off eBay.
I like having different options.
Why are options getting taken away from us?

what i liked about one day netflix version:
set production details--every room was impeccable. every location, stunning.
music--every track felt specifically picked but never did it feel out of place nor did it feel like it took over a scene.
episode format > movie version. clearly.
the acting was better too. i felt like in the first half emma was always looking at dexter like she was trying to figure him out and he always had a habit of looking away from her like he knew she was looking and was afraid she'd find nothing there but an empty vessel. really highlighted his insecurities when it came to her.
what i didnt like:
the unequal attention to her parents vs his. we never even meet her mom but apparently she really liked ian the comedian. why? and it clearly bothered dexter that emma had never introduced them. and we dont even get to see them at the end???
i think his parents had too much screen time.
despite liking the episode format, i do think some screen time was wasted during the solo individual episodes.
their 3x time sex night not being shown and only talked about ??? um i deserved to see that (we all did).
we dont even get to see them get married which bothered me a lot bc emma kept saying the event was like a party but it seemed really important to both of them. like not even a wedding picture.
i would have loved it if dexter had seen the box of all the pictures she had of them (the box ian discovered). i mean yeah, depressing but i still wanted it.

Thinking of how the facilitator for my most recent in-person work training said that all she recalled from her math classes was the Pythagorean theorem and that she neverrrrrrr uses that in her day-to-day life
This is the same woman who told the class that the triangle is the symbol for change… it’s a delta. It’s the Greek letter delta that refers to the change in something
This was the same facilitator who was in charge of another mandatory class I had to take a few years back; she began the session by telling us that when someone asks boomers to think of a kind of bird, they already have that knowledge in their own brains, but when the same question is asked of millennials, the first thing they do is bring out their smartphone. First off: it was her mistake saying that to classroom full of mostly millennials… second: if she’d legitimately asked us that question, I’d’ve had an answer without even needing to look at my phone (bird: an oriole. or Big Bird). It’s no wonder that the class devolved into an actual shouting match a few hours in
