first serotonin poisoning now mold poisoning. what’s next? alcoholism?

[okapiandpaste]

apparently moldy air has been rising from the basement at night at around 1 PM which is when my sleeping meds usually kick in and yesterday morning at 5 AM I awoke crying profusely because my eyes were itchy before nearly blacking out in the bathroom. thankfully, my house has 2 floors so I can wait out tonight on the 1st floor where the moldy air hasn’t sequestered.

but holy fuck I might have mold poisoning?? and none of my 4 other family members who sleep on the 2nd floor seem affected at all? what.

Happy birthday to our dearest friend, Hubert!!! 🖤

Oh man, I can't believe this is the sixth (???) consecutive year that I drew for his birthday. I love him so much 🥺

This idea looked cooler in my head but anyways, his BE friends are just a reflection in the morning light, idk if that's obvious but I tried LOL

Reached the halfway point of A Study in Scarlet

There’s a bunch of right-wing people posting memes about “”DOGE”” making the government more efficient by removing funding from “”dumb bug researchers”” and I am now realizing how little the average person knows about entomology and its importance

Excuse me while I get sad .

my 3 favorite food-related tropes in fantasy games are definitely inexplicably anachronistic foods like pizza or burgers in old-timey settings, mushrooms that just naturally grow with the cooked shiitake cross-mark on them, and of course the dubious purple food. dubious purple food is like an old friend to me atp. I smile whenever I see her.

🌍✨ A Voice from Gaza: Fighting for Hope ❤️‍🩹

Hi, my name is Mosab , and I’m from Gaza. Life here has been harder than I could ever imagine, but today I’m sharing my story with hope in my heart, because your kindness has already given us so much strength.

This journey hasn’t been easy. The war has taken 25 family members from us—25 beautiful souls we loved deeply. Their laughter, their presence, their love… all of it is gone, leaving behind memories that are both precious and painful. Every day, I carry the weight of their loss, but I also carry their spirit, which gives me the strength to keep going.

Our Journey So Far

When I first reached out, I couldn’t have imagined we’d make it this far. Your support has been a light in these difficult times, and we are so deeply grateful for every single contribution.

But the road ahead is still challenging. Every day, we’re reminded of how much we’ve lost and how much we still need to rebuild.

Here’s what life in Gaza looks like for my family right now:

🏠 Safety: The uncertainty of tomorrow weighs heavily on us.

😢 Loss: The absence of the 25 family members we’ve lost is a pain we carry every moment.

💔 Dreams on Hold: The future feels so far away when survival takes all our strength.

How You Can Help Us Cross the Finish Line Even the smallest act of kindness can make a difference:

$5 may seem small, but for us, it’s a little relief, a moment of comfort, and a reminder that kindness still exists. ❤️

Why Your Support Matters Your kindness isn’t just about helping us meet our goal—it’s about reminding us that we’re not alone in this fight. It’s about hope. It’s about survival. And it’s about giving my family a chance to rebuild our lives, even in the face of unimaginable loss.

Thank you for helping us get this far. Your generosity and compassion have already brought us closer to a better tomorrow, and for that, I’m endlessly grateful.

With all my love and gratitude,

Mosab and Family ❤️

most confusing part of the fe3h fandom was (and still is) ppl acting like they’d never encountered a single trope in their lives before. significant portions of fans went out of their way to call the jrpg protagonist who kills god and fundamentally kind person groomed to be a weapon archetypes unsympathetic. please be so serious right now.
