Record the 99_9 podfic you wanna listen to, I guess. "Chan lives. This makes some things simpler, and others more complicated." podfic of "Dislocation" by 99_9 (3 hrs) archiveofourown.org/works/71241351

Finished my podfic of The Hunt by Caeseria! Only took... Three and a half years.... Hunter!nin Iruka/Kakashi, 21 ch, 20+ hrs 🔒 archiveofourown.org/works/37965781

When Lana Del Rey sings, "ready, set, the gate is down and now we're goin' in" I think to myself, every time, "the enemy's gate is DOWN."

Second movie of the day: main character just referred to Hannah Arendt as "some smartass," which definitely made me laugh but also burst out indignantly, "Some smartass?! Some smartass?! That was Hannah Arendt, asshole!"

Watching The Sixth Sense for background noise this morning. When I saw it in the theater, about halfway (?) through, I turned to my friend who was there with me, and said, "Do you think he's, like, dead?" and wow did that piss off her and everyone around us.

My superpower continues: clocked "the guy from the Papa Don't Preach video" as a minor character in Kiss The Girls. (Alex McArthur, who has such a great smile.)

At my sister's with the kids this weekend. Starting off strong: Me: ooh, what's that box? 4 yr old: it is... A box... ?? Me: oh, of course. 4 yr old: it is just... A box...

istg one of these days I'm just going to record all the noise around the house all day and upload it as one of those 12 hr youtube asmr videos: "Cozy city noises" Just 12 hours of screaming kids on pogo sticks and car horns and bus doors opening and shouting construction workers and clanking buoys.

The Smitten Kitchen cream biscuit recipe is so reliable. It's never failed me. Good morning.

Anyway I'm trying to decide if I really want to install Linux. I have two programs that will only run in Windows, and one of them is non negotiable. But I really don't want to split my computer into two operating systems. I also don't want to buy a second laptop just to run StreamFab. Bleh.

Found while backing up my computer: a document from several years ago outlining the first half (or so) of an MDZS story in which Wei Ying is a YouTuber who paints furniture (lol) with his son and LWJ is a carpenter specializing in reproduction furniture whose kid loooooves Wei Ying and a'Yuan.

I'm reading a story in which the author is trying to convince us in the notes that there won't be a certain romantic relationship by calling it "strictly phi/nong." ... Who is going to tell them?? (I haven't seen a "phi kink" tag out there yet, but I'm sure I'll find it eventually.)

Hm.i joined AO3 in 2009, so my fandom must have been bandom - 2009 was the year I wrote the multi-band vegan diner au, I'm pretty sure.

Every time Sydney talks about Vaughn, I just yell at the TV, "Michael Vaughn is just a boy who was never good enough for you!!!!" For once, Spy Daddy has the right of it. I hate Vaughn all the time but especially in season 3. #Alias

Come watch SUGA: Road to D-DAY with us!! And other stuff too 😂

🔒Podfic of "Parallel Talk" by nevertheless - read by me! KinnPorsche - Pete/Vegas - BDSM - 1:51:12 (mostly unedited - I'm pretty much just reading you a story!) archiveofourown.org/works/70214446

This is soooooo good. So good.

What is the deal with fanfic (and pubbed fiction, and some TV shows....) having people stand with their hands in front of them during parade rest? I am not in any way affiliated with the military but even I know that zero rest positions allow for hands in front. Hands in back, palms facing behind.

It has been 33 years and I still can't hear "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" without thinking about episode 14 of Swans Crossing.

This The Pitt/HRPS crossover is so great and now has a second part. A++. archiveofourown.org/series/5117591

The idea that any waffle not made in cast iron could possibly be cooked in 3 minutes is like one of the great lies of the modern era. (My waffle iron is an electric black & Decker and takes 10-12 minutes to cook a waffle to crisp. Any less time and they have to go into the toaster, too.)

The 11 yr old just called my mom and said, "My mom needs a scolding." 😂

5 am: the orange cat wants me to wake up, so he finds my knitting, drags it over to my bed, and starts chewing on it next to my head. Like. I did indeed wake up.

I love in MDZS fics when the characters are set in canon time and use Yiddish. It's so genuinely delightful to me. That's right, dage, that guy IS a schmuck!!

Vindaloo my beloved, naan my love, samosa my darling.

At my sister's with the kids today. The baby has taken to yelling, "Are you serious kidding me!?" when he's upset about something. He also just yelled, "Stop annoying me!" at the boss in his video game. What a kid.

The Yoongi Jim Jones poor little meow meow thing is circulating again, and all I wanna do every time I see it is listen to "Jonestown" by Concrete Blonde, which was soooo acclaimed when it dropped in 1993, but they'd probably be "cancelled" for it now. youtu.be/FQVTYMdqTp0

Anyway, we're home from the trip and I wish I had another week of vacation just to lie in bed and recover from driving 900 miles. 😬

Me: "... And when you watch it, keep an eye on Jimin, his choreo is the best." Baby sibling: "I don't know which one is Jimin." Me: "when you're watching and you go, oh shit that dancer!!! -- That one is Jimin."

Me: I am alone in a hotel room for three entire days! I am going to get sooo much podfic recorded. The person in the hotel room across from mine with three dogs who bark fucking incessantly: So you thought, bitch! (Last night I actually called the front desk. Dogs barking at 9 pm? fuck off!!)

I had not been on those roads since I was 12. It did not matter that I did not have cell service/GPS. I knew exactly where I was going. Every road is the same. The buildings are the same. It was like stepping back in time 30-whatever years to the most miserable and traumatic years of my life.

The problem with driving north on all the rural roads from my childhood is that there are no gas stations and no rest areas - so no bathrooms unless you pull to the side of the road and piss in the woods. Otherwise you just have to suffer. (I suffered.)

Soooo much of my Tumblr folks are watching Reset, but who else is watching Ballboy Tactics?!!!!

Seems not great that I can't opt out of having my medical records fed into an AI if I want to keep seeing my Mount Sinai doctors.

Another day, another set of bus rides, another group of my fellow New Yorkers complimenting my tattoos, asking about my knitting, and needing directions.

It is my personal individual fault that "hits to kudos ratio" means nothing.

Dinner with a friend tonight who I haven't seen in years. Her: "tell me everything about the last two years!" Me: "I got really into BTS!!!" Her: "wait, I thought you already did that... What are the other letters though? B...s... D...?" Me: "you are thinking of bdsm."

We are up to the Ethan Hawke episode of Alias 🤩 this rewatch is so good for me. (Yes, I've seen every episode 5+ times. No, it never gets old.)

Honestly, with hindsight, Radcliffe, Watson and Grint's public statements where they sided with trans people, expressed their support with no caveats, and willingly blew up any chances at future ties to the franchise has only gotten more and more noteworthy as more actors are revealed to be cowards

Come to Confab and watch SUGA: Road to D-DAY with us!

I did not feel well last night, so I played a video game too too late. But I did finally get to The Shimmering Frontier and Alien Tech Lab biomes in Core Keeper, which has been my goal since they reset the worlds and I had to start over. Solarite my beloved.

"We have a firewall. You broke through it. Why?" "I was just trying to download an MP3 from Audiogalaxy. You know, an mp3... Like music..." Alias s2e11

Every time I have wanted to throw my computer out the window today, I have walked away and recorded a chapter of podfic. I have recorded five chapters today. That's how my day has been.

I am finding that I desperately want to podfic my favorite 99_9 KinnPorsche fics but OMG I cannot learn enough Thai to do it, not while I'm studying Mandarin and trying to pick up Korean. On the other hand maybe it will be easier with two other languages at the same time??

Today for part of our team retreat we had to bring an object that is important to us, so I brought a picture of Yoongi and talked about how I used to be very involved with music communities and followed bands around, and then stopped, and now thanks to BTS and ARMY I'm back in a music community 🥰

Rain and Payu from Love in the Air are the protagonists of The Boy Next World?! They do have great chemistry, they're a good pair. (And Saowalak K. is doing the subtitles!!! Yeahhhh!! I hope whoever that is is having a great life.)

My Dear Gangster Oppa episode 1: in general I don't like comedy but I'm giving this a shot because I like the title. HOWEVER, I am already super annoyed by the protagonist and don't think he's worth the time of the love interest. It gets one more episode, then I move on :|
