#cleaning house

[trulybetty]

out with the old, in with the... half finished?

We're all going to collectively ignore that I made one of these posts a couple months back, okay? lol

TLDR summary, my small hiatus turned longer than expected, life was well life and I'm back... hopefully lol.

So in part of coming back, I've decided to clean house, and make some room for some new things. Nothing is being deleted - however, I'm in the process of creating a new masterlist. So some stuff may or may not be left behind. There are some WIP's that have evolved over time into new ideas that I want to take away and rework and some that I'm ready to move on from.

So for now, I'm here, trying to jump back in and figure out how I want to exist in this space. But I missed you all terribly and if I could smoosh your faces in a giant consensual cwtch I would 😘💕🫂

Also, feel free to send me anything you've written/read lately that I should check out! My TBR list got lost in the melee so I'm excited to see what everyone has been up to as I catch up!

And as always, Pedro Tax™️

it’s all fun and games until you get summoned to do some (integral shadow) work.

Aina's Fall Cleanup 2024

A few years ago I resolved to tackle the clutter in my house bit by bit and it was a surprisingly popular post. So I'm gonna do it again! I'm going to try to do one thing each day to work on making my house cleaner and post progression pictures here to help keep myself motivated and, maybe, inspire others to work on cleaning their "room" too.

Today I tackled this small section of my kitchen counter. I know it doesn't look like much, there's still about twice as much clutter as I would like. But I filled an entire kitchen garbage bag with trash and useless clutter!

Guys even if you're in the sfw community you need to check the blog's DNI. I've had to nuke too many people with no age in their blog or even a pinned post.

Let's be clear: DO NOT interact if you are a MINOR. If you don't have your age upfront and present, you look like a minor even if you're an adult who just likes to lurk. I explode your blogs ON SIGHT.

Stop making me use my Explode You laser just because you can't be bothered to extend the same courtesy to check-before-interacting that a good chunk of you demand from the NSF/W community. I'm one of those people who enjoy it both ways. I don't want to expose literal children to my unhinged horny thoughts, and they shouldn't be scrolling through my sfw stuff either. Because then it wouldn't just be me they'd do that to. Multiple people in this community have been groomed and exploited as a kid by interacting with adults in a space like this - and now we must protect who comes after.

It's not exactly "French Maid," but it'll do. 🔥

One of the joys of going back through old AO3 bookmarks is discovering all that you missed the first time and not in a good way.

How much is TOO much?

Hey all,

I know I promised an update for my LEPacy, but I’ve been working on another project. I’m trying yet again to trim my Mods folder, currently at about 12GB. I was hoping some of you could tell me how big your mods folders are so I can compare 💗 All this cc cleaning = not playing as much and it’s making me consider somewhat (or mostly) vanilla, with defaults and only must-have items. But, the cc that’s out there is just so nice! On the other hand, with each pack there’s so many options already in-game.

tl;dr HALP PLS 😭

Amazing the things you find when cleaning out a house/unpack from moving. “Alley Cats Strike”. A Disney movie I recorded for my kid since he’d been a serious bowler for a while. Cute movie.

Challenge #03688-J035: Tidying to Do

A nation sends out a large, diplomatic, delegation to find Wraithvine, complete with white and gold carriage to bring him back to the kingdom. Why? The King wishes to make the kind elf the heir to his throne, for he has few family, and those he has, have proven to be too selfish for him to consider them for the placement. -- Anon Guest

[AN: This is extra fun because Wraithvine has no desire to be a monarch]

The first time King Theudebert invited Wraithvine into his lands, it was with a polite invitation and an armed escort to see hir safely there. The second time, the armed escort had to use a net and utmost secrecy because there was no telling who would let the eternal wizard free or risk their lives trying.

His Majesty really should have explained why he wanted Wraithvine to be heir first.

There was really one overreaching problem, as best explained by Wraithvine when ze said, "I would rather be cold and dead in the roots of a tree[1] than sitting on a throne with a crown on my head!"
