Just this morning I learned that MCR did a cover of Pulp's Common People. You all know how much I love MCR, but if you haven't been around me for decades, you may not have had to hear my opinion that Common People is THE perfect pop song. The existence of this cover has made me a better person.

I dont know who is responsible for such things, but i need Hyunjin's tummy freckle to get it's own Ao3 tag. I need to be able to filter for the freckle.

I made freebies for the Stray Kids movie. I made these as labor intensive as humanly possible. The skzoo animals are made from polymer clay and hand painted. I gave out about 150 of these. I didnt know how badly I needed a fandom that came with crafting opportunities. This is my best life.

Today, @strangecobwebs.bsky.social and I faced off against the rest of the world in the Kpop Hunger Games (also known as BTS tour Pre-sale) and we were VICTORIOUS!! @lilac-one.bsky.social will be joining us for the Baltimore show (!!!!!) And we got tickets for two of shows in Vegas.

[update] Scheduled: #AO3 will be down for about 15 hours starting at 08:00 UTC on January 21 while we make some improvements to searching bookmarks and series.

In Japanese class, I am working on listening exercises (which I am terrible at)... and today's assignment is about Capybaras bathing with yuzu fruit in a hot spring. Sometimes, I really do love my life.

As we mourn Rob Reiner, don’t skip this: he was, pretty much, personally responsible for overturning California’s Prop 8 banning same sex marriage. www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...

I spent the weekend with Christine. We went to see The Academy Is... (at the same venue I last saw William Beckett at in 2012). The show was excellent. Ian Crawford was touring with them (!!!) They have a new album coming out next year and I am legit excited for it.

Movie you've watched more than 6 times with a .gif (Hard mode: no Star Wars, Star Trek, LOTR, or Marvel)

All I want for Christmas is for the worst people in the world to experience some consequences

I'm a gynecology NP... you really don't want me to answer this question. Trust me.

Whenever you make art you should make it the most self indulgent thing that has ever existed. make it so self indulgent ppl are like Hmm is this a fetish, they went so hard with it, wow, I don't even go here but maybe I do now

Because of R's work schedule, we did Thanksgiving today. We ate dinner and watched a few matches of Elden Ring Bingo (it's just like football. For super geeks) I'm over full and curled up under a blanket. Thinking about writing off the rest of the night and just reading fic. Aka: my best life.

Did i really just wake up at 1am, remember that this presale had opened, and spend $100 on an album that I already own so I could have a tiny, evil ferret speaker? Is this who I am now? I have no regrets! But also, I would like to say one more time that it's @strangecobwebs.bsky.social fault (❤️)

The truth 🐊

This cartoon is a few years old, but i saw it for the first time today and laughed my socks off.

The wait is over! Booking for JoCo Cruise 2027 is now live. Our mailing list got first crack at it - and cabins are already selling almost as fast as JoCo Cruise 2026... which sold out! Find out why 3k people love our "Summer Camp at Sea." Visit jococruise.com to get started!

There are coincidences, and there are trends, and then there's this. This is erasure.

One of the strangest aspects of aging that they don't warn you about is watching as history gets rewritten right in front of your face and people 20 years younger than you confidently tell you about something you lived through and get it completely wrong.

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

“He doesn’t have a mandate” are you fucking kidding? Dick Cheney died the day Zohran is elected he has the mandate of HEAVEN

The woman who picked the music at the pottery studio tonight is my age. For the first time in maybe 15 years, I listened to Belle & Sebastian. I cannot tell you how happy this made me. I'm also a little impressed and a little horrified by how many lyrics I still know.

DB and I always go away for my birthday. We went to Poland earlier this month, so this year it didn't happen. It's so weird not to spend it with her. But, left to my own devices, I spent most of the day in the pottery studio, had dinner with R, and now I'm going to read fic LIKE IT'S MY JOB ❤️

Friends, if you haven't seen this story, read it. It has: A beautiful dog Humans being good The internet being a community It has made my heart grow two sizes and kept me afloat for the past few days.

"I DON'T NEED YOU TO FUCKING REWRITE WHAT I'VE JUST WRITTEN!"

Yesterday was crafting day at @strangecobwebs.bsky.social house. She said to bring snacks. It was also Lee Know's birthday. So, do you know how hard it was to find cats that looked like Soonie, Doongie, and Dori? I am fully unhinged. I accept and embrace this.

Best Sunday morning ever? Maybe. I woke up for a 5am Stray Kids concert live stream It was WONDERFUL and I love my children desperately. But more importantly, I got to watch it with @lilac-one.bsky.social Our chat history is a 4 hour snapshot of my psychosis. I ❤️ this and her.

I am back from vacation. Poland is beautiful. Warsaw was one of the cleanest cities I've ever been to. The food, even for someone who doesn't eat beef or pork, was amazing and CHEAP. For maybe the first time in my life, jet lag is kicking my ass. I just can't get back to my normal sleep routine 😴

I am not an overly cautious person in general. But i'm like the ONLY person in JFK airport wearing a mask. Really, everyone else is more risk tolerant than me? I guess that time I got covid on my way to Scotland, or that other time I got covid on my way home from London, must have affected me 🙃

I'm on the train to NY and Mandy! Then, tomorrow, I get on a plane to Warsaw and Deathblow!* This week, I will see two of my favorite people, Citical Role, and a country I've never been to before. It is good times! *for anyone new to me, Deathblow is my BFF's nickname. You'll get used to it.

I just finally finished the new Critical Role episode.... and I had somehow forgotten how terrible it is to have to wait a week for the next episode. Can I be put into a medically induced come for a few months so I can wake up and just binge a dozen episodes like a feral animal? Please?

Last night as I was falling asleep, I realized I didn't make a face jug. I forgot to put a handle on it. It's just a bottle. I leave for vacation on Tuesday. I won't be back in the studio for 2 weeks. By then, he'll be too dry. I still love him, but I literally didn't do the assignment 🙃

In pottery class, we're doing face jugs. My teacher said we could do any face - human, Minster, robot. I went Japanese Demon. I based it on Oni masks. It's the first time I've done any sculpture. It was so fun. This took me about 12 hours. I am RIDICULOUSLY proud of how it turned out.

Today there is new Critical Role and it's Bang Chan's birthday!! There is so much good content for me on this beautiful October day! Yet, I made the mistake of leaving my corner of the internet and seeing the real world. I shouldn't do that. Have a birthday boy Pic to make your life better.

It looks like Dinosaur Field Station of NJ is closing and selling their Dino sculptures

Okay, I felt the need to share the greatest shirt ever 🦕 🦴 ((my hair is in a bun because it's dirty, I haven't cut it all off.))

If you're tired and need a hug today, I'd like to offer this story of mine. It's about a haunted house so lonely that it promises it'll behave if anyone will just live in it.

Not to be cheap in public but: Dear breakfast restaurant, If i am spending $21 on pancakes and you bring me pancake syrup and not real maple syrup, know that we are about to fight. Like a legit physical altercation is going to happen.

I dont go to as many concerts as I did in my youth (my 30s). But I've been to a half dozen really good shows this year. Tonight is the one i'm most excited for. Tonight, I'm seeing Elvis Costello. I ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ him so much.

Do I know anyone in the SC area who knows someone (or *is* someone) who wants to adopt two cats? I desperately need to find a home for my parents' two cats. I already have three, so I can't take them. They are boarding at their vet while I look, and I have to go home to PA in less than a week.

The world is terrible, but my boots are super cute.

Sorry, this turned out long. I haven't posted on here in a while. It has been a really shit year for me. The details are boring (really, this is not high drama), but some things happened and made me realize that the life I was living and the future I thought I had planned weren't real.

A lot of video-game publishers spend hundreds of millions of dollars chasing after "realistic graphics" and "massive open-worlds" when what players really want is just a shitload of weird little guys

This is a new Murderbot short story, coming out later this week on Reactor Magazine. It’s about ART and its crew, set before Network Effect, and how ART finally decided to tell them about meeting a rogue SecUnit.

*quietly posts this and then quietly leaves*

I don't know why I ever expected anything better, but this news breaks my heart. This show is SO GOOD.
