i finished Imago by @mzakharuk.bsky.social and ohhhh myyyyy godddddd IT'S SO GOOD! one of my favourite works i've read this year! gripping, thrilling, visceral, powerful, i am in love with Ada and Nikola!! it was a struggle to pace myself so i didn't binge it and instead had time to fully enjoy it

when a cat makes cute lil noises at an increasing interval is that a fibonacci squeakuence?

On this our saddest of days, not only should we remember those of us we have lost, but that we should renew our commitment to fight for a better world, where we can live without fear and hostility against us. We have always been here, we are here, and we always will be here.

Binge read more Imago on the train today, aaaaaaaaa IT'S SO GOOD!!!

Please help my bestie Sapphire out if you can! She's an amazing person who doesn't deserve to deal with all of this bullshit!

Finished The Tyrant Baru Cormorant, really liked it. I feel like each book in the trilogy made me like the previous ones more, even though they have their problems. Definitely shouldn't be a fourth, the story's at a good point to end and the sequel hook was a mistake. Overall, enjoyed the series!

Help, I hear the notification in his voice!!!!

okay now i'm another few chapters in there's been less that's just "here is a chapter entirely of dialogue that only serves to tell you the opinions of the characters and not to distinguish their character beyond this, and they all sound the same" but the comphet is increasingly crushing and drab.

halfway through chapter 5 of Emma by Jane Austen, something hit me that i can only describe in fanfic terms. Emma is a prototypical chatfic. entire chapters are just dialogue with barely anything else, barely even "said [name]". characters all talk about the same topics and all sound the same.

i started reading Imago by @mzakharuk.bsky.social yesterday and omgggg it's so good! i'm one chapter in and so hooked, and i just thought "hey, Zakharuk is a familiar name", checked her bluesky, and realised that she's also Emma of dolphindiaries and Cracked Ivory?! waow (based based based) dot jpeg

fuck, maybe i should take my own advice and get around to those novel ideas i have and actually self-pub them. it's not going to make itself exist if i don't.

british spy looking askance at a bottle on the dinner table: "i like hot sauce, especially when it's served at the correct temperature of ninety-eight-point-four degrees fahrenheit."

me barely even a month ago: "maybe it's finally time for me to publish original ideas as a trans indie author? i've got some original novels i want to write and itch would allow me to do that. i'm so excited!" me today: "nevermind" 🙃🙃🙃 (teach me to ever feel excited or hopeful, ugh)

Modern Nightclub/Bar AU fanfic Richard III: "Now is the winter of our discothèque."

me reading TLT: "i have never hated a character as much as the Emperor." me then reading Dorley: "i have never hated a character as much as Dorothy." me reading RCBG: "i have never hated a character as much as Jeff." me reading RCBG Chapter 17: "I HAVE NEVER HATED A CHARACTER AS— (etc)"

spit or swallow? no, secret third thing. sublingual hits your bloodstream faster!

trying to decide which cheese i have to remove from my cheeseboard again. i really need to hire a chedditor.

I finished 'The Library Thief' by Kuchenga Shenjé this morning, and needed to read more of something beautiful so badly I read 'Dulhaniyaa' by Talia Bhatt in a single sitting 😭😭😭😭 Massively recommend both books, my heart is bursting aaaaaaaaaa

"Defibrillator? Well it's certainly not defibrinow," I cackle, doing donuts on my bicycle before racing away from the ambulance. They catch me three days later, after my heart explodes like a racehorse.

a lot of stoats struggle to interpret their own life 😔 ermineutical injustice is serious business

seeing how talia, bee, and aria (and others) are being harassed makes me want to leave this site. i made an account here to just post silly little jokes and keep up with a few accounts. i hoped it wouldn't be as horrendous as other sites, but so many people on here are so deeply racist and cruel

me before: "eh, i haven't listened to chappell roan, she seems cool but i almost never enjoy pop so—" me now: "👷‍♀️🫴🔵 guess i'm listening to chappell roan now"

Garden forks are a thing. If you a think about it, a spade is just a garden spoon.

i'm so fucking sleepyyyyyyy

on firefox. straight up 'googling' it. and by 'it', haha, well. let's just say. referential humour i didn't get.

Me: "It's too tight~ 😣" The optician: "It's okay, sweetie, I'll make it fit 😊" and by it. haha, well. my new frames. 😇

sex dreams on progesterone are insanely detailed goddddd we need to get more tgirls onto prog so i can cuddle her when she wakes up really turned on in the morning and offer to do what she just dreamed about someone doing to her 😵‍💫😵‍💫

I am livid that @enkiducoin.bsky.social was forced to deactivate. This happens over and over again and yet no lessons are learned. She's a brilliant theorist, she's a really good writer but more than anything she's a fucking Person. Too many are eager to forget this last part.

why did you transition? wrong answers only i saw Cassandra in Dr Who in 2005 and learned the virtue of moisturising. that was a slippery slope.

progesterone 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

deleted my pinned because i no longer feel safe making jokes about half the topics i wanted to make this account to make jokes/shitposts/hornyposts about. :/ i'll be sticking around for now because i have nothing else like this, but filtering myself a lot.

genuine question as a new person here, what are posts called? it's not twitter so it's not 'tweets', on cohost there were 'chosts', what's the term here? 🤔 'bleats'? 'blosts'?

i made this account because after cohost folded i felt like i had no social media where i could post without a filter. with this whole thing with s*ngal and bluesky's response to it, i don't feel like i can post freely and i don't know what i'll do about that.

Help, I hear the notification in his voice!!!!

progesterone really does work, wow boobs

why isn't the story mode in Splatoon called a "Clampaign"?

🎵 Oh, you know her, would you look at that yawn / Yeah, you know her, she needs a snooze / She looks like she should be snuggled up going honk shoo

the Sun rises in the East because eastrogen is a feminising hormone and when you kiss a woman you feel really warm before you get atomised by her corona of up to 3 million kelvin. worth.

it's me boy i'm the ps5 pro speaking to you from inside your brain. listen to me boy... don't bother, you don't need me. i'm overpriced with no new games, quality mode still has no frames doo doo do doo yeah! you don't need me boy, fomo's an illusion

it's late at night. i reach for my evening dose of pills that make you green. it's only after i down them that i realise the bottle says 'pills that make you grinch'. it's too late. the transformation has already begun.

"british 🇬🇧"? eurghh, no, you misheard. i'm brattish, i'm from Great Bratting 😣 Although some people think i'm actually from Bratwurst because uh... haha... i'm not Great at it. 😔😢

where can i buy a drone helmet that plays episodes of Kill James Bond into my ears on a loop?

Drone with a bimbo girlfriend who the hive has to order that it doesn't bring home, because they're still finding pink in their systems from last time in places she didn't even go and it's severely impacting productivity
