I’ve been stuck on the same chapter of this fic for like 2 months? 3, maybe? Idk. It’s been a while. I keep going back over it and, as much as I want it to feel right, there’s something off. So I brainstormed another idea to move the story along and I think it’s going to work this time <3

I think easter eggs (in media) are so fun, but Taylor Swift might be overdoing it a bit.

There are 12 orange (Karma) doors around the world, and they all have a QR code to a lyric video.

I was hoping that the Chicago one, being above a Yoko Ono quote about peace, would have a deeper meaning XD

9.13: MCR in Tampa
10.2: CR Campaign 4!
11.19: Mighty Nein!
12.12: B-day!

There are a few other birthdays and celebrations in there, but those are the big moments that I'm looking forward to over the next four months.

Live your life in such a way that, upon realizing that you are probably p seriously ill, millions of people are not torn between hoping you die as soon as a body can possibly shuffle off its mortal coil and hoping that you survive long enough to go to prison and die there.

Positive to writing my first draft as a fic: Feedback along the way & motivation not to stop writing
Negative: Getting stuck in an editing loop before posting so that it takes forever for updates (sorry, dear readers)

I hate posting something unpolished, but it’s making this slow.

Never did my teenage self think that the lead up to my first My Chemical Romance show would include making friendship bracelets with my kids (one of them isn’t going, but she had to pitch in to use big sib’s beads for a personal project)

We have 22 made so far!

Hey y’all! I’m broke and trying to raise funds to get my car back from being repo’d (so much fun), so if anyone is interested I have commission slots open (starting at $50) and pins for $15 + shipping:

"What if we taught men to get laid leftistly"

what if men cared about the loss of our bodily autonomy, the abuse we face as a result of coerced economic dependence and the actual pandemic of femicidal violence we have to contend with, more than they cared about sexual access to our bodies

There is no male loneliness epidemic, there is a male entitlement epidemic

If your rancid politics means women won’t sleep with you then that’s good, actually

Also: have you considered sleeping with each other?

i thought we established that to be a man, you must:
- be swift a coursing river
- have the force of a great typhoon
- have the strength of a raging fire
- be as mysterious as the dark side of the moon

“It’s just a tool! People used to hate on photoshop too.”

Take away my photoshop, take away my tablets, I can still draw. Take away your plagiarism machine and what are you gonna do? Shout prompts at me?

It’s *technically* tomorrow already, but 80 years ago today my grandpa - who was born on September 11 - was in the Empire State Building when it was hit by an Army plane.

Downsizing some stuff and I just threw out my copy of The Art of Asking because Palmer and Gaiman can fuck all the way off.

I *hate* throwing books away, but as a “self-help” book by a predatory human, I can’t in good conscience pass it along to another reader and repurposing would will feel icky

I wrote a housewarming party scene last night and realized once I'd finished it that I'd exhausted my own social battery by making people who don't exist talk inside my head.

I feel like that sentence might be concerning to my therapist.

I just overheard someone at Panera calling the college that I used to work for "adequate," and now I'm ready to throw hands.
Degrees from community colleges are totally valid and some of the classes I took there were more valuable than ones I took in grad school.

Finally decided to take care of myself and I have a psych appointment tomorrow, dentist on Monday, first appointment with my new primary care doc on Tuesday, and therapy on Friday.
I'm finally taking advantage of my stupidly expensive health insurance and it feels good.

Friendly librarian throwing out a personal #mutualaid request. My phone is off and I've got until the end of the week to pay power or that'll go, too.

When your playlist keeps pumping out the bops you have to sing along and dissociate in the parking lot a little longer. #imnotokay #welcometonewyork #shakeitoff
