I used to babysit a lot, and I was kind of famous for getting kids to try foods they normally wouldn't. I was never pushy about it, just included them in the shopping/harvesting/cooking process, and asked them to try a little bite of everything, and to remember that your tastebuds change as you age, so keep on trying stuff.

This backfired on me occasionally though. Once as an adventure, we went to a Japanese restaurant, and I ordered the kiddos some Katsu (who doesn't love something fried with dippy sauce), and got myself a plate of sushi rolls and sashimi. Well, since I always asked them to try one bite of something new, they looked at me expectantly, so I let them try a bit of each. Turns out they were all in for sushi, and those little nerds ate most of my plate, and then they always wanted to go. Kids, I don't have sushi money every day!

One of my favorites. It took about a year before I could make sense of what the hummingbirds were doing. And I suppose it took them a year to be completely fearless when I was around. It finally happened. If there’s something you think you can do, you probably can.

Time for bed, where I will continue to not sleep, but horizontally

I would, in fact, give a flying fuck. That seems not bad.

A black and white image of a woman facing the camera with her face towards the camera. She is holding a slightly spinning umbrealla in her left hand. The umbrella has some lights attached to the end which makes some traces that covers most of here face, and the other hand is held behind her as she is leaning against the wall. She is wearing a black sleeveless dress with the skirt just above her knees. She´s got her right leg a bit bent and behind the left one. On the floor next to her on the left lays a matchbox.
A black and white image of a woman facing the camera with her head a bit up and to the left. She is wearing a black sleeveless dress with the skirt just above her knees. She is holding a spinning umbrealla behind her with lights attached to the end that makes some strange patterns on the lower parts and seems to be haning in thin air. The umbrealla is held in her right hand and the other hand is held behind her. She is crossing her legs a bit and her hair is down to her waist. On the floor next to her on the left lays a matchbox.

She is facing the wall and a spinning umbrealla with lights attached to the end, that makes a light pattern that only leaves the upper parts without light. On the floor next to her on the left lays a matchbox.

Had a package delivered by a company called TransForce. By far the best delivery company of all the ones that (attempt to) deliver here. Tracking & updates throughout. I imagine the company consists of a team of really cool trans people with super powers, wearing capes and TF logos on their chests.

Sorry I didn’t come to your orgy. I don’t like having to write that many thank you notes.
