“stabbing crying killing hot” has a fantastic ring to it

If your lover lives in Hong Kong and cannot get to Chicago, it will be necessary for you to go to Hong Kong. Perhaps you will spend your life there, and never see Chicago again. And you will, I assure you, as long as space and time divide you from anyone you love, discover a great deal about shipping routes, airlines, earthquake, famine, disease, and war. And you will always know what time it is in Hong Kong, for you love someone who lives there. And love will simply have no choice but to go into battle with space and time and, furthermore, to win.

“Ilya seems very confident, very controlling. But he’s actually a deeply empathetic and kind lover, and that’s part of his character — that’s a reveal about Ilya. He may not want you to think that, but actually, he’s a really good guy. And part of that is reflected in the fact that he wants Shane to enjoy this too. He’s not looking for selfish sex; they’re both looking for a connection.” ⏤ Jacob Tierney

Ryan Gosling’s career has just been one long quest to climb the Warner Bros water tower

[notaplaceofhonour]

that man has been trying to climb this tower since he was 16. he has asked multiple times, and every time they said no, but now he’s famous enough & variety was able to convince them to do a shoot on the tower. it all led here. it was all for this.

[notaplaceofhonour]

I’m obsessed with the implication that this was a coming-of-age ritual where a boy becomes a man, like a bar mitzvah

[fuckrozanov]

the worst writing crime you can ever commit in my opinion is watering down the dirty talk because you’re self-conscious that it sounds like it’s from a bad porno…..i cannot stress this enough……leave it alone. the moment you tell yourself he would not fucking say that you’re doomed. people will say almost anything if their dick is hard enough

a good thing about having friends with kids is that you can just sow the seeds for something that you’ll never need to address again. like tonight my friend’s three year old saw me eating blue corn chips.

kid: what are you eating from that basket?

me: triangles.

kid: can i have triangles?

me: dunno, did you brush teeth yet?

kid: no

me: mhm, and are you okay with screaming really loud?

kidd: what???

me: yeah, sometimes these make you scream really loud, are you ok with that?

kid: i am not afraid of screaming.

me: you’re very brave. you can have two triangles. then why don’t you go show your dad your new power, i gotta go.

op u live up to ur username

Checking back in years later as a person who now has a four year old and a six year old and finally understands just how awful it is to have small children randomly screeching at maximum volume in a way that only someone with lived experience can

this is still very, very funny.

this may be one of the funniest things i’ve ever done actually.

[tricktster]

a good thing about having kids is that you can just sow the seeds for something that you’ll never need to address again. i mean, you probably should, but you don’t gotta. like a few weeks ago, I taught the kids all about the F word and why - even though it has incredible conversational utility - you shouldn’t say it because it’s a very very bad swear word and people will get upset.

I also taught them that the F word is, uh, “flinkle”

they are little potty mouths and it is so so so so so so funny to hear them on a flinkle rampage

[tricktster]

In my defense, I didn’t make them myself, I just met a hot dude with kids and made them my own

[maddie-2022]

That has got to be the funniest way to describe being a stepparent

[saint-ambrosef]

what "no sugar added" should mean: the natural sugars of the other ingredients like fruit are the only source of sweetness in this product

what is actually means: we added a fuckton of artificial sweeteners

[saint-ambrosef]

i see we are all angry about this

Hiiiiii so Running Close to the Wind has become my official favorite book and I am extremely hyperfixated. I have never loved a character as much as I love Avra Helvaçi, that silly little slut is the best thing that's ever happened to me.

I have two questions please: (1) what does Mistress Navya's cake look like (aside from being simply the only cake worth looking at), and (2) is Teveri's gold eye a solid gold (leafed) orb or is it painted to look like an actual eye with a gold iris?

Thank you so much!! I'm glad you like it! :)

Navya's cake is left intentionally vague to allow room for the reader to speculate ;)

Teveri's eye is gold-leafed from rim to rim, not like an actual eye. Like a badass COOL eye.

(Also fyi all my books are set in the same world and many of them are interlinked, so if you'd like an alternate perspective on the break-in at the Shipbuilder's Guild, I'd suggest A TASTE OF GOLD AND IRON next, and if you want to know why The Running Sun's crew found a boat from Kaskinen that was full of nothing but "swamp muck", A CHOIR OF LIES will give you some clues!)

[fluent-in-lesbianism]

She probably helped that girl solve her teen sexuality dilemma anyway, because if that were me and I asked an adult for advice only to find out the adult’s not only worse off than me but also the dumbest person alive, I’d accept the lesbianism just to get out of the awkward situation…
