Oh. […] You’re out? At 1 AM on a Wednesday? […] Say hey to Taby for me
Just doomscrolling. Sometimes my brain thinks I’m on a 24hr shift when I’m not. But I just took a hit of the good shit (herbal tea with the sleepy bear in pajamas on the box), so hopefully I’ll pass out soon. Honestly I thought you were asleep and you’d see this in the morning.
We’re taking shifts watching the mole pups, just in case they suddenly develop latent liminality. I won’t be back until a little after 3. I’m not gonna lie, I can’t wait to get rid of these guys.
Are you more of a honk-shooer or a honk-mimimimi kinda guy?
OH Oh wow, that's a lot of staying up when you're already tired. I'll wait up for you.
It's all about the honk-shoo. You need to be assertive when you sleep. Really expel that carbon dioxide. But if you're on the honk-mimimimi side of things, I respect that.
Wait up for me?You don’t have to doDo you want to come ov I figured my sleep schedule was already all out of whack, I might as well spare somebody else the hassle. […] You talk a big game for someone who just drank a steaming hot mug of sleepy time tea.
Breaking News: Atmospheric CO2 levels tick up to 422 ppm. Local Sleepy Guy Apologizes.
I don’t know if I’m a shooer or a mimimier. You’ll have to let me know.
Mr. Sleepytime Bear is going to make me use the bathroom in a few hours anyway, so I might as well stay up. I just feel drowsy but not actually capable of sleeping. [...] Are moles nocturnal?
And yes. It's been me this whole time. I'm climate change. I've just been waiting for you to figure it out.
If you're snoring, it's not very loud. You seem to have a very healthy soft palate.
I’m not going to turn down the free entertainment, but I won’t be offended if you nod off. Nah, they’re crepuscular.
Man, what a doozy that would be. If you found out that I was singularly responsible for climate change, would you kill me? I would kill you. So, you don’t have to feel bad. You can answer honestly.
I've decided I'm going to use this time to clean my stovetop.
Wow, you really went right for it lmfao. I actually wouldn't kill you, believe it or not. Maybe if Thomas Midgley Jr. was somehow raised from the dead, because being responsible for leaded gasoline and CFCs is a wild amount of evil culpability to hold, but even then I'm not sure. Thinking about hurting people makes me feel weird. I'm kind of a weakass.
That’s a very thoughtful answer and I think it’s probably a good thing that hurting people makes you feel weird lol. I’d kill Thomas Midgley Jr. too, but only because I’ve always thought I could outsmart the butterfly effect.
My nonexistent dating profile? You really think that would work on all the nonexistent honeys I’m trying to non-pull?
If you linked up with Alice Hamilton, one of the most important industrial hygienists of our time and a personal hero of mine, I think you could have gotten away with it. Our refrigerators would still be literal boxes of ice but that’s chill. Lol.
That would have worked on me lol. Suggesting “I bite”??? HUGE red flag, one of the biggest. But tbh I think you’re out here no-scoping hunnies left and right, whether you’re intending to or not.
I like talking to you because I learn things. Listen to this: “ When the Woman's Medical School closed in 1902, Hamilton took a position as bacteriologist with the Memorial Institute for Infectious Diseases, working with Ludvig Hektoen.[17][29] During this time, she also formed a friendship with bacteriologist Ruth Tunnicliffe.[30]” Ever read something and just thought to yourself ‘Happy pride 🌈’?
Hmm 🤔🧐[…] Did you ever play that game, Myst? Trying to figure out what you’re into is like playing that game. Anyway, I don’t know what no-scoping entails?
Happy Pride to my girl Alice. See, if you went back in time to kill Thomas Midgley Jr, you, Alice, and Ruth could have had a righteous murder throuple. You'd be the chemist in the mix.
Funny you mention Myst. One of my uncles gave me Myst III for Christmas one year because he thought it'd make me smart. I never got past the first level because I didn't know what the hell was going on. [...] You can also just ask, I guess. Since you gave me Jeremy Hyslop. Although kind of a weird thing to answer when I'm scrubbing in between the burners on my stove.
And no-scoping is shooter video game slang. I don't play but a lot of my friends in undergrad were big into Call of Duty. No-scoping in a dating context means you pull effortlessly. Like you don't need a scope to make the shot. I say this because earlier Taby wanted to know what you're into so she could buy you a present (is what she said).
You know, it's easier to say what I'm not into lol. Blond(e)s, people who are super-shredded... And obviously I wouldn't be into someone without a sense of humor, but everybody says that.
[...] I guess [...] people I can't easily understand? Is that weird to say? I know I jump to conclusions a lot but for most of my life, I've been right about guessing what other people are thinking, what they want, or why they're acting a certain way. Even before my powers, I think I had sort of an advanced, superfast 눈치. So when I can't immediately clock someone or write them off as this or that, I think that's interesting. [...] And problem-solvers. I brute force things a lot, like intellectually speaking, and I do things without taking the time to think the issue through. So when people can hold a problem in their head and really work through it, I think that's impressive in like a turn-on sort of way. [...] And dark hair.
I give you a sincere answer to the extent I’m essentially mentally naked and you Twilight me? If your goal was to ensure I never looked you in the eye again, congratulations.
[…] I do […] but this was like getting dropkicked into a glacial lake. Like I’m in permanent unserious guy status now. […] But actually maybe I needed that. Now I can wear my little jester hat without issue. 🤡
Anyway, to go back to what we were talking about before, you’re on Taby’s top ten hottest people list. So maybe it’s not baseball to the headitis.
And not particularly difficult? Double ow. I didn’t make the list. Jesus. I didn’t realize I signed up for a feelings an ego excoriation when I said I’d wait up for you.
