It’s so clearly two-thirds of a story ahhhhhhh

Relatedly, Babycakes has decided they want to be a psychopomp.

Watched the Na Na Na music video with Babycakes, accidentally got them super invested, reluctantly showed them SING where everyone dies, and then spent a while explaining the LLTBP timeline theories.

But what if I got a very small tattoo while I wait for my very large tattoo appointment….

(I promise it won't just be Barriers by Frank Iero and the Future Violents.)

I miss themed playlists. Mix tapes. Sharing a bunch of songs that have you all twisted up inside. I think we should do an exchange, or a fest, or a thing. Would you be interested in a thing?

SO TRUE

Came up with a banger first line for a draft I haven't touched in five years. Thanks brain?? Been letting that one cook a while?

Custodian is telling stories of some people he worked for in high school who were clearly mobsters. "....his right hand man, that poor guy, we found him in the trunk..." YOU WHAT

Extremely niche reference to Dimension 20 A Starstruck Odyssey: I have a villain in this story that I gave a ridiculous poncey long name and I keep forgetting it and calling him Connie Lee Carter Van Helsing.

I wrote this a couple of years back but I’m still really proud of it.

Snow flurries today I am not ready!

A turkey vulture stands on a sign, wings outspread. The sign reads “kayak rentals available upon request”

Should I ask him for a kayak? 🪶🌿

Struggling with the smallest things today. Can't stand the quiet but all audio I try is distracting. Can't sit still long enough to focus but I don't want to do anything but write. Brain why.

Good morning

Tattoo in February GO

Devastating. Absolutely destroys me every time.

Every time someone uses the phrase "...gets more than they bargained for" in an AO3 summary, "Sugar, We're Going Down" should start loudly playing. If it's a bandom fic, Actual Patrick Stump should appear.

This fic has it all*

*all the healthy coping skills I’ve learned for dysregulation

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I forgot to take a picture of my Dirty Shirley and sadly none of the librarians I was hanging out with at the conference cash bar knew about Princess Donut.

The anaphora in the lyrics of 'Favorite Record' by Fall Out Boy mimics the skipping of a record, in this essay I will.....(A deeper reading emphasizes memory, a song stuck in one's head, and as the duo of repeated words resolved into one, reflecting the past tense of the relationship GO TO WORK JJ)

New season, new bird, prepare to receive all the pictures

First junco sighting of the season!

DESERVES A QUIET NIGHT

One of the lifeguards at open swim had a guitar and was strumming along to the K-Pop Demon Hunters soundtrack. For reference, open swim has until this point been completely without accompanying music. Amazing night, glad we went.

Fingers crossed that the artist who did my space bee tattoo is interested in my vibes only description of what I want for an upper back piece. I did use the phrase "art deco book cover embossment."

Auto-correct has once again called me out, changing "camp fire" to "vampire." The only problem is, I'm writing werewolves.
