I love your work, you are so talented and I can't wait to get some more prints when your shop is open again!! <3 (also is there any place i can leave a product review since your website won't be open for a while?)

Sure I’m glad (mostly) that YA is the booming juggernaut it is today because it’s cool that 14 year olds can have stories for them. Sure. More books is always better. That’s fun— thoughts on book influencer culture and grown-ups and literature as soulless and ever-churning product aside. It’s cool to walk into any tiny neighborhood library branch and see a dedicated space for teenagers. When I was a young teenager there were a couple of small shelves in between adult audiobooks and the biographical section where you walked in and your choices were either Twilight, Eragon, or some candy-pink Sex And The City-lite dishy little book like the one that has got some reason come rushing unbidden to the forefront of my memory this morning called “Vegan Virgin Valentine” which I never wound up reading but was always compelled by through a mixture of intrigue and condescension. The YA landscape pre-Hunger Games mania was like…here’s a super scandalous book about anorexia or teen pregnancy written in verse. Or a pandering Book For Boys about combat or fart humor. Or a twilight knock-off about a girl who has sex with a ghost. So while any glimpse of the bloated realm of teen publishing makes me feel exhausted on account of the feverish adult fans who populate it it’s probably full of important stories for teenagers. But like truly Kids These Days have no idea what it’s like to have your only option be called “The Earth, My Butt, And Other Big Round Things” (real) or “Everlost: Soulfyre Book 3” (fabricated poorly for effect)

Fee to apply to school BS.
I don't get universities/colleges that charge an outrageous fee to apply... especially when they're just regular ol' schools, nothing especially prestigious. Like, you do realize that I'm gonna apply to the places where it's free first, right??? I mean, I'd understand maybe a $10 processing fee or something, but come on...

i went into a chase bank today to see if i could close my account because i am tired of getting charged $12/month for being broke and unemployed and while the banker was trying to convince me not to do this she was like "i just love us so i don't like seeing people leave us" and like first of all maybe try cutting out the bullshit fees then and also refunding me but second whoooooo shills for jp morgan chase like that. "i just love us" ??????????? girl i know they are not paying you enough to act like that. she also tried to get me to get a credit card but i declined. and then immediately walked across the street to a local bank to ask them about getting a credit card.

This is the stupidest decision from Netflix ever. So, not only are you punishing your already-member customers, but you're making people pay an additional $8.00 a MONTH for EACH additional user on the account while we're in an over-inflated economy and people can barely afford to make ends meet, let alone pay for "fluff stuff" like a streaming service??
Give me a freakin' break. 😤😡
Not only that, but they have the NERVE to raise prices on members AGAIN. 🙄

okay even if they hadn't died but just imagine how many 19-year olds could have afforded a university education with the money spent to board a vessel that may as well could have been made out of cardboard

I am once again begging online shop payment processing companies to allow me to enter a separate name for shipping and separate name for billing!!
It's the same address, I'm just trans and have not legally changed my personal name, but I still prefer to receive mail as my preferred name! Like it's literally my professional name, I do business as my preferred name.
Annoying as fuck, and I don't want to chance my bank rejecting the payment (though I'm sure someone at my bank has put a note to allow it on my account by now, since I've contacted them a couple times before when I realized too late that the billing section didn't let me input another "address/name" section, and they said the payment was fine in those cases.)
Anyway, legal name changes should be free and non-advertised for everyone. Tbh, you should get a free name change every time you file your taxes on time as an incentive for good citizen behaviour. Once I am elected pres-

getting a Sakura plush from one of my favorite Faithful Mochi Shiba sets ever (little ones with cute paw charms; i put a picture of the full line from the official website under the cut) ! everyone i've bought a plush from on mercari has been so nice
(i THINK this is all the characters they made plushes of in this particular style? i'm going to start learning Japanese soon for unrelated reasons, and that should make research for collecting toys from brands in Japan much easier. Note the pig. I think it's so cute and funny that not all of the chuken mochishiba characters are even shiba inu dogs. theres a pig and a corgi also. and a sparrow, and a yellow bird that's rarely seen)
