Dinner with a friend tonight who I haven't seen in years.
Her: "tell me everything about the last two years!"
Me: "I got really into BTS!!!"
Her: "wait, I thought you already did that... What are the other letters though? B...s... D...?"
Me: "you are thinking of bdsm."

"unbidden, [MC] beckoned him closer."
NO.
NO.
I am begging writers to learn what the word "unbidden" means. Please.

It doesn't matter what the context is. If someone says, "next time we meet," for any reason! My brain fills in...
Something you love dies bloody.
(I cannot believe there's not a gif of this widely available, but I guess it WAS 20+ yrs ago in an unpopular season. But damn.)

All this ai shit and I still can't look at a train line and see what stores are along the line so I can plan my route accordingly. I don't want to ask a chat bot that's destroying the economy and environment, I want a map.

I've been watching this group of charming guys in their early twenties "react" to BTS and get further and further into Army territory with every video, and it makes me excited all over again about all my favorite songs and even some I didn't really care about before.

Chapter 4 of Those Falling Petals in My Hands by @thehoyden.bsky.social - I don't have favorites but if I did this would be my favorite chapter. Don't tell the other chapters.

I actually am extremely sentimental but 20 actual years ago someone asked to read my writing and then couldn't think of anything to say about it other than, "it's so... unsentimental..."
And that has stuck with me (sometimes honestly, sometimes bitterly) ever since.

Every time I hear "Passionfruit" by Jeff Satur, which is like twice an hour or so, I think about a fic that is, like, Jiang Yanli/Nie Mingjue fucking during the Sunshot Campaign while working on "logistics" together.

Unexpectedly off work this morning to take my mom to the eye doctor, and that means sitting in the car with an Americano and fanfic and the commercial-free hours on lite fm, which is like almost a perfect moment in time.

In between the stuff I've been doing today, I'm rereading As Is the Sea Marvelous by blackkat. No matter how many times I read it, it's so good.

I put on MAGICMAN 2 as loud as my computer speakers will go and my baby sibling's cat immediately jumped up and laid down on the keyboard and started purring.

Twice now when struggling with finding a word (thanks, brain fog), I have said "raw pickles" to refer to cucumbers.
If it wasn't so frustrating to not be able to remember words, I would think that's an excellent phrase.

Day off work, so I got to use my energy to cook a nice lunch (with a lot of chopping, which is my favorite), and while I did I listened to exmanhater read "walk my days on a wire" by cicer. 1000/10 so good

Ahhh it turns out I want this on my timeline.
If I say, don't do this to/with my work bc it's so precious to me, bc I can't bear if people touch it, bc I need to control it, and you HAVE to respect that etc etc.. Where is the line then btwn me & Anne Rice except $ and possible standing to sue you?

I allow every single transformative work because it's not my place to allow or deny. Transformative work is transformative work, and if we're going to do whatever we want to other people's canon it's the height of hypocrisy (and nonsense) to insist our creative work is somehow excluded.

I promised myself I wouldn't record anymore podfic until I edit at least half of the 100+ hrs I have already recorded in the last six months.
That's why this weekend I recorded a whole 3-1/2 hr fic.
