him, reading about the correct height to hang wall art, after years and years of me telling him he hangs things too high: :O
so funny watching my husband learn basic interior design principles. i think he thought i was crazy for years and now he's learning there's a reason i'm particular about throw blanket textures and light bulb temperatures
but when will @ellipsus.com allow me to assign different themes to different documents
Pete Hegseth's "Department of War" spent $7.4 million on lobster tails, more than $15 million on ribeye steaks, and hundreds of thousands on doughnuts...in September.

also my personal rule is to only price negotiate if they've already lowered the price at least once (which fb will show). YMMV on this but because i only message when i really for sure want something, i don't want to risk offending them. i also only go for things that seem like good deals already
this is how you beat other interested parties, because selling anything on FB SUUUUUCKS, everyone is flaky and illiterate and the back and forth is a huge logistical drain. and always offer cash unless they specifically request otherwise, because venmo scams targeting sellers are super common
my hot tip for fb marketplace antiques is that you need to decide whether you want it or not for sure before you message. no "still available?" no "whats the condition?" no "can i come see it?". only "i can pay cash, what time tonight can i pick it up?" make it SO easy for them to sell it to you
Cosmically, there is something very darkly funny about spending an entire decade of American politics obsessed with repudiating the mistakes of the Iraq War, and then immediately doing it again at the first opportunity, but with even less justification, planning, strategy, or foresight.
we put my husband on prozac about a month ago and it’s turned him into the home improvement tasmanian devil (positive). this man taught himself basic electrical work last weekend ??
alright having read mistborn and decided that it's Not For Me, i do have one single brandon sanderson opinion and it's that even post-glowup, Vin should look like a slightly unhinged rat girl. if you give her instagram face i will put you in prison
Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs
i spent a lot of breath back in 2017-2020 talking about how you can clearly see this IN HER ACTUAL WORK because deeply personal wish fulfillment fantasy writing is innately INCREDIBLY revealing of an artist's beliefs and values
people on tumblr talking about how [AUTHOR]'s high-profile interview makes her seem self-centered, anti-intellectual, and disdainful of the craft of writing: are you new here
i wish
casting agent told me recently that i have "powerful eyes" and it's like why tf am i spending time photoshopping marketing emails when i could be doing things with my POWERFUL EYES
and you get lots of compliments about how pretty you are and stupid stuff like "wow you're really good at holding that sandwich still" and it's like I KNOW, THIS SKILL WENT SO UNAPPRECIATED IN MY CORPORATE JOB
acting/ modeling has a truly endless number of downsides but it does in fact feel every bit as chic and cool as you'd imagine to show up on a set and be referred to as "the talent" and say things like "you'll have to talk to my agent"
“Let your character be changed by the other characters and the world” is really what makes ttrpgs fun for me. When someone’s character brushes everything off it’s a bit disappointing - when they react and are affected, it’s electric!!
This includes npcs too ofc. Love having players change my npcs
THIS IS THE BIG BRAIN THINKING I LIKE TO SEE AROUND HERE
Quick question does anyone know how to restore virtue to a decaying society
anyway. fated mates world scorned au bale and aradia are absolutely mates but breach and aradia don’t care lol theyre gonna do some soul bond shit that supercedes it
i actually don't hate a fated mates trope! but if you lean on it in a major way and make it a known entity, then you need to treat it like any other major element of your worldbuilding and define it + have rules before you break them
it's maas discourse hour o'clock and i think it's weak shit to do fated mates trope and be like 'when the sexy leads have the bond then it means they're perfect destined soulmates. but also sometimes the bond is wrong and means nothing'
NEW HEADSHOTS DROPPED
self taping is a humiliation ritual, but then so are in-person auditions. i have to do a full face of makeup for 40 seconds of performing either way.
I broke out my finest goth girl wear (the wet seal 2013 zipper corset) because I needed everyone at the phantom of the opera north american tour to know this is my native habitat
MARIN AND KITRO 5EVER..... him mistaking her for his goddess when they first met to BECOMING HIS GODDESS as an arc is CRAZY WORK!!!!!!!
anyway we got confirmation that one of the goddesses in Unearthed Remnants is my old PC from a prior campaign and the only one who can summon her is her husband who's now 4000 years old and stays alive to be their people's point of contact with her. so obviously i feel normal about that
"anthony was an asshole" have you met anthony. did you watch season 2. kate didn't fix him she matched his freak
really impossible to overstate how fucked this country is
