was tagged by the lovely @thiefbird to "make a new post and share 1-2 (a few) sentences from your most recent unposted WIP(s) with zero context – Let your followers guess!"

from "misdiagnoses", of course!!

At present, Wilson felt very little. If he focused, squinting into the pebbled ceiling above House’s couch in the dark, he could feel the bruises forming on his knuckles where he had punched his desk earlier, and his eyes and head ached, but the pain was distant, like a light from underwater. The only indication that his body wasn’t going completely numb was the sensation of his blood rocketing around his body, in and out of his heart.

and i will tag @t3tr0m1n0 and @17yearcicada to do the same!!!

Fandom: Chess - Rice/Ulvaeus/Andersson Rating: General Audiences Relationships: Svetlana Sergievsky/Florence Vassy, Anatoly Sergievsky/Florence Vassy, Frederick Trumper & Florence Vassy

found you at last

When Svetlana met Natalia, it felt like a miracle. Natalia turned her world upside down. Natalia felt like a revelation, like everything had been leading to her. Men had looked at her with desire in the past, but she looked at Svetlana like she saw her—and she liked what she saw. Svetlana didn't stand a chance. By the time Molokov knocked on her door, she’d had time to reckon with the whole thing. She’d had time to get angry.

happy secret santa @17yearcicada!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

9 people you want to know better, tagged by @cinaedos , im honored thank you so much❣️❣️

Last song you listened to: The Man With the Horn by Miles Davis 🫀 Looked into Miles Davis's discography cuz his music is mentioned in Stone Butch Blues in relation to the character Ruth (whom i love) and im wanting to get more into jazz! i like the music but havent delved too far into the genre itself yet, if tht makes sense.

Currently watching: Star Trek The Next Generation! my first foray into star trek was a couple years ago with the best one (DS9), and i wanted to see more of Worf and Lwaxana cuz i LOVED them in it, as well as see some other popular characters firsthand :3 its goofy, im really loving a lot of the cast, even tho im still in s1! also watching WWDITS s5 as episodes release and i remember it loll

Currently Reading: Unfortunately haven't started a new book yet, but I recently-ish finished What is Not Yours is Not Yours by Helen Oyeyemi, and have a few books I plan to read soon (Ancillary Mercy / Ann Leckie, Pale Fire / Vladimir Nabokov, and House of Leaves / Mark Z. Danielewski).

Current Obsession: i have been busy FOREVER recently, but i have developed a hyperfixation on data since starting TNG - he and my responsibilities have been the only thoughts in my head for at least a week lmao 💀 hoping to get more time for something creation-focused soon tho 🙏🙏 if the gods of problems and issues smile upon me

tagging 9 more of my wonderful mutuals <3 no pressure if ur uninterested in this sorta thing! @nokose / @pansyfemme / @minxxikuo / @17yearcicada / @doghome / @locallibrarylover / @boyplushie / @toamstess / @razzafrazzle

🪰Every 17 years when the weather warms, periodical cicadas become a news event. East of the Great Plains in the northern U.S., millions of seventeen-year cicadas (Magicicada septendecim) burst forth from the ground. Why this mass emergence? It’s an effective adaptation that allows these insects to overwhelm potential predators. But sheer numbers shouldn’t lull cicada fans into complacency, for the insects do face stressors, particularly ongoing forest habitat destruction and pesticides. For now, research into the actual numbers and population dynamics of periodical cicadas is more important than ever. 📸The Museum's latest special exhibition Extinct and Endangered: Insects in Peril, opens TOMORROW, Wednesday, June 22! It will feature uniquely powerful macrophotography by Levon Biss (@levonbiss), highlighting 40 incredible but imperiled species from specimens in the Museum's world-class research collection, including the seventeen-year cicada, in large-format photographs, some as large as 4.5 by 8 feet! Link in bio for more details.

Cicadas are so cool. UT has lots of great info on their site about them, including maps, misconceptions (turns out they don’t feed on foliage) and even info on how to cook them! Did you know there are 3 distinct species of 17-year cicadas? Google “UT Periodical Cicadas” for lots of great info. Wish I were getting to see and hear more of this 17-year Brood X. . . . . . #cicada #cicadas #broodx #yamahar6 #dunlop @utiag #17yearcicada #ut #agriculture (at Nashville, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQr3cHHhKnI/?utm_medium=tumblr
