"I'm alive purely because the universe is shit at pest control" is such a raw-ass line that I am in awe. This is the energy I"m going to use to keep myself going right now because goddamn.

To clarify something, I am not saying this is a bad time to write classical fantasy. Just that if you want to write something that doesn't fit that mold, now might be the time.
I keep seeing more and more people saying they are sick of classical (read Western medieval) fantasy. This is the time to start exploring other eras of history and giving them a fantasy spin. Also, because there are less of these, it will be harder for an AI to generate.

Help, I am cry-laughing.

Violent flashback to the time I misread the dose and the 20mg cookie was, in fact, a 200mg cookie you were supposed to cut up, and I didn't fully feel back to normal for, like, three or four days.

Good luck.
do not take a 100mg edible. that is too much weed. i do not recommend that much weed.
i can't tell if i'm hungry or if i'm still high

“I think she’s pretty and cool and would like to get to know her better, but so far we’ve interacted only a couple of times when she’s commented on my nudes.” - a thing I said genuinely earlier today and I’ve been turning over in my head ever since.

If I had a nickel for every time I fell in love with a long-haired GBA programming transfemme, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot *BUT*

"It's not my job to educate you," I say, watching the man's sclera redden as his veins begin to pop under the weight of eldritch knowledge invading his mind like malignant tendrils from the roiling black sea behind the thin canvas of his reality, "but sometimes, it's my pleasure."

Getting a cat and naming it Garbanzo so I can poke Garbanzo's beans.

Looking for suggestions for movies, TV shows, or anime that are sci-fi or fantasy and are either explicitly trans or are very trans-coded.

People like to laugh at the fact Egyptian Mau cat is basically a car named Meow, but in English the word “wulfaz” became “Wulf” became “Wolf.”

Meaning the Egyptian Mau meme could easily be instead:

Early Germanic person “What are you?”
Early Canine: “Woof.”
Early Germanic person: “Fair enough!”

Seriously, this drives me nuts. My ADHD got so much worse after I quit smoking, and I desperately want to get on ADHD medication and have been trying for years now because I cannot keep functioning like this unless I start smoking again, and obviously I don't want to do that.
yeah tbh I’d really rather be on ADHD meds and NOT have to develop a two pack a day cigarette habit as someone who’s never smoked before just to function
I guess I can drink twelve coffees a day while chain smoking if you want me to do this in a socially acceptable manner, I just don't see how that's better for my physical or mental health than Vyvanse, y'know?

Just had a dream where I lived an entire depressing life that just closely enough resembled my own up until a key turning point that it is causing some weird dissociation. I'm posting about it because this helps ground me in the fact that was not real. I'm going back to sleep. What the fuck, brain?

If I have an account blocked, it’s because I don’t want to see posts from that account. If you repost a screenshot of that account, I am now seeing posts from that account. Do not get upset when I then stop following you so I don’t have to see posts from that account.

Since we all agree Hackers is a trans movie (because it is) I think trans people should be telling other trans people they’re elite. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

I need any eggs out there to know that, almost 4 years into transition, I have 1 key takeaway:

the transition advice of random trans shitposters is better than what my doctors have given me 99% of the time.

I have now seen Hackers and yes, there is no cisgender explanation for any of this.

So having finished my latest book, I am going on a one week hiatus from touching the computer or phone for anything more essential than opening lines of communication with friends and partners where I can dictate into the phone. I need to rest my hands and I need to give them time to properly heal,

Don't cross picket lines. Don't scab. I know times are tough. I know Starbucks will be offering stupid amounts of money for scabs because holiday season. Don't be that person.

Times are hard, but they'll only get better if workers stand together.
BREAKING: 30 more Starbucks locations are joining the strike.

Starbucks workers in 25 cities are jumping into the week-long strike.

Now @sbworkersunited.org members at 95 stores in 65 cities have walked off the job.

My first thought: "Oh, that's brutal."
My second thought, as a long term Spider-Man fan who has grown tired of trying to convince herself that set wasn't a handful of interesting cards surrounded by endless piles of forgettable chaff: "at least it's just a Secret Lair."
"I hope you suffer"
Boring, generic, forgettable

"I hope one of your favorite series gets an uninformed and uninspired Secret Lair set"
Real, tangible, terrifying

apparently, acknowledging the issue is just my own repressed nonsense was all I really needed to break through and finish the scene without needing to be in a particular headspace. So that's fun!
Of course, this is a self-imposed limitation that I just need to get over. There's nothing more inherently weird writing a sex scene while not horny than writing an action scene while not violent. It's just leftover puritanical bullshit lodged in my head making it feel like I can't.
November 20, 2025 at 8:23 PM
Me: "Okay, time to write this sex scene."
My cat, climbing into my lap: " :3 "
Me: "Baby no, this is the wrong headspace for this.
My cat, purring: " :3 "
Me: "Please, I need to be horny, not snuggly."
My cat, pressing her face against my arm and purring louder: " :3 "

Actually crying right now.
God, I hope this is true
