Clairaudience
Bonjour! This might read a tad janky, but this feels like the place to post this as it concerns my host and his demon. This is Bleu by the way. Hi!
I'm going, "how does he do that?" As if a demon/vampire (not sure how he'd identify these days, given how my host is I'm leaning towards demon) that is in spirit form (for lack of better words) couldn't drop a few signs here and there.
My host, more so than I, tends to notice things in songs. Or meaningful songs come on at the exact right moment and play in the background. He's into that psychic stuff. Not that I don't believe in it myself, I mean I've witnessed things...it's just not my cup of tea. I didn't inherit that gift from my mother. But my host will hear a song and a certain line might stand out as if it's louder when it's not. Or he'll hyperfocus on a song because something is urging him to listen. It's like someone tapping him on the shoulder insistently and going, "hey pay attention right now!" I believe it, I know how it is for him, but I don't usually experience such things.
As I say this, when Sebastian has a message, even I feel like I'm being beamed in the face with it. The first time it happened was when I was co-fronting and my host was drawing. I asked him then, "is this what it's like for you?" I don't think it was coincidence that when he was working on a piece that dealt with his past, we both heard, "I'll be there as soon as I can. But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before." My host was so casually, "yeah that's Sebastian." Umm...I'm sorry this is fucking weird. It was like someone screamed those words in my ear. I mean the presence I felt, the line, I think I had my first ghost experience while (co)fronting.
I don't know how to interpret that message. Does that mean he's still stuck in the time loop? Does that mean he will manifest at some point in this life? If he manifests...I'm assuming he will come into someone's system. It would be really cruel for him to be human born and what? When he finally gets to be my host's current age my host would be in his 60's? No, we had two tragic lives, third time's a charm, right? I would think ideally, he'd manifest in our system. But I'm not sure if there would be issues with that. I know my host already has stated he'd rather not bind Sebastian to a human vessel and this one...it's not in the best shape. But enough on that...
I've been fronting since the whole dog thing yesterday more or less. I have random music on, kind of letting it do its own roulette sort of thing. We've been listening to Sleep Token since the beginning of the month. They were a band that happened to play, and we liked them. One of those 'suggested for you' type of things. My host really felt 'The Apparition' fit his situation well. Had a good cry about it and everything. So, this band neither of us knew existed until around a week ago, this song has my host an absolute mess. That is his new song. He loves it, it feels like his heart is being ripped out, lovely. (Oh my god...I can't some days with him...at least he's letting himself cry.)
There are probably many songs we haven't heard from the band but a new one, for us, came up today. 'Are You Really Okay?' This time I'm fronting but I felt how my host was feeling before that, and I know his mental state is poor. This was one of those stand out songs in a personal way. I did a look around the room and asked if it was Sebastian. Right after that song 'The Apparition' played and that felt like Sebastian confirming it. Now, me being the healthy skeptic I am, I had to look up albums and that is the order of the songs on the album. One could say logically that's why it played in that order. Though I find it interesting that we've listen to this band as well as other bands mixed for hours, probably a few solid days' worth and the first song never was played. As I'm attempting to be hopeful but I'm still doubting Motionless in White's 'Eternally Yours' plays next. Okay, I get it, it really is you. This is so freaky.
Anyway, host, Sebastian says you can't harm yourself. So, listen! You'll get over this rough patch. By the way, our likes are at 555, I know you like those angel numbers.

2024 reads / storygraph
Outdrawn
f/f contemporary romance
two cartoonist who’ve been rivals since uni, and now have competing webcomics online, have to work together on the relaunch of a cult classic at the comic press they both work at
they both struggle with art-related physical and mental health issues, and complicated families
#outdrawn#aroaessidhe 2024 reads#sapphic books#I thought this was decent! I liked the concept (even if I got distracted by some art related things…)#and the dynamic between the characters was good. I enjoyed their relationship development broadly speaking#and the emphasis on communication; though it was a quick flip into being together all of a sudden.#The sketchbook doodle flirting was cute. Some interesting exploration of their complicated family situations too.#There’s a lot of exploration of burnout and carpal tunnel and the dangers of artists overworking which I think are important conversations#and are done with some nuance. But it’s pretty much all discussed in the context of the personal pressure they put on themselves#rather than the industry corporate greed and artificial competition created by the comic platform - which are significant in this story!#It felt odd that that connection wasn’t really ever made?#I know that this is a romance and nitpicking the background plot is beside the point and also that I am not a big romance reader#but the premise that the comic hosting site archives everything; wipes the leaderboard; and out of nowhere has a comic competition for#new weekly chapters…I’m sorry but the art world would riot. Even if people enter because they’re desperate for the cash they’d be pissed#People live off the income from their webcomics! if they were erased (temporarily) with no notice…..there would be crimes committed istg#I simply don’t believe that it would be doable to create a new weekly webcomic with no notice while you also have a full-time comic job#(especially as the only stylistic choices mentioned are full-colour) - not to mention what happened to their 8-years-running webcomics#that were archived? they don’t think about them at all after the beginning? surely they’d care about that?#And then with their new comics they make for this competition (after work I guess) we get vague snippets about them but barely anything#- if they’re consuming that much of your time I would expect to feel like they’re thinking about them all the time#rather than the vaguest discussion about genre and cast numbers only.#I guess I just think the whole comic site stunt felt unnecessary for the plot anyway -#it would have worked exactly the same if they were just competing on the normal leaderboard with their normal comics???#anyway - I’m not judging TOO hard about all that because again I know it’s not the point and maybe the industry is like that in some place#Unfortunately it was distracting enough to affect my feelings on the book tho lol.#Lastly: the audiobook………oof. The narrators talk at different speeds; for one.#And Sage’s VA does this deeply weird raspy-anime-teen-boy voice for Noah which is such an odd choice#and doesn’t match her character at all.#unforch my library only had the audiobook (what I usually prefer) so I just had to sort of….translate the narration into a normal voice lol#anyway the romance is good tho

#blocks an anon that says they reported my blog for promoting ‘modern day slavery’ and an anon ragging on all 5 of the boys also disappears#shocking 😱#the modern day slavery thing is because of the dynamics of my marriage which....#say a lot about your ability to understand and respect different relationships#or possibly just speak to the truth about the anon's maturity#anyway my husband ordered me a sourdough breakfast sandwich from dunkin today and is going to eat the bacon#because my autism makes it so I struggle a lot with food but the number one part of our power exchange is he takes care of me#even when it comes to my 'weird' eating habits which literally any autistic person can tell you comes with a whole host of shame#but he helps me through every fucking step#i truly try not to brag too much about how good I have it relationship wise but genuinely GET YOU A LOVE LIKE OURS SORRY NOT SORRY#best friends since high school#ride or dies since high school#we hadn't talked for over a year and when his life started to implode back in 2008 i was THE ONLY person he knew he could trust

the GREAT PATREON SMUSH
I was going to make an advertisement for this with bright colors and maybe animated sparkles but 1) I hate making ads and 2) we are all so exhausted by bright ads vying for our brain chemicals that I just don’t want to do that to you anymore!!!! I’m TIRED of things grabbing for my attention in an unending assault on my senses and I’m sure you are too!!!!!!!
if you’ve been doom-scrolling and need a break (a nice beverage, a stretch of the legs, etc.), take this as a sign to do so now. if you’ve got the energy for a little reading, though, and want to learn about my work - keep going!
ANYWAYS I’ll get to the point: ALL of my patreon benefits are now available to the lowest ($3) tier.
in fact, there ARE no other tiers anymore. they’re gone! scrunched! smunshed! stirred up all together into one big super tier soup of everything I offer now and will offer in the future!
everyone now gets:
over 100 4k desktop wallpapers
early access/wips
25% discounts on prints
livestream voice chat
art votes & art suggestions
commission slots
and access to the Art Grotto discord, a friendly and chill server with a small community of creative folks. we share art, writing, pets, memes, and also come up with fun art ideas together! 🌈
why am I smushing the tiers and giving up the higher pledge amounts?!
because capitalism sucks, we’re in a recession, and I’m lucky enough to have a full-time job that allows me to make art without being reliant on Patreon income. anyone who has sat in on one of my livestreams knows that I try to be a calming force in an often-chaotic world, and that I’m always looking for ways to make art more accessible to everyone. I want my Patreon to be a place where I can give back to those who are supporting me in this mission!
this tier smush is just the start of how I hope to transform this space! I have a bunch of fun ideas about stuff I want to do in the future, so keep an eye out for more announcements like this 👁
that’s all!!!! thank you if you’ve read this far, and here’s the link to the Patreon if any of this interested you!
#auropost#i'm moving more and more away from trying to create bite-sized flashy info posts lately#like i don't want to be a brand!!!! i'm not a commercial!!!#and YOU are not an audience/consumer/target market/number on a screen!!#you're a PERSON!!!!!!#we're all people and this is a conversation#i'm de-programming a lot of social media brain rot right now#i don't care if that means that people scroll past my text posts#because i don't want to resort to assaulting your eyeballs with a graphic#we've all seen enough for a lifetime. for multiple lifetimes#so i'm trying to do something else#anyways my secret ideas for new patreon benefits involve discord livestreams of all the tech travel i've been doing lately#and then my ultimate patreon benefit goal is to go on a tour of public libraries in patrons' states#where i can host public xr art classes with people in person!!!#i'm already gonna be doing this in la soon so if success keeps up i want to take it on the road#with a focus on doing classes for discord members in their own home states!#eventually i'm thinking about making the discord server public as well#but right now it's just a well kept secret since i like that it's small :'D#anyways SINCERELY thank you if you've gotten this far. even if you can't join the patreon i appreciate that you took the time to read this#your time and attention is valuable and i don't take it lightly. take care 💖

i had a dream i divorced from gmail.... my dreamself has so much ambition
#philosophically i am in tune with self hosting#reality my patience is higher than average but still does not want to think too much#yes there are non selfhosting gmail options#things that could be a tweet or perhaps whatever you call a message on bluesky but i dont know what to call my internet home rn !#troutfishing#if you share your email and it is not gmail or something like that you kind of self profile yourself as a kind of person#my gmail is my name without numbers though perhaps i should treasure that

I will never understand ppl who are casual library haters. I’ve talked to people about how my siblings and I would always go to the libraries for their activities and programs, how we would rent dvds when we didn’t have cable or streaming, and they’re just like “oh yeah I never went to libraries I don’t like reading/ I just buy books” like girl you are devoid of whimsy I have my library card MEMORIZED we are not the same…
#libraries#anyway I’m hiding all my silly specific memories in the tags#there was this one librarian who moved around the county so he would host events at different libraries (some of them far)#and he started hosting pride month programs mostly for teens and my friends and I would go all the time#sometimes it would be book clubs or movie nights or crafts but they were always free and he’d get us snacks and stuff#and it was so welcoming and safe and one time I frogot my wallet (oops) and he called me on my drive home and was so kind and was like hey!#I found your number on your library card acount#and he stayed there late after they closed so that I could come back and get it lmao#but I still have the voicemail and everytime I see it it makes me so happy#and he’d let me check our R rated movies when I was like 16 >:)

Genuinely, where are ML people congregating these days. None of the Discord servers I'm in are super active anymore and I barely see people in them posting about new episodes/specials and definitely not as they're airing. Where is the new episode camaraderie
There used to be so many active Discord servers and groups on Tumblr/Instagram who talked about where to find links for whatever was coming out and livestreamed episodes themselves and went crazy while watching them all together and I can't tell if this is something that has gone by the wayside fandom-wide or if I am a loser who just isn't invited to be part of these things
#miraculous ladybug#honestly ml is a pretty interesting case study#I've been here since 2015 so like right at the beginning and it was easier to watch livestreamed episodes then than it is now#people are very cagey about links and wont give them out anymore#when it used to be very celebratory to share links and people would like. bond in livestream chats#god do people even remember le ranch. do people even know how watching that before episodes came out changed us#people dont even talk about new episode links until like. an hour before the episode comes out#so youre kind of sol if you dont live in a convenient timezone#and this is probably due to a whole number of things. ml getting more popular so people realized#they could make money off of livestreaming it#and then going after all other livestreams to get them taken down so we all had to use to same one site (miraculous.to)#disney taking over and getting real strict about their content takedowns#twitter going to hell. instagram getting worse. people leaving tumblr in 2018.#brand ambassadors changing how they interacted with fandom. fandom getting a lot bigger#so everything got a lot more spread out with more cliques and groups completely separated/unaware of each other#people who did a lot of the legwork leaving fandom and not explaining to anyone how to do what they used to#popular hosting sites getting taken down#etc etc etc

i think if i got an invite to someones place and they told me to supply my own beverage i would just not go
because what do you mean you don't have any liquids on hand to offer me....
#bring your own booze makes sooo much sense to me#like between wine beer and harder stuff it's soo hard to cater to a large number of people#like do you have to get seltzers AND beer AND different types of wine#but also have things on hand if people wanna do shots together?#that's easily 100 bucks and a LOT of stuff going to waste#but BEVERAGES IN GENERAL????????#if youre not supplying ANY beverages#i assume you hate your guests#and dont actually wantto be hosting

valter mun being silly and changing things :larachel_teehee::sparkles:
which is my silly little way of saying i'm updating valter's age haha. (and by consequence also selena's but by significantly less). deets under the readmore.
tl;dr is that i've thinking about it recently and as i grew more acquainted with "yeah he's 28 now innit" (he was 26 on arrival) my brain went "but what if older tho.?"
so after enough wobbling about, here's the updated numbers (reflected on his muse page):
birth year: 778 -> 773 (Magvel calendar) year of enlistment: 796 -> 791 (i.e. no change in age of enlistment, 18) moonstone status attained: 20 -> 23 years old cursed lance moment: 22 -> 26 years old (net increase of 1 year) exiled: 23 -> 27 years old (exile +1 year in length; returned at 30) death(?)/joining TOA: 26 -> 31 years old current age: 28 -> 33 years old
as you can tell, he was low-key fucked before. (he still is just slightly less now.)
33 just felt like a good number idk don't ask why i picked it (i modified the years after the fact X9c)
also, selena's updated numbers (also on her muse page):
birth year: 781 -> 780 (Magvel calendar) enlistment: 800 -> 799 (i.e. no change; to overlap a year with valter's tenure in the Imperial Three) death/joining TOA: 23 -> 24 years old current age: 24 -> 25 years old
it's literally just a year, but yeah. anyways. would put that extra year into the time spent before she became the Fluorspar as well.
oh yeah, i don't intend to change how i've been rp'ing either of them as a result of this change! however, if adding some sums to those numbers changes anything for you dearest muns of the toa community, feel no shame in reaching out and letting me know--i'm more than happy to accommodate!
ok kano eepy eepy out:sungals::sparkles:
#[ ‘by my cursed lance!’ ] (ooc)#// hosting this on valter's page since he's the og (and also the one chiefly affected by this)#// considered leaving him at 28 bc duessel being exactly twice his age was really funny to me#// alas. alas. :pensiveorange:#// if i change selena's age again later no i don't X9c#// also if i fucked up writing these numbers. just look at their respective muse pages those are accurate i can prommy that :crunchy:#// (day later note:) GWAHAHAHAHAHAH I DID FUCK THEM UP LMAO#// don't do your numbers when ur super eepy eepy chat :crunchy:#// idk where tf i got 801 as the start of the war from but ANYWAYS#// tyty susanne for pointing it out gwahahahahah#// probably would've caught it eventually on my own.#// but NOT SOON!!!!!! so ty muchly :heart_hands::sparkling_heart:

All this anon happy that jimin dad put an event for tae solo and joon bday but he didn't do those for rm or yoongi solos this winter/spring
I mean maybe those genius should think that the events maybe were organized because everyone noticed that he was doing them only for jk&jm and he thought that he shouldn't put to much attention on them and decide to organize events for other members too ._. Im not saying that he don't like other members he was just probably biased
Hello,
There are so many possibilities. For all we know, he placed the names of the members in a hat and picked out 3 and those got events lol
It's funny how this has become a thing now. I don't remember ever noticing this in the past.
For me, it doesn't matter. But for solos, every thing that is not a jikook exclusive matters...a lot!
Thanks for sharing.

the part of being an exchange student that no one tells you about is when another exchange student arrives late and then their host parents just Decide that you are the person they should be asking questions to such as why their exchange student is sick and i just....
#zorrotalks#they have my phone number somehow and idk how that happened#that's the part that pissed me off#also why should i know what your exchange student ate last night#we did go to a bday party together but i was unaware that i was supposed to be Paying Attention To What She Ate To Tell You Later#i did not tell the host parents because that would be fucking weird#like tf#and just to clarify if they were normalish questions like how do we help with culture shock i would be slightly irritated but fine with it#but no it's fucking why is my child sick#how should i know i'm 17#exchange student#exchange student things#why me
