    i love people's willingness to get hype over dumb shit.

    I was driving home today and pull up to a light. As i'm slowing down i 👁️👁️ lock 👁️👁️ eyes with the dude in the car next to me. I spring into action, this is the moment I've been waiting for.

    Now, something you must know about me is I drive around with several small plastic 🦀crabs 🦀 on my dashboard, One: for the whimsy of it all and two: on the off chance i encounter another driver who i think could benefit from witnessing them.

    This young gentleman was one such someone.

    As i pull up, as previously stated, our eyes lock and I hold up one☝️ finger☝️

    Perplexed by my unprompted gesticulation, the young man rolls down his window, "what the devil could this perfect stranger be about to tell me?" he might have been thinking.

    I present a singular dashboard crab, green and brown, homely but not without its charm.

    I study his reaction, grinning encouragingly. He's nodding, obviously intrigued by my plasticine crustacean.

    I wag my finger and shake my head, removing the crab from view. Confusion again, but he leans forward, invested. I have him now.

    I grab my second dashboard crab, a rotund white and brown crab, easily the most beautiful of my crabs as it sports large discernible claws of an attractive size and silhouette.

    ✌️ TWO ✌️ i tell him.

    He's cheering now, and rightly so, as these are delightful little beasts that anyone would be happy to encounter. But now comes the clincher, time to seal the deal.

    My finger wags once more. He's awestruck, I have him completely enraptured. If a car had come and smeared us both into the pavement we would not have noticed, so wrapped up in my display were we.

    I bring out my showstopper: a bright pink spider crab with delicately long legs the likes of which had never before nor since been seen in mid afternoon traffic.

    As emphatically as i can express, I display all three of my dashboard crabs to this man, three fingers pressed triumphantly to the glass.

    the guy is losing it in his car, mouth wide in what i assume to be a primal shout of crab derived excitement. His arms are pumping so vigorously its shaking his stationary vehicle.

    We sit there, sharing in a moment of mutual jubilation, and then the light changes, and we move forward in line. He drives off, honking his horn in rapturous exultation,

    and we part ways, exactly the same perhaps but changed nonetheless.

    🦀

    genuinely i can’t find myself able to get mad at immoral/selfish actions taken by kid/teenage characters, especially if the stakes of their situation are high. not only are they Literal Children but they’re forced to bear the weight of the world on their shoulders. they should be more selfish actually. this isn’t their fault. why the fuck aren’t the adults doing anything. why are we mad at the theoretical 14 year old for being selfish and rightfully emotional over having to save the world and not the dozens of adults around them putting this burden on a literal child

    Tuesday March 14.

    National Write Your Story Day.

    Writing is little like running, we once heard, in that it is arduous and effort and hard work and pain and at the end, you finally sit down, and... ahhh. It feelsgood to have run, it feels good to have written. Admittedly this pearl of writing wisdom grated on the first read, as writing wisdom is wont to do. But on reflection, it is not without some merit. Writing is perhaps unique amongst the arts in that the act of doing so is just so strenuous, and such an effort of the will, and that time spent writing is marked more often by the time spent not writing. This is time spent looking out the window, making teas, and browsing the internet. Well, #writerblr, today is your un/lucky day (delete as appropriate) because today just so happens to be March 14, 2023: National Write Your Story Day!

    And where better place to start than here on Tumblr? Or at#writerblr, to be precise. There is a community of thousands who, like you, are enraptured with the gift that is creating a story. It is a community awash with writing prompts, short stories, analysis and discourse, and some unique perspectives to help you engage with that most elusive of activities: storytelling. If nothing else, there's a mass of fellow writers in whom to find solidarity in procrastination.  

    You're a writer, so get writing. Love Tumblr x

    pyrotechnics84

    What is a dream but a canvas of the imagination. paint little one. Its what you were born to do.

    friendly reminder that you are safe if you choose not to reblog posts threatening ‘x’ bad thing will happen if you don't. i know that it can be anxiety inducing, especially to those struggling with intrusive thoughts. i promise you that you are safe love. if u needed a sign to believe that you and you're loved ones are safe, here u go. ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ > this bear is protecting you rn ♡

    Opportunity was supposed to run for 90 days, but it ran for 15 years. Is this… is this the origin of Robot Hanukkah?

    wetwareproblem

    If it wasn’t before, you can bet your ass it is now. Thank you so much for tagging me in this.

    khrysoprase

    Happy Robonukkah everybody!

    wetwareproblem

    Okay, so is this another weeklong thing? What will the traditional foods and observances be?

    khrysoprase

    Iron-rich foods to represent the metal in Oppy’s body. Challah, a symbol of the working class (at least it was in my dad’s Jewish community growing up, IDK about the rest of the world) is had with each meal.

    You light a pillar candle to represent the fire used in constructing Opportunity and thank God for the fire of creation, for creating the sun which gives light and warmth to the universe and thus allows life to flourish, and the light and all that represents. It’s a pillar candle because those are absurdly long lasting, as was Oppy.

    At the annual Robonukkah family dinner you and your family talk about times you thought you couldn’t go on but did, in spite of how hard it was, and meditate on what got you through that, how to better support each other, etc.

    In remembrance of Oppy’s death just before Valentine’s Day, a day of chocolate, the children are given gelt that was put in the fridge (representing the cold vacuum of space) during Hanukkah Proper ™.

    But the truest observance is the intra-community argument about whether it’s Robonukkah or Robanukkah.

    wetwareproblem

    Holy shit, I was half-joking but this is so beautiful I’m genuinely tearing up and I will be very upset if we don’t make this a thing.

    khrysoprase

    90, the original number of days Oppy was supposed to live, divided by 15, the number of years Oppy did, is 6.

    Robonukkah is therefore six days long, which is a holy number also representing how God rested at the end of six days of work, thus showing the connection between the divine and creation is not as far apart as one might think.
