It probably says something about me that I'm moved almost to tears solely because Babyboy cared enough to ask if I ate dinner 😅

Man, my stomach is killing me. If I make it to tomorrow, I've definitely earned one of those "tummy ache survivor" shirts! 😂

"Being an advanced kid made me a burnout!" "Being a gifted kid gave me a superiority complex!" Being the smart kid in my class gave me a praise kink, thanks! I mean, I'm also a burnout with a superiority complex, but the praise kink is the main thing! 😅😂

I get the feeling this is most of us, huh? 😂💙 #writingcommunity

Just a typical #caturday 💙✨

I've been in a weird mood all week, but tomorrow is journal day, and surely seeing all my writing progress for the week laid out will fix me! 🤞✨

"Okay, that's enough screen time," I say, closing my laptop and playing on my phone instead 😅

I was two books away from wrapping up my ARC TBR, but then I was hit by the urge to grab a bunch of graphic novels. I regret nothing! 💙✨

I do like Halloween, I really do, but you would not believe the amount of serotonin I got seeing the Christmas stuff starting to get put up! 🥺💙

I'm not naming the singer or the song, but I was exposed to the lyrics against my will, and there's no way an adult wrote that. That's some Tina Belcher shit. It's like she's trying to be Sabrina, but she lacks the talent and sex appeal and sense of humor to make it work.

Creating characters is all fun and games until they start acting out and steering the plot their own way, as all the good ones do!

Since it's October and it seems timely: What's your favorite cryptid? Mine is the Jersey Devil! I even have a plushie of him! 💙✨

Dollbaby and I took a little trip to the record store today, and check out what I got! 💙✨

Gotta love when the period cramps are so bad you can't focus on writing 😒

Did you know that, in October, the mitochondria becomes the haunted house of the cell? 🏚️💀🎃

I asked my mom how much Tylenol she took when she was pregnant with me to make me this autistic. Her answer got a laugh! 😂

Sometimes it takes the kitchen sink backing up for you to start using the dishwasher 😅😂

Yes, AI is bad because it ruins the environment, steals from artists, and gives out false information, but it's also bad because it takes jobs from real people because it's monetarily cheaper. I feel like we don't talk about that aspect of it enough.

Being a person is hard. I should've been born a fat little seal.

Yes, this book scarred me, potentially for life. Yes, I will be recommending it to anyone who asks 💙✨

Today's writing task: Beefing up this chapter. I somehow have to get it from 337 words to over 1.3k. Wish me luck, because that's a lot for an underwriter like me! 😅😂

I love my mom, you guys. She got so excited by the very presence of a canonically trans character that she had to pause her show to message me! 😂💙

I'm seeing piracy discourse again. Remember: "People should have access to literature" and "don't steal books" are statements that can and should go-exist.

Kids just don't run away to join the circus like they used to, do they?

I have six more books to read before I hit my yearly goal! 👀💙✨

The next leg of the Skeletour is nowhere near me, and even though we couldn't afford to go anyway, I'm lowkey kinda devastated 😅

Why is there not a party size option for Jalapeño Cheetos? That's gotta be a crime of some sort! 😂

Got myself a pumpkin spice coffee! Hell yeah! 🎃✨

I just started reading my ARC of You Weren't Meant To Be Human, and HOLY FUCK THAT'S ONE HELL OF A WAY TO OPEN A BOOK JESUS FUCKING CHRIST 👀

Stealing this from Tumblr because it's absolutely relevant! 💙✨ #writingcommunity

Be gay do crime, yes, but don't litter. Nobody likes a litterbug.

I'm in the middle of an eczema flareup, and it's itchy and ugly and I hate it 💙

I get that the blank slate main characters are supposed to be stand-ins for the reader, but I can't fall in love with a cardboard cutout. If the writer can't be bothered to give their MC a personality, I can't be bothered to read about them 💙

Who left this pumpkin loaf on the floor? 😂💙✨ #caturday

Dollbaby and I had a lovely walk through the park this afternoon! 💙✨

We recently started a rewatch of The Simpsons, and it's Marge's birthday, and she's thirty-four? She has three kids already? I'm thirty-five, and I can't imagine taking care of three kids. I can barely take care of myself! 😅😂

I wonder if switching to present tense would be the refresh Saltwater needs. Can a book set in the past be told in present tense? 🤔 #writingcommunity

Yes, I get a lot of my vintage books from library sales, and yes, I do genuinely like that they have the little library stickers on their spines. It's character, it's history! We love to see it!

I don't quite think the asexual label fits me anymore. Demisexual is probably more accurate. I'm down to clown only with Dollbaby, Babyboy, fictional characters, and two musicians. No one else appeals to me in that way at all. Does demi sound right?

Maybe it's the autism, but I can't learn gradually. I need to sit and study for several days straight with no sleep and no snacks until I know the topic inside and out.

What if we kissed while watching the downfall of Western civilization? 💙✨

Gonna be trying the Save The Cat formula today, see if I can figure out a way to make Saltwater work 👀

"You're thinking about this too hard!" Yeah, dude, I have anxiety. That's what I do.

I'm okay with most changes an editor would wanna make, but there's one I Will Not budge on: It's okay. OKAY. Not OK. OK looks stupid, okay? Okay.

Few phrases annoy me more than "shark-infested waters." Like, dude, it's the ocean. That's where they live.

Okay, but why are the moodboards I make for fics always better than the ones I make for actual books? 😒

If I ever win the lottery, I'm buying a printer. I'd so love to be able to edit my work in physical form!

Saltwater has come to a standstill, and none of my other book ideas are holding my attention, so I've just been focused on fic writing lately. At least I'm still writing? 😅😂

"How would you feel if your child's preschool teacher had multiple visible tattoos?" I'd feel like it means they have a high pain tolerance, so they probably can handle the constant annoyance of being around a bunch of kids without flinching! That's a good thing, Susan!

Remember how much animosity people had for NFTs? Imma need that level of disdain aimed towards AI and its users, too, please.
