making the best of my time), but I crave the stakes of old Resident Evil checkpoints and being thrown back to restrategize.

I wonder if this is a newer feeling, bc we’re constantly bogged down with the idea of optimizing our time and the things we could be doing instead. To compare 2 Capcom games, I’m bummed that Ace Attorney lets me save and go back to every decision if I mess up. I DO it (I’m only human and…

Warped Tour lineups and UK-based Rock Sound covers from the era would probably have a wealth of ideas!

Hi! As a peak emo girlie in those times, I think Colin would front with liking hardcore bands but really be a total softie for FOB, Blink’s self-titled, Motion City Soundtrack, and Jack’s Mannequin (all from CD mixes Pen burned for him obv).

I generally agree, BUT if we all go up in nuclear flames before Square Enix gives us the opulent 2D-HD Chrono Trigger remake we deserve, I'm gonna hassle their executives forever in the afterlife

Headline from The Conversation: More people are considering Al lovers, and we shouldn't judge

I actually can and will judge people who are using environmentally devastating technology built on mass theft to create a fictional partner who does nothing but tell how great they are.

The first boy I ever kissed is outside digging a ditch while I drone through writing about catnip and mechanized fish. We’re perfect strangers now. It sits blandly with none of the poetic juice I yearned for.

SHE'S BACK

This is my karma for starting an incredible 300k word fic last night that had me up til 4. I don't NEED sleep, I need more fic

I will be a semicolon queen, ampersand advocate and em dash enthusiast until the day I die just use them correctly ffs

Never saying haha or lol in a text is a savage rejection of the millennial disposition. A major power move.

DNR, but please whip out your phone and play the version of Zelda’s Lullaby from the ending of OoT.

I tried to read Peneloise once and got too stressed about what Colin might be up to.

Shout out to Quizilla and Xanga 👵

Keep Marlboro Man and Stinky platonic besties, we’re all drunk on workplace will they/won’t theys

If phone great spy, why no listen when I shout “I do NOT ship Ted & Rebecca”???

go to college. stan bureaucrats. read papers. look at the moon. find the source of a river. drink tea while looking out the window. stretch. doodle. go for a walk. believe in yourself. take your life reasonably seriously.

I need the day off. I want to nap in the sunshine on my couch like a puppy

If you don't like it, don't read it. Next question.

Me thinking about writing fiction while writing copy vs actually writing fiction

Idk, there's something about owning an oversized shirt that looks like it could belong to your man, but then babyboy comes over and borrows it from you instead 😛

Yeah yeah, there’s plenty of benefits to my workout routine, but what I’m really looking forward to is getting closer and closer to the look of God’s greatest creation: the pretzel.

I love seeing new photos of my favorite celebs ((that they consented to))

I'd like to give you these words that I so desperately needed to hear. You didn't have them, then. I can't make you use them, I can't make them hold the same meaning, but I can tuck them in your toolbox and make peace with the love that goes with them.

I’ll be stuck here until the winter thaw, i fear 🩵

Feel like there are fewer and fewer days when fruit -doesn’t- make my mouth itch. Why am I being punished for choosing a real banana over Runts?

Those few days in winter when it’s in the 40s and you can air the house out 😌

The absence of discomfort is not the answer. It's knowing how to stand in a room with it and decide whether you can learn from it or leave it.

Idk who I'm giving advice to here. I guess maybe me. Once again, the black-and-white thinking is a trap disguised as protection.

And, psst—you're not settling. They're not "kind of a shitty friend". Friends come in a lot of flavors. You know how good sweet can be one day and savory the next. And you know you don't crave every flavor all the time.
