The feminine urge to say “have you no compassion for my poor nerves” every time something goes wrong with my life
“술버릇이 하나 있어요. 만취하면 무조건 집으로 가는 거죠. 어디서 마셨던 택시 타고 바로 집으로 가거든요. 그리고 집에 들어가서는 자고 있던 가족들을 전부 깨워요. 방에서 나오게 하죠. 그럼 한 명씩 껴안으며 사랑한다고 해요. 그렇게 사랑 고백이 끝나고 아침이 밝아오면 저는 끌어안았던 걸 기억도 못 해요. 필름이 끊긴 거죠. 술기운이었지만 제가 평소에 절대 그렇게 하지 못 하는 사람인 걸 가족들이 알아서 웃으며 그 순간의 저를 받아들이고 같이 끌어 안아줘요. 새벽에 그렇게 포옹할 때면 가족들도 제게 사랑한다 말해요. 포옹을 하며 제가 가족에게 위로를 하고 있었지만 어쩌면 장남이라는 책임감 때문인지 알게 모르게 위로받고 싶었나 봐요. 그렇게 나도 가족들에게 사랑한다고 듣고 싶었다는 걸 알게 되죠.”
“There’s one habit I have when I get drunk. Once I’m completely drunk, no matter what, I always go home. No matter where I drank, I get in a taxi and head straight home. Then when I get there, I wake up everyone in my family and make them come out of their rooms. Then apparently I hug them, one by one, and tell them I love them. I confess my love for them, but when morning breaks I can’t even remember hugging them. My memory gets blacked out. That’s what I do when I’m drunk, but my family knows I’m usually not the type of person to do those kinds of things. So in those moments, they just laugh and accept me, and hug me back. And in the middle of the night when I hug them, my family tells me that they love me, too. My intention in hugging them was to comfort them, but maybe because of the responsibility I felt as the eldest son, without knowing it I think I wanted to be comforted too. That’s how I realized I wanted to hear from my family that they love me.”

I had forgotten for a long time, but being a doctor is such a good profession.
I’ve seen this before, but it’s been years and it just came across my Twitter in its dying days. The words are from a favorite author of mine, Maggie Stiefvater, and they are the words I most need to hear when it comes to dealing with chronic pain and illness. I didn’t need this the first time I saw it, six years ago. I need it now. Maybe you do, too.

This is far funnier than I thought it would be. The lack of context on some of these is both brilliant and making me want to find and watch Tom Scott’s videos.
There’s nothing that prohibits you two from being together anymore.
