Handclasp meme of trans people and autistic people sharing the experience of being yelled at/about by assholes who don't know shit about shit when we just want to go about our lives
an old but good frog for today
🏅you deserve this
A lot of encouraging noises and putting blankets on laps, nothing more interesting sadly
Neve/Sera could be interesting, I imagine them agreeing on some points but not really liking each other personally
We're trying to teach him that laps are good (he likes to snuggle in a bed but almost never gets on the couch with us) and slowly we are finding success
Don't you dare put that baby in pelican mouth.
So many damn raisins!!
Oh hell yeah I really enjoyed this one, I should read it again
I do! Thank you though :)
HAPPY BISEXUAL VISIBILITY DAY
The extra huge bummer is I was feeling very eager to do some writing last night but I was busy submerging my arm in water. I am fairly close to finishing a first draft and I want to get to it today if my arm will let me
Well I found a way to prop my arm on a pillow that mostly let me sleep at night, if I keep it very still the pain mostly fades and the moment I move at all it is incredibly painful. Let's see how well it handles working on a laptop for a few hours 🙃
I'm still mad at him for the man show tbh
Jesus christ this is awful, don't burn yourself is my expert advice
It hurts a LOT but it's all first degree burns so not dangerous
Good to know although sadly we don't have any right now. Maybe I'll get some tomorrow
Had a run-in with some boiling water and now my forearm and the back of my hand are fucked!! Burns are my least favorite kind of pain.
Not non-binary as in "no gender" but nonbinary as in "Roger rabbit gender where whatever's funniest wins"
something that I think a lot, more and more these days, is "aren't you embarrassed? Isn't this embarrassing, for you?"
My consult with the ketamine clinic is in two weeks and I am trying to find the balance between "hold out for two more weeks and then maybe things can get better" and "don't be too hopeful about this because the disappointment if it is just another thing that doesn't help will be overwhelming"
I did like that in a couple of the musical numbers they brought back the thorny vines from the original OP but it did make me just want to watch the original series instead It was fun but I kept thinking about what was missing.
There are a lot of songs that I think are meant to give us more of a sense of emotional weight but I think the time could have been better used giving us non-song story moments. There's no room to breathe at all. We do get a good ANDRE!!! however I can't believe we didn't get an OSCAR!!!!!!!
Enne and I watched the new Rose of Versailles movie last night and honestly I think that is just too much story for a two hour movie! I am not sure if any of the emotional beats would land for someone watching this with no previous RoV exposure.
Sadly the light was not great in the dahlia garden today so I'm not sure how my photos will turn out but!! I saw some of my faves!
You know how sometimes a very ball-motivated dog needs to hold one ball in their mouth at all times even when chasing another one? I just saw a big excited lab who refused to drop the aerobie in her mouth while chasing frisbees
Apparently evangelical tiktok is convinced the rapture is tomorrow? I know zero other details but a friend told me that's what's going on over there
Fangs
Poor baby!!!
It was very difficult! He is incredibly strong and resistant to getting meds squirted in his mouth so it's a two person job for sure.
The now-traditional birthday pie (emerald beaut plum & raspberry + oat crumble top)
We had to give Onyx gabapentin so we could clip his claws today and the poor lad is SO sleepy
thank you! I got a delicious pie delivered today (plum/raspberry with oat crumble top) and I'm looking forward to eating that tonight.
A friend brought me this beautiful bromeliad flower. I admitted it in a vase for two days before I fed it to Jeremy. I couldn't help myself. Here is part 1.
I'm so curious what they initially think of each other and how that changes as they actually get to know each other (better at least, I feel like neither could quite bare their soul to the other)
Nothing hits like cis queer people banding together to be transphobic
Oh now THAT is also an excellent idea
Out of curiosity how do you get consent from a drawing. Like maybe you should worry less about whether or not a cartoon has rights and more about whether real life trans and Palestinian people do
Whoa benedict on pancakes.....an entire world just opened up
Someone is in a fancy vintage car right in front of our house blasting the humpty hump song so loudly it's shaking the building and onyx is VERY displeased, his tail is so poofy
Ah, it turns out we adopted a vampire 🦇
Feels ridiculous to be grateful for any crumb of support but shit is dire out there
Thank you Chiitan ✨🏳️⚧️💗
oh no, I don't think the video was (although I was cooking at the time, so I was distracted) but I hate that this happens at all. way to make me as a deeply depressed person feel valued
YEAH! I can't be sure, obviously, but it was verrrry suspicious
he really is, like a huge cloud to pet
I saw a commercial for a new antidepressant yesterday and I am 80% certain the voiceover was AI generated which is EXTRA DEPRESSING given the subject matter
The big man
You can tell I am a very emotionally stable dude right now because if onyx doesn't have his regular morning snuggles with me I get SO sad
Oh my god 😹 this made my night

epistolary fic: hit 11k words, I read the whole thing all in one stretch tonight to see how it feels as one unit vs just a collection of mini-units and...I think it's coming along pretty well??? great for a first draft so far for sure, we'll see how it eventually polishes up but I feel Powerful
and to be clear it wasn't saving them from GOING to hell it was saving them FROM hell where they already were! I scooped one right outta the flames
my brain does all sorts of things after an edible but thinking "I'm saving this orgasm from hell!" while having an orgasm was one of the weirder recent ones
SO frustrating. I genuinely do not understand why they're like this (other than the fact that I know this is an incredibly understaffed/overworked store).
HANG IN THERE BABY!! #art
Dorian/Vorgoth buddy cop style mission.....they have to learn to accept each other.... imagine Dorian going on a little fancy-lad rant and Vorgoth just swirls their essence in a way that feels like they're raising an eyebrow and says IT IS AS YOU SAY
A group of small children is marching down the sidewalk outside my window singing the fanfare from the final countdown
He really is 🥲
Eel fact: this eel is cute
Intrusive thoughts have been very bad lately and unfortunately most of them are about onyx getting horribly hurt (usually because I did something wrong) but just for extra distress sometimes now enne is getting horribly hurt because I did something wrong
How am I supposed to trust any doctor etc in this situation? But I have to, because most seemingly do not care about covid at all
I did indeed get vaccinated but I'm still mad it was so difficult when all the guidelines say it should not have been, also it just sucks to have to argue with an unmasked medical professional about this shit. I realize almost all medical professionals are unmasked these days but still!
He loves his mousie 🐁🩶
They're letting me get my covid shot today but it was after both pharmacy tech and pharmacist being pretty aggressive with me and making me describe the specific underlying condition that makes me eligible (seems like you should just be able to say "I have one of the ones on your list")
My autocorrect turned veilguard into veilguy which just sounds like the purple dialogue option for a stealth mission Yes it's me, Rook Veilguy
What is with all this "you need Man Stuff to do your Man Activities, buy our soap for your Man Shower" marketing, I feel like I am in 2006 (the year in which my coworkers celebrated my legal name change with Man Gifts like an issue of maxim and axe deodorant and something called ManDelay)
She sure is 🥰
(and trying to figure out how to have a relationship with bull long distance but in my mind this fic is mostly just horrible political bullshit) Not the thing for me to write but I want it so badly
Just real in the dirt politics where when he gets home he realizes everything is a little worse than he remembers and worse than he told everyone in the south it was, it's easier to see with some distance, and it is SUCH a SLOG making any change but he's spending all his time and energy on it anyway
Oh you might like this thought I was exploring with a friend this afternoon: I want the 200k+ word fic that goes from Dorian returning to tevinter through to the reconstruction efforts after the end of VG.
perfection 😙👌
What manner of tarquin thoughts do you have my friend
Oh GOD the few pt appointments I had where the therapist was doing cupping on my thighs.....I had to Keep It Together
www.threebabesbakeshop.com/collections/... it's SO good, the best plums
I really love finding and including fun tiny details like that in fic and it's always fun to see in other people's work! Why not get a little silly with it and pick out the right runes to draw?
I'm not really interested in observing my birthday this year, even less than normal, but I will just order the amazing plum and raspberry pie I buy myself every year around this time and I will take off work monday for a dahlia garden photo trip and I'll pretend it's for no reason in particular
I love little details like this! Perfection
Yesssss
Enne brought me some crispbread crackers and cheese and I feel like a little redwall mouse
(please do not tell me what the official state or walgreens guidelines on covid shots are, I am very aware I am eligible but if the pharmacists do not care to follow those guidelines there isn't much I can do about it)
Made another appointment to try and get my covid shot tomorrow. Let's see if I get to feel humiliated while trying to convince an unmasked medical professional to do their job this time
Yes I'm struggling through what has been nearly a decade of worsened depression at this point and things are deteriorating further, but also I get so sad thinking about what I might have been like if I'd been able to access support as a preteen or teenager. I try not to think about it.
reading about a teenager being lovingly supported by her parents during an intense mental health crisis has brought up a lot of feelings, which I suppose I should have expected
Onyx has started greeting me with the chirp-n-flop routine when I come home, and he's started to enjoy foot-petting when he's in that mood too. It's so so sweet and also makes me miss Milly so much
Nooo it's so sad to lose things this way, where it's just a shitty accident and now you can't fix it. I'm really sorry.
can tell my ambient anxiety is up when I constantly grind to a halt due to thoughts like "oh god I fucked up and forgot something important, or made someone upset with me but I don't remember what it was, what did I do" when the answer, as far as I can tell, is "nothing, bro"
👅
Oh shit Enne got to a wicker man (spider??) boss in silksong and it is sick as hell, the boss designs are excellent
I'm proud of the sonnet I wrote just for myself but it's so personal I have struggled to feel comfortable sharing it outside of a handful of people. but I keep thinking I want to.
hmmmm maybe I should write another sonnet to shove into this epistolary fic just for extra fun, I do enjoy sonneting my last attempt was not great on purpose (composed extemporaneously by someone who was drunk) but what if I tried for something that was ok on purpose
Purr time 🔊
how common is it for photographers to have "Into the Lens" in their heads the entire goddamn time they are taking OR editing photographs or is it just me
well one good thing about depression related memory fuzziness is I can get 80% of the way through a story before I realize I read and enjoyed it just a few months ago, so it can be a mostly new experience 🙃
After so long.....I can finally become a member 😹
How can I focus on work when I have to craft the perfect art commission request
Tell me truthfully, is there any chance I can be a velvet tracksuit guy
My 25th is this weekend 🙃 not going but that feels like such a big number
🎶you were so happy with the things that you said like "he's an insomniac," you laughed, but you're gonna find: a river of fluffy sheep leap past my slumbering eyes too tired to apologize, my love, so kiss me goodnight 🎶
