OMG Lord (and/or Who/Whatever) preserve me from more shows for the children
Another hour in *hell*
Why would anyone think because it’s for the children it can be unimaginative, illogical and mindlessly stupid?
I guess it was supposed to be “poetic”
It wasn’t
First thing, a candle in the middle is a bad idea. Tho it “only took” half an hour for the storyteller to realise it was tricky for kids to touch her poster as requested right behind the lit candle without burning alive.
Oh, and the story…
“The Universe is like you kids: It has two eyes, a nose, a mouth, ears, two hands & a heart. It also has special powers. It can close its eyes! Can you close your eyes like the Universe so you’re in the dark like it is?”
My future scientist 9 yrs old: “Wot?”
“Now I’m gonna tell you how the Universe was created. All the particles started laughing, so the Universe got really mad & started crying. Then it got even madder & thunder created sparkles. Thus it’s anger created a beautiful thing.”
My 9 yrs old: “That’s so *not* what happened”
At one point the kids got to blow on confetti. That they liked. Classic pandemic fun.
Then they got to put ink on their fingers to decorate the Universe’s face. Actual f*cking ink.
Gee thanks.
I mean even that 👇 was less worse.
To the least they didn’t try to choke us all with strawberry spray so we could “smell like the Universe does”
Unfortunately, like the Universe, we had no legs.
No way to run away.
My question is: Should I trust the negative result?
I mean I had Covid already and what I have now is not "psychological"
My kid's fever and diarrhea is not "psychological" either
And the sampling time was 2 sec, not 5, without rotation
(I'm in for another test am I?)
“The reason you’re foggy is your brain micro-clotting and bleeding” maybe wasn’t the positive thought I’d wish for to start the week
Oh also “could be” therapy cannot fix that long-term effect
FTR it is extremely fun to try to book tests when the sick mum of the sick child/exposure forgot to tell track&trace about us, & I have only cash that I’d rather keep for food (tho isolated me can’t go get it 🤔) so I’d rather not pay for said tests nor drive Covid family around
For the tests to be free I need a doctor prescription -who won’t see us as there are too many of us -but I can’t leave alone my 9 yrs old and 5 yrs old either -so I ended up getting a phone appointment &should get a call to see if a nurse could come to do the tests &my head hurts
I mean I already have the focus ability of a drunk C. elegans today
(Fun fact: The Caenorhabditis elegans is a 1 mm long nematode that has the smallest brain of all animals)
(And no I'm not drunk, but there's good chances I'm in for round II of Covid -being drunk is more fun)
That does not impair my ability to lose time on this website but definitively stall my translation ability
I mean it's the simplest text in the world and I'm like: "What are words"
