Tacocats

 

Thought we were in the Favorite Foods thread for a second and got worried

 

I've more than likely said this before but learning

 

You know what's fucked...I remember when this episode aired.

Watching a really, really good movie for the first time (it was Perfect Blue)

 

today is one week sober from cannabis for me

 

congratulations Travis

 

thank you, Mary

 

I'm in the phase right now known as the pink cloud which is full of euphoria and possibly false hope

been here many times and it's easy to get a false sense of security right before you relapse but I'm cognizant of that this time

 

Glad I wasn’t the only one lol

 

knowing your words offer the people you love comfort in very dark times. that's what this whole thing we call life is all about. we all need help at times and when someone is down and I can drastically change the way they are construing their experience, it really is everything

 

Knowing that my fiancé is moving to Australia in six months and long distance will effectively be over after years of saving and surviving shutdowns due to covid

 

Will probably babble too long to make a point here but while I will be one of the first to say “we spend too much time on our phones / electronics” I truly enjoy how helpful the technology can be. I love to just relax and deep dive into a Google search history.

For example I’ve been really big into Legos since building The Office set over Christmas and spend hours scrolling through the Lego website to see all the shit you can buy and learning about events and Lego stores and all this stuff I never knew existed. I may never buy another Lego set again but my point is more so just learning all this shit from the comfort of my couch in pajamas.

Or deep diving random things on Wikipedia or YouTube. How was this done 20-30-60 years ago??? I guess reading about it in libraries? For as bad as technology can be I do love the simplicity of searching from having and the cliche of having all of the worlds knowledge at our fingertips to look at cat memes and shit sometimes. It’s just a nice leisurely relaxing way to spend some time (but for me personally can only do this like one day a month)

 

Encyclopedias maybe? makes me think back to elementary school when they taught us how to research with encyclopedias and said we'd be using them all the time and then I never used one again in my life cause you know, the internet blew up lol
