Today I had cause to remember that Bluey spends an episode perfectly explaining the hero’s journey. God I love Bluey. :D (Curry Quest, obv)

I really want to get up and go, got places to go and people to see, but unfortunately I think my get up and go got up and went without me.

Bethan, dragged back to her home village, is desperate to escape before Christmas. Mali, grieving the loss of a friend, knows Christmas won't be the same this year. A misunderstanding starts them off on the wrong foot - but perhaps they're each just what the other needs? Buy links in thread!

I’m having a very exciting month so far! One part I can share is I finally got diagnosed with ADHD last week! I started medication today! It might be psychosomatic but I have had a VERY productive day! If this keeps up I might take over the world by 2026!

My brain atm, at intervals: 🎤🎼🎶”ELIZABETH TAYLOR”🎵 #taylorswift #tloas

Eeeee I’m so excited about my #festivids assignment! :D! (Also better go write my letter… /o\ 😂)

🎼🎤🎶 When I find myself in times of trouble, Marcus Aurelius comes to me, speaking words of wisdom 🎵:

Oh friends I read this this week and it was just lovely, cannot recommend strongly enough

Apparently 31/8 is a very significant day in my family: - on this day 28 years ago, we moved from Greece to the UK - today I learned that on this day 40 years ago, my parents held a joint belated wedding reception (they were married Feb ‘85) and party to introduce 20 day old me to their friends <3

“While you were in the shower Taylor Swift got engaged!”

Somehow I’m 40 o_o

Instances of being my best self today: - “my pain is emotional. It doesn’t impinge on my ability to make toast.” - “I’ve had opinions on Homer ever since I could read.”

(It’s revenge bedtime procrastination o’clock over here.)

So ok yes it’s absolutely because of the Hollywood Bowl Cynthia Erivo/Pippa Soo clips JFC I’m not made of STONE, but me finally deciding it’s time to get weird about Jesus Christ Superstar might be my longest lead time since the original musical’s inception yet. 😂

Just saw a TikTok of someone ranking the characters in season 5 of Angel. I really don’t know what to do with that one.

Poor @usuallyhats.bsky.social and I are laid low by a summer cold, any takers?? @hartknyx.katlings.net?

Poor @usuallyhats.bsky.social: *hanging out, minding her own business* Me, at the top of my lungs: 🎤🎼 If I could TUUUUUUURN back TIIIIIIIME 🎵🎶

HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT *runs around screaming*

Update: I became too tired to read and fell asleep 😂

I want to sleep but I also don’t want to stop reading: a tale as old as time

Why is this so funny 😂 (cc @flooey.org)

Very delighted with this selfie so I’m sharing it (I’m in a hammock in Italy on a windsurfing holiday with @neery.bsky.social and @findmeinthealps.bsky.social!)

#grief I lost the habit of letting my parents know my travel plans and flight details years before mum died, which is its own sadness, so it’s really nice sharing them with @usuallyhats.bsky.social and having an entire discord channel dedicated to them instead. #foundfamily

I don’t normally read books where I share a name with a fairly major character (🫡), it’s *very* weird 😂

Housemate @usuallyhats.bsky.social and I are doing an @emilytesh.net book swap. She’s read “Some Desperate Glory” but not yet “The Incandescent”. I’m vice versa. We’re each now reading the other one and talking about them and having a lovely time. 😂

Fabulousness from @raprevec.bsky.social. ;)

Vidukon happened! I’ve been feeling more and more disengaged from fandom since mum died so I was really on the fence about attending at all this year but I’m so glad I pushed through that, it was such a joyous, inspiring and reconnecting weekend. <3

I made a Nirvana in Fire vid about the angry emperor for VidUKon! "No Love in Jinling" archiveofourown.org/works/66090223

For Reasons I was left to my own devices at Disneyland Paris last night. I went on 7 rides, had 4 desserts, watched 1 fireworks display, and had a whale of a time.

The mortifying ordeal of resting. That’s it. Send bluesk.

🎶 A beverage goblin needs at least 3 drinks at a time 🎵

There is a huge array of things I am cheerfully obnoxious about because I think I have a right to it but the one on my mind right now is being blasé about how far away New Zealand is and the long haul flights it takes to get there. 😂

Hello I live here now

ION, STOP! Hammock time! (Will I ever tire of this joke? Signs point to no)

Update: area woman may have created a storm in a teacup, huge if true

One day I’ll learn not to choose a multi-fandom vid to upload to a nascent database

Area woman completely flummoxed by setback so minor it can barely be defined as such 😂
