The song: a good vibey comedy about two people dating and the reckless things they get up to because they're young.

The story idea I came up with: a devastating story exploring starting over, and how one deals with knowing one'll die soon..

I'll jot some notes down just in case, but yikes 😬😅

I always put pressure on myself to make use of my time off from work, but honestly? Just rest away from it is what I need right now.

There's plenty I could be doing, but right now, I haven't the energy to do them 🖤

Hey my wonderful #DavidsMonthOfMusic peeps. I hope the music helped you through that really long January!

I've been meaning to tweak some of these for a while so this is the new and hopefully improved Feb challenges

As always, have fun. Be good to each other. Thank you all!

bravery relapses
internally i stutter
not knowing the words
to say how i truly feel

so i hope each penned ditto
suffices

Concerning the epstein excerpts..I'm just beyond words. I'm horrified, I'm angry, I'm actually sick at the thought of such men in positions of power.

To any fellow SA survivors, please give yourself grace. Yes, it's important to share, to speak out, but not at the expense of a relapse 🖤

returning to the dreamscape
my own sculpted paradise
to evade the world
and #soothe the wars
inside my head

and perhaps if i may
you'll have a space there too

Well I was having a lovely evening but now I've popped online and saw Catherine O'Hara died 😭

She was amazing in all her roles but Sally will always be my favourite 🖤

my mind is my own
the only truly private thing
in this age of performance

if only you knew
the stories i weave
the reveries i dream

but one is allowed a few secrets

I've been watching a few videos about commonplace books, I've been fascinated by them since I first read A Series of Unfortunate Events and have been saying for years that I should start one.

the drums of desire
beating in your ribcage

Happy Friday 🖤

I woke up to a dm from faraway bestie saying nothing but "do you think the soul is real?"

My dude, it's too early for existentialism 😂

Have a lovely day 😘

If you're hyped for the forthcoming Francesca storyline in #bridgerton and need more sapphic historical stories to tide you over until then, may I recommend my books in the meantime—the sweet & romantic THE UNLIKELY PURSUIT OF MARY BENNET and the funny & sexy THE MISEDUCATION OF CAROLINE BINGLEY!

Alrighty, all edits done and things are finally looking how I want 🖤

First cosplay of the year! I'll post tomorrow 🥰

Clearly the resolution on my laptop is very different to that on my phone. I spent all that time yesterday altering my hair colour on gimp and then sent it over to my phone and LO AND BEHOLD, the colour looks barely different!! 😩

Well, guess I'm doing it all over again.
