My Grammarly subscription finally ran out in December, and I'm not renewing it (see my various past rants about their introduction of AI), but I just got my final "insights" email, which tallies up how many words you've written for the past week but also since you started using it.
I almost want to frame it as a fuck you to my "I'm not doing enough" brain worms because, since September of 2019, when I reinstalled Grammarly for a pro-editing job (required by the company, as many of them now do 🙄), I've written over twelve million words.
I primarily used Grammarly for my emails.
That's 12,834,172 words of telling people they're gonna be okay. Sharing resources, doctor information, and just general words of comfort. That MCAS isn't a death sentence. That MCAS from long-covid isn't the end of their life; it's just going to be different from now on.
And here I was, feeling guilty about setting up auto-responders with links to resources because I got too burned out to do it one-to-one anymore...
...Yeah. No. I did enough.
I did enough.

So I read Trimax...and rewatched Stampede after...
I cried so hard and for so long and so frequently that the next day my eyes and head still hurt. I think about it and just want to curl up and cry over it again. Tis peak 10/10, I am resisting the urge to read it all again. I will rewatch Tristamp and 98 another 10 more times.

Dan Heng Δ Witch Hat Atelier AU (part 2) ⋆。˚ ⋆
Fleshed out my ideas for this AU a bit more. It's surprising how much of Dan Heng's lore could fit into the Witch Hat universe.
In this AU, Dan Heng is exiled for being an inadequate successor to Dan Feng by those who tatooed the forbidden spell onto his back. Dan Heng only inherited Dan Feng's appearance but not his mastery over magic.
While in exile, Dan Feng's foes in life would hunt down Dan Heng. He never stayed in one location for too long and defended himself with "Cloud Piercer".
Then, he met Himeko, a contraption repair specialist, in a town he drifted into. She introduces Dan Heng to the Astral Express, an atelier on rails she runs alongside Welt and Pom-Pom. Thus, Dan Heng became the Astral Express' first apprentice.
Some context for those who don't read Witch Hat Atelier -
In this world spells are cast by drawing seals on surfaces using special ink, rather than incantation or an individual's inherent magic. The spell takes effect when the outer circle of the seal is closed.
Because of its ease of casting, magic is a closely guarded secret and mostly only taught to those born into witch society.
Any spells that drastically affects the mind, body or environment is forbidden and punishable by memory erasure and exile. Healing magic is considered a huge taboo and is big source of conflict in the story.
Before becoming a full fledged witch, you have to apprentice under a more senior witch.

dusts off ask box
it was just genshin chars in wonderland roles, there isn't really any lore to it outside of the disney movie that i was following
i don't really follow kpop groups but i do like Twice and BTS songs
i can't believe we're getting three generations of women into genshin impact
it's pretty cool that you can share your interests with your family honestly
thanks i really don't draw them as much as i'd like to
i was more worried about my proportions back then but i'm glad to hear that my old art is still holding up
thank you, i've really been beating myself up lately

never grow up
by lesbiseresin
Bradley’s first instinct has always been to keep things to himself. It’s why he’s trying so hard to hide it— but Carole knows.
She’s his mother. Of course she knows.
(alternatively: a look into how much carole loves her son)

that feeling of forever being trapped as a failure no matter how hard you try, can’t even see the point anymore
