Curated by ADHD, baby!

Multi-fandom, multi-interest! Queer in all senses - she/her is fine. Gen X (aka fully grown adult) and NSFW. Find me on AO3!

Welcome New Followers!!

I seem to have picked up a bunch of new followers recently? So I wanted to do my usual *awkward wave* and hello and make sure you know what you’re getting yourself into.

Jan. 2023 - NOW phdmama (NO HYPHEN!!). phdmama on AO3.

I’m an adult. I swear. I post NSFW. 

I love many ships and I read pretty widely across my chosen fandom (Drarry, FirstPrince, Buddie, Stucky, Sterek, Destial, OMG CP, Larry on occasion, just to name some). (ETA I’m so sorry folks but apparently we’re adding hockey now too - 3/2023)

When I love stuff, I love it hard and I get very enthusiastic. My biggest goal is to be a positive voice in the fandom, to support my fellow creators.

I’m a writer. Writing has brought me community and joy and friends. I’m not currently looking for concrit from folks I don’t know, as I have a strong and supportive writing community. (Note: all my fics are locked on AO3 so that you need to be logged in to see them! Nothing has been deleted!)

I am a huge proponent of supporting people writing exactly what they want. I love people who tag well but I understand that all fic is enter at your risk.

Respectfully, I prefer that people don’t “continue” or “finish” any of my writing (drabbles, vignettes) for me without talking to me first.  Thank you so much for understanding!

I’m a huge proponent of curating your own internet experience. It’s all opt in baby, and if you want or need to opt out, no harm no foul.

I have ADHD and I’m bad about remembering to queue (trying to get better), so you may just get a flurry of posts from me. Sorry.

I post a lot of non-fandom stuff too. Things I think are funny or thoughtful or moving. I also post things I think about. I try very hard to tag for difficult content (and I’m very willing to try and tag specifically if needed but I really cannot guarantee that, so if that’s a thing you need, this may not be a safe blog for you).  I post my own poetry. Occasionally my own photography.

So, if this sounds good, welcome and yay! I’m so glad to see you!

Work it grandma

[hydramaticide]

OK I SAID WORK IT AND SHE REALLY DID

[greatmountainfloofsquatch]

I think you mean, "Work it, GREAT grandma". And she does!

[what-even-is-thiss]

I’m kinda surprised that nalbinding isn’t as popular as crochet and knitting tbh because it has an even lower barrier of entry tools wise and unlike crochet and knitting it makes fabric that you can cut.

I guess it’s because it’s slower or something.

[what-even-is-thiss]

Nalbinding aka needle binding is when you use yarn and a big sewing needle to make fabric btw

It also has a lot of different kinds of stitches you can do that make different densities of fabric.

Some people even make rugs.

[thewolfwaitsbelow]

I feel like part of it might be casual people are generally aware of the existence of crochet and knitting, even if they don’t know very much about either, but have never heard of nalbinding

[what-even-is-thiss]

Yeah I hadn’t heard of it until recently and I ordered a big bone needle for myself to try it out and that should be arriving soon.

I was surprised that I’d never heard of it though. It’s older than knitting and crocheting and even though it’s been done all over the world it’s super relevant to Nordic culture and my grandmother and I are both into keeping in touch with our roots a bit so I’m surprised I’ve never heard of it.

It seems like the sort of thing that would be popular even if not as popular as crocheting and knitting, considering the low barrier of entry.

[what-even-is-thiss]

You also don’t need a bunch of different sized needles for nalbinding or whatever. The size of the stitch is controlled either completely freehand or by pulling it against one of your fingers. Most people who have a lot of nalbinding needles seem to either have tried out wood, bone, and metal ones to see which kind they liked or they enjoy carving wood or bone and like making their own needles as an extra hobby.

It’s also a lot easier to freehand and adjust as you go than crochet or knitting and you mostly go by inches instead of rows and number of stitches so a large number of accessories like stitch markers or whatever isn’t really necessary.

Maybe the lack of accessories also makes it unpopular idk. People do like collecting things in their nests.

[the-color-of-sound-is-space]

I've been wanting to do so, I cannot find anyone who can teach me, and any books I can find on it are Ass in the Visual Learning department. Otherwise I'd be making the hell outta some nalbinded fabric

[what-even-is-thiss]

I found this channel by a nice man who makes up close tutorials

Happy Needlebinding

I create videos on YouTube to learn people how to needlebind using two fingers and your thumb. Needlebinding helps people to relax, relieve

Ooh thank you for the tag! It is going in my hoard of links and such.

I am fascinated by nalbinding, but I'm also still working on my panic at cutting yarn to do colour changes in crochet (because then I can't undo it and reuse the yarn) so I feel like nalbinding will by necessity have to come after I can cut yarn without crying like, at least 80% of the time.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

ok i would like to clarify it has to be music and it can't just be a short song that's been looped a bunch. that still counts as several songs in one file, it's just several of the same song in one file. no audiobooks no podcasts no plants vs zombies theme 2 hour loop

to the people who said “this except alcohol”: i support you & your sobriety/preference for other substances. i hope all goes well and you have the best summer ever.

to the few people who said “this except rpf”: sorry this isn’t about you. this post is for real rpfers only and if you can’t get behind that then you aren’t invited to the BDY summer plans

[thoughtsickles]

people in books and tv shows are always getting so upset they throw an untouched meal in the trash. that would never be me. i'd receive the worst news of my life and still be like Let me put this in the fridge.

[succubusboyfriend]

practicing self care less out of self love and more for the sheer logical reasoning of it’d be kinda stupid of me to expect myself to be able to function without proper maintenance

[succubusboyfriend]

“oh i don’t deserve rest and relaxation, i haven’t done enough, i haven’t earned it” and my car’s breaks don’t deserve break fluid because they aren’t breaking well enough to earn it. that’s what you sound like!!!!!
