Happy 44th birthday to this absolute heart throb of a man, possibly the happiest human to ever grace the earth. Will never understand how he manages to be so humble, positive, quirky, and gorgeous 🤧❤️

I use em dashes religiously

Has no one ever heard of Katherine Mansfield?

"If you use em dash in your works, it makes them look AI generated. No real human uses em dash."

Imaging thinking actual human writers are Not Real because they use... professional writing in their works.

Imagine thinking millions of people who have been using em dash way before AI becomes a thing are all robots.

Dear European moots, we gotta discuss eurovision 🙌 who were your favourite acts?! I've never liked so many acts in one year and didn't know who to choose as my no.1 (also have never been so disgusted with the televoting outcome, iykyk).

Personally, Lithuania, Italy, Ukraine, and Latvia are my top 4. I cannot choose one of them to be my favourite, they were amazing. Portugal, Albania, and France would be my runners up.

i should really revive my actual professional work tumblr, huh. i havent had an actual project tumblr in many a decade.

a revival time, perhaps

This is probably such a random post to make, but I fr think that fic writers need more recognition.

I've been inactive on here since I started my first year of university, because sometimes we must prioritise the more important things in life 😔 I haven't written anything since March/April of 2024, which was a year ago. I have bouts of wanting to write, others of not wanting to - I already write and read a lot since I'm doing an English Literature degree, so it does get tiring.

However, sometimes I read fics which really encourage me to improve my writing, even if it is in the form of fan fiction ... and smut. And one of the most inspiring people is @nereidprinc3ss , in specific her 'Do You Believe Me Now?' series. To explain how detached I've been from tumblr: the last time I checked, the series had SEVEN parts, not TEN - I did a little giddy dance when I realised I had new chapters to read.

I literally read it from the beginning until the end in one day, just for old times' sake; and as per usual, without fail, her writing gives me a new sense of inspiration. It would take me ages to quote all of my favourite parts (and unfortunately exams are a thing and I have to study), but this specific part from Chapter 2 always gets to me when I read it:

"Somehow the way he strokes your hip feels more nurturing than sexual. It’s like he has sex and chaste affection on tap, able to turn them on and off at will. You’re happy to drown in either. Ideally, both."

It's poetic in an effortless way, which makes me simultaneously jealous and in awe of her talent. I can't lie and say my writing hasn't seen better days, but I've been writing so many academic essays in the past few months, I've forgotten how to write creatively. Nonetheless, I am reminded that improving my writing doesn't only need to come from reading famously published books, but also talented tumblr writers. In a world where AI is making people lazy and devaluing art, it's people like Sam who give me hope that there are still individuals out there who love writing, properly.

Hello, my name is Reid. Keep reading for more about me

My name is Reid. I'm 23 years old, I use they/them pronouns, and I'm currently living inside your walls.

I do way too many things at once. I read, draw, write, make games, play instruments, paint, sew, sing, play games- that's not even half of it, I'm just tired of writing.

I like Baldur's Gate 3, Dragon Age, Don't Starve, Magic The Gathering, Stardew Valley, Fairy Tail, Dungeons & Dragons, The Magnus Archives, Breath of the Wild, Critical Role, Dungeon Meshi, Full Metal Alchemist, and Minecraft

I post about “that old man” (Emmrich Volkarin, Elias Bouchard, or Maxwell Don't Starve) in my free time.

I listen to nothing but folk music and weird internet kid stuff. I love The Crane Wives, Fish in a Bird Cage, Spark Bird, The Oh Hellos, RABBITOLOGY, The Arcadian Wild, Mitski, Laufey, and a lot more.

I have a heart condition and I am disabled- I do talk about that quite a bit, so beware!

Sometimes I type with all lower caps for the aesthetic but in reality it's because i think it makes me look cooler than i am

#reidisms - posts by me!

the absolute disgusting thoughts I have about s3 reid and prentiss is embarrassing

Emily Prentiss & Spencer Reid in Season 3

I wanted to say thank you so much for all the amazing positive feedback I've been getting on my fics, even ones I thought were close to mediocre, it means the world to me!

I'm also getting a lot more requests and it makes me so happy! But please be patient, because it takes me a while to write them and I also have a part-time job at the same time (well ... more of an internship but I still got work to do).

Although I'm working on a request atm, I will be writing a part 2 to both A Helping Hand and An Oblivious Genius. I will probably work on all my requests first, unless I'm not feeling them and I want to try out the sequels :) if you have any suggestions for how these fics continue, please send them my way!

The duality of man

[spiritsbard]

It genuinely sucks being in constant pain. I have so much I want to do at katsu and my body just cannot physically keep up with it. I am in so much pain but all I want to do is have fun.

I've seen people say mel is the spencer reid of the pitt. But really thinking about it the one cursed with reidism is probably victoria javadi

Child prodigy scarily young for their field

Stupidly awkward but very fucking smart

Mommy issues

Spencer is/was an FBI agent that couldn't use a gun Victoria is a med student that fainted at the sight of an injury

Immediate crush on their coworkers who brush them off

No understanding of time and place (javadi openly judging patients and reids numerous tangents)
