confession: two weeks ago my friends got sick of me slowly cooking to death in my self-pitying emotional soup of heartbreak, took me out for drinks, and installed a dating app on my phone. we are all in the same degree at uni (i'm 25 + i promise this is relevant), in a faculty that is extremely quaint and mostly comprised of academics married to people with normal jobs. two years ago a teacher-couple joined our program's faculty, a fact that caused a minor riot within the teaching staff, who thought it was unfair to give two of four tenured jobs to a couple... unfortunately for them both of these profs are extremely beloved among the students and very good teachers at that. even if you've never taken classes from either of them, you know about this couple and probably whatever rumors are going around about them too. i've taken classes w/ both.

anyway. back to me on the dating app in the bar with my friends, pretty drunk, swiping though my bumble suggestions. for extra fun, we have set the minimum age to 30 and the gender to include "both" even though i am a lesbian. the whole table is viciously tearing down dating profiles, investigating their pictures, etc. i go to the bar to get another round for the group, am about to pay for our drinks when i hear a virtual SHRIEK from our corner. i get back, dish our drinks out. my phone is in the middle of the table, untouched by anyone like it's a cursed object. i look at the screen. it's them, our teacher couple. they have a shared dating profile, stating that they are "looking for someone to explore her bisexuality with". lesbian readers will know that this is not exactly an uncommon profile type to find, but still, seeing it from people who have taught basically everything you know about 19th century literature is... quite something. so naturally i decide to swipe right before anyone can stop me.

maia, i am so proud to report: i fucked that man's wife, she was absolutely lovely, and we will see each other again, and i am currently taking another class from her husband where the vibe is more than chill. my friends have been sworn to secrecy, but i know it's only a matter of time before someone slips up and the rumor mill starts churning... but who cares? i haven't thought about my ex since!

OH MY GOD HOLY SHIT

I love the shift in doctor who from “the tardis is a woman in the way a boat is a woman” to “the tardis is a woman in that it sorta has a personality” to “the tardis is a woman in that it’s a living sentient being with a literal soul and she actually controls herself because she likes taking the doctor on adventures and she loves the doctor so so much and they’re each others family and he takes care of her and sweet talks her and gives her little kisses and they’re marriedddd” That’s how every guy with a boat feels anyway

I'm trying to get back into the groove of things. I am currently diving headfirst into one of my oldest hyper fixations. I finished this a few days ago after taking too long to work on it, but well....

You know your nontumblr partner imbibes a lot of tumblr when they see this in astrobot and say “i bet @bovineblogger doesn’t know about this!”

i think season 3 of iwtv should open with lestat's after-party where he and Daniel are tripping balls. lestat brings people for them to fuck/drink from, among them a guy who kinda looks like Armand. lestat tells him "I brought this one specifically pour toi. he resembles your gremlin" and Daniel is like "shut the fuck up" but the next shot is of him snorting coke off of the guy's pecs
