I need to show off how amazingly sweet and talented my girlfriend is

she decided to draw me for my birthday and when I saw it I started to cry

she included peonies because she knows they're my favorite

she added my ladybug pouch where I keep my car keys and added another ladybug flying around because she knows I love them

she drew me with a mayday parade tote because she knows they're like my favorite band

I don't deserve her she's amazing

I just ranted at my kinda gf for 2 hours about hofas

she made the mistake of asking me what it was about

I made a 45 slide PowerPoint with all the background and necessary lore and talked about like 15? books with the express purpose of talking about a single book

she's the best

just finished my 2023 fic count, total words 20.8M (conservatively) with a total of 741 fics

in 2022 I read ~26M words, in 999 fics

my spreadsheet includes: author, title, fandom, crossover, rating /10

new additions include: main ship and primary tag

rewatching Avatar: The Last Airbender.

out of obligation, i am not skipping the into, and i am reciting it every time.

making new friends is great until you forget that they don't know your Tragic Backstory™ and they accidentally ask a question that makes you mention a Trauma™ and they stare at you horrified like WHAT THE FUCK and you either just move past it or get so uncomfortable with their reaction you word vomit a long winded explanation minimizing the trauma and then the next day you text them to apologize if you accidentally made them uncomfortable and giving them permission to tell you to shut up if it happens again

randomly felt the urge to reread like one of the first fics i ever read, like over a decade ago

and all i can say is

my taste hasn't fucking changed

i don't know how to feel

people say im "smart" and "have common sense"

and sometimes im fooled into thinking it too

but then i do something and the realization that i drink *exclusively* dumb bitch juice hits me like a truck

the latest? for like three (3) years i would wear my favorite earrings, but i couldn't wear them for long because my lobe would feel really warm and swollen. i thought it was because those earrings were what made me start wearing earrings again and maybe my ears weren't used to it, or maybe they were just a little too tight

it wasn't until i was bitching about it to my coworker about it when she was like,,, babe you're allergic to the metal

i hate having random obscure knowledge that will immediately rip you out of your immersion in a piece of media

like i was reading a crossover fic where the mc's house burns down and she's presumed dead, so she leaves and goes to Gotham or whatever right? and the police were all like "two bodies were found, the mom and dad. the daughter was small enough that she would likely have been just ash" when the fire took less than a few hours to subdue. like it takes constant heat of WAY higher than a house fire to cremate a body and even then it must be done for much longer than a few hours

it's a straw-in-the-redbull kinda day

love how on my work computer we can't access Gmail but i CAN access Tumblr, reddit AND ao3

opening a post on AO3 only to see that it's written in the first person elicits a visceral reaction in me

fics on ao3 should tag whether they're first person so i can filter those out

or maybe they do and i just don't read the fucking tags

who knows

I've reached cryptid status at my dogs daycare and i love that for me

this just in: the new fall out boy single has cured my depression

that is all.

✨when your aunt threatens to sue when you tell her to fuck off ✨
