Happy Pride!

[rootbeergoddess]

Every pride, you must reblog this. No exceptions

[thesaltofcarthage]

I love that four different people on my feed scheduled this joyous person to reblog by 8am on June 1. I look forward to seeing this a dozen more times today.

I can't believe it's about to be mid-year soon, the years are going by so fast, I recently got the Tumblr birthday msg for my account and it's only 3 years old but I really made my account to follow you so it's got me thinking...3 years and I have yet to find a better comfort fic for myself. Unless if I ever end up finishing my stuff but that could take decades. So just a reminder that I love you and your writing and i hope life's going better for you! Things are just crazy everywhere this year it seems, esp the US. And I get so easily overstimulated when I'm online, but at least there's fanfiction to enjoy thanks to writers like you.

Anyway, like I said, hope you are well and just remember you are very much appreciated. I'm so glad I found your blog, its one of those things where my life would have been extremely different if I hadn't, the way I think and I write (rarely) has been affected a lot.

Much love! 💕⚗️

YOU'RE TOO KIND!!!

It might take me decades, too, so I'm right there with you. (But not really--hopefully not decades lol). I'm so glad that you enjoy it so much, seriously. I write to self-express and all that, but it's so so rewarding when other people get something out of it.

I know I've been weird and distant and negative, but I'm slowly coming out of my cage and doing kinda fine now. (Except the Avs should've made it to the Final with the season they've had but now they're eliminated so that's my most recent despair)

Man, I'm so happy that I've had some sort of positive impact!! It's motivating me to get more active! I may not write more than the end of ETS, but at least I can hopefully do that and be more present in the community that I can honestly say has been so supportive and encouraging and positive--you especially!!

Le Figaro have a newly published photograph from inside Notre Dame shortly before the roof collapsed, as molten lead fell into the nave. (+)

This is what I love about photojournalism. It is just a history of moments where human beings have gone “I know I should really be hauling ass out of here but I have to get a picture of this”

went to a new optometrist today wearing my squid facts ‘save our freaks’ shirt from @sarahmackattack that has a strawberry squid on it. and i wasn’t even thinking about it but the optometrist walked in and he was like ‘oh what does your shirt say’ so i showed him and he was like ‘oh that’s neat!’ and then i thought he might like to know about strawberry squid eyes since they have weird eyes and he is an optometrist and all. so i was like ‘yeah it’s actually a real kind of squid called a strawberry squid, their eyes are really cool because they have one big yellow-green one and one small blue one’ and he kind of gasped and went ‘oh my god that’s so interesting i wonder why they have that. do you know what their retina composition is like?’ and i watched as he minimized my chart on the computer and started looking up images of strawberry squid and then he googled ‘strawberry squid retina composition’ and he was like ‘sorry we’ll get to your eye exam in a moment i just really want to find out’ LMAO 10/10 optometrist experience will be returning

[sarahmackattack]

Hell yeah

[soychronicprocrastinator]

He’s in the right for that this is so cool

It is so human and so not romance novel that after Elizabeth Bennet in Pride & Prejudice reads Mr. Darcy's letter and accepts that Wickham was the real villain and not him, her reaction is not, "Oh no, I loved and lost him!" it's "Oh shit, I fucked up! I hope I never see that man again in my entire life."

crazy how you can get used to working around problems that have very easy fixes. for like 6 months we used a hand towel to jam a kitchen cabinet closed because the hinges were broken and it turns out fixing it took me like $5 and 20 minutes. bedroom door has been squeaky for years and all it needed was a lil wd40. im sure this can apply to mental health too but i wouldnt know about all that.

Note: WD40 does not work on anxiety. Smells bad. Anxiety peaks. Use a natural based lubricant such as coconut oil. Smooth anxiety. Sweetly scented.

"Sewing is a gateway drug to thinking through complex problems. It seems really simple; culturally, we make it women's work. Let me tell you: real sewing at any kind of level of proficiency is a bloody magic trick. Sewing, like mold making, involves mental frames that require one to think inside out and backwards. It requires one to work on an order of operations that is often taking into account the reverse. It's a really, really important skill, and if you learn how to sew, you're mostly on your way to carpentry and welding and sheet metal work. I'm not kidding: these are planar forms meeting under rules and conditions. And if you can make a sleeve work, I swear to God, you could build a house."

sometimes an american will be talking to you and they start throwing around numbers like 70 or 90 when talking about the weather and you just have to smile and nod

Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy being like, "I am 100% committed to respecting your 'no', but I heard you wouldn't promise my aunt not to marry me so I had to come and check just one (1) more time."

immediately after an interaction: i have GOT to get more normal oh god i need to get more normal immediately i have to get more normal or they're going to hunt me down they're going to hunt me down and flay me for sport

during an interaction: and why not put a little spin on it? why not add some conversational zest?

I was going back through some of my fav ETS highlights and noticed Sy either saying or asking the reader to say she's his. It's too many times to not be intentional. Is he doing this on purpose to reassure her? Or is it more of an unconscious thing for his own mind after his past experiences being cheated on? Or maybe that just turns his crank😏?

The main reason for this is to "drill it in her head" that she's his, that she's loved, special, protected, adored, cherished, all of it. The more he says things, the more she will believe it.

Does being possessive also turn him on? Hell, yeah.
