I guess this is just a subset of my larger complaint about people routinely making food the focal point of gatherings, discussions, celebrations, etc. Please just let me see my friends without having to repeatedly explain why I'm not eating.

It's difficult to explain to people why I let a thing I do as a volunteer on weekends in the summer inform so much of my life planning, but I have dedicated so much time, effort, and money to my reenactment group. I don't want to leave it, and I'm sad I might have to.
Starting @beatonna's "Ducks" the day I got rejected for my ideal job sure is an experience. And reading her convo with her parents in the first few pages felt so familiar. I have had so many iterations of the "I don't want to be a teacher" conversation.

Educator? Very much yes. Classroom teacher? No.
Oh boy, a trailer for another movie about Old Hollywood. How exciting.
Chapter heading in a sixteenth-century treatise on warfare: "Diverse manners of dividing booties" Me: "Hehehehe..."
With every new Star Trek episode, I live in fear that this is the one where they will do more Mirror Universe shenanigans.
"Maybe the Smithsonian is hiring!" Cool. Great idea. Thanks. I'll just go check in at the Smithsonian.
