look how they massacred my boy

I just need like three other people who also feel like absolute gremlins about this, and maybe the lj culture of commentfic to magically reappear

it would be sooooo cooooool if the endless smoke detector beeping from a building somewhere in this neighborhood would stop

love to go away with friends, but also love to be home, with my own bed and my own pillow and my own cats

I keep trying to explain to the people I'm on vacation with that tumblr (and fandom) have literally ONLY JUST realized ryan gosling is a hot guy who makes movies and the hilarious ripple effects this is having. look at this. H I L A R I O U S.

Some of us just don't like getting colds

this is simply the most perfect thing I’ve ever seen

I'm not liveblogging PHM (I'm definitely probably not doing that) but I do need to say oh my god the soundtrack is so good it's UNREAL

having listened to nothing but top 100 hits of the 70s for a month, I can confidently say the soundtrack of the nice guys is much better than ACTUALLY listening to 70s music. (yes there is 70s music in it. it's better though.) just exactly the waka-chika waka-chika disco noises you want.

I am treating myself to three movies today (my sister, rolling her eyes: “is it the fall guy, project hail mary and the nice guys” YES OKAY, YES IT IS) so you are warned and welcome to mute me

the fall guy is a wonderful movie full of amazing stunts but for my money the funniest shot is ryan gosling taking his helmet off to shake out his hair on the beach, shot fully as if he is the hottest girl alive

just finished Star Shipped by Cat Sebastian which is really really good, and I have some knitting in a cozy cabin so despite the rain this is a lovely sunday

and for the lady, perhaps a little

one of the absolute worst experiences, listening to someone beta what you've written while you're in the same room, pretending not to notice every time she just keeps typing and typing and typing and typing........

I guess I am too used to living in a walkable city; google thinks the closest knitting store (I need a tapestry needle) is a nine minute drive but a TWO HOUR walk??????

we are at a house in the woods where previously I have seen a bunny and a fox, and just now I saw THE LARGEST WOODCHUCK out on the porch and said "oh my god, a woodchuck????" and somehow the dog, who was napping in the other room, came RUNNING in barking his head off.

failed the Japanese fluency exam by one point and left Japan to go to grad school to be a teacher

RELEASE THE SIX HOUR CUT OF THIS MOVIE, I DEMAND THIS FOOTAGE www.reddit.com/r/ProjectHai...

WFH except we have gone to a cabin in the woods with friends for the long weekend so I only have one monitor and no mouse or external keyboard and that makes my job basically impossible

Don't ever try to tell me cats aren't emotionally intelligent. Like yesterday I was having a really terrible day and the second I got home my two boys came right upstairs and dunked their tails in my coffee then immediately threw up on the cleanest part of the carpet so take that cat haters

lol it me

HOW DID I MANIFEST THIS?!!??!?

MY BRILLIANT FRIEND JESS!!!!!

I have hated spencer pratt since the hills, yes I am that old, and none of this is surprising to me, what an absolute piece of shit he has always been

there is nothing as validating as hearing from someone who is still at a job I quit that he is also being treated like shit and wants to quit and I was 100000000% right to leave. (I mean, I’m very sorry he’s having a bad time, to be clear.) I miss teaching a lot but whooooo I don’t miss that.

lololol my instagram algo is nothing but arsenal victory celebrations, this is the price I pay for love

oh hey! I forgot I preordered this in January. I’m very excited to read it.

In other news, y'all were right. I adored Project Hail Mary. It would have been a disaster with anyone less charismatic than Ryan Gosling, but that man's comedic timing is a national treasure.

reblog of "perhaps bsky will stay up today so people can actually see this post"

pls do not make fun of my doofy foxes they are doing their best

last night the a/c was broken at my pilates studio. this morning it's hot as hell even during my 6 am run. I am trying to keep my corporeal form from falling apart but the weather is really testing me.

a million blessings on the cow of whoever originally made the ao3 posting google doc that auto-formats all your italics for you, you are a real one and I hope you're having a great day

birthday present from my sister is this gorgeous yarn bowl that is almost too beautiful to use it has been sniff approved by Hex

got a very funny ao3 comment thanking me for writing but couldn't I have waited until their chemistry exam was over because they should be revising rn not reading more fic???? me: in my defense I posted this in 2022

NO to going across the aisle for civility’s sake but YES to joining JFREJ JFREJ.org/join

extremely predictable of me to absolutely love Platform Decay, would read one million more words

so far this weekend two friends have watched the nice guys and texted me, and two friends have watched PHM and texted me. I am a monster and I’m only growing stronger!!!!!!!!!!

watching a japanese drama that's fake married-to-real in love and it's easy to follow (he wants a bigger apartment because he's in love with her, she thinks he's annoyed she's always in his way) and then suddenly my dude is yelling out his secret future intentions to the mountains and I'm like ?????

she’s in oakland, someone tell interpol

extremely dangerous point in the writing experience where I know I ought to leave it alone so I can come back fresh in a few days and find the parts that don't make sense but I simply can't stop poking at it

omg the fic is done so I don't need to listen to top hits of the 70s on my long run today 🥹

instagram choosing violence this morning, here is Ryan Gosling explaining he can knit "like nobody's business" www.instagram.com/reel/DYW1qr0...

I created this google doc on April 26th and today May 15th the draft is done with 49k words. truly just a fugue state of MUST WRITE MORE WORDS like I have rarely experienced before, holy cow

this fic is set in 1979 and the DSM-III didn't codify "panic disorder" and panic attacks until 1980 but can you all forgive me if I fudge just this ONE date

a week ago my library hold for Platform Decay was 5 months. today it is suddenly available. I must assume this is the work of Zohran Mamdani, the Only Good Mayor We've Ever Had

very funny to see the jetlag finale hitting youtube one week after nebula, because now every reddit post is GODDAMN IT, SAM

wip wednesday adjacent, I could just post this instead of a fic summary tbh (the nice guys is an extremely funny comedy I swear)
