Should go without saying but never date a cop and christ never marry one. Rule of thumb if he's legally untouchable he's ethically unfuckable. You don't like that cop, you like buff men in tight clothing. I can show you more of those, better ones. Take my hand.

chronic pain is so overstimulating and i think that's so overlooked. sometimes im not even upset or crying from pain but just because i cannot stand my brain constantly THINKING about the pain or feeling something sharp and stabby in my back. like it's not the pain itself, it's just how overwhelming it can be, how much it kinda consumes your thoughts.

Can someone make a browser extension for me that will automatically convert all the alternate names in Silmarillion fics to the standard (mostly Sindarized) names that are in the published text?

I know people love all the alternative names, and I’ve truly got nothing against them — they’re super interesting and give lots of added context and nuance to the characters! But my dumb brain just can’t keep track of the half dozen different ways to identify every Fëanorian, and I need something to put them all back in the framework I recognize from the book so I can enjoy everything more easily!

hit a slump of depression for Reasons Known™. hubs asked me when was the last time i played a proper video game. i legit couldn't remember. so i've been prescribed minecwaft for a few days. attempting to focus more on that and less on my phone.

reason #15 of said depression slump is because i have an idea for a book, well ok like 5 books but let's just focus on the one book about seeds. but i legit cannot get over the fact that there are 5 million books on seeds, why or how would mine be any different and why would anyone care?

hubs says ignore that thought and do it anyway... but that's easier said than done.

does anybody even read books anymore? like a book you can hold in your hand and smell the ink. not read online like an article.

I haven’t read Yuwu 7 yet but I read the authors note. :/

Here’s the thing, I love this series. I love the characters. As an artist, I understand when your work doesn’t live up to what you wanted it to be. However, Meatbun’s message felt almost insulting to the readers, especially the readers who love the series. It’s okay to feel like something isn’t your best work but that isn’t something that needs to be shared with the fans. Meatbun basically saying Yuwu sucks makes me feel dumb for liking it.

I was so excited to read volume 7 and this has really killed my joy about the whole series.

Here’s a quick rundown of the things in my brain that aren’t letting me sleep:

I haven’t posted a fic since 2021 and I want to write something to post this weekend but what? What fandom? What story?

I tried to crochet a baby blanket for my sister in law and it turned into a triangle and it’s still just about the nicest thing I’ve ever crocheted so I’m sending it to her anyway.

I have been suffering from eczema on my eyelids for fucking months and I sought advice from a woman in a cosmetics store (I have seen seven doctors and the eye doctor six times and consulted various pharmacists) and she took me to the skin care section and started recommending me eye creams that were all anti-aging and kept saying “I know you won’t need to care about that for years yet and your age but it’s still really good.” And first of all, it’s not good for eczema, so jot that down. It dries the skin out more. And second of all, it was my birthday a week ago and I turned 41, so… but I felt bad for bugging her so I bought some eyeshadow primer that she promised would help me. I don’t wear fucking eyeshadow but I didn’t want to hurt her feelings. But if anyone has advice on how to fix my eyes, I’d be so grateful.

I had a SURGERY on my HEAD the day before my birthday and it was so weird. And there are dissolvable stitches. Gross.

Listen, I think that’s all. Thank you for listening. Here is a birthday selfie of me and Tumbleweed, who tries his best to be the best boy.

UPDATE

Hey guys…

I wasn’t even sure if I was going to post this but my situation has gotten to the point where my family and I are scared for our lives.

A few years ago my parents, sister and myself have moved and my sister started going to a new high school.

She adjusted fairly well, she got a group of friends and she was passing all her classes.

But something changed in the middle of her sophomore year. She stopped hanging out with her friends and up until recently my parents and I had no idea why.

One of her “friends” and her had a falling out so she was kicked out of the friend group. She still hung out with a few people here and there but for the most part she found a different group of friends.

It’s been two years and she hasn’t spoken the the girl she fell out with since. They shared ONE class together so for the most part they don’t interact, if at all.

My sister is a very timid person. She puts up a tough front but in reality she hates confrontation. So believe me when I say she has no malicious intent towards this girl.

This girl, who we’ll call Regina, is what you would call mentally unstable. According to my sister (and Regina herself but we’ll get to that later), Regina jokes about Arson and Murder all the time. And possibly about hurting others or herself every time she has a pair of scissors. To the point where it’s a “run joke” in Regina’s friend group.

So my sister makes a few off handed comments here and there because, newsflash we live in a country where you have the freedom to say whatever you want! It’s not even like she gossips, she’s just warned some lower classmate of Regina’s “Jokes”.

And recently she’s been having some problems with this chick. But today was the final straw. I found this note and I was so pissed at Regina! Regina wrote up this note with hearts on it (She DREW love-hearts on it, it’s not even like the paper came with it).

She basically said “why are you so obsessed with me? We’re not friends anymore! Stop talking about me. People will find out on their own I like arson and murder! And stop trying to get in on the scissors joke!”

Well guess what? My sister has been threatened with a box cutter by a different kid in the ONLY class these two share! And another thing! This chick wrote down the exact day her and my sister stopped being friends!

I asked her about it and she said Regina left it on her windshield. We told our parents and my sisters and I are getting some outside opinions from our friend groups outside the district so they don’t even know Regina but they’ve all agreed that she’s a psychopath. Even our parents agree that she’s sick in the head!

And I’m shaking while I’m writing this. I needed to get this out there to let you guys know what I’ve been dealing with and why I haven’t been posting recently.

My sister gave me full permission to post this and even asks for some advice so if you guys would leave some it would be greatly appreciated by her.

She doesn’t even feel safe sleeping at night anymore because this chick is harassing her.

Oh and if “Regina” is reading this which is highly unlikely but still never a zero chance I only have one thing to say to you; 🖕

rip to a webcomic character I've known for 10 years.

I’ve listed the flowers we still have from the wedding for sale on FB marketplace, and the amount of absolutely insulting messages I have gotten… Like, have y’all not priced out flowers for your wedding yet? Or maybe you have and that’s why you’re browsing FB marketplace for them. However, it’s not my responsibility to give you something for cheap or free. 😬

So my birthday is this Friday and I'm unfortunately in between jobs currently so if anyone wants to send me some birthday money to help cover my bills until I start a new job next week, I'd so appreciate it!

Any advice for a trans woman who can't stand to look in the mirror?

I caught a glimpse of myself and I didn't like it.

Sorry, but I just wish the outside reflected the inside.

I hate that the wait list for a gender identity clinic is so long in the UK.

What I hate more, is that the wait list was up to 3 years when I first got myself on the register.

And that, just as I approached 3 years, the timeline got pushed back, making it up to 6 years.

And now the timeline stands at between 6-10 years.

FUCK THE TORY GOVERNMENT!!!
