*twirls hair* how big is your book collection

Pretty big

Unrelated to anything, but would anyone here want to get a (admittedly older) drawing tablet for free ?

It's an Intuos Pro Medium (a PTH-651), complete with pen and penholder. It's not been used in years and we'd love it to have a good home ! We'd only ask you to pay for shipping fees, which, fair warning, can be a little expensive for the US. But we can ship internationally, so if you're interested, send me a message and we'll arrange things !! First come first served :)

Some weird stuff that helps me … I don’t know how to classify the1m :(

Anyway here goes :

#adult colouring book_ this at the end of ur day for 30 minutes _does wonders for ur brain to wind down

#reading a non-fiction first thing in the morning or

# taking a walk like 3k steps at dawn

#if it’s making u sad , put down that book… u don’t have to finish it… I personally haven’t been able to finish crime and punishment or Oliver Twist … it makes me super depressed… it’s ok to not finish a book u started… maybe someday u will pick it up again…

#drink water _kinda basic :) but yea… invest in a quality water bottle (not plastic) bonus if u add lime in it

#no coffee after 1pm unless the world is ending lol _u might hate me now but in a week u will get why…

# stay away from people or situations that drains ur energy _ avoid those over dramatic people

#have at least 1 meaningful conversation a day

# stop watching shorts or TikTok or insta reels _ that shit literally frying ur soul …this one’s difficult so what I do is go in a public cafe or library where I’ll be ashamed to waste my time like that :)

# no screentime after dinner_ keep ur analog activities for after dinner _like reading a physical book, journaling, coloring or organizing ur desk/closet

#see weather forecast and plan ur outfit the day before _

# if u have a dedicated lab/office keep a jacket there +mug and a bowl with 2 spoons :)

#find new places to sit down and eat around campus… rotate places :) this helps with my eating disorder

#clean ur bedroom at least once a week _ with the sheets and everything

#sleep before 12 and wake up before 7 _at least

# share ur struggles with ur peers_ people are surprisingly friendly in academia _specially the old professors :)

#remember the really difficult thing that had u wanting to pull ur hair out … yea that one ☝️ I promise u r gonna be an expert on that given time and effort :) I promise

actually good cleaning hacks from someone who’s been through some shit

Get a steam mop I don’t care how much it is or cheap, just get one

if you have a pet invest in a wet dry vacuum, you will thank me.

get cleaning cloths you actually like the feel of, if you hate microfiber get a cheap set of tea towels and use them instead. Or chop up a dead tee shirt and use that.

plug in vacuums are 2x more powerful than non-plug in vacuums. You trade sucking power for mobility with cordless, so think that over when you get one.

buying a cheap mop every time one gets moldy is cheaper than having to deal with any mold you get from using a moldy mop.

invest in disinfectant/antifungal/antiviral/antibacterial liquid for your laundry, because that stuff makes getting rid of moldy musty musky shit easy. And it cleans your cleaning cloths without getting them greasy or soapy.

to fix “I accidentally left my clothes in the washing machine too long now they smell like mold” thing, you will need antifungal laundry liquid and the literal sun. Wash your clothes on the hottest setting you can with your clothing materials in mind, add the antifungal before you start, let it go for like 2 hours. And put it in the sun to dry. Repeat if it still smells moldy, until it doesn’t anymore, works like a charm!

to clean crystalline dog piss, you will need water, a steam mop, a wet dry vacuum (depending on if it’s in a carpet) dog cleaning spray or vinegar. Basically , rehydrate the piss, clean it up with dog spray or HOT vinegarish water, grab a steam mop and steam it (if not on carpet) and viola it should be okay now.

If it’s in the carpet you will need to rehydrate the piss, then just dowse the piss with water, use the wet dry vacuum to suck up the water, repeat until water comes up clean. Use whatever pet cleaner that’s good on your carpet to get the smell out, Patch test it in the corner of the carpet before you do it on the piss spot, soak up and remaining water from the carpet until it’s dry or blow dry it if you have to. And tada you have a cleaner carpet! The same works for dog shit too.

drain snakes are your best friend if you don’t remember to get the hair out the drain.

have one sponge for wiping down the sink and one for washing your dishes, because sometimes it’s easier to use a sponge to wipe down the sink than a cleaning cloth.

You can put sponges in the dishwasher and it cleans them REALLY WELL, do it everyday if you can.

Invest in a good glass cleaner for glass because when it gets greasy it’s hell.

Koh cleaner will literally cut through grease and oil, and fat. Like it wasn’t even there, if you don’t have the money white vinegar and bi-carbs does the same thing. Though be careful because it’s reactive and might destroy your countertop or pots, just invest in koh your life won’t be the same. (I can clean all the grease off things, that’s how good it works. Plus it doesn’t smell!!!)

Replace your toilet cleaner every 3 months, or make sure you don’t let it fester. That’s more of a hassle than replacing it every now and then.

Get a good dish soap, because you can use it for everything because of how mild it is.

After mopping always steam mop otherwise it will always be streaky or tacky, idk why but steam mops fix this 9/10 times.

there’s more, but I;m too tired.

being on reddit is so godawful lately i need an extension that blocks every post that uses the word chatgpt

[call-me-pup2]

I fear I have pupped too close to the sun 😬

Finally got the human dog bed thing full of foam and it takes up a quarter of the living room ���� I knew it was big but I really underestimated it. I.e I may have to legit get rid of my bed for this instead 😅 Maybe I could put it on top of my current mattress but it was supposed to be a nap spot for the living room and it can't be since its too big ;-;

I swear to god- if this is a bot/a scammer and it’s starting on Ao3 (the reason I stopped updating on ff.net)- I am going to pull all my stories off the damn website and just never going to post shit again. I am OVER this and would rather daydream about my stories alone in peace, than have to worry about this bullshit.

Fanfic writers already get little to no engagement- so seeing someone commented on your work is fucking exciting and each one, even if it’s one that says “❤️❤️❤️” MEANS THE WORLD TO ME. Writers will understand this. Just knowing someone has appreciated something to comment anything positive at all, makes our fucking day!

Yes I write for myself, but I don’t have to post it, editing and changing formats etc takes time that I don’t need to be spending. I can just write in word/google docs and read it whenever I want, but I also love sharing my unhinged stories with people- who may also be interested in my particular brand of weird.

But if this is a thing? If this keeps happening?

I’m so out.

Maybe I’ll create a discord for and have channels where I just post my work and the three people who read it can go and read from there? I dunno. This has just put a massively sour taste in my mouth >_<

[ivy-saurs]

YAYYY i just tidied and vacuumed my room and i FINALLY put my clean clothes away that were sitting on my chair for ages!!!

[cookiiefreak]

Did you ever write a actual fic about pure vanilla x knight reader or am I crazy

Don’t worry, you’re not crazy, I am currently working on it! I’ve been struggling with the plot so it’s taking a bit longer than I had thought 😅
