offering to cook the fucking mushrooms is not a personal attack. i'm trying to save you time and effort. also im trying to avoid a soggy, bland mess

My college best friend who's been increasingly distant since I came out in 2020 has apparently told my queerphobic mom that she's coming to visit my family over the holidays. She hasn't said as much to me. I've missed her so much but I've also been hurt ever since she wasn't there for me at all the last time my life went to hell. She also quietly untagged herself the last time I tried to reach out to her on social media. I've kind of had to accept that our friendship as it was has been over for a while. The only time I heard from her this year was when she called on her birthday to tell me some crazy stories but when the call dropped she couldn't be bothered to call back. She never answers my calls. Just heard today that she deadnamed me in a text to my mom, so that sucks. I've suspected for a while that she cared more about keeping my mom than me. Good for them I guess. They deserve each other. I don't know what to do. I'm not mad. If she showed up tomorrow I'd be happy to see her. But it's not like we're real friends anymore. I've mourned that a few times but it is what it is. You can't hold on to people who've moved on.

Borrowed Hearts (1997) - review

Reviewed by Litewriter Borrowed Hearts (1997) is a darling little Holiday Drama great for the whole family to watch or just enjoy it yourself. It was written by TED KOTCHEFF and directed by PAMELA WALLACE and EARL W. WALLACE. The main cast starred SARAH ROSEN FRUITMAN as little Zoey Russell, actresses ROMA DOWNEY as Kathleen Russell (Zoey’s mother), KEVIN HICKS as Jerry Russell which is Zoey’s…

I quite possibly had one of the worst Christmas dinners ever in my family.

2023 y'all. Great way to end the year, watching your family fall apart.

Me, seeking solace from holiday drama, wandering into what I think is the empty living room- "Finally, some space to think!"

Me, seeing my chatty uncle sitting in the corner lounge chair- "Oh, no.... that's a conversation just waiting to happen..."

*heads back into the dining room where everyone's too busy to talk to me*

I just think a holiday romcom movie starring these four would heal me a bit

Long shot, but request drawing of Susie and Noelle comforting Kris? Kris is just trauma central nowadays (most AUs anyway), needs all the hugs.

They DO need a big ol' round of comfort hugs from their friends, for sure!

characters that get sick and hide it, the way wild animals hide all signs of weakness to avoid becoming a target. they take efforts to look normal and healthy until something finally snaps, a fever spikes, the sleepless nights of coughing and feeling like death catch up to them.

characters that get sick and make a huge fuss about it, wallowing in heaps of blankets and being pathetic while their friends humour this behavior and dote on them.

characters that go from the first to the second. they used to have to hide any sign of weakness to survive, but now they're in a safer environment and they realized that their new friends would shower them in attention and comfort if they were sick. now they make up for lost time, and their friends, aware of how they used to be, are all happy to indulge them.
