Was going to make a post teasing The Boyfriend, but unfortunately it has only been two(2) days and I do already genuinely miss him, which is more embarrassing than him under-seasoning his cooking 😞

Got so excited to watch Legend of Hei which has SO many things I love (great animation, cool magic, hot dudes in pretty outfits doing cool bullshit magic, etc) that I didn't realize it had something The Boyfriend would have loved to see too 😔 (cute little baby kitty cat)

Moving will make you so crazy you think "my mother packed these glasses to psychologically torment me" and believe yourself for 30 full seconds

I accidentally called the spare toothbrushes "free use" instead of "fair game" when telling The Boyfriend it was fine that he claimed one. We both sat in silence for a minute as that marinated in the air between us.

Blue Prince is fun, but trying to do a "quick run" and saying "I don't need my notebooks" is a way to INSTANTLY summon a cipher that you Need To Write In Your Notebook

Trying so hard to convince these dogs that they don't have to protect me from the cicadas bumping into the windows. Have had very little success, they are convinced my naivety is going to lead to a TPK

The Boyfriend and I made homemade pizza together (I made dough and he made vodka sauce,) and it worked so well and was so stupidly simple that I've gone mad with power. The world(of pizza) is our oyster and baby, I'm ready to shuck

No, I don't "spoil" my cat, because that implies there is anything on this earth that he hasn't already earned

(grabbing romance authors by the collar) are you going to give him a tragic backstory or are you actually going to make him work toward being a better person. because the tragic backstory to absolve him of sin seems to denote you want to accomplish that. but you're not accomplishing it yet.

I don't like that we're calling things that aren't AI generated slop now. I think it should connote a specific kind of disdain

Think there should be some sort of punishment for straight up lying in Ao3 tags. I'm thinking a "woodchips inexplicably stuck inside your socks when you're somewhere you can't take your shoes off" sort of curse

Okay so far the French name for "Murderbot" (Assasynth) is by far the best
Okay now I want to know what Murderbot is called in lots of other languages please.
Yeah! In French, its name is Assasynth! Jeez Rathi, you're hot, but listen to Bharadwaj for once.
No spoilers from the masterful adaptation of the @marthawells.com series but crazy range in this TV show from surrealist comedy to action to body horror, all wrapped in a lovely critique of capitalism

romance heroines love to see their love interest for the first time and be like "never before had I seen such a cruel, uncaring countenance" girl you are going to be gasping for it in 250 pages. as soon as he processes his trauma from the Crimean War its over for you

'Scotch-free'? 'Scott free'??
The one you want to use is 'scot-free.'
‘Scot’ is an old word for “tax.”
So, ‘scot-free’ literally means “exempt from tax.”
It’s since been broadened to mean “completely free from obligation, harm, or penalty.”

I love when characters are given power they solidly are Not Prepared to handle. Someone could probably do something crazy with this, but not this guy!! World-saving gizmo is just a stress-inducing paperweight to them 💖
