How it feels to be alive sometimes
Beautiful
There are so many theories about Columbo’s wife not being real (she’s a complete fabrication, she’s secretly his boyfriend, he’s actually talking about a very opinionated cat, etc) and I love all of them but tbh he really gives off major “out of touch but super supportive straight man with a trans wife” vibes.
His wife was one of his guy friends for a while and when she finally came out to him he was like “Oh, wouldja look at that! This is VERY convenient. See, I’ve never been into guys myself. Nothing against fellas who like that, just not my cup of tea. So I’ve been trying to figure out for ages why I want to ask you out on a date. Confusin the heck out of me. Again, nothing against it, just never something I’ve been into before. I was having a whole identity crisis over it, Yknow. But I guess that clears all that up! Whaddaya say to dinner?”
Oh thats true! :o Just sad it wasnt enough snow to have a fight or anything.
And the downside is I have to check the weather every day because it changes so much. Two days ago it was 15 degrees celsius, today it was 3...
When you get caught in rain and then realise you genuinely can’t remember the last time it rained
Having a traumatic childhood means you cannot talk even objectively about your basic foundational experiences without it being "venting", even if you're not actually venting. You just straight up have a huge chunk of your life you can't talk about, full stop, without it being trauma dumping.
And it not being socially acceptable to talk about your own childhood is super alienating. Sometimes people want to know why, and any answer you can give them is going to be off putting.
It's to the point I get irritated when something I said is framed as venting when I'm literally just talking about my life experiences, doing my best to keep emotion out of it.
These!
I love how humans have literally not changed throughout history like the graffiti from Pompeii has people from hundreds of years ago writing stuff like “Marcus is gay” “I fucked a girl here” “Julius your mum wishes she was with me” and leonardo da vinci’s assistants drew dicks in their notebooks just for the banter and mozart created a piece called “kiss my ass” so when people wish for ‘today’s generation’ to be like ‘how people used to’ then we’re already there buddy we’ve always been
When I was in primary school it was mandatory to learn four languages: dansish, english, german & manderin, and then you could add french if you wanted (did that for one year before i went NOPE)
It was so confusing. I would start to think in german while learning manderin. Sometimes after an english class I forgot how to speak danish, and couldn't remember a single danish word. Which is my native language. It was so fustrating.
I found a way to help me switch between languages. When I was stuck in a language, I would count to ten in another. And sometimes I couldn't. But eventually I got it, and halleluja! I could think in my native language again.
What they don’t tell you about speaking multiple languages is that your brain does not in fact have a box labeled Spanish and another one labeled German. Instead it has a box labeled “Not English” and sometimes when you’re talking or writing in one of the languages you speak it will just start pulling random words from that box.
Just got of the plane. I could not stop looking at what the guy next to me had between his legs. It was amazing. Sometimes his legs were blocking it so I couldn't see it, but I still tried to peek. Even got a picture:
Obviously a little old with the white hairs, but still a very good boy. Got through the entire flight without moving or even making a sound. I really wanted to pet him, but didn't because of my allergies :(
Birbs!!

Currently watching Willie Muse on youtube. While talking about christmas spirit and the feeling of it slipping away every year he casually drops the line:
"I think nostalgia is the victory price we get for making it through the moment"
10/10 would recommend, dont know if I'll ever be the same.
