it's actually just hit me that there's like... not really romance plots in dungeon meshi. they don't pair the cast off arbitrarily at the end. basically any character could be read as aroace/aspec really easily. that's honestly super cool!! it's refreshing to have a mainstream piece of media with the kind of approach to character relationships that emphasizes how important everyone's connections to each other are without making them explicitly romantic.

to whom it may concern,

if you're someone who used to read a lot as a child and now you're an adult who hasn't read a book in five years and you miss that part of yourself, i'm here to reassure you that that part of yourself isn't gone for good. It's a habit you can nurture. All it needs is a little bit of practice, and a little bit of pushing through to the part where you start enjoying yourself again

Sincerely,

An adult who's learning to love reading again

I hope y'all know I'm not about to not shut up about this man for the next few days

idk why fire emblem fans get a bad rep tbh. it's one of the more fun fandoms i've been in like we have emblemcon, art exchanges, so many zines and fan merch! and fan merch of Random Guy #2 that has 7 really dedicated fans!

I am confusion.

Yall really underestimate how much I'll love you forever even if we stop talking. I still think about my friends from ELEMENTARY SCHOOL and hope they're doing well. Everyone who has ever been nice to me, please know that you are a permanent fixture in the scrapbook in my head and I will turn to your pages and go "aw that was fun" and maybe even add a new sticker to the page because it reminds me of you. MWAH.

when in fics they say two characters gave each other a look this is always what i envision in my head

in every workplace there should be a secret button you can press and if everyone presses it the workweek immediately ends and you can go outside and play instead of sending email

earlier today i told an acquaintance in passing that i'll often be in the middle of a novel and think "man i wish this shit were more ambiguous" and had to reiterate twice that i wasn't being sarcastic before they believed me, so this post is to say: i love when writers don't bother to explain everything, i love when stories end uncertain and unsettling, i love being required to think as a reader, i love when stuff makes no damn sense, no i'm not kidding

2 and half months ago i got back into cross stitching. Today i finished the project I started back then! And then turned it into a pillow :3
