Love is when you clog your girlfriend's toilet not once but TWICE and she still adores and wants to sleep with you. 💗 (And no, it wasn't because I forgot about the Brazilian toilet paper thing. 🫣)

I'm having the best time with @plutodetective.bsky.social 🤩😍🥰. There's even a local floofball who's very friendly and soft! The Moby sweater is going suspiciously great. My girlfriend's kink is me getting rest & sleeping well & I feel blessed. 🥹❤️ Plus the food is just as fantastic as last year!

Ratthi only remembered that he was still wearing his interface when SecUnit pinged him. It sent him an image. It was himself from earlier today, seen through its eyes: his hands up, eyebrows up, mouth parted in shock.

I have definitely left way too many things to do on my last weekend before traveling on Monday. See this face? It is the face of regret. 😅🙈

Tastatur war kurz cursed.

I hope that Konatsu Kato, the Japanese voice of in Silent Hill f, gets the voice acting equivalent of an Oscar. She did an incredible job. 👏👏👏

3rd attempt at this (redacted) gauge swatch, let's gooo 🫡 ✨

I've started knitting swatches for the Moby sweater ( www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... ) & this is gonna be my most ambitious project yet. I'm scared lmao but it's sooo gorgeous & IF I can make it work with my gauge it'll be a lovely addition to my winter wardrobe!

Told my social worker the story of how @plutodetective.bsky.social and I met & fell in love & she 'awww'ed so many times. 😂 I also had to explain what Tumblr is & she said she's never loved a piece of media so much that she went looking for other fans. I nodded politely, but... WHAAAT?

I'm waiting for Secret Purchase #1, just made Secret Purchase #2 in the hopes that it'll arrive in time for my travels. :3 *vibrates quietly* That was also some retail therapy because I just spent 1h15min filling out forms.

So the gunk on the downstairs balcony won't come off with regular scrubbing. So I guess I'll need to scrape it off, one tile at a time. This is Fine. ... a good chance to catch up on Re: Dracula, I guess!

We watched Hereditary and I was so viscerally uncomfy the whole time that I gave myself a tension headache. 😂👍 About 7/10, or perhaps 6.5? I liked it but the first half was stronger than the second!

With autumn being here, like every year, my urge to write horror increases! I just don't really have viable ideas. In combination with my Murderbot obsession I'd love to try my hand at MB horror fic. I'm not at all sure how to do that, or where to begin, but the urge(TM) is there.

LRP: My girlfriend wrote a book, y'all!! 😍

My book, Once Upon a Time in Space, is now available on several e-book distributors: books2read.com/u/b5p0yO If queer-inclusive sci-fi adaptations of classic fairy tales sound interesting to you, please check it out!

I just watched an absolute maniac of a Hollow Knight player try to beat Pantheon 5, while drinking a shot after every death, and he ended up killing the Radiance on FOURTEEN SHOTS. Then he drank two more "to celebrate". Why are gamers like this. 😂

All I bought was some chocolate, rice vinegar, and a few drinks, and I fucking spent 20 euros. 😭

Moments from the MCR concert that rewrote my brain chemistry: - the delightful mayhem at that first g note - when Gerard pointed/gestured to the crowd at "so many bright lights" in Famous Last Words - the whole crowd doing jazz hands during Na Na Na - the guitars in Sleep

Successfully sold both my old bed & desk today! 🎉 Now I just have 3 shelves that I'm giving away for free that need to go. Also, this money should cover my groceries for the rest of the month, which means I could get myself a little ✨treat✨ somewhere. (Lbr it'll probably be yarn.)

We just watched Bring Her Back (2025). I'm nooot okay. That was one of the best horror movies of the decade!!! Terrifying and sad. Also, gross. There were 2-3 scenes I had to look away from. 😅🙈

Nitpick of the day: when folks tag Murderathin fics as M/M. The "other" category is right there. Use it.

Once in a while I forget that I named my Gurathin playlist 'wet paper bag man' but then it comes back to me and makes me laugh. It's the little things.

I am watching progressively more insane (as in, beautifully sung & well-choreographed) ICCA sets of allll the a cappella groups and holy fuck. So many talented humans out there. Especially some vocal percussionists out there are incredibly amazing. 🤩

Getting my Covid booster shot today! And then the flu vaccine next week. ✨ (for once I'm NOT the only masked person in this doctor's office! 🎊)

LRP: tested just today by yours truly. 😂

"... and we still have to deal with Godzilla!" is truly the best way to stop an emotional dread spiral. it works so damn well.

#food Baseball Niece (10) can make her own pies (except for the knife/oven parts) and made this #Murdebot apple pie! See the pattern on its helmet? And a moon over its shoulder! "You should show this to the person who made Murderbot!" she told me. So @marthawells.com, check out your latest fanart!

In an interesting turn of events, my imagination now consistently makes book!Gurathin look like Jude Law. Fascinating.

Someone who follows me on Tumblr said that it's my fault she started watching Murderbot and this makes me SO happy. :D :D

This sounds stupid, maybe, but the ONLY time I wish I were a man/on T is when I listen to choirs/sea shanties. It's been a recurring yearning(TM) ever since I first joined a choir at the age of ~15. I mostly don't mind being a soprano but I have such a CRAVING for a deeper singing voice in me. 😅

Downloading fics to prepare for the AO3 outage & solemly swearing to use the downtime to write comments tomorrow! 🫡

One of the most frustrating things about language-learning, to me, is that I have trouble figuring out adjectives vs. adverbs. I know what each of those are. I understand. I have absorbed this sacred knowledge. But when presented with a sentence that has both, I fail spectacularly. 😅

My most common Portuguese problems/mistakes: 👉 aqui, ali, lá 👉 umas, uns ?? 👉 á, ao 👉 which plural-form verbs get a ^ as a lil treat 👉 esse (& the other version, I forgor) 👉 qual, quais 👉 é vs. está 👉 when "precisa" needs "de" & when it doesn't 👉 de, da, do and, embarrassingly: sua vs. seu 😅🙈

Attempting some Murderbot fanfic (shh, nobody move or the inspiration will get spooked) and it is VERY bizarre to write in 1st person POV again after 20+ years of painstakingly avoiding just that.

I'm looking at carpet/cushion cleaning machines & oh boy they are expensive as hell. I had no idea! Unfortunately I think I need one, my rugs look terrible. #BoringAdultThings

Mitbewohner hat gerade Dishonored DotO als "Entehrt: Tod des Außenseiters" übersetzt und ich lache viel mehr als ich sollte. Ja, das IST eine 1:1 Übersetzung, aber... 😂😂😂

Hello, today I am dying because of Gurathin's expression when Leebeebee talks about equipping MB with a penis (sigh).

I JUST SAW by chance that The Longest Johns have AT LAST covered 'Bully in the Alley,' one of my favorite sea shanties of all time!!!!!! 🤩 🤩 🤩 🤩 🤩 🤩 *explodes, leaving only a scorch mark in front of my desk.*

Landlord & his son are trying to install my door today & they showed up with no tools except a tiny hammer. So right now they're off to grab tools & will come back later. Stay tuned. Bruh. I'm sorry, what? Don't you naturally bring different tools to put up a door? Wouldn't that be common sense? 😅

I always know someone is gonna be the most painful of blorbos when I can put "I So Hate Consequences" by Relient K into their playlist. That drywall over there looks tasty. *sent crying over TV Gurathin, again.

Idek what is up with this week. It's so weird. Time is passing even faster than normal for me. And my energy is low. But! My yarn is here & I can keep crocheting my emotional support project. It is so much fun! I also need to reply to a bunch of messages. And I have a date this afternoon!! 🥰

An argument could be made for the whole Danger Days album to be applicable to Murderbot blorbos, because of the whole evil megacorp fucking over the world, in this essay I will-- *is brick'd*

I'm rewatching (nobody is surprised) & early-season Murderbot & Gurathin are such shitheels to each other, I love it. Them trying to catch each other off guard in ep 2 has big "It hurt itself in its confusion" energy. 😂🍿

I checked out this week's Friday Five on DW & one of the questions is, "Do you blow-dry your armpits to make deodorant dry faster?" I... didn't know people did that lmfao. It sounds ridiculous but I guess if I'm ever in a hurry I'll try it. 😆

I just got an automated Tumblr message that my blog is 14 years old today. Jesus H. Christ. 14 years on that godforsaken website. *crumbles into dust and blows away in the wind*

I've discovered an odd thing my imagination is doing. So, show!Gurathin is David Dastmalchian, yes, no questions asked. But I can't really match him to book!Gurathin? Instead, for book!Gurathin, I imagine an older version of Joe Keery (Steve from Stranger Things). ... Why? I have NO idea. 😆

... Corporation Rim awfulness + Gurathin's augments + planned obsolescence + h/c fic? Yes? No? Maybe? I have so many half-formed fic ideas based on the augments. Thank you Deus Ex for the inspiration. 😂

I just finished Murderbot S1 and juST... 1) AAAAUAUUHDUKFHHFH 2) Omg it hurts but it's such a good and lovely ending and I love everything so much 3) Gurathin did what??!! ... ... ... This is fine. I'm fine. Nobody touch me. 4) THE TENDER MOMENT THEY SHARED?? HELP? 5) Goodbye friends I am gone.

(CN: #OCD) Getting raw chicken goop on the counter is NOT a valid reason to burn down the kitchen. It is a new kitchen. It is a beautiful kitchen. I have cleaned the counter twice and that IS enough. 🥴

(rewatching ep 7) "If I was trying to kill Gurathin, he would be dead. You would all be dead if I was trying to kill you." - You know, I do think Murderbot genuinely thought that would be reassuring to hear. :D
