every summer I'm like: this is, it this year is my summerrrrr, I'm gonna spend all my time at the pool and in the river and in the woods, I'm finally gonna make the most of it!!! and then I'll have five days off in a row at the end of June and be so incredibly fatigued I go outside maybe twice the entire time. grocery shopping. maybe a little yard work. and then I have to play the stupid game of is this depression, or is it my thyroid, or is it anemia, or is it a drug side effect, or am I just tired regular style because sometimes people are tired? and I don't fucking get to DO anything except lay around...

you know those videos of tortoises getting brushed? yeah

It probably is kind of fun to be a parent bird and find big fat bugs to put in your child’s goalpost mouth. And the more you do it the larger your baby gets, which shows your progress. Mine is reaally big, think I’m going to get a high score this time. It has a unique skin too, I’ve never even seen this one before. Has anyone gotten that one, dark brown and white belly with stripes? It’s not even in my Wrenpedia, it has to be a really special unlock

armand’s exes complaining about him being a needy bottom or whatever is pissing me off. fine i’ll do it since you’re all so fucking complicated

Is it acceptable that I do shave my legs only because it’s easier to put lotion on my legs when they aren’t too hairy and I do like the feeling of smooth skin when I finish up with it.

I also only really do it once or twice a month so sometimes I do go out in public with hairy legs.

come on man i'm on my lunch break can't you wait???

Orcanize and find your pod.

I've been looking forward to Junicorn for half a year and i can't even participate properly as i'm busy with other art + art fight preparations 😩

But i sure can drop these 4 quick weirdos as my contribution to it...

I do think the ability to emoji-react is a net win for human communication. not only does it give you an outlet for 'I see and acknowledge this but don't have a verbal response' but it also adds a pleasing alethiometer element to things

my coworker announces that he's off to the dentist. someone reacts with a tooth emoji. is this a statement of dentist solidarity? a wish for my coworker to return with more (or fewer?) teeth than he set out with? simple word association? who can say

[nicostiel]

He's doing so well

why are louis and armand both wearing little bangles was that the trendy thing for mentally ill vampires in 2025

[audible-smiles]

you know, while I am a little sad we didn't get more extended/realistic flashback sequences in this season, I do think they're successfully selling the concept that we only got that from Louis as a narrator because he was dwelling extensively on his past, while Lestat is doing everything in his power to avoid thinking about his. sort of an "if I keep my body moving and my mind occupied at all times I will avoid falling into a bottomless pit of despair' vibe, but it's not working.

Why this got me boppin at my desk tho lol

Baby sphinx trying to be like mama and waylaying travelers, but all its riddles are completely non-sensical like the ones a 1st grader would tell

Imagine if people watched Interview with the Vampire and it inspired them to think about how the past is in a very real way inaccessible to us and memory can be misleading even when you're not being dishonest and different people can have different experiences of the same event that feel emotionally true and are very real to the people who experienced them even if they contradict each other and often you will never be able to know what really happened and how this can make repairing damaged relationships difficult and threatening to a person's sense of self

Because I feel like kids of color don’t hear it enough: domestic abuse is not a part of your culture. 

A lot of us were raised with the idea that “its normal for wives/children to get hit! it helps them learn– only white folk don’t get beaten when they misbehave”. That’s not true, white people aren’t the only ones who deserve a safe and abuse free environment. Black and brown people can and do have loving families. 

If you’re in a situation where you are enduring abuse and people use your culture to justify it, I want you to know that what they’re telling you are lies.

[dragon-in-a-fez]

as someone who studies this: statistically speaking, child abuse (including “spanking”, because all forms of hitting children are abusive) is pretty much equally prevalent in households of all racial, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds. so yeah, don’t let people use the “culture” excuse on you, but also, don’t believe others are experiencing it less just because it’s less normalized in their culture to talk about it. we all gotta work together to fix this shit.

everyone is meeting me in the grotto
