The thing that pisses me off is that Darktown's Deal is the only pre-Hard In Hightown novel that you're able able to read any amount of, and it's actually really good.

do you ever end up accidentally getting super attached to a trope so specific and rare you don't even know how to look for it? 'space aliens failing to understand that a human showing teeth usually isn't a threat display' isn't even an ao3 tag. finding that shit in published fiction or tv shows is next to impossible

It's the most wonderful time of the year by which i mean its my favorite season by WHICH i mean the My Favorite Books Of The Year youtube videos are imminent. I watch so many of those fucking things i eat them UPPPP but not without prejudice. I love a My 10 Favorite Reads or a Top 20 Books Of The Year, these are beautiful these are perfect to me. a top 5 is good too. Where I draw the line is if i see in the title, and these people always put the number in the fucking title they just cannot help themselves, that theyve read 90 books this year or 120 books or some higher even stupider number. I simply do not care what these people have to say about the books they read. I don't believe they spent enough time and energy on any one of those books to have anything meaningful to say!! 200 books in a year? that's not even reading to me anymore. I don't think.. i'm a slow reader, i'm well aware, i think read hard before picking up a new book because I know it's an investment of my time and my energy and my brain power and thoughts and feelings, i dont read that many books so i want to really CARE about the books I read. but I dont THINK this comes from a place of bitterness or jealousy. I just do not believe that someone who read 120 books in a year CARES enough about any one book that they could say anything truly meaningful about it. do you think someone who read 100 books really thought about those books?? like I have a hard time believing they were affected by those books. Don't you want to be affected?? don't you want to care?? Why don't you want to CARE???? anyway where was i. FAVORITES. I'm so excited I love hearing about people's favorite reads i'm gonna watch 100 of these its the most wonderful time of the yearrrrrr

Sometimes I hate pirating!! Sometimes I'm like damn!! I wish this movie I really want to see wasn't streaming only because there's no way in hell I'm buying Disney+ and 5 other services for one singular movie!! Sometimes good movies I want to give money to aren't accessible to me because they tried to capitalize so hard on it they're now failing at capitalism!! I want to watch movies that are on Netflix but I don't want to pay for fucking Netflix! And now Disney has stopped producing DVDs!! If all of you fucks do that too the only way I can watch your fucking shows is pirating!! God damn it!!

Hm. Ari Finch ballad brothers was NOT supposed to have this much in common with me gamers what the fuck

Sometimes I think of Amy Pond, who grew up being called mad by those who wielded the word as a tool of exclusion and shame —

Amy Pond, who though forced into the hands of four psychiatrists, still clung to that which they called madness until those systems which elevate psychosocial conformity above humanity stripped it from her —

Amy Pond, whose imaginary friend reappeared for a single hour after twelve years and reignited that faith before disappearing for two more years —

Amy Pond, who spent those those two years under the same implicit threat ingrained in her through psychiatric violence, and thus began to believe the man who stopped the invasion was “just a madman with a box,” only for him to agree, and to also call her “mad, impossible Amy Pond,” reframing madness as non-negative for the first time in her life —

Amy Pond, who ignored the disembodied voice of her imaginary friend even as she ran away with him for real, who still lived each day with the traumatic internalization of deviancy dictated upon her by the psychiatric-industrial complex that shaped her from childhood —

Amy Pond, who wouldn't acknowledge the Doctor's voice, such that it took an Angel in her eye that was literally killing her to ensure she couldn't reality check herself —

Amy Pond, who stood before a room which muttered about “the psychiatrists we brought her to,” and though afraid, escaped their rigid parameters of acceptable existence.

guys. guys !!!!

This Saturday’s rabbit hole has been checking out the American Girl catalogue for the first time in years and being enamored with all the beautiful outfits and play sets. Unfortunately, I am not immune to Shiny Red Christmas things, which is 90% the appeal for me for looking at AG stuff. The other 10% is nostalgia from the early 2000s of looking at the shiny red Christmas AG stuff. XD

Anyways look at this beautiful doll.

She’s $300. That’s absurd. She’s so beautiful. I don’t want her. I want that outfit for myself. 😂

i think i'll be stitching my jumper together tomorrow!!

Now that there is no question about it - the homemade version of the story is way more interesting and fun than what we got in "canon" - I kind of want to get myself a few of these and put this alternate reality on display.

While I'm at it, you can also get these (and some other SW Rebels / Thrawn goodies) from my Redbubble store: https://www.redbubble.com/people/jemichi/shop

I keep thinking I still have 60 followers but it's been subtly increasing this past month so everytime I check its like a jumpscare

unfathomable emotions after showering
