😂😭 Yeah omg

I am going on day 3 of this perfume that has embedded itself into my skin and won't let go. My wrist still smells like some sort of mummified, bitter peach. I even tried removing it with oil when soap and water didn't work. It is more clingy than my stalker ex!☠️

No it was a Thinkpad but I think the slimmer the profile of the laptop the more likely it is to get connection issues with the monitor. And then it costs so much to fix that it's just not worth it. 😭

I think I want to try it! But you are all very advanced so it's a little intimidating 😅
November 28, 2025 at 3:18 AM
Cool! Yeah, I want to start simple and just see how it goes. I am nervous and excited!

I was told that this has to do with how much natural oil/sweat people have on their skin and what the pH of it is. And the variation can be HUGE in the scent and how long they last. Which def checks out for me LOL.

Yeah frfr!! I am almost never this luck. Usually it would die on like Jan 10th or something when all the sales have passed 😂

Yes, I am totally taking this personally. This perfume knew that I liked it and decided to bail. 😂

The other one has decided to become my new, unwanted spouse.

The one I hated I went home and washed off. My wrist still smells like it this morning.

The one I loved wore off in about 3 hours.

Why.

I found one! Slickdeals .net is always a good option. There might be better deals on Friday but I didn't want to wait and then risk having it all sold out LOL

😭💜 I want to! I am just slightly terrified.

I will try to see if I can find my old discord account and then (more importantly) get over my introvert tendencies to feel brave enough to try joining a new space where I'm not proficient. I think Auntie Iroh sent me the contact a while back when I had a fandom friend who wanted to try as well.
November 26, 2025 at 3:16 PM
Oooh!! I will definitely check out the podfics you've done of your own work. I find it so interesting to hear the author's Actual Voice compared to the voice I have in my head LOL. (yes, I have voices in my head)

I feel a little intimidated by the wangxian podfic server.😅 You are all very skilled.
November 26, 2025 at 12:30 PM
Thank you! ♥️Yeah, I made an account on Internet Archive yesterday. That seems like a good place to start! I think I'm too intimidated to join the discord group since they are more advanced than where I'm at, but I might just play around with this over the holidays.

It was your podfic of Mimispearmint's Closer that I first heard. I usually just read but I didn't have Twitter access when you posted that threadfic from her and so there wasn't a 'read' option so I listened instead and I LOVED IT!!! So fun. I can hear fanfic while cooking dinner, which is great. 😂
November 25, 2025 at 6:45 PM
haha will do!!! I'm excited about this. It might be my holiday crafting project 😂
November 25, 2025 at 4:11 PM
One of the things I find interesting is learning about how the reader feels about the characters based on how they do the voices. Like, if wwx's lines are always read in a super arrogant/aggressive voice, or lwj sounds extra-passive no matter what, it hits differently than how I hear them in my head
November 25, 2025 at 4:10 PM
I have my own head canons on characters so I tend to not enjoy fics where wwx is useless/weak/stupid. But I have a lot of my favorites bookmarked on AO3! I would feel weird podfic'ing someone else's work since I won't be doing fancy things, but I hear you on enjoying seeing which fics people enjoy
November 25, 2025 at 4:10 PM
oooh!! Cool!! I will have to check it out!

Yeah, I'm probably going to go with the Internet Archive. What program did you use for recording?
November 25, 2025 at 3:31 PM
♥️
November 25, 2025 at 2:20 PM
oooh. I will check it out! I had downloaded Davinci Resolve (free), which someone had recommended, but it is way to complicated for me😭 and also looks more suited to video than pure audio.
November 25, 2025 at 2:20 PM
I love that! I read books to my kids and my fam when they're sick or injured or whatever, and life sucks for most of us right now so I just want to settle in to winter and read a story to my wangxian friends. 😂
November 25, 2025 at 2:15 PM
That feels very intimidating. There are some amazing podfic groups out there and I'm not on that level. I'm more at the "I just want to read a book to my friend" sort of skill 😅
