Manuuuuu

"Canon is garbage and i'm going dumbster diving" is the best tag i've ever seen on ao3 and it exemplifies everything i want in a fandom. The source material has to suck for the fics to be good. What tf do u even write abt without smth to fix??

My umamusume account is blessed by the gacha gods i tell you. Getting Seiun sky with a trainee ticket on my first pull is mental

Possibly my luckiest day of umamusume so far... crazy second Narita Brian pull, unlocked Super Creek's outfit, won the raffle and got a 3 star stamina spark on my first Narita career run 🙏

Nella looks so dang wrinkly. Like what kind of hack dog trimmer trims the whole face without asking? Even the whiskers :l

This heat is so cursed my ps5 sounds like a jet engine i can literally hear nothing else

I finally got monster hunter wilds and now i'm going to proceed staring at the character creation screen for two hours, then repeatedly making new characters when they inevitably look weird in cutscenes

Ballerina is 100% my fav john wick movie now. Eve is hot. The fight scenes are insane. And having the "judith slaying holofernes" painting behind the desk of the ruska roma director?? Chef's kiss if u know ur art history.

Managed to eliminate my knee pain during running just by doing some pilates on my off days. Just one workout and it was gone the next day. Bodies are weird

I gotta say that there's smth euphoric abt deadlines. Until it's passed u can do nothing but work. There's no procrastination, no choices. Just this one thing, all day.

Just finished the Cradle series. Kinda shocked these books aren't more popular than they are bc they're just super solid. Not a single bad book out of 12. Incredibly well executed progression fantasy with found family, exciting plot and good jokes?? Helloooo please read it

Just spent 8 hours being a total overachiever on our project because everyone else is.... severely underachieving. Someone had to do the work and apparently i was the only one who can do so without explicit orders??

Somehow being a project lead is easier when working from home. In person i'm like "ummm i dunno what we should do. What do you guys think 🥺" and remotely "this is what needs to happen. I'm doing it and ya'll can just cope"

Project management in an academic setting is actual hell. We're trying to discuss serious things in the project whatsapp and out of the blue this one dude shares smth like "look at this cool anime figure 😃" He's also played anime music at loud volume to everyone at the beginning of teams meetings

🦑 This baby is COLOSSAL! 🦑 First confirmed live observation of the colossal squid, Mesonychoteuthis hamiltoni, in its natural habitat. Filmed at about 600m near the South Sandwich Islands during the #SouthSandwichIslands expedition. youtu.be/lzPoG9H8Hlo

Rather unfortunate that since all i've done lately is work work work even my social media posts sound like they belong on linkedin... reading 19th century books probably doesn't help

Chapter 55 of the Count of Monte Cristo might very well be my favourite chapter so far, and one of the best written dialogues i've ever read. The doublespeak is so delicious. Such intelligent and yet entertaining writing!

Let me be the dinosaur kid i was born as for a second and just say hOLY fucking shit. This is huuuge

It is always a hit to my low self-esteem when i realize i'm actually good at some real life skill. Like what do you mean i can translate a client's brief into actual technical requirements? Can't everyone??

The absolute power trip of leaving a comment on a fic abt some scenario u thought up and then they actually include it in the next chapter?? Like? All these words were written for ME?

Why do i keep having dreams abt cars?? This time i went to a dealership, test drove two cars, and then dad showed up. I don't have a license and the closest i've come to liking cars is playing burnout paradise as a kid

Started reading Unsouled by Will Wight because it was described as being exactly like a shounen anime. And yeah it's going above and beyond to create that impression but the mc is like another level of shounen mc. Not a scrap of personality. Not even a special interest!!

The orv live-action having guns is sooo cursed. What about the inherent sexual tension of being stabbed with a sword in close range??

Batfam enemy to caretaker fics are so diabolical sometimes. The amount of versions i've read of the titans tower thing??? I straight up skip that part now cuz there's only so much whump i can stomach. Fics giving me anxiety for real

Just had such a good talk with a student counselor abt my thesis procrastination problems. I'm apparently very good at self-reflection, just piss poor at acting on that knowledge

Sit tietää et on menny sauna liia kuumaks ku tekee mieli pipetillä annostella löylyt

The problem with gen is that sometimes the author is incredibly mature and an expert in childhood trauma, and sometimes they're just an overly angsty child throwing a fictional punching bag around

Reading an angsty gen fic and one of the characters starts singing the you are my sunshine song and... i have a high cringe tolerance but every sympathetic feeling in me just curled up and died my god

Well i've managed to completely neglect to post anything here ever. Have the pov of a piece of chicken

"Perkele. Saatana. Helvetti" on mun mantra jolla mie manifestoin sen että mä unohan mun tunaroinnit viimeisen viiden minuutin aikana

I'm so, so glad i waited until the physical copy to read wind and truth. Seeing the pov of the prologue smacked me in the face

to be loved is to be found ( ꈍ◡ꈍ) 🌟 #FieldsofMistria #fanart

I've been a sleep deprived mess the whole week and i finally have an idea why. It's because this little donut keeps barging into my room in the middle of the night to sleep, thus letting in the light from the hallway

Finally managed to start writing my thesis today. Sometimes you just have to look yourself in the eye and ask if you want to read this fanfic Right Fucking Now or graduate

Happened to eat some spoiled food. Although an educational experience (tasted like lemons), i would rather not repeat it. A most delicious dish of pesto potatoes and tofu was lost today. u_u

Reading my first Thomas Hardy novel and his prose goes so hard, especially his descriptions of people: "'Matthew Moon, ma'am', said a singular framework of clothes with nothing of any consequence inside them"

Caitlyn's neck ribbon thing was totally foreshadowing. Love to see my unhinged female characters thriving(?)

WAIT VEILGUARD IS TOMORROW?? And i don't have a ps5.... guess i'll be dodging spoilers

Also thinking abt posting my bookish thoughts here? Maybe with a specific tag or smth? Do yall wanna know my thoughts on the various levels of feminism in wilkie collins' works...

Ludovico Einaudi is the only thing getting me through my thesis process rn ngl. God bless him

Will i take this chance to update my social media profile? Hell no my sister did it for me years ago and that it shall remain until she sees fit to change things

Also hi?? Here's nella being a dum dum

I'm sooo glad bluesky's data is public after seeing the kinda shit that goes down on telegram and twitter.... people gotta take responsibility for what they say and do online
