Honestly just a bit of a mess. Sometimes a writer, mostly easily distracted.

I should probably mention, in avoidance of confusion: I'm also @paxasteriae.bsky.social, but this is my art/writing/general chaos account where you get to deal with me being an AuDHD mess who makes stupid comments all the time, and the other account is my writing-focused one.

#WIPSnips: Shirt
Except I have no 'shirt' yet so it'll have to be 'hoodie' instead, and it's been an eventful walk up this foggy driveway for Gabe.

Out today! Super excited to share a new essay with you: “The Duchess Who Invented Science Fiction,” a silly and sincere ode to my beloved Margaret Cavendish, a 17th-century duchess who teaches us to 1. think speculatively and 2. wear ridiculous outfits.

But smol dog is now paddling her tiny feet on my back (I'm sitting up) and squeaking her ball against my shoulders, so that's delightful at least.
I don't know why she does it, but it makes me laugh every time.

Ugh, the parish council have put up massive, obnoxiously bright floodlights at the 'park' (it's not really a park). How obnoxious? The "I can see them half a mile away" kind of obnoxious, just so their little play projects the rugby and football club can have fun. You know the electricity bill will

I want to go to bed early, write, then zonk out with my audiobook, but every time I try to write in bed I end up with smol dog (and her favourite toy Quornie) on my knee right where my laptop goes, and she's just so cute that it's too hard to resist.
Still, I already wrote more than expected today.

Hi, I've been suspended for posting a GIF that you guys include as an option on your own platform.
I've also been suspended for replying to someone who hoped that I would die or be deported, whose account is still up.
I never received a reply to my emails.
You guys just suck at your job.

Lucifer's anxiety causes him to spill coffee on his shirt during a meeting. So, he decides to change... in front of Virgil.
While Virgil is ace, the thing that's wrecking him here is the look.

The franchisees keep using a clip from that Kardashian show, and every time I hear it, I think it's from Death Becomes Her.
And tbf, that's probably not all that far off, all things considered.
