I like to pay some mind to traditional superstitions but desperately need the events of today NOT to set the tone for the year like the least worst thing that has happened was that I broke a bowl filled with curry so. xīn nián kuài lè i guess🧧🐍

the elbow choreography in wicked is an ode to every dancer or theater kid who took a movement improv class where the instructor said, “try to use other parts of your body… your pinky, your nose, maybe your elbow…?” and so for that the elphaba/glinda dance scene is sacred

Been playing Pokémon crystal for the first time since I was like 7 and lowkey gen 2 to gen 3 was the best quality of life improvement the series ever had
On this day in 2002, 22 years ago, Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire were first released.

These games started the third generation and introduced 135 new Pokémon. It told the story of you stopping Team Aqua or Team Magma

Watching the quirky maximalist home designers decorate for Xmas is radicalizing me against this style of home decor like the color palettes are so whacko. Like girl I wanted you to have fun and enjoy color too! But the modern farmhouse girlies are taking the holidays!!!

There is peace in knowing that Ghirardelli box brownie mix is always going to be the best and letting it be the one baked good I will never want to try to make from scratch
