@dozenrozez / knight + liam - set in the verse where liam is traded to another city and kinda falls away from the friend group after breaking up with cassie

"Wait, wait, wait. Back up." Liam freezes after shifting the phone to his other ear. "What do you mean? You're in town this weekend?" His expression falls into a slow smile. "Were you going to mention that or just hope I wouldn't find out?" Though, he doesn't leave her much time to respond before he continues. "Come to the game tomorrow. We can hang out after."

Just Because! Swept Under The Rug

The first of (currently) a pair of anime originals from Pine Jam, Just Because! is something that I was given in r/Anime's monthly anime swap in their Discord server, and something that I was genuinely excited to watch.

That was the wrong approach. Just Because! is certainly full of the juvenile wonder of Pine Jam- struggles and all- but it's undermined by challengingly opaque writing throughout, and a blindingly terrible and confusing finale.

In its own way it's certainly a unique experience, but through all of the information I discuss in the full review, it's a series that I simply can't recommend others to watch.

Xie Lian replied, “I’m going to search for a place to stay. Fu Yao, why are you rolling your eyes again?”

Not to sound like my mom, but I hope they get stuck like that one day.

Meanwhile, Xie Lian fumbled around before finding some coins to use as an offering to the Earth God’s shrine. Then, upon spotting the incense sticks scattered to the side, he straightened them before lighting them up. During this process, Fu Yao had rolled his eyes so many times Xie Lian practically wanted to ask him if his eyes were tired.

Like, look at this! What is the reason for this??? Tell me I’m wrong to call this guy an asshole so I can throw the book at you!

I think one of the kindest things you can do for people with various mental health struggles is just... let people back into your life after they've been absent for a while.

Making friends as an adult is so fucking hard already and isolating yourself from other people is a very common symptom of depression, anxiety, burnout, ocd, trauma, grief, etc. Which means that someone will do the hard work of recovery/healing and resurface back into a world where their previous friends have written them off because they stopped showing up.

So if you know someone where you're like "yeah we could have been better friends but they fell off the map a bit" and that person suddenly reaches out, or starts showing up to events even though you kind of forgot they were still in the group chat... well they may have been Going Through It and you don't actually have to punish them for their absence you can just be glad that they're back.

please i love you i'm begging you bring back suspension of disbelief bring back trusting the audience like. i cannot handle any more dialogue that sounds like a legal document. "hello, i am here to talk to you about the incident from a few minutes ago, because i feel you might be unwell, and i am invested in your personal wellbeing." "thank you, i am unwell because the incident was hurtful to me due to my childhood, which was bad." I CANT!!!!

do you know how many people are mad that authors use "growled" as a word for "said"? it's just poetics! they do not literally mean "growled," it's just a common replacement for "said with force but in a low tone." it's normal! do you hear me!! help me i love you please let me out of here!!!

Do you ever write a sentence and then realize “Nah, that’s too self aware for you” and backspace a bunch of times.

i think we should remind musicians they can absolutely make up little stories for their songs btw. it doesn’t have to be about them at all. you can invent a guy and put him in situations to music. time honoured tradition in fact.

Being kink positive makes it really hard to be a hater of media rip. I used to love watching “the WORST book I’ve read this year” booktube videos but now its like I hear them ask, “Who is this werewolf smut even for?” Omegaverse fans, next question. “Why would you write this?” Because they find it sexy, can we stop focusing on the ewie yucky kink part and focus on the fact that the author used the word knot five times in a single scene? It’s bad werewolf erotica, but it’s not bad because it’s werewolf erotica like come on
