Okay so it turns out this is just gencest lmao

for me it’s not really about the sex. it’s about the smiles and the laughter the unshed tears in their eyes the white knuckle gripping of each other bc they’re all that they have left and they’re the only ones who can possibly understand each other. it’s about their lives being more intertwined than any two people’s have any right to be, it’s about how they want and they want and they want, but they don’t know exactly what they want from each other, not really, they just know they want to be close (need to be close), side by side, they don’t even need to be touching necessarily, though they do, just have the reassurance that they could if they needed to, it’s their inescapable codependency with each other, it’s the long searching gazes, it’s the silent don’t leave me don’t leave me in the clench of a jaw, stuffed down and unsaid because it’s something that can’t be said, not with them, it’s the looking away when the feelings of love-ache-want become too overwhelming and threaten to bubble up out of their chest and spill out all over the inside of their stupid car, it’s about losing their minds whenever the other is threatened and throwing all their principles and morality to the wayside until they’re safe and together again, it’s about knowing each other in the small things it’s about doing anything for each other in the big things, it’s about there ain’t no me if there ain’t no you, it’s about dying for each other over and over, it’s about their lives being empty without the other even when everything else about their life is better, it’s about dean and sam and sam and dean and all that they mean to each other. and yeah. sometimes it’s also about the sex

Just wanted to stop by and let you know that I was thinking of you and sincerely hope life is being kind ❤️

I’ve read a few Irondad fics lately that have been so well articulated and beautifully written, and they’ve reminded me of your stories. But your work will always be the GOAT to me. Everything else I read is always compared to your version of the MCU, because that’s canon in my opinion.

I secretly love that your stories keep going, that Identity Within is still a WOP, because parting with a finished story when you reach the end… a story that you’ve grown to love and formed a bond with… it’s really hard to say goodbye. It feels a little like grief if I’m being honest.

I’ve lived in the joy of knowing that there’s no permanent end (yet) to the Identity Series for years now, and I’m actually really grateful that I haven’t had to read an ending or experience that final farewell.

I just wanted you to know that your work is so appreciated, and while I’m sure it weighs on you sometimes that the updates take a while and the series has been ongoing for a few years, it actually brings me so much comfort ❤️ You deserve to know that you make that difference for someone.

Life is being....SOMETHING to me 😅😫😩So when I say that this message rejuvenated the very essence of my soul, I truly mean it ❤️❤️❤️

I've had some very rough nights recently, thanks to the wonders of ₊˚ʚ ᗢ₊˚✧ ﾟ stress ₊˚ʚ ᗢ₊˚✧ ﾟI've got front row tickets to the "when it rains, it pours" show, and to add onto that, I started a whole new career where I'm *running a freaking business.* Yeah, sleep doesn't really happen as often as it should for me.

And because I'm still trying to sleep, I don't keep my mind operating at such a capacity that I could do anything worthwhile other than watch Tiktoks re-read through my series for shits and giggles, because I wrote it having wanted to read these things, and now I can go back and have fun reading the story that was once all jammed packed into my head. And in doing this, I tend to remember comments that made my entire day, month, year, and so I go into my inbox and just....I just read all the comments, over and over again, with such a profound, appreciative, ecstatic, blessed feeling in my heart.

The love that everyone has had for this series is what makes me still so deep in love with it today. And hearing that from people like you, who are so kind to take a minute of your time and express these things as if it were your first time ever reading the story...god, a girl couldn't be anymore lucky. Truly, #hashtag blessed.

My free time is far and few inbewteen these days (why did I decide to go run a freaking business 😳) but I promise you, no job will ever take this series away from me. I'm far too excited for everything that's yet to come, still to be written, and needs to be told, that I'll never leave this piece unfinished. Knowing that the pace it's taken isn't something that bother people does ease my nerves and calm me a bit, and I thank you so very much for expressing that and all the love alongside with it.

Chapter 9, Bachelor Party, is one BEAST of a chapter that's nearing closer and closer to finished every day. I hope for an update within the month or two. It contains a whooping 17 characters in a single scene, with character interactions we damn right deserved in the MCU. 2/3rds of the way done and and I think my inability to control the word count says enough about what to expect.

These characters have gone through far too much to rush through chapters now. In fact, the more things go on, the richer things get -- and to know amazing people like you are along for the ride...that's just so dam nifty. ❤️❤️❤️

I’m flattered by the asks I’ve been receiving these last few days. And I love that it started happening during the Aquarius Moon this month, as my North Node is Aquarius, and I’m definitely looking to move more in a direction of supporting community however I can.

Fun fact though: I’m actually more of an astrology teacher than I am a chart reader. I do continue to welcome asks on different kinds of charts, from natal, to different types of transit charts, to synastry (solar returns aren’t even my specialty!). And the best questions for me are more specific ones. Especially if I’m gonna be having asks coming in more frequently and might not have time to devote to a mini analysis for a whole chart.

However, I believe that the most fulfilling way for me personally to support community when it comes to the astrological community, is to teach. For me, astrology has been a personal tool that I’m so grateful I learned for myself and can apply to my own spiritual journey. I believe this is a big part of why astrology has been spiritually healing for me, whereas most healing practices or insights that were delivered by a practitioner (particularly 6th house practitioners part of the mainstream medical system) were harmful or just not helpful.

I love the idea of assisting people one on one to a place in their astrology education where they feel confident enough about both knowing the information, and being in relationship with the Universe, that they can produce their own astrological insights in the context of experiences in their own lives. I do have a small amount of experience with teaching, as around a year ago, I gained a couple students from Twitter that I was giving weekly or every couple weekly one-one-one lessons via webcam to. (And I’ve taught a friend irl fairly in depth.) I think my students have had fun with me because it’s been a little bit like having a personal astrologer for them to keep coming back to… but my objective is to show them the process in how I reach the insights, and how they can start to reach insights by themselves.

Anyway, I’m starting to think it’s time to “open up the books” again with my astrology teaching. 💡 This is something I did free of charge with my first go around, as money is not in any way my motivation with this pursuit. An energetic exchange is important though, so doing this in the future, my policy is that I’d be willing to discuss whatever budget is realistic for someone, and also willing to discuss a trade if you sell any of your own services of products.

This isn’t yet my official advertisement and I’m not yet officially opening the books. Life feels quite chaotic (even though I feel blessed for my current spiritual mindset), so I’m going to need to wait at least until after this upcoming eclipse to put any teaching endeavors forward into motion again. And still at that point, I envision that I’ll only take on two students at a time, and might need a waitlist, as I’m feeling behind in other areas of my life, and it is really important for me to have the time and energy to give my best to anyone I’m teaching.

I’m intentionally not putting any hashtags on this post because my followers are people who already naturally saw something in me that resonated with them, without getting a reward for it, so y’all deserve to be the ones aware of this upcoming chance. If any of you find yourselves with questions about this or already find yourself thinking this is something you’d like to do, please let me know here as it will help me to assess my specific goals and plans moving forward with teaching again.

Cheers 🌞

Blessed birthday to the heart of our family — who loves us unconditionally! Mom with great admiration, we must say you are godly, patient, humble, forgiving and a giver. A wonderful wife, a generous granny, a loving mother-in-law and the best mom ever. No one compares to you.

We can always count on you to lift us when we’re low and encourage us to keep going at our heights. We’ve always admired your out-of-this-world beauty, but most importantly your kindness. That still rings true. You are a woman who gives the best to others. We’re proud that you are our mother. If I’m even half the woman you are, I’ll be grateful.

Every day spent with you is a blessing. May the Lord bless the work of your hands and award you with what you hoped for. We pray you will age gracefully and for you to live longer and see more goodness of God in your life. With your prayers and support our life is better than we ever thought.

Mental Health Track 034 I’ve rarely felt so grateful for scraping seven hours sleep out of this gritty meat husk and into the deep dark pool of unconsciousness. They do say we should reflect on gratitude and consider those things for which we are happy (I’m not doing the “blessed” hashtag), and while I did wake up with my alarm feeling pathetically grateful for not having been present in the world for most of the night I’m not certain who or what I’m expressing gratitude toward. This feels more like a fight with myself, which only threatens a greater sense of dualism, whether it’s between mind and body or a range of shadow selves hiding behind each other in this skin suit. I suppose that’s why I’m so annoyed, vexed and stressed about not getting enough sleep – I’m pretty damn sure I’m doing this to myself. While I’m fully aware that my mind is definitely a part of my body ­– even if it’s just some supervening cloud of sparks ... >> Read On with Mental https://wp.me/pbprdx-911

Relishing the Quiet Moments

My Husband Rocks!

I’m so grateful for my husband. If it weren’t for him, raising my little son would be so much more difficult.

I was really able to appreciate the partnership we have today. He was busy cleaning up our place after the holiday frenzy.

We were quite a team and Daddy was the MVP. I cooked breakfast and he fed our hangry son. I did the dishes; he took care of some laundry. I sat down to nurse our son, he vacuumed the living room. Then our lil’ dino decided he wanted to help Daddy vacuum. He waddled over to him, humming the pitch of the vacuum (hilarious!), and my husband picked him up and kept about the task.

Coffee or Bust

At this moment, I could have finished the dishes, or dusted, or cleaned bathrooms (all on today’s list), but I didn’t. Instead I longingly set my gaze on my still hot cup of coffee. Usually, I get my coffee going and sneak a couple sips in while I’m spooning oatmeal into my son’s mouth. Then he finishes eating and it’s not too much time before he’s ready for a nap. By the time I get him settled, and go back to my coffee, it’s cold. Sometimes I microwave it, or top it off, but there’s just something about the first, fresh cup that’s better than all the others.

With my husband rocking all the house chores (without even realizing the night before I had written out in a list everything he was doing and it was blessing my socks off!), I didn’t want to just sit down and drink my coffee. That was just too unproductive, (though he would have let me do it).

Then with angelic voices singing in my head, an idea struck me. I need a shower…badly. So I meandered on over towards our bedroom, grabbing my steaming coffee mug off the table as I passed.

Needless to say I thought I was brilliant! I even thought about lighting a candle, but decided not to push this too far up the expectation scale. I mean, what are the chances I’ll get to shower uninterrupted? Just the other day, I had to end my shower prematurely with one leg half shaved and the other…well, not.

This is the Life

I turned the water on HOT, and set my mug on the ledge, and just stood there and relished in the quiet moment I was blessed with.

Thank you, Lord, for this peaceful moment.

Guess what happened then? Nothing! I was able to enjoy my shower, and my coffee, AND get dressed (completely shocking, that one) without interruption. What a refreshing event. Now, I’m ready for anything! Including the massively poopy diaper 5 minutes later. But hey, that was going to happen with or without a shower…or coffee…or clothes… 😉

“You gave abundant showers, O God; you refreshed your weary inheritance.” Psalm 68:8 NIV

What about you?

What has your spouse done to bless your socks off? What can you do to be a blessing in return?

     Steve jumps like he’s been caught doing something private even if it’s just a sketchpad clutched press tight. It’s intimate, for his eyes only, so he shoves it down under the comforters as if that’s Homelander’s one goal. And he wouldn’t exactly say day ruined, it already has been, but it brings back that unfamiliar and nerve wracking buzzing in his veins that makes him want to move. Do anything but this.

     Still he forces recovery, lips twitching disingenuously into a smile. He’s trying to hold it as he opens the window to its fullest to let the man…in. This too offsets his comfort into something vaguely violated but he shakes it off. It’s just a…friend…coming to see him.

     Half eyeing the peace offering, he heaves a breath and gestures for the man to have a seat wherever he likes.

     “No…no- I was just… yea I’m fine. Sorry about before I..” He’s had time to think about it. Really think about it. Gun in his face, history of violent behavior, reckless endangerment, murder… He understood the need for what happened but the execut- the uh… It was a bad choice all around. He just happened to be in the wrong place, right time.

     “I appreciate it. You saved my life.” May be an overstatement, they’ll never know. “Really, I’m grateful you were there.”

What’s that halfway-through-the-cookie-jar look doing on your face, Steven? You weren’t thinking of jerking off, were you?

  “Please, it’s,” he swats a non-existent fly. “You would’ve done the same for me.”

He glides over to the kitchen island like he’s thought about it before, grabbing a stool. He tiptoes another one out for Steve to sit on.

Brothers in arms share a kinship like no other. A bond that transcends the umbilical or mate selection. Codependency, on-edginess, a whole lot of PMS-ing.

Trust him, he knows. He’s dated Maeve.

And who’s Robocop in that drawing over there?

  “I was getting ready for this Candace Owens interview tomorrow—and I know what you’re gonna say, fucking Republicans, but my PR team handles that stuff.”

Bit of a Victoria Neuman type—y’know, political deserter, self-obsessed second best in her field, but more importantly, black.

Can you imagine the shitstorm at turning that down? Sir? You’re right, Ashley. Won’t hear it from his mouth, but you are.

Hashtag BLM, hashtag intersectional feminism. Oppression is so in these days. Say thank you, economy.

Captain America, bless his blue-red-and-white socks, is designed to appeal to the majority. That’s the catch, and so 2016. Homelander appeals to everyone. But... 

It gets lonely up here. And Steve, an agencyless Ken doll at this point, has got to know what that’s like.

  “Optics. Gives me the heebie-jeebies.”

What he means is We should be impartial, but... “But sometimes that’s what it takes to look out for the little guy behind the scenes.”

He gives that all-American corn, all 242 lbs of it in that obscenely tight-waisted Miss Wet T-Shirt Nevada body a once-over.

Steve hasn’t said the magic words yet. No Is that for me? Gosh. You shouldn’t have. Did all the manners die with ancient Brooklyn?

Homelander shimmies the basket.

  “Go on. Open it.”

Who likes knitting sets? Traumatized veterans, apparently. The Howling Commando plushies are a little tongue-in-cheek overkill, but they make up for any visual defects of the drawing of him and Captain America side by side that looks like it was committed by a stroking out five-year-old.

‘Cause it was. Deep’s talents never fail to creep him the fuck out.

Today was my version of a perfect travel day, and such a nostalgic experience, even though everything here is new to me and I hardly speak Spanish.

This morning I walked out the door with a few points of interest in mind, and I just let it flow.

I strolled down some side paths, made it to the dock and hopped on a boat to another town on Lake Atitlan- San Pedro. When I got to San Pedro, I just walked up, up, up through the town and crossed over the hill to see amazing views and end up in the neighboring town of San Juan.

San Juan is an artsy town with lots of gorgeous and colorful textiles. After looking around at shops (and seeing many versions of a dress I already have that I got when I randomly was in a Guatemalan fashion show in Maryland 3 years ago), I wandered back into town.

A tuk tuk driver stopped me and told me I had to see the “mirador.” I’m pretty sure I was headed that way anyways, but I’m glad he reminded me. Once again I went up, up, up and saw incredible views of the lake. When I landed at the bottom of the hill again, the same tuk tuk driver was there so I hopped in and he insisted he should take me to San Pedro so I could catch the boat back. On the way he showed me some views and tried to convince me to spend more time with him… anyways I told him I had to get back for dinner and he let me off in town. I had an hour to kill before the next boat back so I chatted with a Swiss backpacking couple by the water.

On the boat ride across the lake I couldn’t stop smiling.

Once I was back on the docks of Santiago where I started, I wandered home, collecting all sorts of street food along the way.

It was amazing to reconnect with the part of myself that wandered for 5/6 years after spending the past 3 years in “normal life” having the things I craved while I was alone on the road: community, a job with purpose, and income. Now I can have both? I am so grateful and will unironically say I’m hashtag blessed to live all the versions of the life I always dreamed of for myself.

thoughts 34 days post surgery:

- in disbelief @ the fact of how common endometriosis is vs in disbelief @ the fact that there is no cure despite the fact it’s so common (w/ surgery being basically only a bandaid before symptoms redevelop and you go back to hell world)

- i have been nearly a month without bread since it was largely disturbing my stomach/bowels/making me bloat to high heaven and i cannot mentally and spiritually accept yet that i may have to lead a breadless life

- it is getting easier to cook within the realms of what i can eat without triggering pain flare ups

- being vegan + having to avoid heavily fried foods + having to avoid bread + still trying to figure out via process of elimination what makes me hurt + trying to avoid plastic as much as possible = eating only at home, ever, and having to make basically everything from scratch

- my weird ass bloating and stomach pain have definitely triggered old eating disorder thoughts which love to lurk!!! but i am staying hashtag alert mentally and being active solely via means i enjoy (jogging, playing tennis, shooting hoops, walking and hiking, playing soccer with my roommates) so as to remember my body is a gift and to not get into the exercise as punishment cycle (also i am So Bad at tennis that every time we play i spend most of my time on the court just laughing at myself, which is good b/c i’m so competitive and my competitive brain ruins a lot of activities for me!) i refuse to exercise in horrible or rigid ways that make me feel like shit and are solely ways to “burn calories” or tone up! i will be in the sunshine! i will do yoga! i will jog at the park and pet all the dogs and then lay in the grass watching the clouds! i will laugh and be bad at things and be good at other things and practice joyful movement because i want to treat my body well and give it endorphins!

- that being said: i am cultivating a loving and caring relationship with my body by taking care of it and putting immense time and effort into making foods that will make it feel good! also, i am learning so much more about cooking and flavor and tastes - i think i’ve been a good cook for a while, but having new limitations on your diet is a sure fire way to force yourself to get creative (the same thing happened when i went vegan & also when i started to cut back on my plastic use) - obviously i am very lucky to be in a position to have the time and money and energy to cook for myself and to be able to spend so much time crafting meals and snacks that will feel good and i just want everyone to have the same experience or be in a position where someone else can take care of them with similar levels of care/time/energy/etc (cooking as a human right!)

- being forced to become so intimately involved in my own food journey has only made me care more about food sovereignty / hunger relief / redistribution / mutual aid around food, and i am so lucky and blessed to be studying food history and food anthropology and food geography as a life path and am so grateful to be on this journey of service and love and care via food and connection and community and ecology!!!

“You came back.”

“Stargazing was a good idea.”

“I promised, didn’t I?”

“The funny thing is I can’t even remember the first time I heard your name. How do I not remember something that made such a big difference in my life?” (@nekoannie-chan with bucky or brock]

“H-how much did you hear?”

“Right now I don’t even know if I want to kiss you or shove you off a bridge.” “Can I pick?" (@divine-mistake with Bucky)

“Were you ever going to tell me?”

“It’s midnight! Where the hell were you?”

“What the hell is your problem?!”

“I hate you! I’m sorry it took me so damn long to realize it.”

“Is that all you’ve got?”

In Maine the summer doesn’t last long.  This week has been a great “Fall” weather , even though it is not officially Fall yet.  It is (will be) high 80′s and 90′s yet, their is a nice, warm breeze blowing. Not a summer warm breeze but a cool, Fall, warm breeze.

The nights are getting chilly and the early mornings crisp and cold too.  I love it.  The trees are starting to change colors.  There are so many trees here and mountains of trees all around us and when the peak of the season is upon us there are some incredible colors to see here.

Couldn’t ask for much more.  I can walk out of my house and look up into wide open sky.  It is absolutely stunning weather morning, afternoon, raining, sunset or night.  Incredible.  I stand there and put my arms out and look up and take it all in.

At dusk, when the sun is setting over the mountains to the west , I assume it’s the west, lol have to google that one,  the sky becomes a vibrant mauve, pinks, purples.  I have seen a magenta sky .  Even the cloudy, dark skies before rain are beautiful.  Weather it’s Maine or the open sky or combination of both it is peaceful and comforting.  It also makes me realize how small I am in this universe.

I don’t say that quiet often enough.  That I’m grateful. I do have a lot to be grateful for . I do have the things I've always said I would have.  I’m not sure if I continued to believe that we would.  I know the man I'm with and have built my life with has got us (me) all that I've ever wanted or dreamed.  Fireplace, pool, basement, back yard with an open sky.  I am blessed and I am grateful.

In high school, my Decisions class, we had to make a book of our life (as in after school and into adult phase) cutting out magazines and paste them in a binder full of pictures of wedding dress and the whole wedding to Job, House, Furniture, adulthood shit.  I did that.  I did what I wanted and as far as I was concerned at that age was I was going to have it. 

My teacher gave me a C- she told me that my book was unrealistic.  Really? Who are you to say it was unrealistic.  Aren’t you the fucking teacher of the year......what the fuck right?  I will never forget that day.  I also will never forget the promise right then that I made to myself.  I would have all the things I wanted if I just put my mind to it and DO IT.   That is what I did.  

Thank you to the universe and God .  Thank you for the blessings and opportunities i have had through life.  I have had a good life.  I have done most of all I said I wanted or would do.  OK, maybe not all but most for sure.  More than most people.  That I can definitely say 😉.

May you have sweet dreams and wake up fresh........

I removed my hashtag dark soaks. Didn’t know I had to be dark dark. What the fuck
