Honestly I’m jealous because 3 adults, 5 glasses of hard liquor, and 3 Tarot decks all vying for Best Genitals sounds like my kind of quarantine. If you tell me y'all’re also talking shit about Classic Literature I will be forced to cry in earnest.

We sometimes talk about classic literature– I majored in English, and MathMom backed up her engineering degree with a literature minor, and Dr. Friend took a few literature classes during his bio undergrad, but instead I think we were talking about science fiction television and the concept of the SCA. 

At one point we were joking about something, and Dr. Friend typed “how much drugs cost” into Google, and Google really helpfully popped up a serious-looking stock photo of a lady and offered to help him with his drug addiction, which was actively hilarious.

We do have a lovely time, but the problem is that we needed to sleep and didn’t, so. It’s a mixed bag.

A) Homeschooling their animals is adorable B) I don’t think you’re “giving away too much”. When the patterns make sense, she’ll learn them.

That’s my hope– I’m just trying not to train her to bat her eyelashes at me to get answers instead of figuring them out, when she’s capable of figuring them out. But I also feel like there is literally zero point in pushing her to the point of tears to answer questions I know she can answer, because she probably has valid reasons for not feeling like she can answer them even if she’s got the requisite knowledge? All of her issues, like when she decides to be upset about something– it’s incredibly annoying when she pitches a fit for the sake of pitching a fit, but obviously she’s feeling some need to do this, and getting mad at her for doing it is not going to address her need to do it and is only probably going to make the problem worse. So who knows. It might be more important for her to determine that I’ll give her answers when I think she needs them rather than for her to drastically improve her reading skills.

Ik, but now you need to name specific decks please.

IDK the names. Mine, at the top, is the Albano-Waite deck, which is an acid-addled 70s recolor of the classic Rider-Waite. The middle one is the Marselleise or however the fuck you spell that. And the bottom is some modern mini deck whose name I don’t know but I know it came from Amazon. 

[image description: the major arcana of three different decks arranged in numerical order because we were trying to figure out the Old French titles on the middle deck.]
