#OCSpeedDating

Here's Tara — she's such a fun character and I love writing her. You might have even seen some posts about her already if you follow me!

I didn't have any art of her (yet), so here's a moodboard instead.

#Writing #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts
#OCSpeedDating Profile! #OCSpeedDating Name: Tara Age: 19 Gender: Female Sexuality: Lesbian Personality: Loud, bold, snarky, playful, and very enthusiastic — Tara’s a whole personality on her own. She easily gets herself out of (and into!) trouble. Interests: Music (plays electric guitar), tarot, witchy stuff, fashion, thrifting. Also loves to gossip and stick her nose in unwanted places. Looking for: Someone to have fun with and bring along to her antics. Someone who genuinely likes her personality and someone she clicks with. A genuine connection — and maybe even the one. A moodboard for Tara. From left to right, bottom to top: A close up of nails with chipped red nailpolish, a close-up of a collage book with the text "witchcraft" visible, a shot of what looks to be a concert, with a guitar player visible, a shot of a girl sticking her head out the window in a big city, a shot of a girl composing a song with her guitar and laptop, shadow of two girls kissing, blurry shot of two hands holding up heart shaped lollipops, hands laying out three tarot cards, and a hand with assorted rings on it. Images from Pinterest. Quotes: "There's always another option. We could both fake our deaths?" Tara offered. “Have fun, Sam. Try not to explode while I'm gone.” "No problem, I'll keep insisting it 'till you accept it, or 'till your death bed. Whichever comes first." "I like to be prepared for any circumstance. What if a cute girl happens to be there and asks me out? I need to have a date outfit prepared." "Fine, okay! I admit it. I stole your secret stash of toast."

Are you coming to #VancouverIsland for Tod's #Nanaimo Infusion 2026 (April 24-26)

Join our Discord, tell us about yourself in the "Adopt" channel, and a local might volunteer to show you around.

Info at 2026.nanaimoinfusion.ca

(You do not have to be from the U.S. or work in healthcare to come!)
Screenshot of a Discord conversation in dark mode. In the first message, a woman from the Chicago suburbs introduces herself as a social services supervisor and children’s book author. She says she is travelling solo, enjoys history, art, food, bookstores, and thrifting, and prefers gentle walking over strenuous hikes. She asks to be “adopted” during her visit to BC. In the reply below, a couple from Nanaimo offers to host her. They describe themselves as artists, with backgrounds in tech and education, share her interest in thrifting and lighter activities, and suggest visiting a local bookstore, having lunch, and exploring vintage shops together.

I was favored by online thrifting gods and got my hands on this amazing book 🥺💕 Dethroned the previous center piece that was the AOR art book lol

Did a little thrift with my friend after work and found some proper treasures!! The tote bag is especially amazing because it's clearly handmade by someone 😍

#thrifting
Handmade patchwork totebag with a cute floral raccoon pocket on the front! The patches are all cool various geometric and floral patterns in a lot of bright picks, blues and greens. Closeup of the cute floral raccoon tote bag A retro goosebumps tin with the drippy letters and edges in blue, depicting a bunch of the classic book cover art in the middle and along the sides side view of the goosebumps tin showing all the spooky lil cover art with monsters and bugs and gross creepy stuff

so it went thrifting today and as far as it can tell it found a 50's songbook for british spies? cool
An old, simple looking, faded beige booklet with two rusted staples in the spine. It has a basic drawing in blue ink of a shirtless man playing a balalaika, "CAMOBAP" written in the top left, "SONG BOOK" along the bottom, and a crest (it thinks?) of a flying goose over two crossed rapiers and a circle with "JOINT SERVICES SCHOOL FOR LINGUISTS" written inside it, with a crown above it

Stevie Wonder's music will always remind me of the wife. When we were first dating we would go thrifting together a lot and she was a good luck charm. I found all the classic soul records I own in this one shop with her including Stevie's run from Talking Book to Songs In the Key of Life.

the horrors continued today, so the only good thing I did was spend time with some friends thrifting, bought myself sweatpants and a book for a friend, and none of that really takes the edge off of the actual pain of being aware of everything.

Nothing against the Mrs. Murphy mystery. It just wasn't for me. Kinda like The Second Husband. Decent storyline but I didn't connect with the characters and the shifting POV annoyed me. Not my style I guess. Book #8 will be Deadly Editions by Paige Shelton.

there's something a little bit heartbreaking about thrifting a book and finding it still has a bookmark in it

I don’t know how I am consistently so blessed by the thrifting gods but today, literally the first thing I see when I walk in is a complete series of vintage cartooning manuals next to a pristine full color edition copy of house of leaves, the one book I consistently wonder who stole

To this day I still haven't played New Horizons. But I do have this guide book I found while thrifting some time ago.

After the recent update should I finally get the game? I'm still unsure...

Day 3 in Boston. Thrifting in Cambridge before matcha soft serve for dessert. This bar on Newbury would sell out of merch if it were closer to the con. After cigars at Harvard, grabbed an excellent book of retro sci fi covers that will def serve as commission fodder. All ready for ANE! 🙌
