That was absolutely my response when I opened the bag of Cheetos and was confronted by the smell of the Cheetos combining with the smell of the lipgloss.
YES THIS
You can also teach yourself to play an instrument
Watch a movie
Sew a quilt
Paint
Draw
do a crossword puzzle
lay on your back contemplating the ephemeral nature of being alive.

Take a walk
I was not prepared for the taste sensation of eating Cheetos while wearing watermelon lemonade flavored/scented gloss. The high shine is not worth this horror.
Y’all are so good at this!!!
Yall, I am good at historical names for characters but now I need a sort of…retro space futurism name for a woman and I am coming up blank.
Name this character for me, please! She’s a space ship ghost!
She's right, I remember that from my college physics class.
everything is hard & awful.
I'm doing a give away.
I can't take this shit.
I can't do much.
Have some sparkle.
Respond to this post before Saturday, March 7 & have an opportunity for a random drawing for 6 holographic or chameleon watercolor glitter paints of your choice.
Mats, this is so cool!!!!!
HELL YES SO EXCITED FOR THIS!
The identification of a 'smiling' object found on Holy Island in Northumberland has been confirmed by BGS senior paleontologist Jan Hennissen.

BTW if you ever wanna commission an artist you don't have to have OC's or fandom characters- you can literally just be like "dang I'd like to have some more lesbian art exist" or "wow it would be real nice to see some trans rep in my culture" or "wouldn't a yellow centric painting look nice here"
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
If you didn’t see this last night - @megelison.bsky.social and I carried on about fashion in speculative fiction!
This is the good shit.
Where is the security officer who is constantly getting written up for dress code violations because they CANNOT maintain the boring haircut and don't want their piercings to close over???????
I am here for fat goth loli Klingons!
If you have enjoyed @megelison.bsky.social and I egging each other on about fashion in speculative fiction, tell us - give us a your fave fashion to discuss!
And we think you'll enjoy What Elegant Stars: Queer Tales Of Impossible Style. Read and back it:

The future is a big place. Fit more kinds of bodies in it.
More bodies and more fashions!
Honestly, this is just me challenging all of the writers here to get on it when it comes to the clothes your space future people wear. Space Opera as a genre can handle it, I promise. Especially if those clothes communicate important things to us as readers.
Pals, you should buy Theo's coloring book just in general.
And if you do and then you color me in, post a pic and tag me!
I promise I won't go mad with power. #fatvanity
What this brings us to is that space future fashion is best when it is distinct and bold and BRAVE. It's so powerful when leveraged as a tool to show us or at least gesture at the expansiveness of the imagined world we are being invited to inhabit. Too often it reveals limitations of imagination.
Wearing a jacket I made and RIDING A ROBOT PEGASUS.
The experience definitely healed me at least as much as thirty years of therapy.
TRULY.
And the variety of the costumes really conveys the variety of cultures contained in Wakanda. (Shout out to Winston Duke's thighs, man - M'Baku was a star.)
I love the LoTR costumes but the world of men sure all wears variations on the same thing in a lot of ways.
Also also, I'm in this coloring book and being in a coloring book full of space future fat people is the coolest I've ever felt, frankly.
Okay one more thing about fat bodies in space, which is that Theo Lorenz illustrated a fantastic coloring book full of fat bodies in awesome clothes in space. Fat Ladies In Spaaaaace paints a more creative view of fat bodies in the space future than most sci fi media.

See, it's good to have hobbies!
I think we can, like, accept the good fashion as our due AND bemoan the pigeon-holing. I want villains to be well-dressed AND I want everyone else to at least be interesting.
And, ok, we've talked about the Fifth Element. We also have to bring up every citizen of Wakanda.
STYLE.
