People who won't listen to songs longer than like 4 minutes disturb me. Who think something as short as 6 minutes is excessively long. You would die in fright at some of the music I listen to on a daily basis

Made the mistake of telling my family that if I ever won the lottery, all the money left over after buying a nice house and getting my loved ones out of debt would go to reversing climate change, and my dad told me that it should go to world hunger relief efforts and humanitarian aid instead. Which is just- where the fuck do you think the food is coming from, asshole?? The fucking sky??? Some god that you think pulls miracles from thin air??????? Healthy ecosystems are ABUNDANT with food and the people who are starving rn are the ones who are going hungry because of overfishing, land exploitation, and climate change what the FUCK do you think fixing the ecosystems would do otherwise

I’m reminded of that post about how goths and people who wear only lots of pink are actually the same because “wearing only one color” is a specific choice in opposition to just looking Normal
I’m flying to a friend’s wedding today, and I recently acquired from my neighborhood free page a very pretty vintage suitcase in like a brocade upholstery texture in all of my good colors, so of course I needed a coordinated airport outfit à la Midge Maisel. You guys don’t know me, but I usually dress very put together, in what my sister calls Outfits, with a capital O to distinguish it from just wearing clothes. And since getting a full time job I’ve been slowly adding to my collection of vintage and 50’s-vibes clothes, because I just really like that aesthetic (my bridesmaid dress for the wedding is a vintage tea dress I got from Etsy. The fabric is in great condition but I had to reinforce pretty much every seam with my sewing machine, because the structural integrity of the original thread was breaking down, so that was an interesting learning experience).
All of which is to say that I Dressed Up for the airport in a vintage-y outfit that coordinates perfectly with some of the colors of my suitcase, and my hair is curled, and I have a vintage leather purse that my grandma gave me that matches her watch that I’m wearing and the shoes she bought me last summer at the same vintage store that my skirt came from, and a teenage-ish girl with whatever you call the 2023 teenage equivalent of emo/punk vibes, like the dark maroon mullet and not a lot of makeup and dark comfy clothes but like, very on purpose, told me I look cool when I walked past on the way to security
And like, she Gets It! We have different fashion goals but I think we put a similar degree of intention into the way we look compared to just wearing regular clothes. Which is cool! It’s validating. Not that I really need validation, but it’s always nice to get compliments, of course. And the way I dress is really not terribly distinctive most of the time, other than being Outfits and a little dressier than maybe the norm is, like I think most people who see me one time in passing would see that I look Nice but not necessarily see it as a cultivated Look. But punk mullet girl gets it.

Since I can't go back to work until next week, I've started putting more of Fal's pre-existing stories up on Ao3. I've put 4 up so far and I should be able to finish his second arc, at the very least... Well, if you can call 20k-ish words an arc.
Shoutout to @elektroyu for being the first person to leave me a bunch of likes. ;o;
