Bianca ⚔️🍉

I got to focus on my next job this week and it was such a delight. Getting to work on costumes has been such a dream and I’m just really thankful for every single person who supported this journey, encouraged the chaos and just overall cheered me on in this life pivot. 💗

Awww thank you! Yes, I started the bracket but am so happy @allieiswriting.bsky.social was down to take it over and grown it into the incredible event it is now. 💗

An Austen adaptation final round would be WILD.

I rec witch hat atelier to parents looking for something Harry Potter-ish that isn’t HP. that core feeling of feeling alone and wishing to be swept up in a world where you are special is there — but the answer is working at what moves you, not being a chosen one

May it qualify for a future RomComBracket spot

Nissan El Gabe: “bro had a limited edition Howard Hughes tomagatchi and deadass left it in a sewer.”

Fallout show fans have some of the best edits and commentary I stg.

I just saw a comment about the finale of season two that says, “bro had a limited edition Howard Hughes tomagatchi and deadass left it in a sewer.”

Excuse me, this is extremely accurate and also hilarious.

Seriously! Ours woke me up at 2 am and I couldn’t go back to sleep

L.A. TACO Investigative Journalism Fund By L.A. TACO

French Kiss forever!

We’ve made it to Round 3 and I’ve really tested the bounds of Buffer’s free account level

I very much was thinking of "military industrial complex" when looking at Barsha Corp. As I said on a recent interview, Barsha Corp is so high above the law that there is no morality, only transactions (the underworld is the inverse, the same thing but below the law)

Probate has been a lot, but getting to go through our life together, one photos, one letter, one record at a time… it’s honestly healing. I miss her, but I am so thankful to have had the love and care I did from Mimi. 💗

This and the incident where they arrested staff at a Mexican restaurant, but only after letting said staff first serve them a meal are just diabolical. They’re assaults on basic humanity and decency. Publicize the hell out of this stuff. Let Republicans try to defend it.

Two Taming of the Shrews against each other. That's freakin cute.

College journalism programs failed us by not warning us of the fights we’d have to have in newsrooms. How we’d always have to be the ones asking about bias toward power, how we’d be asking for better community-centered coverage and how we’d ask for respect internally (and get none).

There’s nothing like a rainy walk with someone you love and a hot chai.

I feel like half of them would be appalled and half would be thrilled they could pay some bills finally.

Hahaha happy to please!

Anyway I found two pristine vintage Samsonite suitcases WITH THE KEYS

And some holographic roller skates that are going to 100% result in me falling on my ass but I’m ok with it!!

I truly love that I can thrift for work because it means showing people that it’s possible to shop for costumes outside of Amazon AND I find some gems for meeee.

Oh yes what a perfect matchup
