I spontaneously found THE scent ive been looking for all summer!!! It was a limited edition so I could only get 30ml but it’s exactly what I’ve been looking for! -> Jo Malone Orange Bitters. I think they bring it back now and then? I remember having seen the pretty bottles online from years ago but apparently it was back for a limited time. Really exciting omg.
I read to much fan fiction but I feel the need to share these two. Both are on ao3 by Harriet_vane
Holy shit they are really well done like please read them I’m obsessed
1: Roll To Charm Person by Harriet_vane (it’s in Wills POV. Will needs to find a date to his moms wedding because he thinks she’s worried about him. Mike offers to Fake date him. Shit goes in a direction we all excepted. They are both kinda dumb but it’s really fluffy for the majority of the fic 10/10) (59,047 words)
2: That’s what you get for falling in love by Harriet_vane (Told in Mikes POV. Will is dating some dude and Mike is realising he doesn’t like that very much. Alternates between the current day in the fic and past evens. Sort of canon compliant. If you like jealous Mike this is definitely a must read) (39,336)
Hi I’m super curious about that book about Japanese symbolism you mentioned in your tags on one of gabedemon’s kuro posts. Could you tell me more about it? Thank you 🥰
Oh sure, I’m happy to! The book describes how natural phenomena are viewed in Japanese culture as a system with certain modes of thinking based on different aspects of nature. It’s also supported by references such as poems and religious texts. There’s some comparisons to science too, the main one I remember being about information flow.
Spend the morning with me! Woke up an hour later than planned but made the best of it edition :)
I got out of bed at 8:05, did my skincare, watered Bingley and set him in the windowsill for some sunlight, admired the dusting of snow we got last night, made the bed, did a few sun salutations in lieu of a proper yoga session because stretching is important but I had zero time, got dressed to work from home, made my current favorite oatmeal (maple pumpkin spice with collagen and generous toppings), and was at work by 9.
