i just remember finding absolutely none of them compelling in any way and being utterly mystified as to why people were so invested, but that’s my experience with a lot of popular tv shows tbh soooo 🤷‍♀️

What’s the word where you’re from that, when pronounced exactly as it looks, identifies a tourist immediately?

i was literally having this convo with a friend the other week 😂 i was complaining about needing a snack, and she made three (to her) obvious suggestions and i was like…i keep none of those things in my house 🤣 and it really is just entirely about who you grow up with!

I'm playing a livestreaming @bandcamp.com show this Sunday with my friend Kelsey Riker!

she plays typewriter and rainstick and kazoo and cajon, all the things I can no longer play because of this gorram guitar in my hands.

This! There's all kinds of things I don't want to read so I curate my list, review tags, and back out of a fic that is not for me. All of that is my responsibility, not someone else's and definitely not some kind of imposed Rule From Above.

oh man i have so many that piss people off. so much 80’s and 90’s “must see” tv and movies never made it to me, lol. poor @the-deep-magic.bsky.social just assumes i’ve never seen anything at this point, and it’s honestly a fair choice.
