“I have many lovers, at least, I think I do. I have lovers I have never touched. Lovers I have never seen. Lovers I have only shared words with. Lovers both platonic and sexual. I think a lover is someone who is genuinely interested in the thoughts and feelings you keep deep inside. A lover is someone who wholeheartedly cares for you.”

please reblog if you hear music inside your head all the time
Im a musical bean
This will always be my favorite gifset. Ever.
im morally obligated to reblog this every time i see it
I REMEMBER LAUGHING SO HARD AT THIS IT’S BACK
I’ve never seen this before until now but it’s going on my blog
So I checked my email today
I had two notifications from Archive Of Our Own, both from the same person, on two of my different stories.
This is what I responded with;
Don’t leave rude comments, kids. That’s not how you get more fic updates.
just a shout out to all the closeted polyamorous people out there. pls reblog so that they can see this. it’s important to let them know that they’re accepted.
Thank you
Yes. And it’s a damn hard thing to get over.
It’s weird how an attractive face is the criteria by which we decide whether or not to lick the area a person pees from
Playing with words that come to mind when it comes to polyamory. Picture #4.
Gratitude
One of the things I am embracing about polyamory is how, if you let it, it teaches you to be grateful for your time with your partners. In monogamy, that’s harder because you feel entitled to your relationship and romantic time with your partners because you’re the only one they have to give that to, even though in actuality that’s not true. Polyamory helps you realize that your partners don’t owe you a relationship, they choose to give that to you because they love you. I was listening to a song by Alicia Keyes about how she wanted to be kissed, loved like it was the last time and this hit me. When you see time with your partner as a gift to be cherished and not as something you’re owed, you can be more grateful for it and less likely to squander it. You can say to yourself “Do I really want to be in my feelings about what they’re doing with someone else or do I just want to enjoy what I have with them, what they give me?” It’s a remarkably difficult thing to do.
“Just because I’ve loved, and love, a lot of people, doesn’t make my love for you any lesser than it would be if we were monogamous.”

Emergency cleaning: Unfuck your whole house in the shortest time possible
So, your landlord/parents/home inspector/favorite movie star is dropping by, and your place is a disaster. You don’t have much time to clean it up. You’re in emergency mode. Let’s get started.
Don’t panic. Panic leads to fear, fear leads to procrastination, procrastination leads to the dark side. You can do this, but you have to stay calm.
Unlike maintenance cleaning, we’re not looking to completely unfuck one space at a time. Instead, we want to decrease the overall mess in stages, spread evenly across the whole area that we’re concerned about. If you think your home is at Level 10 filth, we want to bring the whole thing down to a Level 9, and then down from there. One really clean spot in an otherwise messy home is not going to be helpful here.
Get prepared. You’ll want to shut the computer down (or turn the modem off if you need your computer to play music). Trust me. Get your music going. Gather up trash bags, your vacuum and mop, some rags or paper towel, sponges, and other cleaning supplies. Use what you have on hand. Don’t get distracted running to the store and spending an hour browsing cleaning supplies. A multi-purpose cleaning concentrate or a jug of vinegar will be just fine.
Breaks are very important. Depending on your time constraints, work in 20/10s (20 minutes working, 10-minute break) or 45/15s. But take breaks because otherwise you’re marathoning, and marathon cleaning is no one’s friend. Keep hydrated, don’t forget to eat, and check in with yourself frequently to make sure you’re physically doing OK.
Make your bed. This will be your home base if you get overwhelmed or need somewhere clear to take a break.
Start with the garbage. Going from room to room, throw out anything that is obvious trash. Once you fill a bag, take it out. Repeat as many times as necessary.
Move on to dishes. Gather the dishes from all over your house and bring them to the kitchen. If you can, start them soaking in a sink of hot, soapy water or start loading the dishwasher. After the dishes are all in one place, spend one 20/10 getting started getting them under control.
Now it’s time for your flat surfaces. Countertops, tables, dresser tops, etc. Clear them off and wipe them down. Don’t get distracted in too much sorting and organizing. We’re in crisis mode here. There will be time to get in-depth once this is all done. The same applies to cabinets and closets. Unless you have reason to believe people will be opening closed doors, leave these alone for now.
Attack the floordrobe and shoe pile. Get your clothes either put away or in the hamper. Start a load of laundry if you need to, but keep in mind that laundry and dishes have three steps: wash, dry, and put it away, goddammit!
Get random stuff up off the floors. If something is trash-worthy, throw it away now rather than just move it around a bunch of times. Otherwise, put stuff where it belongs.
Take another 20/10 or 45/15 to catch up on more dishes, if needed.
Head into the bathroom. Pour some cleaner in the toilet bowl, fill the sink with hot water and cleaner, and either spray the tub and shower with cleaner, or fill the tub up with some hot water and add cleaner and let it soak. Put everything away that’s out and shouldn’t be, clean the mirror, counters, and toilet seat. Sweep or dry mop the floor. Wipe down the sink and tub/shower, and give the toilet bowl a scrub. Mop the floor.
Sweep and mop the kitchen floor.
Vacuum everything you can, and sweep everything you can’t.
Walk outside of your house (don’t lock yourself out, please). Walk back in and see what catches your eye first. Go and deal with that.
If you’re being inspected or your landlord is coming in for repairs, spend time on whatever area they’ll be focusing on.
Give the whole place one more once-over and pay attention to anything you’ve missed so far.
It’s an old trick, but if your place is a little funky-smelling, put a pan of water on the stove on low heat and add some citrus or cinnamon or vanilla. Don’t leave it unattended or forget about it.
Take a shower, put on something clean, and eat something.
You can do this. It’s overwhelming, yes, but it is not impossible. You just need to do it. You have a list. You have directions. You have a whole bunch of Internet strangers who have been there before and who are cheering you on. You can do this, but you need to get started.
Why are you still here? GO. START. NOW.
the number of times in my past that I desperately wanted/needed someone to sit me down and tell me this stuff. I will never get back the hours and hours lost to headless-chicken mode, but it’s nice to know that in the last year I’ve learned so many coping mechanisms :D
