Had a little moment with myself this evening reminding myself that I'm home. Every time I hug myself, I am holding my world. My safe space. My sacredness. And she deserves all the love poured back into her. Home. Sacredness. Inner peace. Love you baby girl. 🌻

my top bit of advice going into the new year: compliment people. especially strangers. literally everyone you interact with if you can. when you buy coffee in the morning compliment the barista's tattoos. when you're chatting with a coworker tell them that by the way you like their outfit. always find something they've chosen to do on purpose. nail polish, jewellery, tattoos, hair colour/style, statement accessory, outfit, etc are all good bets. things people hope will be noticed. things that aren't too personal so it doesn't make them uncomfortable (eg probably not their physical features). i've gotten into the habit of scanning everyone i talk to for something about them that i think is cool so i can tell them. it's a great habit because it makes me notice people and realise just how many neat little details there are in people's presentation of themselves that might pass me by if i wasn't paying attention. and it brings out so much joy. you'd be surprised how much it disarms people to receive an unexpected compliment from someone they don't know. it is the most sincere smile you will see all day long. it feels nice to make people happy but it also means you win the social interaction. establish dominance by complimenting a stranger's earrings and disappearing into the fog

what they didn’t tell you as a child is that you will spend your whole life trying to replicate the same unconditional happiness you so effortlessly experienced back then and that it will never quite feel the same no matter how hard you try

Những ngày cuối với The Ann Hanoi

09/3 một bác gái làm massage chân 40m tip cho cả mình và chị Phương 200k mỗi người nè hehe. Mình làm lễ tân nên hiếm khi được tip lắm, mình nhớ có một bác trai người miền Nam ra chăm bố bị bệnh cũng vào làm massage tip cho mình 100k nè, cô Bích Phượng cho mình 50k nè, một cô Việt kiều đi cùng đoàn với cô Phượng cho mình 100k nè, một sư thầy người Thái tip mình 100k nè, một bác gái đến làm massage dùng voucher của khách sạn cho mình 20k nè hehe ... còn nhiều con người mình có cơ hội và có may mắn được gặp gỡ từ khi làm việc ở The Ann. Họ đều khiến mình cảm thấy ấm áp, hạnh phúc và yêu đời thêm hhee. Con cảm ơn mọi người ạ! Họ đều đáng tuổi bà, tuổi ông của mình, cảm giác như mình như cháu gái của họ vậy hehe. Con cảm ơn mọi người rất nhiều ạ! Con chúc mọi người luôn mạnh khỏe, đi du lịch khám phá nhiều hơn và sống thật hạnh phúc trong suốt quãng đời còn lại. Con hy vọng chúng ta sẽ được gặp lại nhau ở một thời điểm nào đó trong tương lai ạ.

a day late to my 6 years on t anniversary ✨🏳️‍⚧️ a short comic about looking back

Are you frustrated you can't leave second kudos on AO3? or third kudos? or whatever-who's-counting kudos?

Well, have I got the html for you!

Plop any of these in a comment (by copy&pasting the code) to make an author's day and show your appreciation!

Second kudos: <img src="https://i.ibb.co/tHMjbb6/second-kudos.png" alt="second kudos">

Third kudos: <img src="https://i.ibb.co/52bggQH/third-kudos.png" alt="third kudos">

nth kudos: <img src="https://i.ibb.co/6y7qGtC/nth-kudos.png" alt="nth kudos">

yet another kudos: <img src="https://i.ibb.co/wKtcj0s/yet-another-kudos.png" alt="yet another kudos">

It will look something like this (and will be transparent with white outline on dark backgrounds):

Feel free to spread and use these as much as you like! (and if you have ideas for other variations, let me know ✌️)

I want Toby Fox three years after the last chapter to make a game where it's just the Fun Gang going on a road trip to the east coast to go fishing. They raid a gas station on the way to grabs snacks for the road (and the lobsters they catch). Happy April Fool's.

[papamin au 🐅 ] birthday surprise 🎂

Storytime: My brother Dave used to manage a Little Ceasars, and he hated it. So when my mom asked him what he wanted on his birthday cake, he jokingly said the Little Ceasars guy being stabbed with his own spear. My mom, who doesn't always get sarcasm, didn't even question it. She lovingly made him exactly what he asked for. It's my favorite cake ever.

Happy Ides of March to Ceasar getting stabbed!

i'm picking him up like he's loot dropped on the dungeon floor for being too annoying and putting him in my pocket

All the best boy hugs for Karlach
