18, all pronouns

[olivesinapot]

Hi, I’m Olive.

I’m 18, I go by all pronouns (including any neos, feel free to go crazy!), and I’m aspec queer.

DNIs: transphobes, racists, porn blogs, religious people, etc.

now the problem with going to the gym is that I like it. It’s nice, i feel exercised. But also I am disabled and recovery time for simple things is much longer than normal people

[olivesinapot]

unfortunately for everyone i hate myself

[olivesinapot]

all I do is post about my best friend and complain. Both of those are my soulmates

[olivesinapot]

making fandom ocs with your bestie is all fun and games until it spirals out of control and your ocs are now multifandom and also in their own fully original storylines. i was writing military propaganda fanfiction about them and now im creating a fictional mythos to fit them

opinion on first person in published books (excluding fan content)

I prefer it

I avoid it

I'll read it either way

Voting ended onJun 11

I'm trying to figure out the best way to write my first original draft, and I'm thinking it might be easier to write in first person due to the fact that the MC is alone for majority (if not all) of the first part. That said, I want to hear from other people about their reading preferences, so please reblog for a larger sample size!

so my best friend has various issues relating to roleplaying due to past experiences and trauma, but has recently begun to want to ‘try it out’ again. Which is great, because I would LOVE to help then feel more comfortable doing things he enjoys. The only problem is now I’ve committed to running two OC side blogs that are in a lesbian relationship, while they also run two OC sideblogs in a gay relationship. And on top of that, we have two discord accounts each for these characters we have in a private server because using tupperbox was too familiar.

It’s just funny to me because now I have two completely new email accounts that are connected to two completely fleshed out people that aren’t even real. My personas are just sitting there, I can lie to everyone. And it started with roleplaying a gay/lesbian polycule with my best friend.

2-YEAR CHEDDAR

from GRAFTON VILLAGE

I usually try to review cheeses virginally - that is, ones that I’ve never had before. In this case, this is a cheddar I’ve had many times before. But I couldn’t leave it off the blog, what with its obvious appeal to leather and rubber fetishists.

As far as cheddars go, Grafton’s 2-year aged isn’t going to shock you. It’s mild, light on the salt, with a slightly sweet and grassy flavour. It’s got a nice texture. It’s dense, more moist than I expected, and smooth.

So what is the deal with the gummi suit on this cheese anyway? Well, cheese has obviously been around a lot longer than fridges. Fresh cheeses like mozzarella are too moist to last very long outside of a cold place (bacteria and fungi do so love damp places), though I don’t think anyone was too mad about eating that stuff quickly. But cheeses that have been aged (and dried) more have some more preservation options, which is where cheese wax comes in. The wax is a physical barrier, stopping fungal spores from landing, and also blocks moisture and air, making the cheese a pretty unfriendly place to grow. Even drier cheeses can be bandaged in cheesecloth and then slathered in lard to preserve them while allowing some ventilation.

I gotta admit: hot wax isn’t really my thing. But cheesecloth bondage and grease… it has potential.

this fucking kills me

I like to credit sudden popularity of self shipping to the rise of the term “yumeshipping”, not because it has anything to do with it being a ‘fun/cute’ Japanese term (although there is truth in that), but because it opens up the door for a bunch of other terms too.

Yumehating. My f/e. Enemy.

Yumeparenting. My f/c. Child.

Yumekinning. My f/s. Sibling.

The possibilities are endless, guys. The word is so much greater than we can imagine.

[paper-bag-yearning-syndrome]

Oh my goodness gracious yumeparenting is an actual term? Oh my lord using that immediately

[paper-bag-exploration-syndrome]

Reblogging on the main because of the sheer peakness of this

[olivesinapot]

I actually don’t know if it’s a real term, but I decided it was the greatest thing ever so it is now

I think it would be easy to just… go off grid. Like, move four states away. Block everyone. I don’t think it would be hard at all, I think the movies make it more complicated than necessary.

[olivesinapot]

opening shifts are like if you tried to take a piss in hell and it just evaporated and now the air has the energy of piss and you’re just tired and miserable

[olivesinapot]

my best friend routinely listens to my boundaries and makes it seem like the easiest thing in the world. and it just makes me wonder why. nobody else seems to be able to do the same

[olivesinapot]

I’ve been writing a lot of oc lore lately, and I love it, but I also just… miss writing regular fanfiction. I wish I could go back to writing found family tropes about other people’s characters instead of getting fixated on my own. I’m too particular about my own personal stories, and everytime I mess up I get absurdly upset at myself. It kind of sucks the fun out of writing in total.

[youcantstopmefromshippingit]

I want to write a fanfic so bad but my writing isn't good enough... my mind comes up with phrases so good I cannot believe I was the one thinking them but the second I try to write one of them down my writing skills turn into those of a first grader and all the pages with the beautiful words in my mind are burned.
