My grandfather died and I inherited some of his belongings.
He was a farmer and he loved getting dressed up every year for the local fair and exhibiting his prize chickens.
For this occasion, my grandmother would spend the entire year searching through thrift shops looking for silly neckties for him to wear, and she loved finding ones with chickens on them.
After a few decades of this, my grandfather had amassed several dozen neckties, each one with cartoonish images of chickens flying around, laying eggs, and doing other chicken things. I always complimented him on the newest addition to his collection.
When he died a couple of years ago, he bequeathed them to me in his will. When my grandmother handed me the bag full of them, my eyes welled with tears and I smiled thinking about my grandfather looking in the mirror and straightening his tie.
Why am I telling you all of this back story? Because the last time I tried to tell this to someone and I didn’t give context, they thought it was weird that I was so excited about inheriting my dead grandfather’s hen tie collection.

Can’t believe the government has successfully conned the masses into thinking staying at home, with no plans to vigilantly test the masses or improve the NHS infrastructure is the way to curb this pandemic. just gonna fuck the economy up for no reason. Yikes

another day, another awkward encounter with my housemate's bf in our kitchen while i try to make breakfast
Is this normal behavior? My boyfriend and his friends send dick pics to each other
(Anonymous) 2020-03-21 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)My boyfriend and I have an open phone policy before I get ripped to shreds for looking at his messages. I saw in his guys group chat, all the guys sent dick pics (including my boyfriend) and they were just critiquing them and saying who had the best one. Kind of reminiscent of little kids comparing penises at the playground. Isn’t this like, not normal? I don’t send my friends vagina pics and ask who has the best one
i don't mind tipping and delivery fees but i will never use delivery services bc they jack up the prices in addition to the fees

i know it's grief and all that but it's so deeply irritating when patients families say someone in critical care is getting better because they "decided to fight" their condition. as if the patients who die just ~gave up~ rme
yeah i get you nona, i hold my tongue obv bc i understand their position but i just think theres a troubling underlying attitude there
all day i go from thinking coronavirus can’t hurt me to regretting everything i’ve inhaled into my lungs and every gym session i have missed. this pandemic is god testing us i’m convinced
i cooked all three pieces of naan bc they're amazingly frostbitten and i figured only pieces would be salvageable

this youtube video on banned yugioh cards has the most disturbing background music. what the hells with this piano? did someone actually get sent to the shadow realm or something?
welp guess i’m going on a tolerance break soon
it annoys me when ~vegan gurus~ encourage ppl to use no oil (and sometimes even no salt)
oil and salt are such easy ways to make your food tastier and more filling. ppl are already giving up their favorite foods when they decide to go vegan, so can they at least eat food that isnt bland af

i love when unnaturalvegan gets on peoples cases for being oil-free and salt-free
a guy i used to know has multiple accounts he uses to post on the local reddit i'm i'm this close to making an account to gently dox him into shutting the fuck up with his reactionary bullshit

Some farmers in Bangladesh have switched to raising ducks instead of chickens, because during catastrophic floods, ducks float.
