me: okay brain, you can do it, generate some good story ideas for me

my brain: courage the cowardly dog goes to therapy and has to re-live all of his experiences from the show

me: ಠ_ಠ
my brain: okay fine what if he took ayahuasca instead

me: hmm alright i'm letting you off this time
tbc 1) i actually kinda like this idea and 2) obviously it doesn't work if you ask for "good story ideas," you just ask for and get story ideas and some of them are just going to be cringe or insane, blah blah etc etc read impro

goku the therapist walks into his office. "what's on your mind this week, courage?"

courage looks sad. "i just don't know how we're ever gonna have time to get through everything! i've been through *a lot*!"

goku smiles. "have i ever told you about the hyperbolic time chamber?"
also @nuanceexists linked me to these comics where bart simpson and chris griffin go to therapy and they're amazing

some slightly cryptic thoughts about time travel i'm not gonna elaborate on for now:
time travel to the past is about memory and time travel to the future is about imagination. they're parallel because memory and imagination are the same process
time traveling to the past to change it is about memory reconsolidation

here's another video of a bunch of birds i saw today. my high school gf and i broke up in this park and i never saw her again
oh shit there's a chance she still lives around here
yeah you could say i'm a birdwatcher. i make little watches for birds and i try to put them on the birds i find. it's really hard i don't know how anyone else does it. i've only done it once so far and the bird was injured. like really injured. i think it was dead

one of my longstanding interests i don't really talk about because it's very rude is "nerd theory," in the sense of having a theory of nerds: why do nerds have that voice? why don't nerds like sports? why do nerds have bad posture? why do nerds *look younger*?
anyway i have a rough draft of a theory now, the one-sentence summary is not that complicated it turns out:

a nerd is a person who is tense all the time
holding chronic tension in the body produces nerd voice, nerd face, makes posture bad, and makes physical activity subtly painful and unpleasant, hence avoiding sports

guys can we talk about this completely insane thread where oxytocin nasal spray apparently makes an autistic guy not autistic temporarily? i'm gonna be fucked up about this for days
look at this fucking shit. just this whole paragraph about him having sex with his wife

"I noticed my son's aspergers bigly today. I keep looking at him when I talk to him and he's like "what" and I'm like "what what" and it's really awkward. I can see what NTs see when they talk to us."

the oxytocin *opens up a new way of seeing*

when i’m in a good mood i find extremely dumb things funny, like just repeating the word “bnuuy” to myself (it’s still funny i just checked). also recently i’ve found myself doing silly voices or straight up quoting lines from old cartoons. yesterday it was “return the slab”
i would like to get really good at impressions i think. i probably won’t put in the time but it would be nice to have
this shit is just permanently seared into my mind might as well use it i guess
