they should invent a body that feels normal to be inside of

btw it's so fucking stupid you can be anxious physically in your body even after you've decided mentally you don't care. I'm supposed to be in charge here

I’d be more surprised if I wasn’t having a migraine, honestly.

I think queer joy is so infectious because queer love stories remind us what a heteronormative and patriarchal society have tried to make us forget - love must also be a radical act of acceptance, both of oneself and of the other.

Yes this post is about Shane learning to accept his queerness as he fell in love with Ilya, yes it's also about Dan and his journey from internalized homophobia to the lovely hard launch era.

But it's also me being convinced that you don't have to love yourself to be loved, but love and acceptance will enlighten all the parts of you that are worthy of self love and self acceptance.

And everyone deserves true acceptance and love.

Next time god and universe give me any energy I'm going to write so much about how project hail mary is actually a metaphor for the social model of disability

[literaryera]

I have a complete inability to tell when I'm sick, just having a normal day with chronic illness, or when my meds are hecking my life up

I keep hearing John Green say he's retired from working and lemme just say John Green is the least retired retired person I've ever seen.

why is it so hard for people to grasp that disabilities disable and chronic illnesses are chronic. yes even when it inconveniences you. yes even when your patience runs out

i love embroidery but embroidery wants me dead unfortunately

[literaryera]

Reading Project Hail Mary is an exercise in trust. At any given moment Andy Weir could just be making stuff up and I'd have no idea.

[literaryera]

I love Andy Weir, but damn these books are not crafty friendly. There are way too many numbers being thrown about for me to have any idea whether I need to purl or knit.

Truly I hate to do this to you all but; you can watch all the videos and read all the blogs in the world but you cannot learn to sew without at some point picking up a piece of fabric and fucking it up. No tutorial exists that will stop you at some point ruining this poor piece of cloth. The visceral act of holding a project and wondering where you went wrong is the only way to learn sewing; you cannot escape it. I’m sorry
