10 things for 10 people you’d like to know better!

passively tagged by @fifteensjukebox! <3

Last song: This Too Shall Pass by OK Go

Last book: the last one I was reading? Or the last one I finished? The last one I was reading is Lords and Ladies by Terry Pratchett. The last one I finished was...oh, We All Want Impossible Things by Catherine Newman, which was fantastic, 10/10, I laughed and cried and laughed and cried, do recommend!

Last movie: We just saw the Pride & Prejudice 20th-anniversary theatrical re-release yesterday! We dragged our 14-year-old with us and she enjoyed it.

Last TV show: We just started a rewatch of The Expanse today, and I am in fact watching an episode right now. Also watching Dimension 20: Titan Takedown, which is SO FUN; the current season of Leverage Redemption; and rewatching D20: Fantasy High Sophomore Year with my kids (the younger of whom is watching for the first time).

Favorite color: sunflower yellow, turquoise, dark teal--and yeah, Sierra, pthalo green is a great choice!

Sweet, savory or spicy: it really depends on the day, but I love all three! I probably like savory and spicy stuff more than I used to.

Relationship status: happily married

Last thing Googled: Ilona Maher, because I showed my kids the gifset of her doing "Under Pressure" on Dancing with the Stars, and wanted to make sure I was right about her being a rugby player.

Current obsession: still Nancy Drew, though I have less of an outlet these days. The fandom has gotten pretty quiet. I enjoyed both The Pitt and The Residence a lot, but they're not taking up real estate in my brain. It's possible I'll get a little obsessed with the Murderbot TV show when it starts in May.

Looking forward to: our homeschool year has five weeks left, and I'm looking forward to summer break. Also, we're moving this summer and even though stuff is all up in the air--when exactly are we moving??? where exactly are we moving to??--I'm looking forward to it.

low-key no-pressure tagging: @skywalkerangst, @whythursdaynext, @calligrafiti, @vimesbootstheory, @blatterpussbunnyfromhell, @unreadwords, @bisexualbillpaxton, @heterocosmica, @duskylight, @wordybee, and anyone else who'd like to do this!

People Id like to get to know better

Tagged by @bluroux

Last song- Danger! High Voltage, Electric Six

I have been finding myself in a "music that would upset the wrong people" music phase lately. In that spirit, I share the video, a truly iconic piece of weirdness for the sake of it.

Last movie- Clue, for monthly sib movie night

Last tv show- if streamers count, Love is Blind (cousin and I are morbidly curious since this season auditions were in our metro area. living down to all the worst expectations so far!)

Last thing I googled - Amish mental health. The orange moron devil works hard, your friendly clinical research professional debunking works harder!

Looking forward to - dinner at the fancy arepa place for my aunt's birthday next month

Current obsession - Dungeon Crawler Carl. Now that I'm not running a crawl themed mental health challenge, back to knitting my Princess Donut hat. (unrelated, I also have a This is (Not) Fine embroidery project for a friend I really need to put more time in on this week).

Tagging....hmmm: @deathdovesong, @king-ofconfusion @internalrenovations @toooldfortumbling @hazelrhoeas @calligrafiti @leebrontide @quartzandsundry @the12thnightproject plus anyone else who wants to play (if you're tagged and don't want/have time no pressure, I was trying to think who on my list i've seen do these before)

ten people I'd like to know better

tagged by @plothooksinc!

last song: Still Here from one of the 2024 LoL cinematics. I'm honestly almost upset how many of these go so hard.

fave color: Pretty much any shade of blue

last book: Starter Villain by John Scalzi

last movie: Tangled

last show: Mythbusters lol

sweet/spicy/savory: Not sure if this is meant to be a 'pick one' or a 'what's your opinion on each,' so--

love sweet stuff to the point that I'm really trying to wean myself off stuff like Mountain Dew, SweeTarts, etc.

not to stereotype myself, but I absolutely have a white woman's tolerance for spicy food, lol; I love spices but not spicy, basically

also very good

relationship status: Incredibly single and no complaints about it tbh

last thing i googled: asdfghjkl the author of Starter Villain, because I am comfy in my chair under a blanket and didn't want to get up to go look at the book

current obsession: Rise still has a firm hold on my brain even 2+ years after the movie

looking forward to: Finding out if I'm going to get the promotion/raise I'm under consideration for. And spring! (71 days, babeey)

Tagging @notagiraffe @candy284 @trisockatops @dawntreaderflynne @rhinocio @astronaut-karenwilson @calligrafiti and anyone else who wants to do it!

L’arte impegnata di Wu XiXia, tra tradizione calligrafica e lotta di genere

«Perché non ci sono calligrafe donne?». Questa è la provocatoria domanda posta dall’artista Wu Xixia 吴析夏 (1993), aggiornando e applicando alla cultura e alla società cinese il titolo del saggio di Linda Nochlin del 1971. Nata in Cina e successivamente immigrata a Macao e negli Stati Uniti, dove ha studiato presso l’istituto d’arte dell’Università Massachusetts Dartmouth, Wu Xixia è al centro…

HOLY SHIT I'VE DONE IT! The entirety of Nastya_M_Steel's Void Between Stars (https://archiveofourown.org/works/33438919/chapters/83066389) HANDWRITTEN IN CALLIGRAPHY AND BOUND

This has been a JOURNEY to do (for anyone who is only recently following or hasn't seen, check the #calligrafic project tag if you're curious) and it's FINALLY DONE!

Obviously, go read the fic itself and give the author a kudos if you haven't already

@calligrafiti replied to your post: this week SUCKS and not even for a good reason

That’s a lot. I hope you can get some non-itchy rest soon.

thank you <3

It's just a page so far, but here's my progress!

(This is going to end up being a draft version, as I'll redo it on proper calligraphy paper with the new pen that I got yesterday)

Juniper (not the kid with Carmilla) here, would it be okay if I handwrote and bound a physical copy of The Stars Claim Them? I just think it'd be neat

Hello yes yes that’s be absolutely awesome to know was out there in the world. Like. Wow. That’d be so cool. I would love to see how it turns out, if you decide to do it :)
