Estimated $100m second weekend for INSIDE OUT 2... Really out here breaking some records, eh? Rare for a movie, and the first time for an animated movie, should the estimates be on the low end. Very possible the actual is like $98-99m, which is still very impressive, and only an approx. 35% drop.
If it gets over $100m over the three-day, it'll sit with all-timers THE FORCE AWAKENS, ENDGAME, INFINITY WAR, BLACK PANTHER, JURASSIC WORLD, and THE AVENGERS...
Really shows that the original INSIDE OUT is beloved after its blockbuster run in 2015, and it shows that audiences quite like this movie and are back for more. Might even make a play for INCREDIBLES 2's $608m domestic total, unadjusted of course. (The actual total in today's ticket prices is around $720m, per The-Numbers.) That would make it the highest-earning animated movie domestically, but right now, Pixar's Supers hold that title. Adjusted, it will always belong to SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS.
But if anybody was gonna beat Pixar, it was gonna be Pixar. I don't see another studio getting a shot at this, maybe except cousin studio Disney Animation and their MOANA 2... Or DreamWorks if SHREK 5 really lands like a meteor in a few years from now.
Worldwide, INSIDE OUT 2 sits at $724m. Again, within two weeks of release. Already circling the original's $857m take. (Before anyone says it, the film saw a small re-release in July 2020 that pushed the take to... $858m. Know that I refer to original release grosses, lol.)
And with this movie doing so well, I see all the Chicken Little-ing... Over the wrong problem.
"We're NEVER getting an original movie from this studio again"
Okay... Let me try to debunk this.
I don't think an animation studio of this size can feasibly ONLY make sequels, because eventually... Wells run dry. Also, the people who yell this often online... Are they aware that ELIO exists and will be released next summer? Are they aware that Domee Shi, director of TURNING RED, has a new movie in the works at Pixar? (It's not ELIO, she is likely just doing story/script on that one.) Are they aware that Pixar has a movie slotted for release in late winter 2026 between ELIO and TOY STORY 5?
I'll tell you something funny... There was a fellow who insisted to me in December 2015 that Pixar was going to be done with original movies after THE GOOD DINOSAUR became the studio's first money-loser. That they'd put COCO on hold, and that would be it... LOL. This person also claimed to be a shareholder... That speaks volumes.
But no, really... You need to keep making untested or original movies in order to have things to make sequels to in the first place. And one of Pixar's recent losses was... A spin-off of TOY STORY featuring a version of one of their most recognizable, practically synonymous-with-their-name characters. Yeah, that epic movie about Lenny the binoculars!
So, please... Never making originals again? That's just a bad business plan and completely not feasible.
When originals/non-sequels don't meet the corporations' expectations (because I refuse to call SOUL, LUCA, TURNING RED and ELEMENTAL "flops" in any way, shape, or form... *Especially* the first three), the studios don't stop making them... They stop making them in a specific way.
Hence, Pete Docter - likely with Bob Iger pointing a gun at his head - saying Pixar won't make "autobiographical" movies anymore. Basically no more TURNING REDs, and more... Well, whatever the early 2026 movie is going to be. (Which is not this "Ducks" thing people keep insisting it is, as far as I know.)
The other studios do that, too. Off the top of my head... DreamWorks had a bunch of these fantasy movie in the works circa 2011. Stuff like THE GRIMM LEGACY, RUMBLEWICK, ALMA, fantastical stories with something of a darker bent to them. They were also considering adapting GIL'S ALL FRIGHT DINER... They had all these really cool movies in the works that would've redefined what a DreamWorks movie could be, post-SHREK. And then after a movie called RISE OF THE GUARDIANS lost money (even though it had good legs and became a cult hit thereafter), all of it never happened. ME AND MY SHADOW, which was in some form of production and was HOTLY anticipated by the animation community, got canceled. They proceeded to finish TURBO and MR. PEABODY & SHERMAN.
Both of which also "flopped"... I remember Jeffrey Katzenberg, when he was still running that place, saying something to the tune of: "Well those failed because we tried to aim at preteens and teenagers." Really? TURBO and PEABODY, which were overpriced to begin with, were aiming for that age group? The plan going forward was "We're going to make movies for kids and their parents." Whatever the hell that meant. Eventually, Comcast bought DreamWorks, a little over a year later. And the flightplan constantly changed after that.
Studios don't give up on movies that aren't sequels, they just re-route them. They find "reasons" for previous movie failures, and usually it's the fault of the filmmakers and the stories they chose to tell. It's never any outside circumstances, which are actually often the case with money-losing movies. The very movies that go on to be big on home video and streaming, and attain cult followings. With today's line of thinking, Walt Disney wouldn't have even gotten past PINOCCHIO's disastrous original release results.
So instead of yelling "we'll never get original movies again", I direct my energy elsewhere... And I say "Well, hopefully the future movies - both original and sequel - don't fall flat because of needless executive interference that attempts to *correct* a perceived problem." That to me is the issue, not the fantasy of Pixar completely stopping making original movies altogether.

Medical Abortions (The Abortion Pill) – Mifegymiso https://www.afro.who.int/countries/burundi
The Abortion Pill – Mifegymiso (Mifepristone/Misoprostol) was approved in Canada in July of 2015. The Abortion Pill has been successfully and safely used in Europe since 1988.
Abortion with the Abortion Pill – Mifegymiso is an alternative method for ending an early pregnancy up to 63 days. Taking the Abortion Pill DOES NOT involve a surgical procedure or sedation.
The pill also allows a woman to have an abortion in the comfort and privacy of their own home.
The way that Mifepristone works – is by blocking the hormone progesterone, a hormone naturally needed by the body to maintain an early pregnancy. It causes an early pregnancy to stop growing and detach from the uterine wall.
The Abortion Pill works naturally by ending an early pregnancy, similar to an early miscarriage. Another hormone – prostaglandin, has to be taken 2 days after Mifepristone to assure expulsion of the gestational sac.
95% of women choosing the pill require only one appointment in our clinic.
A follow-up blood test to measure whether the pill was successful or not is done at a local lab. https://www.afro.who.int/countries/burundi
Once we have received your results and assess them, we will follow up with you over the phone.
You cannot buy the abortion pill online or through a pharmacy. Only specially trained doctors in abortion care can purchase and dispense Mifegymiso (The Abortion Pill).
Our clinic doctors and nurses are specially trained in abortion care and we have superior knowledge and many years of experience.
The Abortion Pill (Mifegymiso) is a three-step process:
Step 1:
On the first day, you will take the first medication Mifepristone. Mifepristone will destabilize the lining of your uterus and end the pregnancy. You cannot reverse the effects of the medication once you take it.
Step 2:
The second day of 4 pills, Misoprostol, are taken at home, 24-48 hours later. Misoprostol tablets cause the uterus to contract and evacuate the pregnancy naturally.
Step 3:
The follow up is blood work that is done at a local lab (ex: Dynacare or Lifelabs) to measure whether the pill was successful or not.
The Abortion Pill (Mifegymiso) is up to 95-98% effective. If the Abortion Pill is not successful, an aspiration procedure (D&C) will be necessary to evacuate the pregnancy.
Medical Abortion (The Abortion Pill) – FAQ
Q: How long does it take for the process to be completed?
You will need at least 1 visit. Some women may require 2-3 visits. 95% of patients doing a medical abortion using Mifepristone will be completed in the first week. Bleeding usually starts within 30 minutes to 3-4 hours after using the Misoprostol and may be heavy for 4-8 hours. You may continue to have some bleeding or spotting for a few weeks. There is a 5% chance of a delayed reaction. This does not mean you need surgery but does make the process take longer as you may require more medication and time to pass the tissue.
Q: Can the abortion pill fail?
There is a 3-5% failure rate with this medication and if they have failed to induce an abortion it is recommended that you return to the clinic for uterine aspiration to complete the procedure as the medication is known to cause fetal demise.
First week: 95% are completed
1% will fail after 1 week and need aspiration abortion
2% will require aspiration because of heavy bleeding
2% will wait longer for the bleeding; could be up to 4 weeks
Q: Do I Qualify for Medical Abortion with the Abortion Pill (Mifegymiso)?
In order to have a medical abortion by using the Abortion Pill – Mifegymiso, you must be no more than 63 days from the first day of your last menstrual period. We will do an ultrasound in our clinic to confirm that you are early enough into pregnancy to take the Abortion Pill. We also will review your medical history to be sure you medically qualify for an abortion with the Abortion Pill, Mifegymiso. You must speak and read English well.
Advantages of the Abortion Pill (Mifegymiso)
Your significant other or family member can be with you during the entire process. Many women appreciate having loved ones when a miscarriage occurs. It can be performed up to 63 days of the first day of the last menstrual cycle. It does not require a surgical procedure.
Common Side effect of the Mifepristone
*Side effects may include – mild gastrointestinal (stomach) upset nausea; diarrhea; headache; fever and chills or occasional spotting or bleeding.
Common Side effect of Misoprostol
*Abdominal cramping, mild fevers, and mild gastrointestinal (stomach) upset.
*Bleeding usually follows the cramping and can be heavier than usual for several hours. The bleeding then tapers off to light bleeding like a period.
Side effects are typically mild and tolerable, usually lasting a couple of hours but in some cases may last up to a few days. You will be prescribed pain medication and anti-nausea medications to be taken as needed to minimize discomfort.
Q: What I should expect to see after taking the Abortion Pill (Mifepristone and Misoprostol)?
Usually when early in the pregnancy there is no visible embryo. You may experience a heavier period, with some tiny cells that you cannot see, and some tissue lining (like normal shedding as experienced with a heavier period).
Q: Do I need to miss work/school?
One of the advantages is that you can plan when taking the Abortion Pill is convenient. Once you take the second set of pills, the miscarriage usually happens within 45 min. In this case, you don’t have to miss work or school. However, there are some uncommon instances where the miscarriage is delayed and it does not begin for several hours after taking the second set of pills. In this case, where the bleeding is delayed, we recommend that you stay home until the miscarriage takes place.
Q: Do you have translators?
No. Unfortunately, we receive no government funding for counseling, medication, or translation. The patient should be fluent in English in order to receive the pill.
To make an appointment to have a Medical Abortion please fill out the following form

A pred and an observer decided to do an ancestory test, just for fun. They both forgot about it until a month later
They got an email: the results were in.
The pred got to it first, eager to see their results. It told them a lot of things, that they were at risk for heart disease, and that they were likely to be a pred. The pred definitely knew that part already. They checked the observers results too... and found something strange. They called the observer over to look.
"Oh," the observer said, looking at the webpage. The test had concluded, with 98% accuracy, that they were in fact a pred.
"Thats strange," the pred stated.
"Hmm dont worry about it, its just an online test."
"They had us send in a saliva sample"
The observer shrugged
"Are you a pred? Surely not,"
"Youre the pred, here," the observer confirmed.
"Can you eat prey?"
"I dont know," the observer snapped, "does it matter."
"Lets do our own test then, shall we?"
"I dont think thats necessary," the observer retorted, cheeks flushing lightly. "I already know. Its true. Technically, genetically, I am... a pred."
The other pred was shocked, "and you never thought to tell me?"
"It was never relevant," the observer shrugged, "Im not active, im completely fine not... doing pred stuff."
"Have you ever eaten a prey?" The pred asked
"....No."
The pred grinned
"No." The observer said again, "dont even think about it. Im not the one that consumes, thats your job."
"Please? Itll be fun, you might even like it."
They argued the point for a while and went no where. Eventually the observer conceded.
"Maybe one day." The observer responded, after a pause. The pred seemed satisfied with that.
---
A week passed. The observer returned to their house to see the pred had brought something in.
"Oh youve got another prey? And so soon? You ate yesterday."
The pred patted their still bloated stomach, in rememberance. "No, this one isnt for me."
The observer frowned.
The pred smiled, and whispered, blocking the preys ears, "its for you"
The observer grimaced. " i dont think i want it. You eat it."
"Awe, please? For me. After all, Ive eaten so many prey for you, its the least you can do"
The observer sighed. "I will do it once, for your curiosity."
The observer grumbled about how they were going to feel sick.
"Now youve watched me do this a hundred times before, so im sure you can figure it out." The pred coached.
The observer grimaced, again, looking down at their prey (strange as it was to think), with apprehension, or even disgust.
"Are you hungry?" The pred asked
"Not at all"
And with that the observer put the prey in their mouth. The pred watched as they gulped it down with suprising proficiency, for their first time.
"Good, now all you have to do is sit down and digest."
"digest-?! - buuorp"
the observer cleared their throat, "ahem, excuse me."
The pred chuckled. "Listen to that, youve already started. And besides, I always digest my prey so its only fair. "
"you didnt say that earlier, that wasnt part of the deal..." the observer groaned.
"What, you thought you could just spit them back up afterwards? Thats hardly a challenge at all. I want to see you break down your prey, i want to see you tomorrow, once your belly softens up. I want to see if you gain any weight."
The observer grumbled about how they were going to call off work tomorrow
The observer stood up, the pred tried to stop them, but they did manage to stay on their feet.
They went to the kitchen, letting their belly sway as they went, paying it no mind. It was almost as if they were ignoring their gut entirely, letting it hang there, as the prey struggled, in the process of being digested..
The observer made a cup of tea for themselves and the pred, and sat down at the kitchen table to drink it. They had to sit a little awkwardly in order to fit.
The pred sat down with them
"You know, you can sit somewhere more comfortable" the pred said
"No need."
"Are you determined to not let the prey bother you at all?"
"B-brouurp." The observer stifled a belch. "Its defnitely affecting me."
"Are you getting tired at all? A meal can do that"
"Hm, not really."
The preds mouth thinned. The observer wasnt making this very fun.
"How does it feel, being a pred?"
The observer thought for a moment, but before they could respond, The prey in their tummy gave a hard kick, which jolted the table, and caused the tea to spill. The pred cursed, and cleaned it up quickly.
The observer seemed to have a pained look on their face. The pred decided enough was enough, the observer needed to be laid down, away from any hard objecte. The observer objected half heartedly.
With a grunt, the pred picked up the observer, carrying them away to the bedroom.
"Youre really heavy" the pred huffed
"I wonder why" the observer said through gritted teeth
The pred dropped them on the bed, and landed heavily beside them.
The observer rubbed the preds much smaller belly, for comfort, or a sense of normalcy. They forbid the pred from touching their own, wriggling, thrashing, prey filled belly. Complaining that it felt weird when the pred touched it. Too sensitive, too full.
The pred told the observer not to worry, by tomorrow their stomach would be much more managable. The observer retorted that they knew this, obviously.
The observer kneaded on the preds soft belly like a stress toy, while their own gut groaned and churned violently, getting all into digesting its very first prey. Eventually, they fell into a fitful sleep, the silhouette of their prey twitching under their skin.
---
The next day, the pred left the observer early in the morning, as they had work. When they returned in the afternoon, the observer was up and about.
The pred admired the observer, they were wearing one of their old t shirts, which was now fitting very snugly, with the ample curve of their tummy stretching the fabric.
"Looks like youve done some good work today."
The observer glared at them, hands on hips, belly protruding, and gurgling noisily.
"Actually, I havent been able to do any work today, thanks to... you."
"Me?" The pred asked innocently. The observer muttered something, whatever it was, it sounded perturbed.
The pred slinked up to them, hiding a small grin.
"Can i touch your belly now? Now that your not so sensitive"
The observer huffed, "i guess so."
the pred pushed their hand into the observers plush middle, causing it to respond with a satisfied gurgle.
They were a predator, that much was certain. This was, after all, a quintessential example of a predators belly, post digestion. Nice and big, and round, and if the pred dug their fingers in a little deeper, they could feel the shape of a bone or two, poking around in there.
"Youve done a really good job," the pred said. They rubbed over the observers belly gently, "congratulations on your first prey."
"First and only," the observer responded gruffly. They stretched, and their belly poked out from under their t shirt.
"I guess we know for sure now, though," they say, patting their full stomach conclusively. "You wont have to ask me again."
"haha, yeah. Yeah."
Role reversal - on an observer
Make the observer eat someone
Bonus points if they are a first time pred. Theyve watched their partner eat countless prey, but theyve never known how it felt, until now

A late fic for day 3 of dp side hoes week!
Character: Wes Theme: Denial

Wes held his breath, watching the upload bar slowly increase.

Anxious energy buzzed in his veins, but he was still. Frozen. As if a single muscle twitch would bring this all crashing down.

It wouldn’t have been the first time his plans were thwarted at the last minute. Just last week he had been on his way home, camera in hand, when suddenly he felt the familiar chill of intangibility pass over him and his camera swiped from his clutches. He looked up to see Phantom, in all his egotistical glory, reach inside the camera, grab the memory card, and melt it in his palms.
Uploading 96%
But with each failure, months of countless iterations of the same plan, he had grown. He had learned. He had become more cunning, more discrete.
It really was only a matter of time before this day would come.

He was so close.
So close.

His mouth was a dessert. His hands clutched the edge of his desk, shaking. He couldn’t remember when the last time he blinked was, but it didn’t matter, nothing else mattered right now except how close he was he was so close.
Uploading 99%
So close.
Finally.
After all this time.
It was happening.
Upload complete
A breath escaped his lips. And then another. And another. Until the breaths quickened, and sound followed. A laugh. A breathy, weightless laugh.
He leaned back in his chair, allowing hilarity to overtake his body. This was bliss, it was pure bliss.
Wes stretched his arms out and stared up at the ceiling.
He had won.
After months of trying, he finally caught the perfect video showcasing the tail end of Phantom’s fight today with the infamous mecha ghost Skulker. Phantom sucked the ghost into his ghost thermos, flew behind a tree, and glanced around suspiciously for a brief moment before triggering his transformation sequence. Then, like icing on the cake, Foley and Manson appeared and had a conversation with Danny Fenton about the fight that Danny Phantom had just gone through. Fenton displayed the ecto-thermos and uttered the perfect lines about needing to “get him back to the Ghost Zone,” before turning his hand and the thermos intangible and shoving the object into his backpack.
The video was, by all accounts, perfect. Simply perfect. It was the exact undeniable proof that Wes had spent months trying to capture.
Now it was online for the world to see.
All he had to do now was share the link to the popular Phantom fan forum, sit back, and watch the internet work its magic.
If Wes was right, Phantom would be trending in an hour. News sites would be covering him by tonight. By tomorrow, everyone would know who—or what—Fenton really was.
A liar. An abomination. A danger to society.
All because of Wes.
He was victorious.
This was—
---
—wrong.
Wes pressed a hand against the glass, his eyes wide as he watched as red streaked against the green splatters dotting the panel.
This was all wrong.
“Come to gloat?” an icy voice sounded from beyond the glass wall.
“I never wanted this,” Wes whispered. He couldn’t take his eyes off the green stains on the glass, on the wall, on the floor. It popped against the otherwise barren room, painting the bleached scene with a terrifying story.
“Is that supposed to make me feel better?” The voice coughed, and then groaned. “You did this to me, Wes. This is your fault.”
“I didn’t mean—”
“Shut up.”
Wes’s eyes snapped over to the figure beyond the glass. It was sallow, decrepit. Nothing more than a bony mess of black, white, and green in a torn jumpsuit.
And it finally connected in Wes’s brain where he’d seen Phantom’s uniform before. It looked exactly like the suits worn in ecto-science labs.
Because when he saw the ghost now, Phantom looked right at home. He looked like he was made to be a lab rat.
And that made Wes nauseous.
“I didn’t ask to be this way. I didn’t want to be—to be a freak.” Phantom’s head lolled back against the wall. A trickle of ectoplasm dripped from his chin, peppering the floor with even more green, but he made no move to clean his face.
Wes’s hand fell to his side. “I’m sorry.”
“I don’t care.”
“I’m gonna get you out of here.” His voice didn’t sound too convincing. It sounded pathetic, weak.
Phantom snorted, but otherwise didn’t respond.
“I will,” Wes reiterated.
“Whatever you say.”
His pulse quickened, and before he could stop himself he choked out, “I just need to know. I need to know. What—what are you?”
Phantom’s eyes narrowed, snapping onto Wes.
Wes could have forgotten how to breathe. “Please, I need to know. Are you dead?”
“No.”
Wes’s blood ran cold.
“As in no, you don’t get to know what I am.” Phantom said. “You don’t get that privilege. Do you understand, Weston? You posted that video knowing that everyone, everyone, would see it, including the federal organization established to capture me. You knew deep down that this was going to happen. You just didn’t care because the only thing that mattered was that you were right and everyone else was just in too deep denial to see it, am I right?”
It was so hard to breathe.
Phantom leaned forward, his head drooping down to his chest. “You took away everything. I have nothing left. So now you can just sit there for the rest of your life and think about the fact that you have no idea if the person who you condemned to a lifetime of imprisonment was human, or ghost, or something in between.”
“I’m sorry.”
“That’s too bad.”
“I’m trying to do the right thing, you know,” Wes said, frustration seeping into his tone. “I just threw away my life too by doing this. I can’t exactly go home either.”
“Oh what, am I supposed to thank you now? For ruining my life but then coming back to ‘save’ me?” Phantom snapped. “Shut the fuck up.”
He could have left. He could have just turned around and left Phantom to rot in this compound for the rest of his afterlife.
But no, he’d come so far. And as today, he was officially a criminal.
He could never go home now. He couldn’t waste this trip.
And besides, he knew that he needed Phantom’s help in escaping the compound. This plan was a one way trip, put together after months of planning. Months of working with one of the most notorious hackers Wes knew online.
This was the best plan he had. But it wasn’t foolproof.
“I can get you in,” the hacker said from the other side of the screen. “After that? You’re on your own.”
Wes nodded. “That’s all I need.”
Silas was silent for a moment. “You know, when you reached out to me on Reddit, I thought you were delusional at first. I thought that this plan would never work, that you were out of your mind. But I figured I’d entertain you for a minute. At least hear you out before I wrote you off completely.”
“And I’m grateful.”
“But now, Wes? Now I just think you have a death wish.”
“You don’t understand,” Wes said bitterly. “This is my fault. I need to get Phantom out.”
“You’ll kill yourself before you make it out of there.”
“Please, just tell me what I need to know.”
There was a fingerprint scanner mounted on the wall next to the glass pane. Wes approached it cautiously, trying to ignore Phantom’s eyes that tracked his every move, and stopped before the wall.
“The hacker I’ve been working with programmed my thumb into this lock,” Wes said. “I’ll unlock it, then we run. Once we clear the door, you phase us out of here. Okay?”
Phantom didn’t say anything, but Wes didn’t need him to. There was no alternative plan, no other way to make it out of here intact. It was either this, or they both die.
Wes lifted his trembling hand, pressing his thumb to the scanner. The scanner came to life, lighting up green as it read his finger print.
For a moment, nothing happened. Deafening silence permeated the room, the mounting pressure slowly suffocating Wes’s lungs. Each millisecond that the scanner spent on his thumb felt like an eternity.
And then, just when he felt like he was about to collapse, the scanner turned red.
Time stopped. Wes’s eyes widened, and he drew in a short, shuddering breath.
No.
The blaring started.
NO!
The room filled with red light and high-pitched wailing. Wes’s legs cemented to the ground, and all he could do was turn his head and watch in horror as Phantom’s terrified eyes rolled to the back of his head before the ghost collapsed on the ground.
This wasn’t happening. This couldn’t have been real.
How did their plan fail?
Wes heard the door open, and the sounds of footsteps filled surrounded him. He couldn’t turn around, he couldn’t watch as his worst fears unfolded in front of him.
“So you were the rogue fingerprint,” a deep voice from behind him said. “You know, we thought it was odd when all of the sudden one day, a twenty seventh fingerprint suddenly was logged into the scanner seemingly overnight.”
No…
“Teenager, huh? Always think you’re invincible.”
Wes opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
His body was numb. He couldn’t feel his limbs. His brain was screaming at him to run, get out of here, but he couldn’t move. He was frozen, not because of anything the government had done to him.
No. It was fear.
“Too bad for you, you’re not as invincible as you think you are.”

Preface: Confessions of a Bottom-Feeder
I’ve decided to throw my hat in the yearly playlist ring, just at about the time everyone is again questioning whether Spotify’s whole deal is too gross to continue abiding. I’ve decided: yeah, probably too gross, but not enough to get me off the platform yet, for reasons I’ll get into below.
I am standing on the shoulders of giant playlists, so this is the part where I link to projects by Brad Shoup and Jonathan Bogart and Centuries of Sound to name only a few. (If you click through those folks' links, you’ll find even more people doing this work.)
I'm not much of a researcher per se. My process is connected to a highly intuitive slog that I call Spotifreeganism, which I’ll describe below. That process makes it much less complete and subject to a lot of weird omissions -- but also inclusions of stuff that maybe even the artists don’t remember putting out.
But I do enjoy putting songs together onto shiny discs. This is a collection of 25 80-minute CD-R mixes that can actually be burned to one CD each. There are good clues as to whether you’ll actually want to listen to the disc, so you can skip a whole mix if you want. That mix CD format is how I’ve almost always engaged with music, and it hits a sweet spot between manageable listening and enough space for some archival curios or personal favorites. It’s exactly the amount of time you need to create a snapshot of an idea, a genre, or a vibe.
Because these are just snapshots, the goal isn’t completism. I play fast and loose with eligibility (Harvey Danger and Shania Twain put out albums in 1997 that had no impact anywhere until 1998, but Eiffel 65’s ‘98 album had no impact until 1999.) Everyone has a completism mea culpa, but I really mean it -- my research beforehand is minimal and I actively try not to include songs I genuinely don’t want to listen to. I’m happy to cancel people whose music I would otherwise include at some point in the past (Marilyn Manson, R. Kelly, and Kid Rock are all out).
I only do “research” when I’m done. I go through the lists and do some google hunting and pecking. I’ll often look up something I assumed was obscure and be astonished to learn it was a UK #1 (The Tamperer and Maya!) or something. Every song I put on the mix is something I actually want to listen to, and I intentionally left stuff off that I can’t stomach anymore (sorry Fastball), didn’t fit on a specific mix due to the 80-minute time limit (sorry Soulwax), or seems like it tips the balance too far to the “archive” column and not to the “mix” column -- 6’s that I can’t pretend are 7’s.
So, Spotifreeganism. I’ve always been a music economy bottom-feeder. In the record shop ecosystem I’m the guy hoovering up dollar bin CDs. Most of my box sets have been acquired as big chains go out of business. I recently came into possession of a giant gray tub full of CDs from 1988-2008 and gleefully scavenged every last find from it. It’s the way I prefer to take in music anyway -- sifting huge, indiscriminate piles of shit through the industrial sieve of my brain. It’s probably not a great look ethical consumption-wise; I find it hard not to think of music purchasing as a form of charitable giving, and I mostly give to people I actually know.
For the last four years, my music listening to current music has followed this process: I pull in curated lists of Spotify New Music Fridays (and a few other updated-weekly playlists by genre) from about 60 different countries, regions, and genres. Spotify’s interface eliminates most duplicates as I combine them into one list, taking something like 7,000 total tracks and whittling them down to 1,500 each week. I listen to those tracks for as little as 5 seonds and as long as two minutes while I do the dishes, putz around online at night, or fold the laundry. It’s about 3 hours of listening a week, spread out in increments in which I can multitask. If I find something that rings a bell, whether in five seconds or two minutes (and I don’t overthink it), I put it on a separate list that I revisit once a month, cutting that down to about 90 minutes of music per month.
I’ve discovered that this is what my ears were built for -- taking in enormous streams of musical data and churning out a listenable mix of the stuff I like. This is always how I’ve listened, whether I was on torrent sites as a college student or buying old teen pop CDs for the cost of shipping when it was wildly unfashionable (some of us kept our CD collections through the mid-aughts!). But Spotify has centralized the process and dramatically increased the amount of information I can take in from places I wouldn’t think to look. The vast majority of music that gets heralded in critical conversations falls through the cracks this way. But my old habits also haven’t changed: I spend a lot of time reading about music on the internet. I just listen to less of it, until it comes more urgently to my attention. So over the course of the year I not only have a working knowledge of what happened according to most music critic types, but also a huge list of music that very few people have even mentioned in the places I tend to hang out.
So I wondered if I could apply this workflow to a year and come up with a kind of shadow playlist of 1998 songs that very few people have ever heard of. This initial idea fell by the wayside almost immediately, as even a quick glance at top songs of the year led to maybe 50 songs I genuinely love and would want to include. But I also didn’t want to do a ton of leg-work, just wanted lots of music to wash over me. I am incredibly absent-minded and formal research practices activate deep resistance in my “attentional-issues” brain. Because I can’t direct my hyperfocus to the task, I am almost useless for any kind of rigorous historiography. But I have really good ears, and I pick stuff out really quickly.
The question was how to replicate the data stream itself without having to do the research. The answer was to use various filters in the Discogs library of music to create a list of about 13,000 albums originally released in 1998. (I only made it through 10,000 before I got a weird error message.) Only 1 in 5 of those albums is available on Spotify, and I would guess that for about three quarters, at least one song is available on YouTube. I always checked Spotify but only followed up with YouTube if my interest was piqued, which got less common the longer I slogged through the list. (There’s still a bonus disc of non-Spotify tracks.)
I started with a baseline list of album releases culled from Acclaimed, Billboard, and a couple of critics I follow (especially Fast n Bulbous and Chuck Eddy’s recent “150 Albums” lists). As I went through the lists, I tried to pull at least one song from each available album into the master list of possible tracks.
And then I dove in to the Discogs list. I picked albums out of the master list in a way that is utterly arbitrary, copying and pasting titles into Spotify if the title struck my fancy, if the picture was interesting, if the picture was particularly uninteresting, if I recognized the record label, or if I want to hear more from the country of origin. If it was in Cyrillic, Japanese, Greek, Arabic, or Turkish script, I’d see if it was on Spotify. I tried to focus on a few of my blind spots -- especially metal, of which after several attempts I included just about 0% across 25 mixes (I really can’t stand to listen to almost any of it, though I had much more luck when I did a lighter version of this process for 1987 a few months ago).
I would guess that I ended up actually testing 1 in 3 of 10,000 albums, of which maybe 1 in 3 of those hits an available album. That means I “engaged with” somewhere between a thousand and two thousand albums, almost certainly less than a percentage point of music actually released in 1998. When I find something in Spotify, I see if there was a “hit” according to Spotify’s listen count, which usually means something was popular in its particular region, or that it was chosen for a Spotify playlist at some point and cumulative advantage did its thing. I play that track for 5 seconds, and if I recoil, I try two or three other tracks until I’m satisfied that something can go on the long list. If there’s no obvious standout, I start from track one and skip around.
For 1998, I ended up with a total of 1,200 songs I figured I might put on a list. I ended up with 535 songs across 25 80-minute CD-Rs. (Brad Shoup describes his first 500+ track playlists as charmingly tiny at this point, so I hope that someday he will just throw everything I found into his playlist grinder and triple the song count.) To make the mixes, I formed rough ideas around moods, genres, and a few higher-concept ideas to get a rough idea of what the mix might be – I have mixes called “vibes” and “unstoppable” and “indee” and “booty” – and I carved away everything that wasn’t an elephant.
I don’t know how much interest this whole process is to anyone, but I do think identifying my own corner in the playlist environment has been useful in a self-reflective sort of way. I’m the guy who’s going to have a handful of songs you’ve never heard of that you love, and they won’t be the same handful anyone else will love, and if you ask me I won’t be able to tell you almost anything about them, except that they are good and deserve to be on a mix about 1998, and probably defined someone’s 1998. And you’ll know almost instantly whether a mix will interest you, so you can skip by 20’s, which I think is a plus, since you probably have lots of important things to do with your time.
I'll share each mix with a few words of explanation separately over the course of the next couple of weeks. You can follow the #98mixes tag to see them as they get posted here.

Ash and Dust Part 7- Opportunities
18+ Dabi x fem!reader
Summary: You first meet Dabi on the worst night of your life after unwittingly walking into the very bar the League of Villains made infamous. That should probably be the end of the story. You stumble on the remnants of one of the most infamous terrorist groups in the history of Japan, get viciously murdered or call the cops and get them arrested, the end. Except that’s not the end of the story. It’s only the beginning.
Masterlist Help Lulu (Kofi)
Waking up the morning after reclaiming your bedroom (at least in part) is jarring for two reasons.
The first is that you’re waking up next to Dabi.
For some reason you thought he might wake up before you, even though he’s pretty routinely demonstrated that he’s not an early riser. Perhaps you expected the knowledge that he was sleeping in the same bed as you to perturb him enough to get him up early. Instead your eyelashes had fluttered open to find him still deeply asleep with his face only a few inches from yours.
You fully intended on simply rolling over to either fall back asleep or get on with your day but you’d found yourself enthralled with his sleeping face instead. You know Dabi’s smirks, sneers, and scowls like the back of your hand after a little over a month of living with him. His resting face, however, is entirely foreign to you. You’ve never had a moment alone with him where he wasn’t antagonizing you and it’s odd to see him so peaceful. Your eyes trace over his face, taking in the extent of the scarring on his jaw and beneath his eyes, but also appreciating the unmarred expanses of skin as well. It strikes you that Dabi is pretty. It shouldn’t be surprising considering what you’ve seen of the youngest Todoroki in the press but even still. In another world where he’d never become the wanted criminal he is today, you wonder if he’d be a heartbreaker or a sweet, gentle type. Would he be as quiet and polite as his brother seems to be or would he still get a thrill from bantering with someone who isn’t afraid to banter right back? Would he be in the tabloids with a different girl every week or settle down early with his high school sweetheart? You’re fascinated by the idea of what the scarred man before you would be without the tragedy and the trauma. You might’ve sat there just taking him in until he woke up if not for the second reason waking up that morning was so jarring.
Your phone has been pinging literally non-stop.
You’ve never resented your notification sound more as its shrill tone continues to echo in your room, putting the fragile peace at risk. Even before you found yourself as alone as you are now your phone was never this busy. As much as you try to ignore it and wait for the tidal wave of what you assume are spam notifications to end, the sound finally drives you to turn over and grab it. Your eyes widen as you take in the sheer amount of Twitter notifications you have. As you unlock your phone and navigate over to the app your mentions are literally flooded with Deku fans screaming about your talent and how lucky you are. It’s a confusing litany of fangirling that you try to weed through until you get to one mention in particular that makes your breath catch in your throat.
You got a mention from the rising hero himself.
Holy shit.
You’ve never clicked a tweet so quickly in your entire life. Not only are you stunned to find he’s seen and loved your work but he also mentions wanting to talk if you’re interested. Sure enough, when you navigate over to the messages section of the app, a feature you’ve never bothered to use, you notice a message request from Midoriya ‘Deku’ Izuku waiting for you. It takes everything in you not to scream as you read the message there over and over before finally hopping out of bed and moving to the kitchen to call the number he’d left you. It’s a little endearing that he’d been so quick to hand out his number to a complete stranger on the internet but you also can’t help but wonder how someone so naive could be the same man drawing headlines over his heroics and combat skill. You’re not exactly a Deku fangirl but it’s still wild to be dialing a celebrity’s number as you punch in the numbers and then wait for it to ring.
On literally the second ring the phone is answered. “Pro Hero Deku at your service! Who’s calling?” the young man answers chirpily. “Uhh, this is (y/l/n)? You messaged me on twitter?” “Oh! Right! Yes! Hello! One second!”
You can hear Deku excusing himself from whatever room he’s in, a disgruntled voice mumbling something you can’t hear, causing Deku to reply with a hushed “Sorry Kacchan! I’ll be right back!” before there’s more shuffling and finally the sound of a heavy door closing.
“Ok I’m back! Thanks for reaching out to me so quickly!” he finally says now that he’s, apparently, in a better place to talk.
“Yea, of course I guess I’m just shocked you liked my art so much and really appreciate you drawing so much attention to it,” you explain, feeling short of breath at how surreal the situation is.
“Of course! You’re really talented! Your work deserves to get attention!”
“Thank you but, uh, why exactly did you want me to call you?”
“Right! It’s about your artwork.”
“Ok?”
“I want to sell it!”
“What?”
“Wait well no not sell it. Or not sell that particular piece although it is a nice piece and if you wanted to theoretically you could probably sell it although I guess it’s available for free online already so maybe people wouldn’t want to pay for it. Although it’s a painting right? And people buy or pay to go see paintings you can see online all the time so maybe it wouldn’t be too bad but if it’s for your own enjoyment you may not want to give it up which would be totally understandable and also how would that work logistically? If the painting is rather large it may be unwieldy to try and ship it to whoever purchases it, in which case would you have to meet up to try and give it to them by hand? But then that necessitates meeting up with a complete stranger on the internet and what if the person who buys it doesn’t live near you or, since it is the internet, doesn’t even live in Japan? Then you have to contend with international shipping and-”
“Uhh, Deku?” you ask cautiously, barely able to process the mumbling of the young man on the phone.
“Ah! Sorry! I can kinda end up on tangents sometimes... What I mean to say is that I’m not trying to sell the painting you posted or anything but I think you’re really talented as an artist and one of my friends is looking for someone to design a new merch collection.”
One of his friends? Your mind instantly starts running through his impressive list of ex classmates. Your first thought is Dynamight and immediately you shudder at the idea. He may be years younger than you but the aggressive pro hero still scares the shit out of you. Uravity could be an interesting hero to work with although you’re not quite sure you vibe with her aesthetic. Or maybe he’s talking about the new Ingenium?
“You’re real fucking loud in the mornings, you know that Doll?” Dabi asks with a groan as he comes walking into the room with a stretch.
You hurry to shush him, not wanting to lose the opportunity being presented to you, which earns you a curious look. Before you can react Dabi is snatching your phone out of your hand and putting it on speaker. You don’t dare protest verbally and risk alerting Deku of the situation so you have to settle for glaring at Dabi as he smirks at you.
“Yea so, anyway, Shouto really needs new merch but wanted something a little more sophisticated on the designs and I feel like you’d be perfect for that you know? Making all his stuff mini works of art. So what do you say?” Deku asks, his voice still brimming with that same enthusiasm while your blood runs cold. You’re genuinely scared to look up at Dabi’s face to see what he thinks about the idea of you working with his little brother. You hold your breath, Deku’s chipper voice going nervous as he asks “Hello? You still there?”
To your immense surprise, when you finally have the courage to bring your eyes up to meet Dabi’s, he’s got an almost feral grin. “You better take the fucking job,” he hisses delightedly, sending a chill down your spine as you stutter out a response to Deku, your eyes never leaving Dabi’s.
“Yea, sorry just processing. I’d, uh, I’d be happy to help out.”
“Great! I’ll pass your number on to Shouto and you two can meet up and figure out details!”
“Ok.”
“Cool, thanks (y/l/n)! Hopefully I’ll see you around!”
You hum noncommittally before hanging up the phone, still waiting for the other shoe to drop as you practically watch the gears turning in Dabi’s head.
“You’re…. Not mad I’m going to be working with your brother?” you ask cautiously.
“Oh no, I’m fucking delighted Doll. You know why?”
“Why?”
“Because you’re gonna help me have a little fun.”
A/N: We are finally starting to get to the meat of the story omg. I’m sorry this fic has been so slow going, especially compared to my others, but if you stick with I’m pretty sure it’ll be worth it. I appreciate each and every one of y’all that’s been reading this fic because main motivation to write it has been hard

Blah
I just realized one of my top choice accelerated nursing schools requires all prerequisites completed before applying. All other schools are okay as long s they are completed before starting. I’m not sure how I missed this difference. There’s no way I can finish Chemistry in the next few weeks so I guess that’s off my list. I’m annoyed at myself for not noticing. All of the schools require different prerequisites - which makes things difficult and seems illogical. Either I need Chemistry to be a nurse or I don’t?? Why does one school requires General Psychology and one requires Lifespan/Developmental Psych??
Fingers crossed, eventually it will all work itself out. I don’t have a back-up plan. The thought of having to look for something in my former field makes me sick to my stomach. Plus, I’m really excited about the idea of nursing now that I’ve started down the path. I’m loving stats class right now. It’s so, so, so much easier than the lab science classes I had to take last semester.
Baby boy has charmed everyone at daycare, as I knew he would. I kept him home with me today because I wanted some extra time with him and unlike the girls I can get some work done while he is around. The daycare ladies were so sad when I said he wasn’t going to come in until later. He’s is balding and no man has ever made a receding hairline look better.
I starting an online “parenting membership” to try to get back to the parenting basics. I’ve been yelling at my girls more then I would like and want to get that under control. They’ve also been acting out more than ever before but yelling back certainly doesn’t help. Some of the stuff is a little much for my taste but overall I like the style of the leader and I need the reminders.
Both my in-laws have vaccine appointments for the next couple of weeks. Now if my home state would get their act together so my parents could sign-up. My 98 year old Grandma’s nursing home has pushed back their dates twice already.
In the most exciting thing to happen to me in weeks the internet went out in our area for two hours today. This meant neither my husband or I could do any work. I convinced him we should both clean. The house is cleaner than its been in forever and it makes me truly happy.
I’m off to watch This is Us. Good chance to cry.

[CN] 100 Days - Shaw (Day 51 - 100)
🍒 Warning: This post contains detailed spoilers for e-mails which have not been released in English servers! 🍒
What’s the 100 Days Companionship Event?
Day 1 - 3: here
Day 4 - 30: here
Day 31 - 50: here
Day 51
Learnt a new card magic trick and will leave you wide-eyed today. You coming?
Day 52
Instead of thinking about raising koi to change your fortune, why not buy a can of cola. As compared to nothing, at least my mood will be good.
Day 53
I have two tickets for an e-sports competition. It’s at 8pm. We’ll meet at the entrance of your place.
Day 54
The competition yesterday was pretty bad. I may as well have participated myself. Let’s not go for today’s competition. We’ll level up at home.
Day 55
Sign in. Come to think of it, you’re pretty amazing - you can come up with so many topics to talk about every day.
Day 56
I heard that you have plans to try jigsaw puzzles. I’ve sent you one with 30,000 pieces - it’s completely white. No need to thank me, and I wish you an early completion.
Day 57
The professor keeps complaining that his snacks go missing. Placing the snacks in a laboratory where people walk to and fro - he deserves it. Don’t you agree?
Day 58
I found the snacks thief - it’s a big fat crow. Whoa, it’s awfully sly.
Day 59
Jensen has been working hard on practising his rap. Today, I even heard a flow in his snoring, and recorded it. Want to hear?
Day 60
It’s the day of Frost’s Descent. Of course you have to eat marbled beef with me.
[Trivia] 霜降 (“shuang jiang”) translates to “Frost’s Descent”, which refers to the last solar term of autumn. Shaw’s use of “marbled beef” is a play on words because in Chinese, “marbled beef” is “霜降肥牛”!
Day 61
Even three-year-old children know that they have to wear more clothes when it’s cold. Looks like you’re only one-year-old.
Day 62
There’s a small stall on Westmoon Street selling Double Ninth cake. It’s tastier than those in other places. Come out quickly, I’ll take you to taste the delicacy.
Day 63
Head to the hotpot shop first. The Old Man wants me to meet some of his old colleagues. How troublesome. Remember to order a plate of tripe for me.
Day 64
You want to compete to see who can replicate the most number of animal sounds tomorrow? You’ll definitely lose.
Day 65
Fine, I lost… But why do you know how to imitate the sound of a hippopotamus?!
Day 66
Are you really angry today? In that case, if I wear a pompom hat next time, I’ll let you tie a knot too.
Day 67
That song you shared with me before - its orchestral arrangement is still passable, but its effects will be ten times better with the bass. I’ll record a section for you later.
Day 68 (Halloween)
Title: Costumes
This is what you called an incredibly amazing costume? Wait at home. I’ll show you what’s truly “incredibly amazing”.
Day 69
A performance without an audience is pretty fun too. It’d have been even better if someone were around to record it. I think you’re pretty suited for it.
Day 70
Today’s challenge: To sneak away under the eyes of the professor.
Day 71
I signed in late today, but you can’t blame me for oversleeping. It’s all because the sun didn’t appear and head to work today.
Day 72
Unlocked a new breakfast combo. Even though I don’t see a need for it, I can recommend it to you.
Day 73
There’s a bad ending to that drama you haven’t finished watching, so I’m giving you a heads-up. I wasn’t wrong when I said fairy tales weren’t believable, was I?
Day 74
Feels like you’ve been busy for several days. Want to sneak out to relax for a while?
Day 75
Realised that my phone battery is running low, and can’t slack off and send you messages anymore. How unlucky.
Day 76
I’ve been busy preparing for exams recently, but you can still send me messages at night as usual. At most, I’ll reply you the next day
Day 77
There’s a sports meet in school next week, and I’ve been dragged in to fill the numbers. Come watch if you have time.
Day 78
Let’s compete in a round of “flash sale” tonight. The loser will buy whatever’s in the other person’s shopping cart.
[Note] Shaw is talking about 秒杀 (“miao sha”), which directly translates to “seconds kill”. It’s a term used in online shopping where once popular items are placed on the Internet, dozens of them are immediately snatched up, sometimes in a single second.
Day 79 (Single’s Day)
The rain in November is pretty cold. I’ve decided to shower and sleep early today, so don’t disturb me after 12am.
Day 80
I can brush off how you added ginger ale to Cola the last time. But this time, what do you think you’re doing by adding indigo woad root?
[Note] Indigo woad root, also known as the root of Isatis tinctoria (板蓝根 - “ban lan gen”)is a traditional Chinese herb used for flu relief
Day 81
Horror techniques like inserting a jump scare in a comedic clip is too elementary. Next time, please come up with something new.
Day 82
Are you awake? Head out once you’ve signed in, or what I taught you about the skateboard will be completely forgotten.
Day 83
The graffiti wall I brought you to the last time has been torn down. I found a new unfinished building, and you can practice here.
Day 84
No one can be certain of the future. I can’t be bothered to think about it either. As long as you run in the direction you want to go, it’s enough.
Day 85
This semester’s elective course is almost over. There are some assignments I haven’t finished. If there’s anything, come to the library to find me.
Day 86
I don’t feel like writing anymore, and am prepared to head out for a stroll tomorrow. Give me two recommended locations from your collection of reviews.
Day 87
One principle applies to both ice-skating and skateboarding - you won’t learn it if you don’t fall a few times. In the worst case, I’ll catch you when you fall.
Day 88
Watched as someone failed to stick a straw in after three tries, and didn’t allow me to laugh out loud.
Day 89
That hook you hummed today was a little familiar. Did you watch the live performance of that very popular underground band recently?
Day 90
Call me along the next time you go to a Live. Relax, I’m on pretty good terms with the bassist from that band. I’m not going there for a surprise brawl.
Day 91
The Old Man’s a little sick, so I’m bringing him medicine. Since it’s along the way, I’ll bring the umbrella you left at my place to you.
Day 92
Didn’t expect you to grasp the move I taught you today so quickly. I’ll award you with a can of Cola.
Day 93
The punishment for today’s game are biscuits filled with mustard, and the person who loses will eat them. Do you have the guts?
Day 94
Have I been infected with your bad luck recently? Even the things I get in blind boxes are duplicates.
Day 95
Not just old antique shops - I can also find all the old game shops, old phonograph shops, and old appliances shops in Loveland City.
Day 96
Adam forgot to take the pot away the last time he had instant-boiled mutton hot pot in Live House. We could use it again today.
Day 97
Instead of believing in some “Mercury Retrograde”, why not come along with me to pray to Emperor Yang Gu, so he’ll save you from calamities.
Day 98
It’s become a habit to chat with you every day. If there are such challenges in the future, look for me too. Got it?
Day 99
It’s the second last day, and we’ll soon see the outcome of who has won this round. Are you sure you’ve been signing in every day?
Day 100
If there any other bets or challenges next time, I’m always ready and waiting.

Advance Online Typing Speed Test
An advanced typing test is the professional level of typing practice to increase your typing speed. The advance test focuses more on accuracy rather than just speed. When it comes to working efficiently in the office or elsewhere, accuracy will help you to do that. Being accurate at typing lets you type without any spelling mistakes and you become faster at typing. In this blog, we will share with you some pro tips on how to type accurately. So stay here.
What is the best method to practice typing and improve your typing speed?
You have to know why you lost to increase your typing speed after a certain limit (50 to 60 WPM).
You lost because you are not focusing on simple things while typing. As you are focusing on the information and the keys that you press, you ignore all other things.
You ignore your hand site, sitting site, arm site, hand-eye coordination, and any of you ignore to use their small finger too.
The 5 Benefits of Typing speed:
Speed:
This will be the first and common evident benefit of figuring out how to type by memory. A touch typist can assuredly arrive at typing speeds over 80-85words each moment, while a non-prepared individual is around 10. This is enhanced by the way that a skilled typist speed doesn't need to take a gander at the console. You will not only become more effective, but you will also be able to coordinate the center where it is needed.
Precision:
Whatever level of proficiency you attain in typing, it is fundamental to type precisely. This makes your or your staff trust in their archive creation as they will know what they are designing is spelled effectively and linguistically correctly.
Time:
If you speed up for instance, from say 30 words each time to 60, you have adequately separated the time it would take you to do a comparable measure of work. At a speed of 10 words per moment, a two-finger typist will complete a 170-word segment in around 17 minutes. Again, a speed typist can complete a similar section in 4 minutes when composing at 60 words each moment. The research has shown that trained speed-typists can save 20 - 35% of their time spent on a PC by acquiring this skill.
Reduction Fatigue:
Typing is both mentally and physically debilitating when done for prolonged periods. Finding out how to type by memory properly reduces mental and physical exhaustion. Intellectually, it prevents you from focusing on two things simultaneously. All you want to stress over is your yield, not getting the special keys. Truly, it keeps you from constantly twisting your head over the console to find a few keys.
Well-being:
Overall, typing by memory is more beneficial for your well-being. When you are not slouched over the keys and use your entire hand, the danger of dull pressure wounds (RSI) is diminished. Six – Profitability – by mastering typing by memory, you will become more efficient and even increase your own or your staff's confidence. Time is almost split and mistakes will be almost nonexistent. Typing by memory is an expertise to be happy for and is required inside most companies.
To get a good typing speed, how long should you practice?
Proper practicing is very important. Select a routing first then follow the routing. If you can arrange to practice 20 minutes a day for 2 months you will make a good result and your typing speed may reach 60 WPM quickly.
How to increase typing speed?
Increase your typing speed by using the method:
It is the most important factor that can improve your typing skills. There are many ways to type. You can take any of them, but touch typing is the fastest and most correct method.
In this way, the typist doesn't look at the keyboard while typing. As a result, they memorize the layout of the keyboard. As they only focus on the source, their typing speed automatically increases.
If you are a beginner, speed typing will be difficult for you. But once you understand the process and get used to the keyboard, I'm sure you'll love this method. Learn speed typing by reading this article: Typing speed Course.
In this case, you can choose the Hybrid method. It is a combination of the "Hunt and Peck" and "Touch typing" methods.
Typists memorized the positions of major keys and fixed their hand positions using this method. To type, they only move their fingers. Thus, they can type quickly.
What is a good typing speed?
I want to ask a very important question, what is a good typing speed, and what WPM should we aim for? In this case, we can say that the speed is above average. That's means if you are a student; we can say that over 30 words per minute are a great typing speed (as the normal typing speed of students is around 35.55 WPM).
To be a good typist or programmer, you must have a WPM speed over 60. We can say that a good speed is between 50 and 60 WPM on average. In a survey conducted by Microsoft Corporation, many HR managers expect their employees to be able to type above 50 words per minute. Therefore, if you are preparing for a job, you should aim for at least 50 WPM.
One of our surveys showed that a 14-year-old girl achieved 83 WPM speed. It means students don't need to be proficient with 35 to 50 words per minute typing. Practice more and more to improve your typing further. There is no limit to how far you can go.
Fastest typing speed in the world
In the world record of fastest typist, the name of Stella Pajunas Garnand stands out. The record was set in 1946 when she typed 216 words in one minute. Using a model an IBM electric typewriter, she made this record. The speed was the fastest ever recorded using a QWERTY keyboard layout in an online typing test.
According to some reviews and The Guinness World Records, the quickest typist is Barbara Blackburn. In 2005, he used a Dvorak keyboard to make this record. With 212 wpm, she was the fastest woman on the planet.
Women gain both the records, so it's fully a wrong myth that the typing speed of girls is lower than the of boys.
This detailed report should encourage you to practice more and improve your typing speed. Professional typists have an average typing speed of 60 WPM with an accuracy rate of 98%.
Conclusion:
So it appears that programmers and typists generally have better typing skills than students and office workers. You will certainly see a lot of improvement in your typing speed after practicing regularly for 2-3 weeks.

Nova Scotia reports 118 new cases of COVID-19 Tuesday, active cases drop to 1,591
Nova Scotia health officials are reporting 118 new COVID-19 cases Tuesday, bringing the province's total number of active cases to 1,591.
The 118 new cases marks the lowest single-day total since April 30, when 67 new cases were identified. The number of active cases has also dropped for the first time since April 14.
"This week is National Nurses Week. On behalf of all Nova Scotians, thank you. Each and every one of you plays a critical role within the health-care sector. Thank you for the many sacrifices you have made," said N.S. Premier Iain Rankin in a release. "Let's show our support and appreciation to all nurses by following the public health measures."
In a release, N.S. health officials say 98 of Tuesday's new cases are located in the province's Central zone.
Eleven new cases were identified in the Eastern zone, five new cases are being reported in the Western zone, and four new cases in the Northern zone.
The province is no longer including an "exposure category" (travel, close contact, etc.), citing increased investigations.
Health officials say there is evidence of community spread in Nova Scotia's Central zone.
Public Health says the province’s other zones, Eastern, Northern, and Western, are being monitored for signs of community spread.
"I want to thank Nova Scotians for their continued support, hard work and commitment to following the public health protocols," said Dr. Robert Strang, Nova Scotia's chief medical officer of health. "We are asking people to stick as close to home as possible and only travel outside your community when absolutely necessary. Everyone needs to use their judgment about what is necessary."
178 of Nova Scotia's previously reported cases are now considered resolved, with the total number of active infections dropping to 1,591.
BACKLOG OF POSITIVE CASES CONTINUES
Public health says they continue to work through the backlog of positive cases that need to be contacted and entered into the province’s online data system. To allow for timely notification, public health is contacting confirmed COVID-19 cases and close contacts by text message when possible.
Nova Scotia Health has created a team that is immediately calling all positive cases to advise they are positive and determine whether they need supports. Public health will continue to do detailed follow up on cases and contacts as soon as they are able.
Public health says due to delays, anyone tested due to a potential exposure, because they have symptoms, or were advised by public health that they were a close contact or needed to self-isolate until receiving test results, should continue to self-isolate until they receive a negative result. Their household should also isolate until contacted. Close contacts of confirmed COVID-19 cases and those who were present at high-risk exposure locations are required to self-isolate for a full 14 days, regardless of their test result. In addition, anyone who becomes unwell should assume that they have COVID-19, isolate along with their household and arrange testing.
N.S. COVID-19 CASE DATA
Nova Scotia Health Authority labs completed 4,421 COVID-19 tests on Monday. Officials have completed a total of 685,989 tests since the pandemic began.
Since the beginning of the pandemic, there have been 4,152 COVID-19 cases in Nova Scotia. Of those, 2,490 cases have recovered and 71 people have died due to COVID-19.
There are currently 64 people in hospital due to COVID-19, 10 of whom are in intensive care.
Since April 1, there have been 2,410 positive COVID-19 cases and five deaths. Of the cases since April 1, 814 are now considered resolved.
There are cases confirmed across the province, but most have been identified in the Central Zone, which contains the Halifax Regional Municipality.
The provincial government says cumulative cases by zone may change as data is updated in Panorama, the province’s electronic information system.
The numbers reflect where a person lives and not where their sample was collected.
Western Zone: 202 cases (55 active cases)
Central Zone: 3,447 cases (1,354 active cases)
Northern Zone: 202 cases (48 active cases)
Eastern Zone: 301 cases (134 active cases)
The provincial state of emergency, which was first declared on March 22, 2020, has been extended to May 16, 2021.
VACCINE ELIGIBILITY EXPANDED TO 40 AND OVER
Nova Scotians in the 40 to 44 age group can now book appointments to receive the Pfizer or Moderna COVID-19 vaccines.
The province announced Tuesday that effective immediately, people in that age group can book appointments at community clinics and participating pharmacy and primary care clinics that offer the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines.
According to the province, there are about 62,000 eligible Nova Scotians in the 40-44 age group. People in that age group have also been able to book appointments for the AstraZeneca vaccine since April 30.
N.S. Health says appointments for COVID-19 vaccines in community clinics and participating pharmacies will be released on a continuous basis as vaccine supply is confirmed.
The province is encouraging all Nova Scotians to get vaccinated against COVID-19 as soon as they are eligible.
COVID-19 vaccination appointments can be made online or by phone at 1-833-797-7772. Appointments cannot be booked directly through a community clinic, pharmacy or physician. Walk-ins will be turned away.
Nova Scotia's COVID-19 online dashboard provides an update on the amount of vaccines that have been administered to date.
As of Tuesday, 374,903 doses of COVID-19 vaccine have been administered. Of those, 37,784 Nova Scotians have received their second dose.
As Tuesday, Nova Scotia has received a total of 466,900 doses of COVID-19 vaccine since Dec. 15
CHANGES TO ASYMPTOMATIC TESTING STRATEGY
In order to address the test result backlog, Nova Scotia is shifting their COVID-19 asymptomatic testing strategy.
In the interim, most Nova Scotians are encouraged to use pop-up testing sites instead of booking a COVID-19 lab test over the next few days.
Individuals under the following categories are still encouraged to book lab tests:
anyone with symptoms
anyone who has been notified that they are a close contact of a known case
anyone who has been at an exposure location
anyone who has travelled outside Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland and Labrador
Public health says anyone who does not meet the above criteria and has already booked an appointment should cancel it following the instructions provided in their confirmation email.
The province says they are making an effort to increase rapid testing capacity around the province.
Pop-up testing locations being provided on Tuesday, include:
Alderney Gate Public Library (60 Alderney Dr., Dartmouth) - from noon to 7 p.m
Bridgewater Cineplex (349 Lahave St.) - from 2 to 7 p.m.
Canada Games Centre (26 Thomas Raddall Dr.) - from noon to 7 p.m.
Central Spryfield Elementary School (364 Herring Cove Rd.) - from 2 to 7 p.m
Centre 200 (481 George St, Sydney) - from 3 to 7 p.m.
Halifax Central Library (5440 Spring Garden Rd.) - from noon to 7 p.m.
Halifax Convention Centre (Argyle St. entrance, 1650 Argyle St.) - from noon to 7 p.m.
John Martin School (7 Brule St. Dartmouth) - from noon to 7 p.m.
COVID ALERT APP
Canada’s COVID-19 Alert app is available in Nova Scotia.
The app, which can be downloaded through the Apple App Store or Google Play, notifies users if they may have been exposed to someone who has tested positive for COVID-19.
LIST OF SYMPTOMS
Anyone who experiences a fever or new or worsening cough, or two or more of the following new or worsening symptoms, is encouraged to take an online test or call 811 to determine if they need to be tested for COVID-19:
Sore throat
Headache
Shortness of breath
Runny nose/nasal congestion

How to mentally keep baneful spirits out - no tools required AKA How Not To Give A F*** About the Uninvited
You can find so much info on here and throughout the web about negative entities and protecting yourself from them. Just as there is so much info, there are all of these different perspectives on how our energies associate with them. In this post I hope to cover a lot of different perspectives, as well as some creative methods for dealing with baneful spirits and your own defense magic tool set.
Introduction
A lot of mythical creatures are based in energetic truth- the vampire is aligned with the energy vampire, the evil and feared witch (like in the Witch movie) is aligned with the early-Christian understanding of the Wise People. The word Witch came from Wic, which means ‘Wisdom’ in Germanic languages. Think of anything given malevolent or benevolent power in the media, and you can likely tie it to misconceptions about the witchcraft and pagan community.
In Shonda Rhimes’ “Grey’s Anatomy” there is an episode where Dr. Miranda Bailey talks about how her OCD creates negative, scary fears within the mind that feel so real that they become real, but she also says that if her mind can think up and believe in these terrible, scary things, she can also think up positive things that make her feel better about those fears- things that help create a buffer, to save her from being so afraid. I’m completely blanking on which episode this was, if you know please let me know and I’ll add it in. By bringing this up, I want to point to something that inspired me to write this post: that elasticity of our perception and of the power we hold within ourselves being dependent on our awareness of our power.
All of this to say that this is not a post created for someone experiencing demonic intrusion. I may or may not have experienced this kind of interaction and if I have, I was simply saved by calling on Jesus (holy freaking heck did not expect the Christian god to help me out but he did) and asking that he save my soul from the attack. If you are under demonic attack or believe that you are, please consult a shaman or a witch who knows how to deal with demonic power. My understanding of demons is that they were the very first spirits here, and so they are the oldest of the old and have a lot of power. That’s not to say your power stands no chance against them, but if you feel overwhelmed by the spirits you’re facing, a lot of the times it is helpful not just for our spiritual protection but also for our perception of how safe we are to call on someone outside of us for help- whether that be a deity or other type of spirit we revere as having badass protective strength or another human we believe can help protect us/banish whatever’s in your sphere.
Perception and Reality
What we believe is what we see. Another way to phrase this is, ‘Where the mind goes, your energy flows”, a very famous phrase within the spiritual community (I believe it has Buddhist origins but not sure of who said it first). This is why a lot of witches are recommended to meet with a therapist or psychologist regularly to ensure our mental health is strong. A lot of people within our community believe that mental health creates spiritual gaps wherein baneful spirits can creep in and target us, but others believe that the cause of mental problems is our spiritual health itself. I’m in the camp of believing mental health is important no matter how you see the correlation- taking care of your brain is just as important as keeping up with the rest of your practice.
Another aspect of protection and magic is not just ‘what we see’ but how. To bring in a little cognitive function theory, someone with extroverted intuition (or Ne) would likely see a situation and the world from twenty or more different lenses. This is like viewing the world through a multi-faceted crystal and being able to look at all these different crystal-edges and see a different distortion. And that’s really what our view is mostly, because it is nearly impossible to go around living your life and be able to see everything EXACTLY as it is. It’s just not reasonable to think you’re going to be able to have a clear lens every time. If you do and if you’ve developed that, please share how you did and help me figure that out haha, but until then I’m going to work with my understanding that our perception is going to have some type of illusion to it.
And here comes what this post has been leading to- the thing I’m excited about. The Imagining, and the power in that imagining. This is mental craft.
The You-Shaped Perception
In focus meditation you’re told that attention to the breath or to one sensation is important, because you’re narrowing your cannon-sized attention to the size of a pinhole. In much the same way, mental magic is about not just changing your lens, but also how you use that lens.
You can. do. Anything.
It’s true. I mean, within physical means, right? You’re only going to fly if you know how to build mechanical wings, so this isn’t some offhanded promise meant halfheartedly. Nope, I mean this with all of me.
The mind is our friend and our enemy. I’m not even a big fan of meditation and yet I know that. It’s that changeable lens we see things through and how we think of them.
Our mind, my friend, is our power.
In speaking of the mind, I am not just thinking about your brain matter, or your reason, or whatever. I’m talking intention (leading to manifestation) and conscious attention to changing our thoughts.
Think something long enough and you start to believe it. Don’t like your thoughts, or how you feel? What thought or visualization would help you feel better?
There are rabbit holes we fall into where we either can’t control our thoughts and feelings due to mental illness and other times when we just don’t want to control them. Sometimes it feels good to be swept away by our own ocean of emotion and madness. It’s part of being human. The former situation (with the rabbit holes) is likely to be helped by a mental health professional and possibly some anti-depressants. The latter can a p p a r e n t l y be helped by meditation.
(Also, did you know that meditation helps grow the gray matter in your brain? Sitting down and just watching your thoughts pass like clouds, allowing your body to rest, opens you up to expanded compassion, self awareness, contemplation, and helps your memory. If anyone is interested in practicing this, I’m going to be working through this free online MBSR/Mindfulness course in the hopes of helping my depression and my powers of intention- it looks like a great resource especially during this time of political and global tension. I believe our souls are deeply connected to one another and also to the overall soul of the world. Everything that happens in it is something we collectively experience and all of the stress along with this social isolation that the majority of us are experiencing is incredibly traumatizing. I highly recommend checking this out and seeing how it affects you over a few weeks’ time: https://palousemindfulness.com/ )
The point I’m trying to make here is that 98 times out of 100 times, YOU control your perception. And that’s a very empowering and creative thing. Especially when you identify as a witch 😄
gif of Joaquin Phoenix as the joker with a smiling mask on, then pulling up the mask and grinning.
DAMN TABITHA JUST GET TO THE POINT ALREADY
Okay okay. Here’s my point.
You can use creativity in your craft. You know this already. But you don’t need a book of spells (they’re fun to read though) and you don’t need the latest books on psychic magic. You can seriously just use your magical brain.
Intention is everything. Your natural intuitive powers are where your strength lies- I’d say it’s the key to unlocking whatever the heck you want in life.
Look at your life like it is a children’s story book or movie, alright? It sounds stupid but please stay with me if you made it this far, because I think this is where it gets good. You know how the main character faced this seemingly impossible task or challenge, and they didn’t know how they’d do it but they did it anyway? Things just worked out for them, either because they did some work to help meet their goal and they fought to believe in themselves, or because the writer(s) wanted to throw them some tools that would help them easily get their goal.
You’re the main character and you’re the author of your story. And not only are you the author, but you’ve got all these spirits helping you co-author what unfolds in your life. So it doesn’t matter if there’s a damn fire-breathing knife-throwing monster standing on top of you while you sleep because in your witch brain, all you need to do is say “I am stronger than you will ever be. I am the apex predator” and watch that nasty bugger fucking deflate.
What is the most empowering thing is realizing that you are worth fearing, yourself.
Now this isn’t an excuse to take on a bad-bitch persona and mess your life up. Don’t go around hexing people willy nilly, please. Don’t think you can conjure a demon and be able to control it.
Just know that you can control yourself and the space you’re in. Cause you a badass, bitch.
An actual example from my real life
I have a little known disorder called Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. Essentially it’s scary AF because I have dislocations on the daily and they’re painful and honestly, it’s the bane of my existence.
That’s not even exaggerating haha.
So along with it comes a lot of second guessing self worth, because of how it’s perceived and how I’m perceived because I’m a lady with EDS. The questions I’ve fielded, the conversations I’ve had, the experiences I’ve had to deal with as a result of it are utterly ridiculous (sometimes, downright despicable).
One day I was talking to my therapist about self-perception and not feeling strong enough to face life with my handicap, and she asked me to point out the strengths it’s encouraged in me. I was able to point to a few things and while I did, I could see Brigid beside me and this oak shield forming around my body, and I imagined that every word I spoke, every good quality I have grown from having my disorder, made that shield stronger.
There are the times when I rabbit hole and I forget what that armor means and looks like. I forget that it’s there. But inevitably, something happens that would normally feel like it was undermining me and instead, I remember that oak shield and Brigid’s protective, loving energy, and I remember how expansive it feels to see myself as being worth this life and as having valuable traits to offer to the world. That’s when I see that shield again.
As you can see this isn’t only for spirits, but it applies even in those situations too. I’ll detail my channeling session that ended with calling on Jesus another time haha as this is getting quite long. To wrap this up:
TL;DR: “How not to give a f*** about unwanted spirits”
- Decide not to give a f***
- Decide what you will give a f*** about
- Find a couple practices for protection that you like and stick with them
- Know what clairs you have that are strongest (and if none feel that strong right now, that’s perfectly normal. Don’t put pressure on yourself, just enjoy exploring how your intuition works and pay attention without obsessing (or try not to obsess anyways). You have time to experiment with intuition, I’ll try to find some good sources for this and write something for those of you frustrated with figuring out where your skills lie or how to use them.
- Know that they’re working, that you’re a freaking badass witch, and that nothing can come into your space without earning your wrath (which can just be a GTFO and a call on your fave deity if you like)
A lot of the time, spirits who show up don’t actually have any dominion to stay. You have the power. You own the space, you own YOUR space (the space of your body). So own that you own it and do it with certainty. Feel the POWAH haha.

POSITIVE 20 QUESTIONS TAG GAME
I was tagged by @peanutbutterandgrapejelly. Thank you for the tag, Peanut, this seems pretty loaded, but in a good way, so here goes!!
1. Name 4 fictional characters who showcase your personality the best, with explanations if you want.
Sue Heck! I don't think I let all of it out, but on the inside, I constantly feel like I'm extremely Sue Heck-y, :')
Amy Santiago, in a lot of regards, I'll say. Uh, cares a lot about her friends, ambitious, and would basically die/murder for organization, but also socially awkward and, uh, mostly percepted as a goody-two-shoes. Also, true nerd™.
Mindy Lahiri! (I mean, again, this seems more of a who I feel like I am, and not who I come across as, cause those two things tend to differ on a variety of levels?)
Sam Winchester (you know I had to) Basically, we're both INFJs. I'm not even close to his level, but my brain officially ran out of characters so uh, empathetic, constantly interpreted as "boring" and the "brains", patient, *yearns to settle down with someone they love*, believes in second chances. The whole nine, but toned down XD
2. Aesthetic:
I'd usually have a hard time with this one, but I recently did a long thing about my aesthetic, so! I'm going to say, soft pastel, beige, and shades of white!! A tinge of light academia, but mostly unassumingly modern, and faded rainbows as watermarks.
3. Favorite musical/play? If you've never seen a musical or play, one you'd be interested in seeing?
You got me ~ never seen any. (I mean, school plays don't count, right?) I honestly have a bunch of musicals I want to see, recommendations from friends online, but somehow it always slips my mind. But, off the top of my head, @spot-the-brooklyn-pirate wanted me to check this one out, and I am looking forward to actually doing it sometime: Book of Mormon.
4. What's the best compliment you've ever received?
Mostly, anyone who says I, in any way, made them happy, literally gives me the best compliment ever. And uh, my sister called me inspiring once, and it stuck. When I nagged her into elaborating, she said she thought I was functional in spite of all my flailings, and self-analytic, and it didn't make sense to me, but I still think about that.
And a few people, over the course of time, have named some of my fics as their favorites, and those stay with me for a very long time.
5. How many times have you been in love?
Hardly once. She's still one of the most important people in the world to me, but as somebody great once said, if you don't fight for it, it doesn't count. And we didn't.
6. Embarrassing story or fact about yourself which now makes you laugh?
By far the most embarrassing thing I've ever done, is written a fic on wattpad which revolved around my own life, except for the fact that it really, really didn't. Long story shortened, I was in sixth grade, and had a surface-level-y crush on this guy, and it seemed like a brilliant idea at the time. In the story, we're all in senior year, though the authoress forgot pretty much all the real things about school XD it's not just cringy, but also extremely sixth-grade-y written, and it astounds me to this day that it went on to have like 18,000 views? (I managed to block the entire shtick out, until a few months back, when I randomly remembered and rushed to unpublish the work. *facepalm* it even had all our real names)
7. Favorite Disney/Pixar movie?
This one's so hard. Uh. Ratatouille, maybe?
8. Favorite flower/plant?
I regret having to confess that I probably don't have one :( but hey, my go-to answer for these ones is daisies, because they remind me of the lovely @daisy-jeon <3
9. What's your favorite holiday?
Holi :')
(I miss it being like the older times, though? Somehow it always clashes with my final exams these last few years, and Shelley is often not home, but it still really makes me happy, so just imagine how perfect it used to be, when I was a kid!!)
10. Name three things that made you smile/laugh this past week.
Rewatching The French Mistake!! A really great decision, haha!
The lovely comments an older fic of mine received, (about old Destiel, uwu) since a couple of big blogs happened to reblog it 🙈🙈🙈 and my activity started blowing up!!
A full-blown coffee high, which resulted in me being hilarious through a 98-message monologue to dish, eeeeee!!
11. What song would you play to introduce yourself to someone?
I'd been dreading this question the most, because I'm horrible at remembering good songs when I - need to be. Oofsies.
But I guess I could wing it with 'What About Us' by P!nk.
12. Name something that truly makes you peaceful even at your most stressful moments.
Writing about Character A of a ship going through said stressful moment, and Character B being the best possible responder to all of it. Projection's the key to functionality, kids.
13. What do you, did you, or would you study at college?
Would you, and will you, sound unfortunately like different questions to me, so I'm going to answer the one which is asked. I'd like to major in History, with a minor in English. (And to be crude for a bit, as my sister calls it, thus successfully be left solely employable as a teacher.)
14. This is kind of a weird one, but which outfit of yours makes you feel most like yourself?
My black Avenger's logo t-shirt, with this pink hooded, kinda-down-past-my-hips, not-warm-at-all jacket and any one of my numerous, mwuahaha, grey shorts.
I never said I'd go out of the house in that outfit, did I?
15. What is a quote you live by?
I don't think there aren't any. I'm just here, faking it till I make it. Still, if I had to choose? Misha's "Be Kind to Yourself so You can be Happy enough to Be Kind to Others" is something I aspire to live by.
16. Name the funniest playlist name you have.
I'm sad that I don't have any funnily named ones now. Sorry to disappoint, but I'm hoping that it counts a teensy bit that I have like seven playlists just for background shtuff when I'm working, and they're all named *extremely* similarly, with variations of the word "study" basically, but all have exceptionally different vibes.
But I really am sorry, and I'm going to try and up my playlist-humor-game.
17. Make a reference to an inside joke you have with someone you love with zero context.
'Time for tapwater'.
18. What is a message you'd give your younger self if given a chance?
Don't build your sense of self-worth over the people whose opinions you think matter. You don't have to get everybody to like you. (Oh, and probably don't switch between multiple first-person-pov's, even though you're just writing the most unrealistic self-indulgent fiction EVER.)
19. Who is your favorite family member? (If you have no good blood family members, feel free to mention someone in your found family)
Hands down, my sister. Shelley, didi, @iamcharliebradburylevelperfect, you're like the best part of my life, and you're probably going to be the longest part of it, too. Cause we might not have the best record for funny titles to call each other by, but we still nail the cheesy till the end of the line moments, ;)
20. What's a secret dream of yours?
I, uh. Want to run a completely-revolutionalizing-the-concept-of-education-style school ~ a boarding school actually, with my best friend dish. And as a means to acquire funds for it? We're going to do a whole lotta stand-up. :D
(Oh, and since i've already rambled for at least a thousand words, so what's the harm in a few more? At some point, probably on my birthday, I want to do a YouTube livestream, a pre-planned one of course, and everybody I've ever been frens with, on this dumb, wholesome hellsite???? They're all sent an invitation to join!! And there's nothing to do, really, we just talk and everyone's enjoying themselves, and I dunno, I had a dream about this once, and I've been so ridiculously smitten with the idea since!
Huh, maybe I could rally forces starting now, to make this possible by my eighteenth!!)
If anyone would like to play, these are really awesome questions! @3dg310rdsupreme @mystybloo @thotfordean @bcozwhythefuknot @theninthdutchessofhell @awkward-penguin-in-a-trenchcoat @quicksilver-ships @all-or-nothing-baby @screamatthescreen @telefunkies @elvenlicht @facepalmmylifeu @specialagentrin @noemithenephilim @but-for-the-gods-three-days

How feminine do you consider yourself? How do you determine that? I mean, if it means makeup and dresses, then not very cause I haven’t worn makeup in over a year and it’s been a few years since I’ve worn a dress. I’m all about comfy casual.
