my pastel color palettes are kinda goated ngl. Also, I’m good at coloring the sky. One of my friends once said “no one does a sky like you” and I think of that often!

"bluesky is boring" then youre a fake ass poster. youre not supposed to mindlessly scroll youre supposed to post your every thought for the five people who care about u

Thinking about my fanfic writing days. Those were fun. I’m still in the process of moving things from Wattpad to AO3. I want to finish the stories I left hanging, but it’d be wise to not expect new fics from me anytime soon.

Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.

Niche and uninteresting Meli fact #2: I found out I’m allergic to kiwi when I asked my family, “don’t you guys hate it when you eat something with kiwi in it and it feels like a bunch of tiny knives are cutting your throat?” and the response was

it feels like everyone is at Magfest except me

One thing I learned from my worst job: Pearl-clutching over someone using "bad language" can be a tactic, a form of linguistic DARVO. It's used purposely to deflect from whatever point the speaker was making. Good on anyone who refuses to take the bait.

Out of context work-related quote: “get blinded, idiot”

ICE doesn’t need to just be “reigned in” they need to be abolished entirely. What an evil waste of money and resources

Coworkers aghast I didn’t know a popular actor, they start naming movies they’ve been in. I shake my head at every one. They start giving me suggestions for movies to watch with that actor. I do not have the heart to tell them I don’t intend to watch any of them

I need my idol moots to get over here now so I can never look at that bird site again fr

The changing of the guard.

I’d like to give you guys an update on what I’m currently into, but honestly I don’t know myself??? I’ve just kinda been existing this past month. It’s been such an odd period of time.

i will never be a modern fe VS retro fe elitism kinda person. as far as im concerned im getting two cakes

I really second this: if you’re seeing this, give Fire Emblem Engage a try! Alear is honestly super sweet and down to earth, and there’s still plenty of heart in the lighter adventure story Engage offers. The story is still neat, with wholesome or silly-fun supports with the cast to add to it!

Me, a black person, hearing white maintenance man talking to black gas control guy(?) and when the latter leaves, hearing the maintenance man say “i don’t understand whatever Zulu language that man was speaking” he was speaking perfect English

I should really get a new weighted blanket sometime. I think that’s what my bedtime spread is missing need heavy blanket to get maximum sleep

what do you call that feeling where your friend says something that clearly demonstrates they’ve experienced growth and you feel warm inside, is there a name for that

Our Discorders answered the question, 'what if the games of 2025 were Simpsons stills?' Judge the results for yourself.

I have creative projects that I've been struggling to finish for *years* that I would rather fling into a fire than let a computer complete them for me.

Happy 30th anniversary to Tales of! You will forever be my favorite series!

if I could get my brain to concentrate on doing art I would be so unstoppable

While Amazon is investing billions of dollars to expand AI, independent bookstores are hosting community events, personally recommending books to readers, and providing a space that is safe and welcoming during a time when we need them most. Never underestimate the power of a local bookstore.

Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.

The me I was 10 years ago would… still recognize this as me (who else would listen to FOB, PsyFe, AND Negramaro) but would be shocked at the ratios displayed here

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

it is IMPOSSIBLE to shop for formal dresses anymore. I just want a cute fit and flare moment. Every single “formal” dress I find is super fitted. “Look at me! I have tits and a big butt!” Yawn.

Every now and then, I’ll have these really cryptic work-related dreams. Luckily I like my job, but I don’t know if I like how often it creeps up in my dreams 😅

I had never considered this a possibility and now I am viscerally horrified.

Me: goes to Jamba Me: “hm that’s weird why did they put blueberries in my bag?” I look into my bag there are no strawberries in my smoothie bowl they substituted with blueberries

if you like books with queer casts in their late 20s and up trying to navigate their love lives amidst trauma then boy did I write the duology for you

I've not been doing a very good job of hyping my own work, but I promise it's good and worth it. Read it. Love the lesbians and gay men and gendermonster queers who are all trying to figure out how to be immortal, love blood, and maybe each other: linktr.ee/lilyflowerbo...

I got so stoned at a Mets game once I compared the Jumbotron to the top screen of a Nintendo DS bc it had “a bunch of useful contextual information” and the field to the bottom screen bc “it’s where the game is actually played”

"m/f is only good when it's t4t" "I like this ship but only when it's bi4bi" "she has to be pegging him" gently holds your hand. you do not need to qualify the things you like to justify liking them

Btw guys I missed when it happened but one of the highlights of my existence in this site is when the Whimsicott Mention account finds my posts 😌

if i've learned anything from in person events like fanfest, magiccon, and even fan run events, it's that most negativity you see in nerd communities online is more often than not just an obnoxious and loud minority

Overseas fans first played #FinalFantasy III 19 years ago (2006) with the DS remake!🍃 The job-change system started here and the OST is underrated nowadays. It has since been ported to PC, mobile, and Ouya! (Remember Ouya?)– plus the Pixel Remaster. Review: www.rpgfan.com/review/final...
