ttds obviously should count as a Christmas song, but should ivy?

ttds should be considered a modern holiday classic! the holidays linger like bad perfume, you can run, but only so far. ivy totally counts, aaron put sleigh bells into the production! in from the snow, your touch brought forth an incandescent glow, tarnished but so grand! (aaron: "just in terms of what we were interested in, there is a wintry nostalgia to a lot of the music that was intentional on my part...that’s why you hear sleigh bells on “Ivy,” or why some of the imagery in the songs is wintery.")

champagne problems too, if you want to devastate yourself for the season. your midas touch on the chevy door! november flush and your flannel cure! this dorm was once a madhouse, i made a joke, well it's made for me. how evergreen our group of friends, don't think we'll say that word again! and soon they'll have the nerve to deck the halls that we once walked through!!!

other not technically christmas songs that count as holiday playlist additions: snow on the beach, back to december, the moment i knew, you are in love, lover (especially the first dance remix), atw 10 (if you're feeling particularly unhinged)

#'tis the damn season is the be all end all though. the heart i know i'm breaking is my own! to leave the warmest bed i've ever known!#but i'll never forget hearing 'your midas touch on the chevy door' for the first time and fully having to pause the album on TRACK TWO #because it knocked the wind out of me #anonymous #letterbox #thrown out speeches #evermore

clasping my hands behind my back as sweat rolls down my face. there were so many harrowing things said in the second trial report⸻dangling haruka's fate like a toy, alluding to mahiru's life⸻but jackalope remarking how kotoko's efficiency of judgement through violence worked makes me feel so sick. genuinely had to take a break from the video for a moment.

not because it's wrong per se, but because wouldn't kotoko herself disagree? she's harped repeatedly how she's not happy the scum criminals have been granted an innocent. it would be such a slap in the face to be commended for her efforts while rotting in her restraints. like, if i was her i'd crash a brick through the window, climb in, and fistfight that rabbit.

#i think i've seen mentions of this being brought up floating around here and there #but jackalope repeatedly setting up how we often voted based on remorse only to point out how kotoko MADE THEM remorseful #was just like a wind-up punch. got the air knocked out of me. oh my god #psychic dmg pain because i love this woman too much #﹙ 🍓 ﹚ prattles.#milgram #kotoko yuzuriha

do love how this is an asoiaf blog but i did not put either show in my top 10 this is the world we live in

#the only season that really compares to the book is season 1.#the rest even when they’re engaging have changed something that feels so central to the hook that i’m mad aksjd.#getting on my soap box #if iwtv s3 is good it may knock someone out. probably qaf.#bsg is p high up there i just think season 4 really suffered on pacing & the suspicious nature of who dies annoyed me.#veep is also very high up there tbh i need to rewatch it. the thing is. as we know. i am a romantic at heart and amy & jonah have my favorit #sitcom relationship. veep has genuinely one of the best finales to ever exist but i’m a sap.#and amy coming back to tell jonah that he made her realize she doesn’t actually have to expect the worst from life. oh my god.#also superstore >>> parks & rec >>> the office bc superstore never romanticized the hell of their job #amy quitting her corporate job when she realized she would never be able to make the changes she wanted within the system she was always #going to compromise too much and wind up like jeff. glenn reopening his dad’s hardware shop & specifically who goes w him & who stays w gina #at the store? it has what the other two lack which is characters that feel like they keep existing after you stop watching #BECAUSE the way they interacted with the world was so real and so much more realistic. amy can’t fix the system but she can find a job that #she doesn’t feel is so soul sucking. glenn may be choosing a harder path by reopening the hardware store but it’s the one that makes him #most fulfilled. gina just gets to make money and be bossy w people who do what they’re told. that rings so true to me.#i almost out bojack horseman in here too actually but once again i think the last season just needed to be a tad longer just like bsg.#also same issue w pitch as w bly manor - it’s an amazingly written season of tv but it’s ONE season of tv #big brother as always outsells yes i am hoping to tempt some of u into watching by posting dan & ian in the dog costume #i have that gif and the ‘sit’ scene saved on my phone always

it'd be cool if my shit idiot body would let me sleep through the night instead of insisting on waking up at 1 am sharp

#doesn't help that there's a really heavy wind storm rn. lots of things being knocked over and the crashing noises keep spooking me #also my power went out? it's back now tho #not that this matters i'd be wide awake regardless because for some reason my body thinks this is a sensible sleep schedule #UGHHHHHHHH guess i'll make coffee i'm not going back to bed any time soon

Cardio said my echocardiogram ultrasound, exercise stress test, and week long heart monitor all showed no serious issues, my resting heart rate is fine, but that my heart rate does seem to rise very rapidly under even small amounts of stress (postural changes, taking stairs, casually walking around my house) and rises very high (160+ bpm according to the monitor) so now I get to be put on beta blockers to see if they work and if they do she said that is sufficient evidence to confirm for sure that it's POTS.

Obviously could confirm it as well with a tilt table test but those are TORTURE based off what I've heard from fellow POTSies so I am very thankful that she doesn't think that's necessary and will not be making me do one.

#i was not expecting to get dx and meds this fast tbh but im very happy about it #i think the fact that she also has POTS herself helps because she is very well acquaintaned with what it looks and feels like #and how hard it is to actually catch with orthostatics in office unless youre having a bad heart day #so my orthostatics not being within range was unsurprising to her and she was like #'that doesnt mean anything you clearly still have a heart rate issue going on even if it didnt show itself right now'#i didnt do shit the entire week i had that monitor on to like physically exert myself but my heart rate still hit almost 170 a few times #also the doctor who did my stress test asked me if i ever experience any chest discomfort or pain and i was like hm no dont think so #and he went 'your chart says you have palpitations though?'#and i was like '... those count as discomfort???' akdjaicidjwjcjsn the answer is yes apparently #im just so used to them now because i have them daily that they dont even really register to me anymore #unless theyre bad enough to knock the wind out of me or make me cough #they just make me anxious which... ig is also a form of discomfort #chronic illness and chronic pain problems though lol not having a normal baseline for discomfort and pain #ndr #not dog related #health stuff #not that anyone probably cares lol but im excited about getting things that have neen affecting me for years FINALLY figured out #im not crazy im just disabled!!!!#*been

One does wonder what toei will do with this particular family dynamic, given that both Shoma's parents are dead and his siblings seem to just plain hate him. Not exactly fertile ground for forgiveness, especially with how Shoma's been portrayed as pretty merciless toward man-eating Granutes.

Not that I *want* to see him kill them all, but I think them ending up "one big happy family" would be out of tone with the show. I'm seeing more of a theme of "if your family sucks, make your own family".

see I'm not seeing them going the route of reviving them or doing a one big happy family thing, but one of my least favourite tropes I've seen along with that is "oh nooo I'm maybe wrong for being so mad and not seeing the nuances of this thing my dad did because it was secretly something to benefit my own wellbeing so maybe I was too harsh on him".

I get squicked out by things too where this is sort of like Stacy's mom in Zenkaiger except where they left most of the details in Zenkai out of it because kids didn't need to know all that, the implications of Shoma's conception are a little 😬 if we're going with "his mom was kidnapped and held captive against her will and raised her son in fear of being killed and taken away at any moment"

#one would hope they dont do this #but ive been taken by surprise one too many times by toei tokusatsu #and its always knocked the wind out of me #thinking about George's dad and the resolution to that being like #Silly George dont be mad at all the horrible things your dad did #you just miss him because you still love him and he didd #*died

Recent things.. mostly just writing screenshots lol

#There's a water problem in the apartment so thats been taking most of my attention lol.. the way maintenance happens here is just #this big long vague wait with no clear communication. You just send in a request to the apartment building and then you might hear from the #any weekday from 8am - 4pm any time after that. Sometimes it's quick but sometimes its like days before you hear anything. So then #you just have to be operating under the assumption that at any time during working hours you might get a call or a knock at the door #Like if you were expecting company at any time for a week straight ghjhj.. ANYWAY.. I've been working on making a little discord #server thing for the game maybe for playtesters to communicate in initially i guess but then also after it's out or... something like that.#no idea how all of that works. but you hear about people doing it. or something... Still not entirely sold on the idea since I'm not really #a big user of discord format speaking (like little chats and stuff) but.. again idk.. seems like.. common.. for things...(< socially odd #hermit fumbling through trying to imitate what '''normal''' people do/enjoy/desire lol..). Since I think my biggest issue is I am very bad #at socializing and thus marketing since a lot of that is social. The type to just google ''what do people do about games once they've #made them'' and just go after whatever the top 10 things apparently are hjbjhbjh... But like I said. still unsure it will be utilized. it #all feels very awkward to me. then again most things do. But that's what the ''overall progress'' screenshot is from. the little channel #where I've been posting updates to myself lol. Also ''coding'' in that being used very lightly consdering it's ren'py and I'm only using #the very bare bones most basic functionality of it lol. Extremely intense highly daunting master level coding such as ''if x then y''. gbjh #slacked on writing a lot due to the evil maintenance and such things... and just general... appointments... events... aughhhhhh #I think it's Goose Time here or something because nearly every day I hear big V shaped rows of geese flying by like multiple #times a day and they're so pretty and neat to watch. They've really inspired me somehow. Today it was rainy and gray skied and high winds #and cold (some of my favorite most beautiful weather) and I went out to check the mail and like 6 or 7 rows of geese fluttered #by in the air. I felt like that meme image of that guy that looks kind of weird (william dafoe??) and its like black and white and #he's looking up at something almost teary eyed wide eyed in awe.. The goose... those are my goose.. the universe sent those gooses just #for me and the high speed winds blowing my coat open and chilling my face... a tender platonic kiss from the world is often delivered #by way of chilly weather and bird formations.. peace and love on planet earth truly..#OH and of course.. boy with boy!!!! shout out to those little mcdonalds toy animal plushies from like 2006 or something. I found the #gray cat one and was like.. hrmm.. I have one of those as well (a real life gray cat). surely they're friends now.

#life is just. so incredibly sad and confusing and empty these days #however #i have felt as held as i could possibly feel #i have a mother who answers my three daily phone calls #and i have the baristas at my usual spot who make my usual coffee and don't ask why it's just been me recently even though they notice #i have friends who've let me stay in their home when my home wasn't bearable #friends who bundle me up and rub my back and watch me cry for the first time since meeting me #friends who bring me my favorite flowers without even knowing they're my favorite #and help me take my shots because i'm not done needing help #and friends who've let me go completely radio silent because this situation is more complicated than anything has ever been #and just explaining even the facts is too overwhelming #and i have a stupid cat who sleeps under the covers with me every night #and i have plants to keep alive #and i have the library to sit in when i need quiet but not silence #and i have my enormous gigantic heart that loves so hard it knocks the wind out of me #and i have whoever's going to love me next waiting around to meet me when it's time #and i have this healthy body and this almost-healed chest and two lungs and two hands #i have even more than all of that too #anyway

"Don't panic... I was born this way. I didn't learn it at theatre school. I was born butch. I'm so queer I don't even have to talk about it. It speaks for itself, it's not funny. Being butch isn't funny... don't panic... I fall to pieces in the night. I'm just thousands of other parts of other people all mashed into one body. I am not an original person. I take all of these pieces, snatch them off the floor before they get swept under the bed, and I manufacture myself."

Stanely, Belle Reprieve

#butch lesbians i love you #ppl label me butch because they can't find a good place to fit me but i'm nowhere close and it almost feels like an insult to you #something something finding yourself in community something something i feel like i'm reaching for scraps bc i know almost no other lesbian #getting the wind knocked out of me in theatre history
