#fucking LOVE blueberry season y'all

[aesethewitch]

We went blueberry picking yesterday, so I've got an abundance of berries to use up! I don't love to eat them raw (texture problems, alas) but MAN do I love a blueberry treat. I'm thinking syrup first for lemonades, ice cream, and various treats. Then maybe drying some for trail mix and homemade granola bars. Oooo I could turn them into jelly and figure out how to make poptarts...

Tagged by @ohbutwheresyourheart! Last song: Wild Horses - Bishop Briggs

Favorite color: I was the red-coded kid all my life lmao and that's still true! But I also love purple, and very specific shades of green, like Phthalo green and seafoam. Phthalo green looks so good with copper/brass I am definitely not planning our future kitchen with these colors in mind.

Last movie / Tv show: okAY SO LIKE. We don't really watch tv series so much - we don't have cable so we mostly watch like. a handful of youtubers we enjoy. That being said!! The last movie I watched was Fargo a few weeks ago, because I remember my mom loving it and finding it so funny (and fucked up) because we lived in Wisconsin for several years and The Accent (tm). As for TV show I dunno if it counts but I watched five himbos watch Attack on Titan on youtube (Studio Gek) because I remembered that series and while I Do Not want to support it in any way, I was curious how it ended/the plot.

Sweet/spicy/savory: Why would you pit three bad bitches against each other like this. I GUESS Sweet, because I would gnaw through drywall to acquire, like, ice cream. Or cakes. Story time: growing up I wasn't allowed to have candies because my parents were so worried about my teeth, so I was ONLY allowed to have chocolate. And my parents never really were into cooking/baking and fruit didn't make it into my diet a lot as a kid (too poor in areas where fruit was VERY seasonal, or was very expensive bc import) and I am now discovering the joys of fruit + sweets. Y'all i love blueberries so fucking much?? lmao. I will say I do love spicy food as well, though. And savory. But like. As a pasty ass redhead I got teased in Colorado a lot for not having a spice tolerance so I decided Fuck That and consumed so much spicy food lmaoooo.

Relationship status: In a relationship for six years. Also mentally rotating several blorbos.

Last thing I googled: 'Chipotle' and I haven't the slightest idea why. OH I was trying to sign into my rewards account lmAO. Before that it was 'Celiacs Diet' because I am waiting on bloodwork to tell me if I have celiacs lmao. (I also have a ton of auto immune symptoms that we're trying to pinpoint and I'm like it's this or lupus or something.)

Current obsession: Y'all I am DEEP. into Undertale right now. Which is hilarious to me. Nothing like rolling up almost ten years late to a fandom. Specifically I am obsessed with Gaster - a character that may or may not exist and is pretty much 100% fandom speculation at this point. Next to that I'm always on some Devil May Cry shit.

Last book: Going to be complETELY HONEST with you here and admit very lamely that it's been a minute since I've read and actual physical book and not, y'know, fanfiction. I do have a list of things I want to read, including my copy of Gideon the Ninth that is sitting on the coffee table. I think I'm afraid to commit because I know I'm going to read it in one sitting and order the rest immediately after. The last book I really remember sitting down and reading (that isn't reptile medical journals) is probably Not Even Bones by Rebecca Schaeffer. I saw the webtoon advertised a lot, read it, became obsessed, and devoured both books 1 and 2 from Market of Monsters.

Looking forward to: Y'all I have no idea lmao. I really want to try and bleach my hair platinum. We finally got a clutch of ball python eggs on the ground, which is exciting, and we're going to maybe try and buy a house? Hopefully?? Maybe??? Also I am tagging @faridahmalik and @stephanweaverofworlds and @kebbige if any of you would like. No pressure! :)

My Marinette Multiships

I feel like crap and honestly don't know where my contacts are so forgive my writing but I realized I had said I am a multishipper for Mari but I never said what the ships were and that is a grave injustice!

First and foremost

Lukanette, yes it's my number one, I love it okay! It's my weaknesssssssss. My two little blueberries 💙 they just support each other and balance out each other so well!

Daminette, this one is no surprise I imagine XD there's so much potential there with the two universes and it's literally a crossover between two of my favorite fandoms. I've been a DC fan since diapers basically so it's fun to get to write my views on the universe!

Felinette, y'all this ship is cute as fuck! I don't get why people don't like it. Like they like to point out that Thomas basically said he was evil and a jerk and like...y'all still take Thomas seriously???? Lol like the dude said we would get a Chloe redemption and really just went "we thought she was redeemable, she wasn't." Like you wrote the character what do you meannnnnnnn???? This ship applies to PV Felix, Fanon Felix, and Canon Felix.

I haven't seen a specific ship name for it so I propose LoveBugs for Peter Parker x Marinette. Y'all they're two bug themed heroes and pure sunshines and I love them, they baby. I really gotta share my ideas and headcanons for them because I just realized I haven't and that is so sad.

Timinette, it's cute and as I have said before I am a sucker for the Maribat universe!

Kagaminette, hnnnnggggg my big dumb bi heart singssssssss for this ship. It's so cute!!! Like Kagami like, Marinette is my friend •~•, Marinette does something cute, Kagami....she will be my girlfriend hopefully. This is also a ship that balances out really well.

Mannynette, the fan character Manny, Poison Ivy's son and Marinette is cute as all heck. We love. Or well I love XD

Allegranette, I have read many a Quantic Kid fic but it is almost always a Felinette story which i love, but I think this could be an absolutely adorable ship!!!

Claudette, another Quantic Kid ship because I a weak ass hoe, you can't tell me they wouldn't be cute!

Ninette, Nino and Marinette is just such a soft ship like I love!!! So much flufffffffffff.

Wow my meds are kicking in so is that sweet sweet melatonin! Melatonin x Marinette, that girl needs some sleep!

Aurorenette, another cute one! I know they don't interact much but shhhhhhhhhh

Jonette, Jon Kent and Marinette us cute and the equivalent of puppies being overly cute.

Adrinette, I know it's low on the list, and I am still uber salty but this was one of my first ships and I love it, it will always have a place in my heart, but with the writing I would rather not have it than have to see it become a trainwreck or forced or whatever

I can't really think of any others or much of anything really. If you have some Marinette ships that you like please share!!! I will say I do not like Chlonette or Lilanette, mainly because I am just not comfortable writing a ship where one half was a bully to the other. I know others like these ships and I respect them but it's just not something I am comfortable writing. I have read an occasional fic for these ships and some are good and I'm okay with the ship mainly because those fics didn't make them the center of the whole fix but yeah! Also while I find Alyanette really cute I am super salty and would only be able to give angst for the ship. It was actually something I shipped season 1 but then the show went on and they made Alya more pushy and I've had friends like that, crushes too and it quickly turned not healthy for me so yee.

Anyways I think imma crash so night my loves I lubbbbbb you guys!!!! Imma catch some sleep and hopefully feel somewhat better tomorrow

Name 10 favourite characters from 10 different things (books, TV, film, etc) then tag 10 people 💕 

tagged by @jekkiefan (sorry this took so long!!!)

In no order:

1. Cyrano from Cyrano de Bergerac: honestly, do I need to say anything?? I'm pretty sure we're all well aware of my deep and intense love for this character; he's witty, courageous, a jerk, and a hopeless romantic who dooms himself to forever be a victim of unrequited love. One of my top dream roles. What more can you want?

2. Frank Castle from Netflix's The Punisher: I've seen the 2004 version, and I'm partway through season 1 on Netflix. I am an absolute sucker for angst, so the angst-ridden Punisher seeking to rid the world of evil men is a goldmine for me. I like that he acknowledges that what he does isn't right, and Jon Bernthal was absolutely the right choice.

3. Orpheus in Hadestown: He's just a boi who wants to write music and love his wife why must he suffer. Aside from being a dream role, I admire his optimism and both Damon Daunno and Reeve Carney bring things to the table that I absolutely ADORE. I love Daunno's slight arrogance and all-or-nothing, "if I can't have her back then literally cut off my hands and take my voice because I exist to make music for her " love for Eurydice, and I lover Carney's puppy dog innocence and his stubborn determination.

4. Garcia Flynn from Timeless: He's a chaotic dumbass with a heart of gold and a high kill count. I love his sarcasm, his hidden softness, and his absolute devotion to the job no matter the cost, not to mention his tragic backstory (sucker for angst, I'm tellin' 'ya). He's so awesome, and the Timeless writers did him SOOOO fucking DIRTY.

5. Iroh from Avatar: The Last Airbender: Iroh is the type of elderly person I aspire to be. Wise, tea-drinking, maybe a little crazy, and able to kick ass epically. He's a wonderful character and I adore him.

6. Eric Draven from the 1994 movie The Crow: He's a wonderful goth with a thirst for vengeance. He's super melodramatic, his backstory is tragic, and as soon as he gets his revenge he *insert spoilers*. He is literally my perfect vengeance arc. I love him, and I can't wait until I can get my hands on the comics that the movie was based on.

7. Gus from Psych: If you didn't like Gus, we can't be friends. Sorry, I don't make the rules. He's hilarious, he's loyal, he's incredibly intelligent, he's his own independent person away from Shawn, he's witty, and he named his car the blueberry. He's literally the perfect man.

8. Aristotle Mendoza from Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe: I have never related to a character and their way of seeing the world, and that is all I have to say on the subject. (No gif because it's a book)

9. Robert E. O. Speedwagon from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: I've barely started episode eight but Robert is already my favorite character. He just loves his bro Jonathan so much; I love how highly he speaks of him!!! Robert's the type of best friend I want to be!!!

10. Spongebob Squarepants from the TV show Spongebob Squarepants: I'm going to assume y'all read both of my short essays about Spongebob and how he's an epic hero that could beat Mickey Mouse in a fight, so nothing much needs to be said on this. I admire his optimism, enthusiasm, drive, and his loyalty. Love him. What an icon.

DEAN GETS A HUG

"aww u made a fwend" "uh uh" that was so cute"

this does feel like a sibling ending, finally

man I entirely forgot about hell and how that's supposed to be affecting Sam

1. fucking hell Garth actually helps. It makes the tone not as gruff all the time, and it makes it the lighter version that these new seasons need. He's great, I love him.

2. The non con was....asdfuoah'sduao. Like I see what they mean about Supernatural not really liking its own fanbase. They were needlessly cruel for no reason. Also for the horrible undertones the tone was too light.

3. As always concept: girl makes demon deal to get boy, boy turns out to be monster hunter, eventually taken away due to king of hell because he's cheating is Really GOod

and leslie odom jr makes a REALLY good crossroads demon.

4. sibling relationship at the end was adorable.

Chronically ill.

I'm having a day I can't pretend to be strong. Having a day of breakdown and tears streaming down my face. A day of depression, sadness, anger, self pitying, self hating and exhaustion. Why? Because of my chronic illness. I have IBD. I have ulcerative colitis. I also have a syndrome in which I am more likely to faint, get lightheaded and run out of breath more easily than others due to my blood pressure randomly dropping. Some days I can't even get out of bed due to everything spinning and I'm feeling nauseous. Like, it's REALLY bad. I can't MOVE an inch and I can't have my eyes OPEN if I want to feel somewhat okay. It takes me at least 3-4 hours before I can slightly move around while laying down and have my eyes open. Then my IBD. It's honestly tearing me apart. I don't even know where to begin with this disease. Probably started around 3 years ago. I got diagnosed last year when I was 18 years old. I've been destroyed mentally, physically, socially, emotionally by it. Several times over. Right now I'm refusing to be on any type of hospital medication even if I'm in the middle of having a flare up. Why am I doing that? Because I don't fully believe in the doctors ways anymore. They "treat" your symptoms - more accurately; they hide them. You get addicted to take the medication. They don't try (at least the vast majority of them) to go to the bottom of things what might have CAUSED it. They don't look at the individual. They see the symptoms, they see the medicine for the symptoms and they give it to us. Money, money, money. That's all it's about. I, however, am trying the natural way. I take some "medication" - all natural for us though. Special tea. Vitamins. Liver pills. Etc. and then I'm on an EXTREMELY strict diet. No gluten for a year. No dairy products. No garlic or onions of any kind. No sugar. No citrus fruits or veggies. No soy. The list goes on and on. I have the most boring ass diet. But, two weeks ago I can tell y'all that I haven't felt so normal in over 3 years. No pain, no blood, no gas or weird noises from my bowel, lots of ENERGY, and I was genuinely happy to actually feel normal. I had forgotten what it felt like. Now, though... I'm having a setback. And I need to rant about it. Short backstory though: I should not have either IBD or my syndrome concerning my blood pressure. They've been triggered by a vaccine I got 3-4 years ago. All my problems started after that. They didn't tell us that people that have an asthmatic parent, they're immune system aren't as strong against the side effects of the vaccine. And guess what? My dad is an asthmatic! And what are one of the things I've gotten? An autoimmune disease! Coincidence? I think the hell not. However, somehow, I've been blessed to have a partner that loves me and supports me and wants to be with me for the rest of his life. We met online and we've met and been together in real life as well. We've known each other for like 10 months and he's absolutely amazing and I love him. But I'm so afraid of holding him back in life due to my fucked up condition. I don't want to do that to him. I want him to be happy. But selfishly I also want him all to myself. Moving on, today I've been so sad. And I'm gonna just copy paste a rant I gave a friend of mine: Even if this setback is hella much smaller than what I've suffered from before, it didn't stop me from having a breakdown. Something I actually haven't had for a very long time But I couldn't stop it today. I've lost my energy, I just feel completely drained. I want to sleep, but can't. I wanna do so many things, but I can't. I blame my sickness but then I inevitably, like all other times, blame myself. I really hate this though. Like I've said so many times before. But I can't help but let all negativity slip back into my mind. I hate the fact that I'll never be normal. Ever. Hate that I've become a victim to a CHRONIC illness I shouldn't even have. It's CHRONIC. I'll never ever heal from it. I may think I do, I may work towards it and I may hope to be "the one that got cured from an incurable disease", but it'll never happen. I can never be fully cured. I can never be fully normal ever again. My life is bound and restricted to my illness. I have days, like this one, that I succumb to my dark thoughts. Become depressed, sad, angry, exhausted of the fight and just lay in my bed crying all day. Start hating myself for being weak. For being a crybaby. I'm in a constant battle between "no, I'm not gonna let this stupid shit control my life, I'm gonna live it to the fullest and do whatever I want" and "I just wanna give up the fight. Take all medication from the hospital, destroy my body further. Shut the world out and be done with it." I lose myself. Can't stop the tears from rolling down. I'm living in constant fear and tension. My body can fuck up at any time. It has done that soooo much in the past. Destroyed me inside and out. I hate myself. Being weak. Ugly. Negative. Scared. Not confident. Closed off. Not easy to like or get along with. Not funny. Not smart. Nothing, really. I don't even know what my fiancé sees in me. I've been so scared to get close to anyone, to let anyone in. There's been so many reasons for me to avoid a romantic relationship. Been reasons to keep everyone on a distance. Reasons no one will truly understand if they aren't in the same position as I am. But I love him more than anything and more than I've loved anyone else. We complement and complete each other but I can't help to feel that I should, in fact, push him away... I love him so much and I just want him to be truly happy and live his life to the fullest, exactly the way he wants it with no regrets. I feel like... like I'll only hold him back. I don't want him to have to be tied to me and my never ending problems, the restrictions on my life. I don't want him to miss out on anything... on all the things that someone else could give to him. I don't want him to ever have to regret anything due to me holding him back. He's beyond amazing and supportive of my situation, but I cant help but think about all of this. He's the only one I can see myself loving for the rest of my life,and ofc he loves me too and feels the same in that way cuz otherwise he would've never proposed to me but... if he could be happier with someone else... I don't want him to miss out on it. That's how much I love him. I'd be prepared to let him go, even if my whole body and mind screams the opposite and it'll tear me apart every single day and be worse of a pain than anything else I've ever been through - I'd let him go if it meant for him to be the happiest he could possibly be I can't stop thinking about it. Can't stop thinking that maybe I'm just being selfish... I don't know. I feel like I don't know anything anymore. One wrong step and it all comes back like a slap to the face with a brick. That's what has happened. I've felt great, better than I've felt for over THREE FREAKING YEARS, took one wrong step and now I'm bleeding and in pain again I'm so goddamn sick of this So sick of wanting to actually fight it and live life but as soon as I stand up everything goes black. Or I'm in so much pain I can't even get out of bed. This sucks so much. *** Also, my setback is due to me trying eating chicken again and my body reacting to it. Since I've been stable for almost a month with no bleeding or pain in trying to expand my diet, which didn't work too well this time. My current diet consists of this: Oatmeal with oat milk. Sweet potatoes, normal potatoes (need to be boiled and then used the day after) Mango, bananas, pears, watermelon, blueberries, raspberries, avocado Parsley Salmon, white fish Asparagus, carrots (needs to be cooked so they soften up and are easy for the digestive system) Almond milk Max 3 eggs every other day and they have to be runny Maple syrup, honey "Clean herbs" - I have to season everything myself cuz I need to know EXACTLY what's in my food. Everything needs to be organic and of good quality. The only dairy product I'm allowed to use is real organic butter. Olive oil in only allowed to use cold and drizzle on top of things. So yeah. I get really depressed about the insane restrictions on my food, too. Can never go out and enjoy restaurants and probably never will be able to either... there's so much more I want to say and rant about but this is long enough. If anyone would ever read it all.... thank you for hearing me out.

The ‘Me in My State’ meme is too relatable

We all hate to love and love to hate our home state.

State pride is something we can all relate to — except when you're actually home.

As millions of people traveled back home for Thanksgiving, people started to get real nostalgic for their home state. A far-too-relatable trend began, and eventually people of the United States realized that we all hate to love and love to hate our home state.

Here’s a little bit of hometown pride from all 50 states.

Alabama: 

Me in Alabama: fuck bama

Me anywhere else: Alabama, land of the sweetest tea and brisket crafted by Saban's angels. Such a breathtaking countryside view, you can hear "roll tide" be whispered by the gods & banjos coming from up above.Sweet home, Alabama. Sweet home(sheds tear) https://t.co/pxErVuw5Lq
