Whyyy Is Any Attempt At Being Productive Like An Endlessly Dragging Negotiation With A Kindergardener

whyyy is any attempt at being productive like an endlessly dragging negotiation with a kindergardener like okay buddy we'll go to the library and put the phone in the locker okay? Yes you can scroll tumblr later okay. Yes you can watch that mildly interesting two hour long video later, now it's time to do the thing that you actually deeply care about and want to do. No it's not boring, remember, you wanted to do this, you were excited for it? Yes I know thinking about it is more fun than doing it but I promise once you do it it'll be very satisfying. I know it's already the afternoon but there's still many hours in the day so it's not wasted yet, we can still do things. No don't grab your phone again. Yes, you can have a snack too. Come on now please.

I mean I know why, it's the ADHD, but still you'd think I'd get better at this eventually

@zutaraweek day 1: tradition

i liked the idea of tradition by the way of ‘in the tradition of a specific artist’ and landed on magritte. the most direct inspirations were two of his paintings, 16th September and the Banquet (non animated version will be up later!)

I First Saw The Girl At The Hob When She Was Just A Baby. Burdock Was So Proud Of Her, He Toted Her Around

I first saw the girl at the Hob when she was just a baby. Burdock was so proud of her, he toted her around everywhere. After he died in that mine explosion, she started coming alone, trading the odd squirrel or rabbit. Tough and smart, her hair in two braids then, reminding me for all the world of Louella McCoy, my sweetheart of old. And after she volunteered for the Games, that nickname couldn't help but slip out.
