Wow. Just wow. That is NOT a good look for Crypton.

Jamie deserves to go international. Her music is amazing.

How the fuck do you neglect to get a visa for someone you’re advertising as your lead act oh my god

I love how “Vermoni” doesn’t actually include Vermont

Not me checking my window as I read this and seeing that golden sunrise and getting all emotional

autumn is really like. i brought you some sunlight from when you were 10. didn't the world feel so bright to you then? i'll drench your hands in syrupy nostalgia, so everything you make is stained bittersweet. i'll ruffle your hair with an ice-kissed breeze--it'll be the kindest touch you've had in years. you finally feel like a part of something grander. i'm the last warm hand you hold before winter surrender.

TIL that Chinese kids in the 2000s called emo/scene fashion “杀马特” (“shamate“) , or “smart” style.

I love learning about alternative subcultures <3

Today I learned that you can go to the Wii Sports wiki and see the stats of every CPU Mii.

So, if you want the satisfaction of beating Matt, you should play Tennis, Baseball, or Cycling.

I heard Breach at a listening party and I cried

can’t wait to hear breach and cry

Very positive and happy indeed!

You know, if you're going to dye a fountain for some cause, you might want to think seriously about what visual effect your choice of color will have when added to water ...

I wish I saw this years ago. I fear that the fractures in my extended family are beyond repair, but I will nonetheless keep this in mind if I see anyone else start falling down the pipeline.

Also, if you’re looking for community, fandoms can be an option. Especially if there’s a local group in your area that meets regularly.

My mother is all into homesteading and off-grid living videos right now. Every time I check up on her, this is what she wants to talk about.

It gives her a sense of peace and purpose I guess. Which is good, she’s been struggling to find that with her injuries and condition. She’s learning skills, and feeling prepared for “the worst”. Like I can’t get her to stop watching conspiracy theory bullshit on YouTube so at least this kind of content alleviates some of the anxiety the other content amplifies, because she feels like she can do something now to secure her safety later.

But to get through these conversations, I have to tell myself— hey, if natural disaster comes our way, some of this might be useful. But I know she’s not just thinking a big storm or natural disaster. She’s preparing for the collapse of society. And I don’t know how to break it to her that we wouldn’t survive that. You can make long lasting candles with crisco? Cool. Where you going to by crisco when society collapses? You’ll stock up now? Ok cool. What will you do when it runs out? Honestly, before it runs out, what will you do when people with guns come to take your various stockpiled supplies?

If we hit a point where society collapses, we’re done for. Food, medicine, etc. we can’t survive without society, without a world where people are working together trying to help each other out.

So, I’ll go through with this shit in the name of natural disaster preparedness, and because it helps her. But that’s as far as I’m willing to put energy into it. I refuse to prepare for, bet on, or hope for the collapse of society. I’d rather spend my energy trying to prevent society collapsing, what little part I can play in that. I’d rather spend my energy supporting people in my community. I’d rather work and build towards a better future, not prepare for the worst.

wosh u hair

how it feels to wash your hair and brush your teeth and have clean clothes on

Ain’t that the truth

god gives his most niche fandoms to his most autistic warriors

I feel like I’ve lost the whimsy of major holidays as I grow up.  As a kid, I was like “yay Halloween time to be spooky and weird”, and then I went through a phase where I was like “actually I prefer Christmas, but no, not the commercialized version, the church version” And then I went through a pretentiously emo phase which rekindled my love for Halloween and I wanted to celebrate Halloween every day. 

And now that I am an adult with responsibilities, both holidays feel kinda... meh. 

Christmas is “I gotta get my gift shopping in as soon as possible so that I don’t get slammed by crowds and what if I mix up the things my family members like and give them the wrong gifts??”

And Halloween is “I don’t have the time to go to Halloween events and none of the kids in my neighborhood actually go trick-or-treating in my neighborhood, so this is really boring”.  And since stores start selling their seasonal items earlier and earlier each year, it just doesn’t feel that special. 

I miss being a kid.

THIS DOES NOT WORK IF YOU'RE AUTISTIC.

You'll think it will work because you are bored out of your mind, and then when you actually do it your inner autism creature will FREAK OUT and next thing you know you are trying to hide a meltdown simply because you keep getting lost in the store and even though you are craving soda putting it in the cart feels wrong because you usually put juice in the cart and not soda and then you try to go home after checking out but you've never traveled this way before so you listen to an artist that was your comfort artist in order to ease your anxiety but it's been at least a month since you've listened to them so they're no longer familiar enough to ease your anxiety on the road--

So you drive in silence. With your soda. Taking deep breaths and telling yourself everything will be ok.

AND THEN YOU MISS YOUR EXIT
