[tennisdadsaficionado]

I am exhausted and overstimulated - my spoons levels were really low today, insomnia and pain yay, and my ability to block background noise, even with noise-cancelling headphones, has been non-existent.

I've got an extension on my essay so I don't have to worry about that until the quieter end of the week.

My Nike t-shirt came, it's comfy and a really good fit so that's in the wash so that I can wear it

I have a pepsi and some chocolate, and I think my plan for this evening involves writing some more sincahillcurling up on the couch with a book and chilling

It hurts without you. But your suffering is over.

WIP. Pretty sure I invented a new music genre today so I get to name it. I am calling it yarble-core. It yarbles. To make yarble-core you need to make it yarble.

To my unnamed OC, I hope you can stop appearing in my mind like a TV whose remote I can't find and somehow won't turn off to this day.

Here's a sketch based on this song.

[Unnamed OC]: It's Still My Show

The TV turns on and mindless staring starts. You'll have to wonder when the gaze that the shows on TV captured with rapt attention had gone. Or maybe even wonder why when looking at your life, you couldn't muster one eye to focus. And now I wonder of all of that too.

In all honesty? If life was a show, mine is a sh*t show. My god. But it is this show. Here I am stuck playing the lead. If I could write it all by myself, then maybe the plot didn't have to drag on like this for so long. But who's to say I could be a better writer? None, that's what these trashed papers tell me after being sent out the door, rejected. What's "better" if it can't even be "good"...

Changing the channel, I still don't see what I like. No matter where I go, I still can't seem to change it. What's up with this show? My god.

Honestly, it is a sh*t show. But it's this show that I want to see.

If you keep telling me that, do you think it'll just get good as it keeps playing... But I know for one that you won't let me turn it off.

Fine. So it's still a sh*t show. But it's this show. I want to be there if you'll keep watching.

HH: Relish the Experiences

[purple-goo-writes]

Thanks to @starry-bi-sky I now have another dpxdc idea based on how Danny would meet the YJ group. And for some reason the Weasels are Thirsty.

Fucking Twitter or TikTok.

Punk/Long Haired/Piercings Young Adult/College age Danny accidently being a Cryptid Thirst Trap. Maybe Danny has Zero fucks to give an does one of those Be Careful Who You Call Ugly in Highschool posts.

Like maybe he's doing a trendy tiktok but like the lights go out due to power outage.and his Eyes are Literally Glowing (nothing else can be seen But his eyes) before the tiktok ends.

Possibly him cheekily posting a selfie showing off his new tongue and lip piercings. Possibly the photo is just a close up of his smirking mouth while he sticks his tongue out between the V his fingers make.

Just Core Four YJ crushing Hard on this Civilian Punk Twunk!

Have you ever talked about LRPD’s title? Is it inspired by the Hozier song?

[wow this ended up being long]

Yes! Like Real People Do’s title came from the Hozier song.

To me, the song is about two traumatized people wishing they could love with the simple of ease of the “ordinary” and I know I’m not the only queer person to take that interpretation.

See, I knew intimately what it was like to look at someone and think I could love them, maybe, but also recognize that the process of finding out wouldn’t be simple purely because that person shared my gender.

I recall a pretty terrible moment of recognition when I was a teenager; being bisexual, I’d had a handful of crushes at that point. But when I had a crush on a boy, the scariest thing about it was if I flirted and he wasn’t interested. If he was, the rest was easy—dates and kisses and getting to know each other.

But with a girl, I wasn’t even sure what the scariest thing could be. There wasn’t just the risk of her not returning my interest. If she WAS interested, that would be far more dangerous. How would we maintain our relationship in secret? What if we were discovered? We’d certainly be kicked out of our very conservative private school. But would we also be kicked out of our homes? Would we be sent away to special schools or conversion therapy? Would our lives irrevocably be changed purely because we wanted to experience the simple teenage pleasure of falling in love?

It wasn’t fair. Why couldn’t we just kiss like real people do?

And even when I moved away from home and went to college, that fear [not to mention the boatload of religious trauma] followed me and colored my interactions as I cautiously started seeking out queer spaces.

The first time I heard the song, I had an almost visceral reaction to it—I was catapulted back to being a teenager struggling with this yearning that existed within me that I felt I could tell no one without cataclysmic risk.

When I wrote Like Real People Do in my early 20’s I was still very much grappling with that feeling and I put a lot of that yearning into Alex’s character. And while I’m not sure the book does justice to the title, I certainly thought the title encapsulated the excitement-tempered-by-fear vibe I was going for with Alex and Eli’s romance.

(I had another formative moment, many years later, after I moved to the Gayborhood in Dallas [mentioned in book 4!]. It was the opposite scenario, where I found myself waiting outside the S4 club, looking around at so many unapologetically queer people and feeling like I could kiss anyone I wanted on the street without fear. And god do I wish everyone felt that way all the fucking time.)

"...Yeah."
