I do not "consume". I am not a "consumer".

I ABSORB.

The ideas I am exposed to make me a richer; stronger; kinder person.

I just broke up with @0xabad1dea . you probably won't set me around here any more.
This is the hardest evening of my life.
Goodbye.

@looneysquash seriously, this cutlery drawer has no teaspoons, and no place _for_ teaspoons.
There aren't any dessert spoons either.

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

@0xabad1dea @elad3 it's the tea. I'm not sure how to talk about tea without british grammar 😅

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

@i_renton I can only assume coffee machines. Or diners.

@kanojo_no_yume I might not recognise the icon and the handle, but I can definitely recognise _you_.

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

@elad3 yeah now you mention it I suppose this IS Boston.

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

My god. Not only aren't there any teaspoons, there isn't even a place in the cutlery tray FOR teaspoons.

This is like a parallel dimension.

@elad3 oops, meant to say kettles *are* an uncommon household thing here.

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

@elad3 because "why would we have any tea? Who keeps tea in a house?"

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

@elad3 the last time I was here, Melissa joked at me "oh I'm sorry, we don't have any tea in", and was confused when I accepted the apology

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

@elad3 kettles aren't an uncommon household thing here. They don't seem to make tea, like, at all?

They all have coffee machines maybe?

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

Woke up super early due to jet lag, feeling very dehydrated, brought tea with me b/c america, but didn't think to bring kettle. >_<

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

@0xabad1dea the house doesn't matter, you do.

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

@apiary @0xabad1dea I don't know how able she feels, but I would love to.

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

@Xaosopher I feel like a guttering candle in a room full of grues right now. Being bright is my only choice.

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

On the plane. I'm actually going :o

This is still surprising, I only decided 4 days ago. I miss her very much.

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

made it into the airport and through security. Boarding start in 15 mins 😅

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

I'm heading to the airport to go spend a week with @0xabad1dea in Boston.

It's all very sudden, and I'm a little scared, but also.. excited

[badidea 🪐 @0xabad1dea]

This is an exciting summer for someone who doesn't leave the house; @Eldritchreality is going to be here this Friday 🎆

[What's in a name? @Eldritchreality]

@i_renton fwiw I explained it to Mark over dinner last week and he said my explanation was very _you_.
