just kill me
#this whole article is bad but this was the WORST#not even for the reason you think (819 reasons)#Eliza you've already heard this rant but#if I can be way too sincere and long-winded for a moment#'always if I ask him something he helps'#how many quotes do we have from teammates over the years saying that exact thing#michael latta saying 'it doesn't matter if you're a top pair dman or a 4th line peasant; he'll do anything to help you'#christian djoos saying 'he's always there for you no matter what time or place. if something's up he's always there'#HHA saying recently nicke gave him his number and told him 'if you need anything just call me and I can help you'#carly in that interview when this was announced saying how nicke has been the support for everyone in that locker room from himself and osh#to guys who haven't been there long like strome and even pacioretty#I know holts and batya and andre and rasmus and jojo and tj and tom and karl alzner have all said stuff like this too#and that's just who I can think of off the top of my head#like. that's it. that's nicke.#if you ask him something. he helps.#for such an amazing athlete. for such a crucial part of making hockey A Thing in DC.#what his teammates want to talk about is his kindness#and that speaks so highly of him and is so genuinely admirable to me and worth aspiring to#I don't want to put anyone on a pedestal because we don't know these guys#but like. in terms of impact. nicke really genuinely made me try to be a better more thoughtful more actively outreaching friend#because I saw the way his teammates talked about him and that's how I want to be thought of.#I want people to know I'll be there for them. & not that I haven't been willing to do that but I've been more active about offering it#and part of that genuinely is because of his example#there's a million other things about his kindness I could mention before I even get to his hockey but this has already gone on far too long#so anyway#he is so dear to me#I hope he is happy and healthy#and that he knows how loved he is#nicklas backstrom#hockey

my research partner and i are huddled in a blanket in paddington waiting for a too-late train i already miss you and you and you
#he keeps falling asleep almost on my shoulder and waking up and readjusting but i want to tell him its ok weve seen a lot#of each other ive seen your brainwaves you called me crying a few nights ago. research partner right now is a potentiality#friend is a certainty. i met a banker passionate about finance. he said his advice made the lives of others better and he likes the numbers#more than he likes anything else. on a high rise near canary wharf the view was wonderful and the people even moreso#he said i loved her but i spent 33 grand on her and i cant do this anymore. his voice cracked talking about her. he did love her.#and she talked softly she grabbed my hand she bought me a pack of Marlborough gold she told me to snap#the russian menthol cigarettes of the tortured polish man near us with my teeth i kept staring at her teeth#bright white and sharp. i couldnt find her heartbeat but i did find warmth and i did find her lips and i did feel#how she felt pressed against a wall. a pretty boy held my hand and i gave him my number. i couldnt stop smiling about her no matter#how many runways youve walked on how many collections youve designed how many students youve taught. senior lecturer teaches me how to do#very unethical things ethically over a double shot of vodka made by the half-persian with broken farsi. she talks softly#and she says her eyes are hazel but they appear a shade of red. pure gold on her hands and leather on her back and her fingers on my lips#(she talks softly sees through me she says something i cant hear but i wont forget the way she flies) she talked to my research partner#about the possibility of moving to sunny dubai with the rest of her family and my heart felt pierced. on her arm i traces a tattoo of a#knife passing through a rose. she told me she thought there was romance in severing so i kissed her some more.#he sat me down and asked me what i loved and i told him and he said no romance no person no tragedy will take that from you.#the room was filled with a collection of people in love with something that wasnt a person and i kept looking at her.#red eyes bitten jawline beautiful hands. it is 3 degrees Celsius my head is on his shoulder i miss my friends#we walked out the lecture hall with arms linked a photo of two years ago and we both said#jesus christ. i miss you all. and i miss logic metatheory lectures. im glad i get to stare at the depth of your eyes#i wish i had met you years ago.#crushposting

We met waiting for the train. And when it went astray, You asked if I'd seen it pass. I said I thought it was delayed.
Apparently that's all it took, To strike up a conversation. The world seems less lonely. What luck, I was at the station.
#writerscreed#spilled ink#dark academia#original poem#original poetry#my poetry#poets on tumblr#my poem#writers and poets#poetry#poem#writers on tumblr#female writers#writerscommunity#short poem#poems and poetry#poems on tumblr#words words words#what's this?! a poem about my life??#directly inspired by real life events#met a lovely woman at the train station on thursday evening#our train was delayed by 25 minutes - she asked if she'd missed it#we started chatting#continued to chat once we were on the train!!#and right before she left (she gets off the stop before mine)#she asked if i had whatsapp#gave me her number#and said we should stay in touch!!#besties im screaming#did i just make a friend right out in the wild??

dude, i met another trans guy on the bird walk today and we were chatting and lowkey flirting and it was so much fun and i wanted to give him my number, but i gave him my WORK EMAIL email instead. 🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼
#on a scale of 0-10 how unprofessional would it be to give him my number via my work email?#tbf i gave him my work email because he said he might be interested in our volunteer nest box monitoring program#and all our nest box monitors have my personal phone number#so it wouldn’t be the WEIRDEST thing…#crossing all fingers and toes that he emails me lmaooooooo#if not HOW did i fumble not only a trans friend but a TRANS BIRDER FRIEND?????!!!!!!!#a tragedy…

after spending the last week very stressed out and losing sleep over how much i regretted giving my number to a stranger, and after talking to several friends who all gave me the same very wise advice ("decide first what YOU want out of this and make decisions based on that" sounds obvious now but honestly blew my mind), i saw food truck man again today and he asked me if i have a boyfriend, told me he's all alone, hugged me twice, and tried to kiss me. i texted him after to be like just to be clear, i don't want a boyfriend, but i hope you find somebody! and he texted me back: i don't need a girlfriend. i'm married.
#AHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA#i was actually so upset after he tried to kiss me. technically he did kiss me but not on the mouth because i would not turn my head lol#but i was like you know what i am an adult and i am going to be soooo mature right now. watch how mature i can be#and sent him this text#and then got that response and honestly now i feel a lot better about everything?? for some reason#i am not really understanding all of my reactions to this situation i need some time to process#but ultimately i have learned some new things about myself (or i probably will once i have processed lol)#and i'm actually quite proud of that text because i could have psyched myself out too much to send it#which i think would have just made me continue to be stressed about this#but i didn't!! i wrote it and i sent it and i didn't overthink it. yay me#sorry 2 everyone who wanted me to have a sexy time but it turns out i did not want to have a sexy time!#and i decided to take some advice that i should only do things i want to do <3 thank you to all my wise friends#it is a work in progress because he asked if he could hug me and i didn't really want to do that but i said okay#baby steps! working on it!#i feel insane though because i usually have a much easier time saying no than most people i know#so i don't know what's happening. it's because i gave him my number. i felt like by doing that i had consented to other things#but i hadn't. and even if i had i can withdraw consent at any time. yes. i do know this

at church reading the hymn lyrics like "hey i learned that word from genshin!" and "hey i learned that word from genshin!" and "hey i learned that word from translating song lyrics so that i could write genshin fic!" and "hey i learned that word from genshin!" and finally "omg i learned that word from the king's avatar"
#花話#it's funny bc i Objectively know more cn than the last time i was here seven years ago which is great#bc the last time i learned any cn in a classroom was seven years ago lol#and i think that's probably a combination of Very Much Not Wanting To Lose What Skills I Have +gnshn n similar giving me occasional practice#but yeah of the words i Remember where i learned them it's like 85% gnshn 14% lyric translation n 1% king's avatar lmao#been trying to connect my laptop to the mobile hotspot i have here and Suffering(tm)... pain and agonie#i mentioned this on main but apparently i just Cannot have a line acct for w/e reason#(i suspect it's bc i made an acct in america on my phone number but temp sim card --> diff phone number here)#(and since i didn't expect this i didn't tie the acct to an email --> i am unable to have line)#however my mother and i have graduated past emails and are now just using regular texting to communicate it seems#ANYWAY i get to see the jade cabbage today. i hope. and other things i also hope!!#i was going somewhere w/the line thing OH it's bc on the way home from church my mom saw a sign that said 元氣 and was like 'genki desu!'#it is always kind of a surprise to hear my mom speak jp bc it sounds simultaneously clumsy and full of confidence#she has friends in japan (college roommate + old pen pal + i have no idea she's lived Quite a life i feel) n i once found her old letters#and was kind of surprised bc they were like entirely in jp so obviously she could read n understand a lot#but anyway my mom went on to talk abt how taiwan continues to have significant japanese influence to this day n i was like yes... weebs c':#it's also interesting bc we'll go sightseeing n she'll be like “ye that's from american/jp occupation times but they gave back the land'#'so now it's xyz' n i'll be like. almost 'tails.jpg A Colonialism.'

well I just spent an hour digging through my own dnd notes and social media and also almost cried because I mentioned, in passing, something justin had said about one of his NPCs and he, completely lightheartedly, was like '?? I don't remember that at all. [I mean I'm not making it up?] I think you might be making it up 😏'
#me-- instantly stressed and near tears: I know you're joking and it's not even important but. that isn't funny. to me.#I really wish there was a term for 'gaslighting but they're not doing it on purpose'#this is distinct from simply 'being wrong' because 'that's definitely not what happened 🤨' is a key part of it#the other person trying to convince me that I'm wrong and I must be crazy-- not for manipulation purposes but because THEY forgot#and are MUCH more confident in the possibility that I'm completely full of shit than that they maybe can't remember exactly#this is an extraordinarily specific thing that nonetheless happens to me ASTONISHINGLY OFTEN.#I mean clearly often enough that I'm now hair-trigger sensitive upset about it#AND TO CLARIFY QUICKLY-- that's not what justin even did (this time) but 'well I don't remember that' is still...#OKAY WELL I DO. WHY DOESN'T ANYONE EVER BELIEVE ME.#trembling and crying searching for Receipts while explaining to my husband that it's not even that I don't think he believes me (this time)#I just. I just. I just. I'm not fucking crazy. I know you don't think I'm crazy. but I still feel like I Have to prove it.#my mom sending a package to the wrong address and then saying-- confidently and irritably-- 'you never GAVE me a unit number'#when I can scroll back up through texts to where I sent her our new address when we moved and it was complete and correct#my friend during our big stupid fight saying 'no one actually AGREED to that [dnd] plan except you and justin 😒'#going back into my audio recording to that conversation where everyone BUT him agreed#including his fucking pick-me 'yeah jay's being shitty right now' brother whose character said 'this sounds like a good plan' verbatim#like. I KNOW it's not just 'my memory vs theirs and we both assume we're right'#because SO OFTEN when this happens I have FUCKING RECEIPTS. that I'M NOT WRONG OR CRAZY.#no one ever wants to entertain the notion that I might know what I'm talking about.#I can't stress enough that I'm not mad at justin right now he was very much 'no I believe you! it's weird that I don't remember though'#which is fair! honestly! but I'm a LITTLE. sensitive. of the fact that everyone always ALWAYS automatically assumes I'm incorrect#and very often in a way that's a mark against my competence or character.#'well *I* couldn't *possibly* have gotten the address wrong so YOU must have fucked it up'#you know. it's like that. it's like that a lot.#maybe this only happens to me so much because I happen to be cursed with remembering things better than most people#or maybe I'm uniquely viewed as incompetent. who can say.#about me

Another day foaming at the mouth thinking about richard siken's Wishbone poem
#long story short#my teenage-hood bestfriend tried to do the worst comeback ever#and forcing himself into my life#when all ive ever asked#is that he stops forcing me#shit is a whole soap opera#with side characters#i pretended to be a dutch person for a while#so he thought he had the wrong number#...it worked#even worse the guy who gave him my number#thats fucking reprochable#and then i spoke with a friend#and she said how differently this thing couldve been handled#if he just did not start his first message with#(first in 3 years of no contact)#with “i hate you i hate you i hate you”#i held so much love and compassion for him in the past#but he keps demanding for me to be someone i am not#he wants from me things i do not want to and cannot give#i will never be able to love you romantically#i am a lesbian#and he has never forgiven that#he just#kept threading over it#and now i am a monster because i dont want him in my life#but he wants me to be someone tamed and obedient to his desires#which i cannot be#no person can ever be#i hope he learns that

So assuming that Percy is the only engine in The Fat Controller's fleet to be named by the man himself (You could probably make an argument that Thomas and maybe Edward were too, but Percy's the only one that we canonically know for sure), do you ever wonder if he got puffed up about how he was probably the favorite because of it?
Like, I can so clearly see the engines talking about where they got their names - either because Gordon was talking about his family or someone asked BoCo where he got his name from - and Percy's just like "The Fat Controller named me! Didn't he name you all, too?"
And upon finding out that that's something unique to him, he'd parade around the yard like he owns the place, only to get into trouble and eat shit not long after.
#ttte#ttte percy#thomas and friends#roller's ramblings#i've been running through all the engines as i type this to make sure#toby duck and oliver had their names (and nickname in duck's case) prior to coming to sodor#we never saw engines 1-5 when they first arrived so we don't know how they got their names#donald and douglas gave themselves names after 'losing' their numbers#the books specify that *thomas* gave annie and clarabel their names#tfc *probably* named the coffeepots but we never see them in the books#and i can't remember if tfc said he named glynn in the tvs#only that he built him#the tvs original characters all arrived with names#i *think* the other engines named bear?#i'm still in the dalby era of the books so don't quote me on that

outdoor cats are terrifying because how do I know if this skittish little cat in my bushes that I've never seen before has escaped his house or if he's new to the neighborhood and he's allowed to roam around 😭
#if your cat has to go outside please give it a collar with your phone number#last time an unfamilar cat was outside my house i called the number on his collar#and the owners said they didnt even know he'd escaped and came to pick him up#but this one doesn't seem to have a collar (and is also much more skittish than the last one)#i gave him some tuna to try to coax him out and it wasn’t working so i just pushed it further into the bushes and he ate it#i don't think hes gonna come out but hopefully ive established myself as his friend#and one day if he keeps coming back he will let me pet him :')

if I turn off reblogs I always make sure to turn off the option that lets others blaze it (lol) too because although it's EXTREMELY UNLIKELY (this is a very irrational thought) part of me is paranoid that if I don't, some petty ass fucker is gonna pay real money to broadcast my dumb posts just to spite me.
#at that point youd have to be obsessed but like.#knowing the shit i get myself into who the fuck knows if i have or will get a stalker one day#the closest ive come to having a stalker (that i know of....) is#when this girl i had a crush on (who had blocked me btw and told me to never contact her again lmfao) sent some dumbass friend of hers#to befriend me on discord and idk... make some shitty attempt at trolling me (that was really dumb and unfunny btw) ???#we didnt share servers or even mutual friends at all and i did not recognize his username#so i was like. interrogating him like Who the fuck are you and WHO gave you my username..... this was back when dicksword had the#discriminator numbers after the username like hashtag 0123 or whatever. and my username had an accented letter(á) in it. ok now these#tidbits are very relevant because you needed to have someones exact username to even be able to add someone without having mutual friends#or being in a server with them. idk why im explaining all this ig for the 2 people that havent used discord ever#but anyway. yeah he said 'durrrr i jsut looked it up and found it randomly' like yeah no. dont buy it. i may be dumb but im not stupid#i SUSPECTED it was that girl (former crush) . nagging feeling. but i brushed it off as a kind of wishful thinking 'i just want to feel like#she cares/d ig' but uh. yeah her stupid fuck friend made a fatal mistake (no like seriously how fucking dumb are you. you udnerestimate me)#and that was leaving his other accs linked to his profile. not using a burner acc. i fuckin did some digging through his linked sites and#looked up his usernames and etc. and i was able to trace it back to her pretty easily lmfaoooooo like dude you forget im way smarter than u#anyway uhhh yeah if you read all of that ily<3

5??? well I guess I must give you 5 songs!!!!!
You're just a copycat, but no one's buying that / Up on the discount rack, right at the back of TJ Maxx -- "Honey" by Kesha
I could cut a thousand roses / Show you that I'm all torn up inside -- "Go Find Yourself or Whatever" by Carly Rae Jepsen
You're a winter bitch but summer's in your blood / You can't help but become the sun -- "True Blue" by boygenius
Do you really want to know where I was April 29th? / Do I really have to tell you how he brought me back to life? -- "High Infidelity" by tswift
I miss it high / How it dulled the error and the beauty / And now I see everything in startling intensity -- "Faith Healer" by Julien Baker
put a "∞" in my ask box and I'll shuffle my music player and give you my favorite lyric from the song that comes up.
#gfyow is carly's joni track on her upbeat pop album#like the rest of it is so bubbly and this is like her laurel canyon number i adore it#so much of true blue is like 'she's singing about me!' born in the summer of 95 that's MEEEEEEEE#spotify on repeat knew it was you jo so it gave me high infidelity#i gave my big brother an lp of little oblivions for xmas bc i know he loves julien but I didn't really know her outside of boygenius#and then i checked out both her albums and now i can't stop listening they are DEVASTATING#also i think i want to marry her#started listening to julien baker and my gay quotient went up like a thousand#jo since i am now rambling in these tags and bc you get me i'll tell you#my best friend who is also a boygenius girl (and a swiftie) texted me the other day like#'i want to gatekeep boygenius from these swiftie tiktokkers'#and while we've both discussed at length the concept of gatekeeping and are largely against i was like 'i get it'#and i said#that it is because#boygenius could do bad blood but taylor could never do me and my dog#and boygenius could do cruel summer but taylor could never do salt in the wound#and I'm RIGHT#annyways#i love you i love sharing music with you xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo#✨song recs✨
