Plans got canceled, time to go home and don my Nightcrawler cosplay and sit and write Nightcrawler fanfic
Y’know normal Friday night behavior ✨

so a Yellowjackets AU where mari says something to get herself kicked out of the cabin, and she dies of exposure and gets eaten at the bachanalian banquet instead of Jackie, who LIVES, who's there at Shauna's side when she goes into labor, stroking her hair and letting Shauna squeeze her hand hard enough to sprain her fingers, who keeps Shauna calm enough she has a (comparatively!!!!!!) easier delivery, who is the reason the(ir) baby lives.
who finally, after months of feeling adrift and useless because she’s not a hunter or a butcher or a prophet or a captain (anymore) finds her purpose in the wilderness. who painstaking sews patchwork baby onesies and cloth diapers from the girls' spare clothes (Offerings, not donations). who makes a baby sling from animal pelts and backpack straps. who makes a rattle from sticks and pinecones and some light blue pebbles Jackie found by the lake one day and saved. who makes sure the cabin stays warm and clean for Luke Dylan (from 90210--they couldn't decide whether to go with the actor or the character).
who builds them another shelter from blankets and animal hides after the cabin burns down. who keeps shauna and their baby warm through that first terrible winter and the one that followed.
and one day in 1998, Canadian forest rangers happen upon that American high school soccer team that went missing 2 years back. they find a group of starving teens and a baby, a little over a year old, two of the girls wrapped around him--and each other
and when the rescue team tries to separate them the one with tangled, golden brown hair bears her teeth and Growls

Fuck me. Fuck my life. Fuck in general.
My mom has covid. I just spent four hours in a car with her yesterday, although both of us were wearing masks. She'd already tested negative once and thought it was the flu, but as soon as we got home, her second test was positive.
I'm scared because this is her second time having covid, and she already has more chronic illnesses than I can even keep track of. She really doesn't need to add long covid to that list - and neither do I.
Also, she went to my grandpa's funeral this morning. Wearing a mask, but still. There were a lot of very old and vulnerable people there.
I'm fucking coughing again. I had a cough on Wednesday, tested negative but isolated anyway, then it went away and I teated negative again on Friday, so I though I was fine. The cough literally just returned. Does the placebo effect apply to coughing?

not to be like “i miss college” even though i do but mostly i think i miss being smart. before depression and life events had chewed up and partially swallowed my brain. just getting to problem solve and think, being Very Into something as the norm. i know being an english major is basically the easiest thing you can be at the undergrad level but i do feel like that was the one and only time in my life where my natural state was actually a pro instead of a con. i graduated with the highest honors and absolutely no one cared but i cared
