Heads up y’all, tomorrow is the day of the great Eras Tour Watch Party. Just tune in, turn off, drop out, drop in, switch off, switch on, and explode.

Grab your cats and cardigans.
We stream at noon (IN DST).

OMG AND IT JUST BECAME A #LABYRINTH #SONGFIC why does my brain make so many forking ideas all the time 😹😹 #writerproblems
And what I’m saying is that so far I’ve re-written the lyrics for two of the songs from Emmy Rossum’s 2007 new age album because that little bit of madness my brain threw against the wall two years ago finally figured out how to speak to me. /4

Some hyper fixations are barnacles. They cling and attach and eventually you stop thinking about them so much and they exist, benign, along for the ride. /1

Who listens to songs on loop bc they’re the perfect emotional and sonic microcosm of whatever it is you’re trying to write? #writerlife #tismisms #autistichabits Current track c/o Charlotte Martin:

The urge to buy every notebook without even looking at what's inside. Get in, bitches, we're hippie-journaling next year 😁

Today I’m dealing with my biggest emotional pothole with POTS. #seewhatIdidthere

Some days, I can do right. Get enough sleep, salt & h2o. Do my reconditioning workout and PT, my HRV breathwork. Eat the right things in the right amounts. Sit quietly when I get tired, or dizzy, or short of breath. /1

Assad is now in Moscow, so Tulsi can visit all her friends in one place.

Much respect for fans that take matters into their own hands with fan fiction. Here’s Collin Trevorrow’s discarded Ep. IX “Duel of the Fates” as a motion comic w narration + voice acting. It’s nearly 3 hours! #StarWars #Fandom #FanFiction #DuelOfTheFates youtu.be/E02BkoY_K0I?...

watching a cold-weather #football team play a snow game is the closest any adult comes to the joy of playing in the snow as a child

Accents are required and will be mocked mercilessly with equitable affection.
What’s your golden rule for #TTRPGs?

I finally figured out why I don’t enjoy #pentatonix. What their harmonies lack in creativity, they try to solve with sheer number of voices; and the result is this kind of hollow complexity that sounds pleasant, but deprives the songs of all their deeper layers of meaning. Sorry, y’all. I tried!

It’s two days after Thanksgiving. November 30. Time to listen to ‘Last Christmas’ multiple times in preparation for this season of #whamageddon

We ride at dawn. May the odds be ever in your favor. #xmastraditions

POTS life: I am so glad I finally had a positive result that explained so many things. Until that tilt table study, this is how I felt after almost every consult and blood draw. I don’t like having this disease, but I’m glad to finally have an answer. #pots #chronicillnesslife

This is the urinary offender in question. Bluesky, meet Roget, named after the thesaurus. He’s sixteen, has hyperthyroidism, and his yowls for attention will pierce the eardrums of anybody within a twenty-mile radius.

Today I have to deep clean my carpet ~again~ because my oldest cat is 16 and at this point the world is his litter box. I will keep my curses quiet so my guy doesn’t think I’m mad at him, I’m just mad at the carpet for being as absorbent as the sales guy said it was. 😹 #catmom #catsofbluesky #catsky

My youngest feline would like me to introduce him in all his cuteness: this is Reggie, aka Sir Reginald of Biscuit. He may look beige on the outside but he is indeed very very orange on the inside.
