words evade the author

Is all that we see or seem but a dream within a dream?

CHAOS WILL PURSUE SHOULD YOU CONTINUE TO SCROLL THROUGH THIS BLOG!!!

Me?

You can call me A or Darcy. I don’t mind either. A is the first letter of my name and I’m obsessed with Mr. Darcy, so 🤷‍♂️

I do a lot of complaining, a lot of thinking, and a lot of reading.

I’m a minor (My birthday is the fifteenth of May!)

I lived in America for a long time, but I live in Ireland now, so you can ask about either and I’ll probably have an answer.

I love reading. This will become quickly apparent if it hasn’t already lol

Specifics?

🎶music 🎶 NOAHFINNCE, Conan Gray, Maisie Peters, Mumford and Sons, Hozier, and Lizzy McAlpine, Florence + the Machine

I have never, and will never, use "ofc" to mean "of fucking course". It literally stands for OF Course...

Stopping point if you find yourself on your phone doomscrolling, procrastinating, or “stuck”

You can move to scroll in another space (if you haven’t gotten out of bed yet, move to the couch; if you haven’t left the house yet, you can sit outside)

You can make your current space more pleasant to scroll in (if it’s not possible to move spaces, open a window or light a candle in your space)

You can scroll while taking care of your body (change into clean clothes, scroll while brushing your teeth or washing your face, scroll while drinking water or having a snack)

You can stay on social media but avoid depressing or mindless content (try searching for fun facts, hobbies you’re interested in, or good news)

Hard mode: try just making the switch on your phone from short-form to long-form content (from dozens of short posts to an article, a fanfic, or an ebook; from TikToks/Reels/Shorts to a interesting or fun YouTube video, podcast, audiobook, or film) — this can be the first step in transitioning out of being “stuck,” because you can, for example, go on a walk while listening to an audiobook, fold clothes while watching a video, etc.

Expert mode: Set a timer for one minute and put down your phone. Do anything else. (Take deep breaths, go get a drink, pick up a book or craft.) If you can do this, aspire to two or five minutes and keep increasing your time away from scrolling. (Use your phone to play music, a podcast, or an audiobook if this prevents you from picking it up again)

Good luck! I hope you were able to make your scrolling a touch more cheerful today!

All the PHM fanart just sort of agreed that Rocky's unseen life-partner Adrian is taller than him and they have a tall-and-short-duo dynamic, and it kinda reminded me of Abbott and Costello from "Arrival" lol.

How come all four modern iconic space movies have badass powerful female redhead characters?

(how come two of them are Jessica Chastain, lol)

REASONS TO NOT END IT:

"ao3 exists. that sounds stupid, but i’m being dead serious. it is a constant reminder that people love stuff enough to create for one another with compensation. that is an act of love that is shared with all, bonded by adoration of story. in a weird way, it is one of the purest forms of art in the world."

There's a girl who takes a cello to music school, I never realized how huge a fucking cello is

[waitingonabook]

My friend plays cello and he has to take the lift in school because the music room is on the first (second if you count the ground) floor.

[h0bbes-is-c000l]

I just realised I wrote “rythm” instead of “rhythm” in my English lit exam today 😣.

[waitingonabook]

I realised today that I wrote “kinght” instead of “knight” on my history exam.

🤝

[waitingonabook]

Yeah, so I’m going to need some Leaving Cert weather right about now. Please. You can’t sell your souls for nothing. This is the deal. 😭

I need some sunshine.

[manuciruja]

awww the like button turns into a rainbow when you press it! that's so cute...hey staff what's with all the trans women you keep nuking?

[manuciruja]

i think we should be ridiculing them more for this. you don't get to try and go all "queer website" when your staff likes to go on nuking sprees targeting the trans fem users

[smadsel]

would be remiss not to mention that the rainbow notably straight up just removed the trans flag colors from it. like they’re gone. it’s the progress flag minus the trans flag colors.

[smadsel]

that’s not the whole flag, now is it

[manuciruja]

hey staff what the fuck

[villainessbian]

hey staff don't you think you're being too on-the-nose

[shrodingers-catgirl]

HEY STAFF DONT YOU THINK YOU'RE BEING TOO ON-THE-NOSE

And it’s still marked as mature wtf tumblr

[waitingonabook]

I live just down the road from a daycare and it’s so funny because I’ll see parents walking back into my estate with empty strollers or carrying their kiddo’s scooter. I’m starting a rumour that my estate may be a bit haunted

[waitingonabook]

it is entirely way too early to be awake

[britain-offical]

I want to get a yellow car so when I drive around I can see kids punching eachother

[buzzycrow]

yeah

[chr0nically-b0red]

REALLL i have this one friend in my classes who also gets a bus so every day we walk to tye bus bay and pass this yellow car and every fucking time she gets there first (exept once) lmaooo

[waitingonabook]

I did the yellow car thing too many times to my dad and he eventually broke.

Me: yellow car *lightly punches because he’s driving and I don’t want to die*

My mom: hahaha

My dad: What the fuck?? Yknow what? Yellow flower tickle! *he proceeds to tickle my mother*

Yellow flower tickle has continued.

[cuunos]

being a kid and hearing adults say stuff like "woah 2011 was 4 years ago haha" didn't really convey the fucking horror of a youtube video crossing my recommended labelled "9 years ago" and it's from 2017. that's not true. 9 years ago is 2010 or something. don't lie.
