Accessible Microwave and PoP Secret with Pasta on the Stove

I have to admit riding stoned as shit is fun. This is all it takes to make something accessible. Masking tape and a cousin. Three buttons from the bottom is the row where the minute plus button is. Beneath that is the start button. The last row with no tape is the clear stop button. You can count the beeps. Six beeps for microwave popcorn. Because it is Pop-Secret and will not burn, you wait until it has heavily stopped popping. Use your judgment. This is the way you're supposed to pop popcorn anyway. I don't ease timers. I can feel the give of the noodles to know when they are done. Cooking is an art form. Being blind is magical. I live in a completely different world from you. I'm never flooded with light. I don't have images moving in front of my face constantly. I don't see the flood of AI generated images in my feed. I have never used TikTok. Video doesn't mean crap to me usually. I watch old shows because I know what is happening from the audio. King of the Hill. South Park. Weeds. Battlestar Galactica. Sci-fi. Star Trek in particular. I've seen these shows so many times. Over and over. Lost. (which I thought was fantastic) I'm different and don't care who knows it!

If you enjoyed this, share it. Writing stone is as good as smoking weed. It's a dopamine rush. I have noodles in there ready. Getting cold. But trust me I know how to reheat them.
