"General! our forces are overrun! We can't beat the aliens!"
* grim sigh *
"So..."
* A wizened figure ambles over to a shelf. *
"...it's come to this. I was hoping it wouldn't."
* confused voice *
"General?"
* the figure dusts a sealed tome pulled from the shelf *
"This can help us win the war."
"Win the war? Why now?!"
"You see, child, some things are better left sealed. Alas."
* eager steps appoach the old duo, and young eyes catch glittering letters *
"Tactics of the Emu War"

@kimdanes it's weirdly satisfying when a haphazard solution works well

That feel when tea making is muscle memory and your body auto-pilots to brewing when you're not manually controlling it.

Where's my hairband?!

Oh.

Of course, one could pose the question and hope for the best. Deal with any misunderstandings a they come. Perhaps you'll get lucky. And you'll avoid looking like a dweeb.

That feel when asking someone what ought to be an otherwise straightforward question ~isn't~ due to heaps of unspoken cultural assumptions that poison the well.

So, before you can even pose the question you have to unpack all this ~bullshit~ from society at large.

And the cognitive load/effort to do so is just... too draining... so you just... ~don't~.
