Hi hi hi! I am Elly from e77y <|:)

I bet you were entranced by my cool symbols, weren’t you? You sly dog, you………

I’m a full-time rhetoric grad student and incoming composition professor. In my free time, I enjoy classical singing, creative writing, craft crafting, and playing on the ’puter. I sometimes post fandom stuff on @cha1cedony

I dream of shitposting but typically lack the energy and discipline required (it’s a hard job), so instead I come on here maybe three times a week to gripe while procrastinating or post about a mildly funny thing that happened to me. I also like to reblog cool bugs and silly things sometimes. I hope you enjoy my flights of fancy <3

I am terribly terrible at responding to DMs (sorry), but if you poke me (just say “Elly e77y I am poking you with a stick poke poke poke”) I’ll probably come out.

That’s about it! Commonly used tags below :)

Few things in life are better than the scent of Cetaphil 🧖‍♀️

i confess i don't really understand what people mean when they say they cannot find good books to read anymore. like. go to the shop or library and choose a book??

[penny-anna]

the problem generally seems to be something along the lines of 'everyone on tiktok is telling me to read books i think sounds bad' and its like ok i do not think those people have your best interests at heart

[distinguished-shipper]

My "trick" is to go to the nearest physical place where you can get books. Bookstore, library, charity shop, whatever suits you.

Once there, scan the shelves and physically pick up the first book that sparks even the slightest interest in you. No nuance, no further thoughts, just grab it.

This book is now your baseline.

From here, you can keep browsing and compare every next book you see to the one you've got in your hand.

If something else seems more interesting, swap it out! If another choice would be more practical, e.g. a little paperback instead of a thick hardcover tome whilst on vacation, swap it out! And so on and so forth, for as long as you fancy and/or have other books available.

Having a real book in hand to start with allows you to compare and contrast, which is a lot easier on the brain than hunting for the nebulous idea of a "perfect choice".

[penny-anna]

^^ yeah i know its not a great option for everyone but there's something about being able to physically browse books. online shopping is great for finding specific stuff but u cannot beat being able to pick up and handle books if you don't know what you're looking for

[segamascott]

it's okay to block people for being mildly annoying unless of course it's me in that case you're just gonna have to suck it up sorry

it must feel good as hell when you’re a horse and you take a big bite out of an apple like ttshoke

your command over onomatopoeia is unmatched bestie

I love the characters descriptions in Style Savvy so much. Each of them get one or two sentences, so it’s really funny when one of their descriptions is “has low blood pressure” or “buys holiday gear but never wears it” vs. the ones that are like “famous supermodel”

[e77y]

Also the ones that are like “loses things a lot” or “spends all her time on social media” or “awful at math.” Like thank you game for telling me what an absolute girlfailure she is. I’m gonna sell her a $500 outfit now

[e77y]

And types of people I never knew existed. “Visits river sources. So far, she’s been to 32 of them” yk what… love that for you Maureen

[e77y]

“Gets sad when she drops her cellphone.” Well yeah

[e77y]

“Collects screws. Has great respect for the inventor of the screw.” I think I am in love with you
