" Is it alright to cling to you? To invent meaning where it is absent? I fear my words won’t grow up with me, still scuffing their knees on cement. I can welcome a lie when it's blinding, But I can’t write like a poet while blinking. I can’t draw like an artist without hiding. I can’t live right now without thinking. "

-words, by me.

Maybe this is a severe mental illness idk but ik other people do this so I wanna know. Do you ever imagine a character is with you while doing the thing your doing ( I.e sans undertale is with you while you dye your hair )

And if so. Do you imagine yourself as yourself… or another character ( ie uhhh u are sonic da hedgehog )

If you can please boost cus I’m really curious. Me and my friend feel like this is a common thing but it’s not talked about cus like…. It’s kinda weird ig.

never lay down in bed right after eating. don't think about staying on your phone for nearly two hours in that position. don't sleep either. acid reflux is real and i hate that guy

Here we go again. My Skitty Cat is real sick, and there's nothing to do but wait until he's ready to go.

This is an understatement, but, this was the worst experience of my life when I did it with Denver, and now I have to do it all over again.

period drama face vs. iphone face is an interesting discourse bc it does have material history backing it up - dentistry, medical science in general, diet, sun exposure, etc are all conditions that contribute to what we understand as a "contemporary" face (or body). but I think there's also some element of looking for difference. we don't want to see someone in a period drama that we'd just see on the street or on instagram, bc it breaks the immersion. costumes etc can help with that but having a bit of a peculiar face puts you ahead of the pack. imo this speaks to the idea that in order to really buy historical fiction/period dramas/etc we need to see it as wholly seperate from the present and the self. also why people get so antsy about period dramas set in time periods they were alive for and remember. it's difficult to think of history as something we lived through, rather than something that finished before we were born. even this itself is a very modern attitude brought about by the 90s end of history debate. ah well, gandalf quote, etc

Unwisely sticking my head over the parapet to claim that adult Harry is a Waitrose shopper. His mother (Morrisons) is slightly aghast in the afterlife.

i back this, since we know from canon that harry is a luxury bitch - and popping into waitrose for a few ottolenghi sauces is basically the equivalent to wanting to buy a solid gold cauldron.

Found more old photos of farmstand vending machine produce! These were called 水前寺菜 suizenji-na, or Gynura bicolor, which sounds a little vaginal. I like it.

Obviously it was the purple that attracted me, but unfortunately that disappears once it's cooked. I just treated it like spinach and sauteed it up with olive oil and garlic, but if I see it again, I'll do like they apparently do in Okinawa and add it to miso soup or blanch it lightly and dress it with ponzu. Yum.

I have covid :(

2024 year of charlie gets a fucking break (hopefully. maybe. tbd.)

Alright so for now I’ve got the elves lore in my new notebook, tho I’m not sure if it will be used or not, but it’s still important so that I could understand how their culture works or something

Also still no sure what to do with the language barrier, I’ll just continue going forward till it becomes an issue and try to solve it then.

By the way just finished listening to 36 questions musical/podcast and wow I’m not sure what to say but I needed to say something

+ can someone please tell me how can I fix the resolution for the art?? Why is it so pixelly

I wish more people could wrap their heads around “labor rights and a strong social safety net are important not just to the very poor, both on principle and because weakening those things means that more people end up in poverty” and “people at different socioeconomic levels have different experiences even if you disregard the very rich, and people can be viciously classist even if they don’t have all that much money themselves.” Also, if there could be a moratorium on “if you were really poor, you wouldn’t have/do [thing that varies a lot in expense depending on a million different factors].”

NUMBER ONE ON TRENDING WE ARE SO BACK, BABY‼️‼️

Just realized that maybe all my beautiful mutuals dont know that I live in the same city as my boyfriend now so I need you all to know that I LIVE IN THE SAME CITY AS MY BOYFRIEND NOW
