Happy 20th anniversary to Winx Club, my favourite show of all time, my obsession and my favourite thing in the whole world. Winx has been a huge part of my life and has gotten me through some of my darkest moments. Here's to many more years of friendship, love and magic! <3

Short episode jam-packed with a lot of great moments

putting my prediction on record now that the coming decade is going to see the rise of viral-marketed fancy at-home water filtration systems, driving and driven by a drastic reduction in the quality of U.S. tap water (given that we are in a 'replacement era' where our current infrastructure is reaching the end of its lifespan--but isn't being replaced). also guessing that by the 2030s access to drinkable tap water will be a mainstream class issue, with low-income & unstably housed people increasingly forced to rely on expensive bottled water when they can't afford the up-front cost of at-home filtration--and with this being portrayed in media as a "moral failing" and short-sighted "choice," rather than a basic failure of our political & economic systems. really hope i'm just being alarmist, but plenty of this already happens in other countries, and the U.S. is in a state of decline, so. here's praying this post ages into irrelevance. timestamped April 2023

A number of years ago, I was sitting at the kitchen table with my parents. (I think it was lunch? lunch-ish? but I can't really remember.) Anyway, my father kept insisting that if you have hobbies, you should hustle and turn it into a blog, a podcast---something that would use that expertise, and share it with others. But my mother pushed back; she insisted that doing something is an end in itself. You can just read a book. You can think about what you read, turning it over in your head. Maybe talk about it with your local book club! But you don't need to start a LIT CHICKS podcast and read books every month and offer Blue Apron discount codes during commercial breaks, etc. etc.

You can just read the book.

I find myself thinking about that exchange a lot. I can just take a butterfly pinning class, or a foraging class, or a historical walking tour, and that's enough. The world is for doing things in, learning and meeting and seeing---you do not have to turn that into shareable content or a life's passion to give it worth.

Cannot begin to describe how excited I was in this episode. So much lore. So many reveals. Gorgeous Ankarna-Cassandra art. Fig was right all along. Murph's overwhelming surplus of Nat 20s. incredible

Like, I know I am preaching to the choir here, but you have to go out of your way to find and read clearly tagged fic that you know you won't like. It's very avoidable. But when you leave a comment, that gets sent to the author directly whether they asked for it or not.

I don't have emails about comments toggled on in my preferences, and I could opt out of having notifications of new comments sent to my inbox at all, but I don't think it's unreasonable for me to want to be able to keep getting notifications with the assumption that people who make the effort to comment on my work will want to say nice things to me! Why should I have to go out of my way to avoid people being unpleasant directly to my face when they could so much more easily avoid being rude in the first place?
