It's 12:30 at night. I have heartburn and the most devastating line for a fic just popped into my brain. Fuck .

Husband: Do you want to watch True Detective season 4? Me: Hmmm. Maybe? Husband: It's written, and directed by women. The leads are women, and online misogynists hate it. Me: Hell yes.

“There can’t be that many people with Long Covid, I never see them” as though we don’t know post-infectious syndromes cause many patients to become housebound and bedbound, (the worst of whom can rarely or never post online) the same with previous post-infectious syndromes for millennia

🎊Today is my birthday!! I'm turning 30!!!🎊 Could I ask for a RT as a special gift?🍰 THANK YOU everyone who supports my art, and thanks for staying around! It warms my heart and soul, I apreciate it very, very much 💙🌊 #dnd #ocs

I have a scrapbook of all the comments people have left me over the years. It sits next to my wedding photos and baby photos. Every encouraging comment has helped me SO much.

listen i love ao3 as much as the next guy but ive seen people quit fic writing over the past few years because people comment and engage with authors way less, and then everyone still freaks out when ao3 goes down- if a fic is irreplaceable to u, let the author know!

God bless every single romance/mystery writer out there. Specifically those writing stories set in pre-modern Asia, or 19th century Europe. I am hanging on because I am just waiting impatiently to get to the next chapter.

It's so cold and I gotta get out of bed to shower. This was terrible planning on my part, but I have to go to work. I cannot call out today.

of all the gay love poems in there, this is one of my favorites

sorry i missed the virtual meeting on discord, liz. i got hit with the id verification that happens when the app detects youre young

Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum. Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.

Finally got this one out! Was hard to work on this amongst everything, but I hope it adds something productive to the conversation <3 youtu.be/OLWYR0eTm5I

there is some irony to posting about companies selling your data on Twitter/X while also paying for a blue checkmark

Fuck it. I am going to wear more men's clothes. I have found the EXACT type of winter coat that I've been looking for since 2010, but way cheaper. Wtf?!

Nobody who says, ‘I told you so’ has ever been, or will ever be, a hero.

A scientist can pretend that his work isn't himself, it's merely the impersonal truth. An artist can't hide behind the truth. He can't hide anywhere.

I still cannot believe that Dylan Wang played Daoming Si. I cannot get over how awful and sometimes low-key evil he was to Shancai. I had to quit watching because I was SO mad after every episode. It's a testament to their skills as actors. If I had seen pineapple head out on the streets? Go time.

Apparently there's a Wine Mom division of Auntie Fa? Where do I join? My friends are lame and in denial.

why do so many professional media reviewers not seem to grasp that different genres of stories exist and have different aims?

Blunt rotation, extrovert edition: Zohran Mamdani, Jackson Wang, and Jennifer Lawrence.

I'll be real, I would do ANYTHING for someone cute with brown eyes. Ooh and if your eyes are a really dark brown? Almost black? Hahahaha. I'm a goner.

As we enter the New Year remember fear of making bad art is holding you back. Fear of people not liking your work is holding you back. Rejection is holding you back You'll make bad art, you'll have people not like your work, and you'll be rejected. Moving past it is half the job of being a creative

Guys, I am really high.

oshamir fandom!! so many talented writers, artist, editors, meta authors

PSA: any artists still using Twt… Now anyone can edit your art with Grok and claim it as theirs. Merry Christmas and Please Leave that Cesspit.

KDrama: Would you want to meet your bias? Me: ABSOLUTELY. KDrama: OK, but you're meeting your bias as he has been accused of murder ring your bias wrecker. Me: What the fuck?!

I'm watching #IdolI on Netflix. So far, it is a DELIGHT. Soo Young plays an incredible lawyer that wins impossible cases so she has the money to supoort her favorite idol.

OMG @mariecgould.bsky.social look at this from the set of Bridgerton S4! Am ded!

I've only seen Hou Minghao in fantasy or costume dramas. Bit of a jump scare to see him dressed like a 21st century celebrity.

If you see this, post your favorite Star Wars character.

Next Friday, I am going to the bathhouse, buying makeup, and eating Nando's.

not just heretical, but out of season as well: Jesus' conception is celebrated March 25th, the feast of the Annunciation!! today/tomorrow is about Jesus' GRANDMA getting pregnant with Mary!!! you idiots.

I think what truly enrages me is after reaching calm as a PT fan, I had a fresh new trilogy to love. But now everyone treats me + all sequel fans like scum & we only survive on books. It’s now compelled me to AVOID the MCU if the corpos won’t acknowledge TFA but will give Endgame an unasked rerun.

It continues to be noticeable how much less attention the sequels get from Disney/LF since 2019. The Rey movie hasn't moved since last year, the most we get are comics. Wild considering TFA alone was a massive success.

I'm watching #myhappymarriage and cannot stop crying. Omg. I am on episode 4 and just relate to Miyo so much.

Really cool bluesky feature is you can set it to REMIND you to post alt text on images you post! Incredibly valuable to me as someone with ADHD, who often gets excited and posts things fast as I think of them The app does a little "remember alt text" thing and I'm like OH YEAH

I love every single writer that has written a fic where Colin Bridgerton suffers. You're the best.

Here is a non-exhaustive list of Chinese and Japanese actors that I think would be wonderful in an #apothecarydiaries adaptation.
