Anyway, new book recs if you want something queer and beautiful: the Green Creek Series by TJ Klune.

I told myself I couldn't delve into a series, remembered public libraries exist, fell in love in the first quarter of book one, got the quartet for my birthday, devoured all 4 books and I NEED more people to know this series.

Also, I wanna be a werewolf so fucking bad.

y’all tj just announced an event down the street from me and the tickets are free im so excited 😭

[cforbes]

For Jily+Wolfstar epics I would recommend The Price We Pay by @possessingtheproperspirit or The Mapmakers by @dizzy--bird or We Can Be Heroes by @blitheringmcgonagall

Oh god thank you so much you kind soul!

I hate how 3 pm is so close to 2 pm so there's an illusion that there's still time left in the day to do things but in reality 3 pm is also close to 4 pm and if it's close to 4 pm you might as well just wait till tomorrow. <- can't argue against this by the way.

a day used to be 24hrs and cost $5 but nowadays a day only lasts 5hrs and they charge ya $20 just to live it. and you have to pay with an app

People starving when tons of unsold food is thrown away globally because people couldn’t afford to purchase the food, that’s violence. 

People dying and going bankrupt to pay for their healthcare, that’s violence. 

People being evicted from their homes when there are more houses than there are houseless people, that’s violence.

i like it when trans people are happy

in case you needed to hear it today:

it’s okay to use your turn signal when you’re changing lanes

it’s okay to use your turn signal when you’re taking an exit

it’s okay to use your turn signal when you plan on turning (can even be done sooner than 2 seconds before you’re about to turn)

you have a turn signal. in your vehicle. two of them in fact.

you are so brave and beautiful and smart and can do it. using your turn signal

Just thinking about how Aaron said “minyards don’t get any higher than rock bottom” and then became a neurosurgeon and his brother became an Olympic athlete

anyone have a marauders fic rec with equal jily and wolfstar? That still has that like heart wrenching, timeless feeling that some marauders era fics evoke? I just need to feel it you know

How absolutely insane would it be to spend my December rereading tlat over a decade after I read it the first time ??

[cforbes]

may this december be kind and warm to all of us. I know for some it's a tough month, but I hope we can find some comfort, even if it's in something super mundane as a bowl of warm soup or a cozy sweater that hasn't been worn in a while. enjoy the slow days and use them to rest! and if you can, please go on gloomy walks and eat something sweet ❄️🐻‍❄️🤍

i don't know what else to tell you except to be brave and to be kind. take it day by day. go outside and watch the clouds paint the sky. call a friend.

we are still here, and furious. you are still here, and that matters. you can still do and make and be something important. i promise. stay alive. it matters, and you matter. i know it is easy to succumb to anxiety and exhaustion and defeat.

communities can start with tiny ideas. google "dnd meeting near me" or whatever your interest might be. google "volunteering near me." google "support groups near me." start journalling. start a discord. start a book club.

when you close your eyes and hear hamlet, answer his prayer: it's better still to be.

not now sweetie, mommy is watching how the massive girlbossification of female characters has led to the belief that weak and vulnerable female characters are badly written characters because apparently every woman needs to be outspoken and witty and snarky and brave in order to be considered “complex” and have any value in a piece of media!!
