One good/bad thing about the TROP S2 finale anniversary is all the Adar art I keep seeing. I may be primarily a Haladriel but Maidar is one of those ships I keep picking at, and of course I enjoyed Adar in his own right - but man, do I wish he'd lived and gone into exile or something sometimes.

Always hate when you see a fandom take where you think "right?!" and you can't interact with it because you feel like the person hates you because you know they definitely hate your ship 😭

Re-watching Glass Onion and away from Daniel Craig, it's 100% Janelle Monáe who is the real MVP here.

Ok I'm gonna finally admit it out loud, my favourite S20 contestant is definitely Reece. But he better watch out because Ania and her lovely red curls and spectacular outfits is challenging his crown! #Taskmaster

The cast list for Pride & Prejudice: The Table Read is just banger after banger tbh.

Nori is a character in the AU I’m writing and you better believe I mentioned her girlfriend Poppy in her intro scene! If Prime won’t throw crumbs, I certainly will.

They all look like they’re plotting to kill me in ways that are way worse than with a gun.

How does this yellow level wind sound worse than the red level wind we had in January?!

Was anyone entirely happy by the end of this episode? 😭 I guess maybe Gandalf stans were alright. Their guy knows who he is now and is gonna DO STUFF.

Lowkey annoying things about owning a tenement today... - Factor asking for more money (the work on the communal stairs should've been done months ago!) - The wind howling through my living room.

(Just over) 20 years ago Franz Ferdinand released their highly anticipated second album less than two years after the debut. This is my favourite track. I used to have the demo Alex made many years before but I think it was a Realplayer file and sadly I've since lost it! youtu.be/AMBQywN_86o?...

I got home ok!

My experience in the MCU fandom and now Rings of Power means my advice regarding people who claim to have “scoops” remains the same: treat said “scoops” as mere fan theories. Nothing is concrete until you’re watching the actual film/episodes.

Going to try driving home early today. Wish me luck 😩

Attention Glasgow and London people! I guarantee* you’ll have a really good night if you go see this band. *(not legally binding. If you do what I did and trip over the cobbles outside the venue and it ruins your night, that was all you.)

A list that could’ve only been created by a bunch of bitter socially inept men who are mad that teachers, university professors and heck just women in general didn’t spend every day telling them “of course you’re the most special boy!”

I wasn’t gonna say anything about that album because I’m not a fan in general and am in my “shh let people enjoy things” era, but I’m finding the wildly contrasting reactions I’m seeing extremely funny as someone who doesn’t know wtf you’re all on about, ngl.

Stirring half a tea spoon of sugar into the coffee granules to teach the coffee drinkers a lesson in “stop putting a wet spoon in the sugar for fucks sake” 😊

Quite a lot of childhood memories of watching this show even though I bloody hated it, because there were only four main channels and nothing else was on 😂 Pretty good age to get to but feels like another end of an era thing.

Miserable week. I’m also embarrassed at the original work I’ve ever sent in to competitions. No wonder I got cold “no thanks” emails. I had no right to enter.

The fact that it suits actual antisemites on the far right for you to keep conflating pro-Palestine protests with antisemitism because it takes the heat off the far right, and they’ll 100% continue to hate Jews and Muslims alike. They don’t actually give a shit about any of this!

My solidarity IS with both Palestine and the ordinary Jews who politicians like Mahmood keep conflating with the government in Israel even though MANY Jews continue to speak out against the unchallenged slaughter of Palestinians. It’s an insult to everyone to keep doing this.

I’m sorry but we’ve evolved past the need for middle aged cis men to say anything about anything because what the fuck is this?!

Me at supposed horror fans who write things like this…

Just seen Pharazôn's new outfit and what a fucking diva #TROPspoilers

A vehicle fire closed the motorway just as I got on it on the way home, meaning I sat not moving for over an hour, then they only reopened one lane. In total, it took me 3.5 hours to drive home tonight. For a journey that usually only takes 25-40 minutes 🙃 So yeah, I'm not feel great right now.

When will my wife (Galadriel) return from the war (no S3 sneak peeks featuring her yet jail)?

Ok seeing as there’s a few events in one of my fandoms this month please I am begging you: if you insist on drafting your fic in AO3 (whhhy? 😭) over several days/weeks REMEMBER to update the posting date when you publish. Seen some new fics already that aren’t on the front page due to this.

I remember doing this because the toilets were where all the bitchy girls who hated me for no reason would hang out and terrorise me/other girls. I spent all of high school basically with a permanent headache. My heart goes out to every trans kid who is suffering this state-supported torment.

Re, that last repost: I dare say there are SOME adult Catholic converts who are completely normal but the averages are not looking good.

As a non-Catholic, I do love this bit where the pope of the Catholic Church says something fairly anodyne about Catholic theology and a bunch of podcast guys are like, "Who's this asshole to lecture us about Catholicism?"

So yeah… this is awful.

You don’t actually have to both sides this. The Jewish community in the UK is not the Israeli government. You can just condemn the murder of two British Jews killed in their place of worship and you don’t have to say a single other thing.

This comment nails it. Frankly it’s none of anyone’s business who else is in a public lavatory, even if they consider someone is in the “wrong” one. If you’re upset by the mere presence of somebody else for reasons of your own beliefs, that’s your problem.

Saw this on Threads and *LAUGHS SO HARD I DIE IN ENJOYS THE RINGS OF POWER* The delusion 😂

I’m kinda so bored of the BBC platforming Toilet Bigots like their obsessive bigotry is the most important issue of our age. Women are abused and killed by their CIS male partners every day. Wee girls (and wee boys) are going to bed hungry because of government policy. REPORT THAT FFS!

My colleague keeps angry typing and sighing loudly and look, I get it but the overdramatic sighing is making ME hate it here even more.

The management of this place really think people are just yelling at them unreasonably don't they?! 🙄 Yeah, I would simply not brag about not being the owner of a certain other website when I'm implementing shitty policies as well.

I've finished editing my first two Hellghoul week chapters 😊 The final chapter, chapter three, might end up being chapter three and four because the first two already clock in at nearly 15K... Now if only I could get my mojo back for the canon universe fic I planned for the same event 😩

My husband and I any time we go on holiday somewhere warm... "oh it's too hot today." But I am partial to "mmm 64 slices of American cheese" any time I eat cheese (never actually slices of American cheese.) Which means I say "I think I'm blind" any time I overdose on cheese.

Why yes, I AM a little over remakes and the same books getting made into films all the time but...Frankenstein gets a pass because yup it looks amazing. Del Toro just never misses with tone and aesthetic in this genre.

Ok, I know I’m now in my fifth decade but was no-one gonna tell me there’s a wearing part in EVERY toilet cistern and you’re lucky if it lasts longer than 5-7 years?!

The feminine urge to not leave my old fics alone and constantly edit them every few weeks.

In the position to edit my first two Hellghoul chapters with almost a month to spare 😊

There was a bad moment about oh 19 years ago when the SUPER intense TenSimm people made me hate it, but ngl this is the Friends to Lovers to Enemies to Still Lovers to Occasional Weird Secret Third Thing ship of all time.

only having a bsky and tumblr is such a specific brand of exhausted millennial

Stop giving this legitimacy. She looks like a child. A real child actor can only work a set number of hours a day. THINK about that and also the implications of these ghouls just so happening to have picked a girl instead of a boy or man to do this!

One of my least fave things about fandom dynamics changing with creatives being so accessible on social media now is the “Y Thing You Like will never be canon!” gotcha attempts. How weak do you think I am? How weak are YOU actually!

Was it harsh of me to say “I don’t know, check the sign with the room guides that everyone ignores for some reason” when yet AGAIN a colleague asks “is there a room free at 2?”

I don’t see whatever canon does as winning or losing. I see it as me gaining more material to either use or ignore in my own little world because I was forged in the fires of the MCU fucking up my fave constantly. Canon can’t hurt me, I’m the master of a character’s fate on THIS account.
