Periodic reminder that this is just my AO3-coded space, and there's the option to hear about film, knitting, & my adventures watching Star Trek for the first time over at @wickedjaws.bsky.social.
Listen, I came up in Lotrips & I even wrote RPS as recently as The Untamed, but it's one thing when it's on AO3 & LJ (this is how old I am) & quite another when you are putting it out there where it's causing harm to the people involved.
NEW: “Real life is not a romance novel, and the athletes in these leagues are not fictional characters. In their enthusiasm to see their favorite show reflected in the real world, some ‘Heated Rivalry’ fans are behaving in ways that feel all kinds of icky.”
how 'heated rivalry' brought toxic fandom to the olympics
athletes do not exist to be used as objects by fans who want to escape into a feel-good fantasy

I started a series where the best friend is currently wearing sunglasses and a single mitt that make him look like a lobster. No explanation. He's immediately my favorite.

Okay well good call. I start at the end of the month. It's temporary, but six months temporary and anything can happen in that time. (Worst case is I come back to this job, which is held open for me.)
I don't have good news, I only have vibes, but on that alone I've started the list of what I have to close out and clean up at work if I get another job, if only to stop that list from running riot inside my brain.

Current mood.

Your dads hope you're taking care of yourself!

Okay so the cat stuff is extremely twee & I don't care about any of it, but I *do* care about Khaotung's beautiful face & the heartbreaking fact that he had no one to stay with him after a funeral but his creditor, so I'm in for now.
I watched the trailer but I'm still here. I guess it depends on how much the cats actually talk. The things we do for you, Khaotung!
GMMTV giving me reasons to live... except I don't know about that talking cat series. That feels a bridge too far for me, even for those boys.

My favorite thing on the Internet this morning is people giving Tay a hard time for posting a bunch of shirtless photos (there are more - this was just the top!)

Seeing how many times people have watched HR in the last three weeks has me feeling better about things like this. (This is over five years.)

Very funny to find this ad on the MDL page for My Romance Scammer

Guys I just checked and don't worry, My School President is still adorable.

It's Neo's birthday! I did create the "extra star for Neo" tag on my letterboxd, & I stand by that, also I don't know where I found this image since I don't watch interviews, but it delights me.

The crushing disappointment of realizing you're actually current on Burnout Syndrome, and not one episode behind, thanks a lot New Years Eve.

Thought about this again tonight when he bemoaned his single status in yet another series, and this time tried to give himself to the sea. Honestly the most relatable part of the whole show.
Recently watched two different BLs where JJ was complaining about being single, but I'm in a third one now where he isn't & I think he has regrets.

Was I so distracted by the *head of HR* offering to help me prep for an interview that I almost forgot to apply to this week's other job? Sure enough.

Well I just recommended 10Dance to a co-worker so I think my work here is done and I should be allowed to go home.

For all I complain about work, it is kind of cool to come back to the office and find the Mayor's oath of office on my desk. (I am the final step for that document!)

Thank you P'Aof for posting about Ticket to Heaven so that I know it's still coming 🙏

Back at work tomorrow for the first time in two and a half weeks, and thank goodness it's my wfh day because my one goal is to apply to two jobs, also I expect the morning to be devoured by software updates.

I'm watching a 90s lesbian movie that just did the smoothest accidental kiss I've ever seen in my entire life. They can give lessons (to BL actors.)

Co-star says it's time to rewatch Yuri on Ice

I finally did this, and I'm taking suggestions. I feel like I've seen at least one more, but I can't search my Twitter anymore since I locked it.
