Sometimes I'm surprised by how ppl react when they see characters falling sick after getting drenched in rain and getting sponge baths when they are sick, and then i remember they probably didn't grow up in the parts of Asia where it's all tropical climate with a lot of heat and humidity and wayyy too much rainfall and probably didn't suffer from rain/monsoon induced fevers that make you feel like you're dying, and also probably never had sponge baths given to them
I don't dig the sickness (kudos to my recent strong immunity!!) but the sponge baths were often worth getting sick for. They're relaxing af
And yes, the sponge bath typically only contain hot water (though not always), and yes they're usually rather effective, too.

anyone else here got the specific mental & physical illness combo where you neglect and forget about and fail to notice basic household tasks to the point that sometimes when you finally go to do the dishes there's a Fascinating Smell in the sink so overpowering that it makes you puke.

i feel like a lot of people ignore the fact that in a lot of places, bicycling just. cannot be done for half the year, & that's why public transport being good is important. i cannot bike in 5 feet of snow & ice or in 40c heat. i can't even walk in that, unless i have the energy to snowshoe or a bucket of ice water to chug.
"but I can do it!" good for you. unfortunately i live in Berk (snowing for 9 months of the year & hailing the other 3) & cannot unless i want to die. also disabled people exist. & children. & people who live in a place where everything is no closer than 30 minutes away, & 30 minutes in -30c can kill you if you can't afford a good pair of boots & a good coat. i may have bike paths but the river floods past them every year. what do i do then? bike on the highway?? just let me take the train

I owe my team a beer after today, but since drinking and working is frowned upon (derogatory) I'm going to have to be a lame ass manager and do pizza lunch tomorrow. They deserve much more, and I told them so.

@sirserpentine said: you fell asleep in my arms. it was kind of adorable. //ehe
"IMPOSSIBLE. I don't sleep."
And yet he was stumbling himself out of the coma-like nap. Grumbling something about his pride and unmatched awareness amidst his slow behaviour. The devils eyes not even attempting to open just yet.
