Things I like:
ampersands (&) i just love them so much. They're so beautiful and useful and interesting and and &&&&. <33 (or perhaps <&???)
Sewing and fashion and clothes etc, I make some of my own. Ask me about it I dare you
i had a very very minor mild obsession with space. that phase started around age 6 and hasn't really ended. so very minor. Less about the sciency bit and more the poetic, artistic beauty of it all. I still have glow in the dark stars and comets hanging from threads from my bedroom roof and a couple of telescopes and like a shit ton of books. anyway i still love space and shit but less sciency more just the aesthetic cos its pretty so anyway thats the story behind my url
I love lights. The stars the stars the stars. The moon the moon the moon. glow in the dark patterns on duvet covers and plastic stars, cities at night, roads in the dark, when everyone has their phone torch on at a concert, crepuscular light through the clouds, when the sun is low in the sky and sets the sky of fire When you half close your eyes when the sun is on your face and it makes the rainbow oil spill hexagon things. Also just like. Clouds. They're so pretty. I love the different shapes and patterns they can make, how they look in different lighting. Just the sky in general really. I have the eyes of an impressionist. Not great at landscapes at the moment tho...
i do my own gel nails every month or so and i do nail art cos one colour is kinda boring. Always looking for ideas. Send them to me please. I'm running out of ideas. Help.
i have like 2bish curly hair so that is a struggle sometimes, any product or hair routines etc recommendations would be greatly appreciated
Art. Of any kind. Loving Vincent van gogh at the moment. And also klimt monet, all the cliched ones. But also I believe that anything and everything is art. If it makes you feel something. It's art. The world is just so fucking beautiful. I love romance but like the movement and philosophy of looking for the beauty in everything, in every tiny mundane part of your life. I think everyone should romanticise their life but not by hiding what isn't romantic, but by appreciating it and finding the beauty
i want to see the world. I can't imagine living my whole life in the same 50 mile radius. Soon I will be old enough and brave enough to go places that I've never been without someone with me. There is so much beauty everywhere and i want to see as much as i can
DNI if you're bigoted, misogynistic, racist, homophobic, TERFs etc
Icon by me. I think I was a bit depressed when I drew it. Or there'd be trees. I might change it. Maybe on paper this time cos digital art is hard. And with trees. Ive become more of a green person than blue/purple. And tbh im glad to leave the purple version of myself behind.
Tags that I use:
#The stars speak - my original thoughts, posts, etc etc. Anything that's me speaking
#for science - polls. Please please please reblog these so I can get more than 8 votes. Even tho I've been on here for like 3 years I've got a very small community. And most of my moots have a bigger community so they don't often see my posts :(
#the mutuals <3 - interacting with the besties <3
Posts I kinda just want to keep just cos there's stuff I like about them idk
The tags of this one omg <3
Whatever the fuck this is
Mutuals of note (besties <3):
Disclaimer! I call everyone my bestie. That kid I sat next to in engish for 2 months when I was 12 was my bestie (hi joe)(there is a 100% chance he is not on here), my pals mum who ive spoken to exactky 3 times is my bestie (hi agata)(she is also definutely not on tumblr), that author who's books I love so dearly is my bestie (hi Maggie)(ok she might actually be on here but is far too famous and successful to be reading this). Point is, if you chat to me even a little bit i may add you to this (if I remember) I had a few months away from tumblr and can't really remember who is who, so I apologise if we've had conversations before/if I can't remember things.
@aspenii, most beloved of mutuals.
@heartstopper-lover123, tag her in all your tag games <3
@fraudfrogz whom I have not spoken to in a long time, but who is my intp bestie always and forever <3 and who also made me all my blinkies!! <33
@mangomarmalade13 who has taught me much about the nuances of learning to drive in the usa
There are more besties but it's my bedtime so I will go to sleep now and probably not update this for another year
If you are sad because you are not on this list it is probably because I feel like I'm not one of your most beloved mutuals. Not the other way round, send me an ask or something with the first question that comes into your head, the song that's stuck in your head right now, or the book you're currently reading.
