I'm excited. Someone FINALLY made a film version of "Are You There God, It's Me Margaret?" This was my all-time favorite book, when I was twelve.

[icecrematorium]

I liked Superfudge better.

✨ autistic memories ✨

I saw they're making a movie of Are You There God, It's Me, Margaret, and I remembered how absolutely baffling I found that book

I wasn't identified autistic till I was 40, so there are a lot of memories I have that make a lot more sense to me now than when they happened, or when I've recounted them without that vital context. AYTGIMM is apparently one of those, though I hadn't thought about it in ages

I read it right about the time I went through puberty, so ages 10-12, and I just.... didn't get it? why were these girls so obsessed with painful nonsense? I hated my tits, they were already too big and hurt all the time. I didn't care about anyone else's period, and only cared about how awful mine was, and didn't understand how no one else was in bed with cramps for 24-48 hrs at a time

and that one girl who, like, lied about it? what was that about? why would that make you - I don't even know, was she popular because of it or something?!

but if course, now that I know about the autism, it all falls into place: those social cues are stupid, I'm not getting involved in some made up neurotypical bullshit, I have stories to write. of course I'm baffled: these weird rites of passage mean less than nothing to me, they tap into weir hierarchies that I refuse to participate in, that I will never understand

My first book festival experience at yallwest was very fun. If I keep going to festivals I will need another bookshelf.

All of the women in Patience, Colorado are deeply unhinged, and honestly good for them

Claire Bloom & Judy Geeson dans Three into Two, 1969.

[maxisthenewalex]

I've been watching Resident Alien with my sister. My bi little heart flutters at Judy who gives chaotic bi energy like no one's business. I think she's in love with D'Arcy. But fanfic (AO3) has failed me.

Hopefully there's something here in the depths of Tumblr.

reminder that this is a general reading and messages found here may not apply to everyone. take what resonates, leave what doesn't, and don't force anything if it does not fit.

BOOK A READING WITH ME · LINKTREE · 18+ PATREON · TIPS ♡ tips, bookings, and feedback are highly appreciated!

GROUP ONE

cards pulled · knight of cups, five of pentacles, the lovers, ten of pentacles, king of cups. 

channelled songs · blue by beyoncé & blue ivy. like it like that by pip millett. bigger by beyoncé. between the bars by eliott smith.

my dear group one  ♡ brace yourself, dear, because love is closer to you than you think! it is closer to you than you could ever imagine! 

not only is it closer to you in the span of time, but physically closer to you, as your next love may be someone who is around you. this is someone who you may not necessarily be friends with or even talk to, but who you share a schedule with. for example, someone you commute with or see at the coffee shop or see at the gym. 

whatever the specifics, this seems to be someone who you have not really paid much attention to or thought of as a romantic prospect. 

however, very soon, things are going to change. and they are going to change for the better!

GROUP TWO

cards pulled · eight of swords, page of pentacles, the hierophant, the emperor, seven of pentacles.

channelled songs · filter theory by coa white. alive by shinee. get back by pop smoke. walk by nct 127. 

my dear group two  ♡ what you must know, my dear, is that your anxiety is stopping you from seeing your way out of your current situation. you are a bird in a cage, the cagedoor is wide open, and you want to be free but you are afraid of what freedom would be like. 

you are stuck. you are stagnant. you are afraid to take a step forward and unwilling to accept your life for what it is. 

it’s kind of weird becauseyou want things to happen in your life, to change,  but… at the same time… you have no idea what you want out of life. you have no idea what exactly in your life you want to change. 

it’s time to sit down and do some introspection.

GROUP THREE

cards pulled · page of cups, the lovers, four of swords, page of swords, king of pentacles.

channelled songs · wait for it from hamilton. blue by taemin. honey - remix by mariah carey & mase. youngblood by 5 seconds of summer.

my dear group three ♡ what you must know is that soon you will find out why things have turned out the way that they have. why things have fallen apart. why things have not worked out before, or worked out in the way you had hoped. especially where love and work is concerned. 

a better lover or business partner is coming towards you. this is a lover who can actually meet your needs in all the ways you have desired. or this is a business partner/job opportunity who will actually be paying you what you deserve.

for some, it is a combination of both, as these areas of your life will be blooming. wait for it! just a little longer!

GROUP FOUR

cards pulled · ten of cups, king of pentacles, knight of pentacles, ace of pentacles, four of wands.

channelled songs · desperado by rihanna. cry baby by megan thee stallion. punch and judy by elliott smith. good luck, babe! by chappell roan.

my dear group four  ♡ what you must know right now is that all that glitters is not gold. things are not as good as they seem, and people you are exhausting yourself for would never in their life do the same for you. 

you have idealised or romanticised a certain relationship, especially a familial relationship, and just accepted that it is normal for you to put everything you have into it. 

but what about yourself? you can only give so much to othes, before it becomes detrimental to yourself and your health. it is time to start doing more for yourself. to take care of yourself. to celebrate yourself. and, more than that, to spoil yourself.

Soft-Dark!Rick Grimes | Naive!You

Warning(s): Lowkey Soft-Dark!Rick, you're hopelessly in love with each other, age gap, hints of corruption kink, breeding kink, fluff and smut. Season 4 because that's where I am at.

Rick loves it.

Rick loves you.

How you are amazed from the littlest of things despite the crazy world you live in. It is not even pretentious. You are genuinely so awestruck and amazed by every little thing he does. Before he let you in the personal walls of his heart you would always follow him around like one does their idol. It makes him feel appreciated, for once.

The way you always make everything seem okay just by a little smile and some reassurance. It works every time. 

The little gasp you let out when he does something so simple as lighting a match from a surface, the way you lean in towards the fire by standing on your tippy toes, tilting your head to get a better look at it and then he has to clasp his bigger hands over yours to keep you safe and close to him. 

The way you always seem to have some kind of a cloth on you to clean him with whenever he ends up covered in blood due to an unsavory circumstance or two. The way your body curls into his side as you gently dab away at the crimson spray covering his features while you watch the distant expression in his eyes as he stares ahead, lost in the chaos of his own mind. 

But then his gaze eventually travels to yours before connecting with it and he seems to come back to you at once. Everything begins to make sense once more and even in the most bleak of situations the electric blue of his irises lights up and a smile blooms across his features. 

He is addicted to how warm your body feels pressed up against his, how the tender flesh of your thighs presses into his older, hard, manly and worn out skin. The way your mouth falls agape and darkness of the utmost depravity takes over your doe-like eyes as you gasp and claw at his muscles to keep up with his intrusion of your tight, previously virgin pussy. How a film of sweat appears on your skin and makes it gleam in the prettiest way even in the dull lights. The manner in which your skin trembles where your heart beats and your nerves pulsate furiously as a reaction to his defiling you. The man can do and he does whatever he pleases with you, and you take it with gratitude, your fingers seeking his to clasp around if he gets too much for your young body sometimes. 

The way you take care of his children in your own friend-like manner since you're much too young for maternal ways just yet. Always helping Carl out and doing your best with Judy since kids aren't really your forte. But you still try. Out of the goodness of your heart and your love for their father. He knows you'll make a fine mother some day for the rest of his children. He cannot wait.

Rick loves it.

Rick loves you.
