Pictures From My Phone Of My Computer Screen Of Sketches I Did. Stanford Pines In The Road Work Ahead

Pictures from my phone of my computer screen of sketches I did. Stanford pines in the “road work ahead” vine along with a lovely “this dog can drive,” which is an iconic drawfee bit, especially strong in this particular line, which Jacob Drawfee actually said for real. Here’s the animated video of that— everyone subscribe to the drawfee channel they’re incredibly funny and talented artists and comedians.

This. This needs to be recognized. I’ve been trying to try new foods lately even though it’s so hard and so frustrating because I can only deal with like 1/20 of them, but dang, when people make comments like this it’s so uncomfortable— “Yea, I don’t like this stuff either, but I’m so hungry.” & “You said you were hungry, why aren’t you eating?” & “What, so you’re just gonna starve?”

I’m so grateful that I have irl friends who don’t judge me for not eating normally. When my one friend makes burgers at a watch party, we’ve established I don’t eat them, and he tries to keep plain tortilla chips around for yours truly. That’s friendship. Because I really wouldn’t be able to eat the burgers, even though they smell nice and I think it’s neat that he makes them! I’d love to participate… but I just can’t.

I made myself eat a granola bar recently. Least bad brand I could find. It took me an hour, a lot of coaxing, and I almost threw up three times.

If I got hungry enough for it, I would genuinely eat paper before eating ham, sausage, corn, or any godforsaken casserole. Again, even if I tried to eat this stuff, it’s not about whether I want to, my body physically rejects it and I’ll just throw up, then I’ll be worse off than I was at the start!

How hungry would you have to be before you’d eat, say… a live worm? Feel it squirm in your mouth and chomp down? That’s how hungry I’d have to be before I could choke down a snickers.

It’s not a choice. I’m not just “picky.” I understand that it’s difficult, frustrating, hard to wrap your head around, but BELIEVE ME, I’m more frustrated than you are. Don’t judge me if I swing by McDonalds before we meet up. I’m not making you eat whatever I eat, all I ask is to be given the same courtesy. Just leave it alone.

Kind of a random hill to die on rn but "You'd eat this thing you hate if you got hungry enough" does not set a reasonable expectation of what "hungry enough" means for people with food problems.

Like, are we talking "stomach grumbling" hungry enough, or "can't stand up" hungry enough? Cause personally, I can make myself eat a bit of a pork chop if I'm barfy and shaking and can't see straight anymore, but if it's down to "black out for three days and wake up angry and confused" or "willingly swallow prosciutto", I'm having sleep for dinner. And I know this from experience.

People without food problems don't seem to understand this and it drives me insane. "Hungry enough" is for shit like chewing drywall because the alternative is death or cannibalism.

If I say I can't eat something, It means I can't eat it. It Is Not Edible To Me. It's not even appetizing. It literally does not register as food. You might as well hand me a rubber duck.

And it's frustrating!! Trust me, I wish I wasn't like this, too!! This isn't a choice!! I know it can be rude!! It's embarassing!! It's complicated and annoying and irrational!! That doesn't fix the problem!!

I just wish people didn't treat this sort of thing as "being picky" or lacking willpower or basic manners or something. I can't make myself eat certain foods the way you probably couldn't cut your own fingers off. Does that make sense? It's not just food. Fuck

Some helpful tumblr jargon/references for our new friends:

Blorbo is a word you might hear a lot. Idk who uses this outside of tumblr, I know some people do, so I’m just gonna leave the urban dictionary definition here and move along.

Again, I think Spiders Georg is pretty well known, but I’m leaving this here anyways because it’s referenced fairly often in the way that the “free real estate” used to be where the guy’s face would just be slapped down somewhere out of context with no words and we’d all know.

Miette is… everything. We have all agreed that cats are little Victorian children. Miette is referenced often too, so… love her.

Ea-Nasir is the weirdest one, and the one it took me the longest to figure out. This is the transcript of a 3800 year old complaint tablet in cuneiform about Ea-Nasir the terrible copper salesman. This is the oldest recorded customer complaint in the world. People quote this one often without directly stating what it is, so if you didn’t know about it, you may not even realize there’s a reference there, or you’d skate on by and ignore it. It’s much funnier when you know the context, so… you’re welcome.

If you have any tumblr questions, ask me, and I’ll answer the best I can. Don’t be scared to ask. You’re welcome here. Hellsite is for everyone.

NO BUT ACTUALLY.

Who thought it was a good idea to make a scrap submarine? Steered by an off brand video game controller??? Have I heard that correctly?????? Who did this?! Why?!

My main question is— did the passengers know that the submarine was poorly made and steered by a video game controller? Did they have opportunity to investigate and do research on the submarine they were about to board? Or were they lied to that it would be completely safe? Because from what I’ve heard, this isn’t the first time this sub has gotten lost, it’s just the worst one, and they didn’t add a tracking device after the first time. If the ridiculously wealthy passengers were not properly informed of the risk, that this thing has gotten lost before and is steered by a video game controller, then I feel very bad for them. I feel bad for any researchers or service workers on board. I don’t particularly feel bad for the idiot that built this poorly, or whoever decided not to put a tracking device on it after the first time it got lost.

I very much hope these people are found, that they survive, and that they’re uninjured. But also, this is absolutely hilarious. A junkyard mistake of a submarine got lost again and now we have to go find it and its rich, rich, rich passengers? Bro. BRO. Of course that happened. In 2023?? Of course!

"A submarine has gone missing" : Oh jeeze, I hope they find those people.

"A submarine visiting the wreck of the titanic has gone missing" : Well, that's a little ghoulish but I can't blame folks for a morbid curiosity, especially at a monument to white man's hubris.

"An experimental cobbled together submarine visiting the wreck of the titanic has gone missing" : Well at this point y'all were just taking your lives into your own hands and also how is 'slapped together submarine' a legal thing that's real.

"An experimental cobbled together submarine full of the absurdly wealthy visiting the wreck of the titanic has gone missing" : Okay now this just feels a little too on point someone has to be joking with me.

NOT TO LIVEBLOG TOH BUT THE SEASON 2 FINALE LITERALLY JUST MADE ME CRY WTF IS THIS

Also idk what’s up with this collector guy but I low key love them? Like, bestie, did you just move the moon with your finger????
