she's home and she's beautiful!!

now i just need to wait for the second book to come out so i can actually get a svsss book i haven't read yet (yes, having two first svsss books at home was not, in fact, a part of my plan when i originally bought the seven seas edition two years ago)

it's such a good green color. and soft touch. and the pages are nice. and aaaaah

i will definitely read it, even tho i read the first book already, to get the feel for the translation, the names and everything, idk if i will be able to but i'll try to wait for the second book to at least be announced, so i won't have to wait too much to read the next part after i finish the first one. again.

The world exists in such a baffling state of simultaneous sex-aversion and sex-hegemony. Every social platform on the internet is trying to banish sex workers to the shadow realm but I can't post a tweet without at least two bots replying P U S S Y I N B I O. People are self-censoring sex to seggs and $3× but every other ad you see is still filled with half-naked women. Rightwingers want queer people arrested for so much as existing in the same postal code as a child and are also drumming up a moral panic about how teenage boys aren't getting laid enough. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

I'm re-reading the Discworld series for reasons, and honestly the most relatable part of reading these as an adult is how many of the protagonists start out being tired, used to their little routine and vaguely disgruntled by the interruption of the Plot. Sam Vimes wants to lie drunk in a gutter and absolutely doesn't want to be arresting dragons. Rincewind is yanked into every situation he's ever encountered, though he'd much rather be lying in a gutter too. (Minus the alcohol. Plus regretting everything he's ever done said witnessed or even heard about fourth-hand in his whole life.) Granny Weatherwax is deeply suspicious of foreign parts and that includes the next town over; Nanny has leaned into the armor of "nothing ever happens to jolly grannies who terrorize their daughters-in-law and make Saucy Jokes"

Only the young people don't seem to have picked up on this---and that's fortunate, because someone has to run around making things happen, if only so Vimes and Granny and Rincewind have a reason to get up (complaining bitterly the whole time) and put it all to rights. Without Carrot, Margrat, Eric, etc. these characters don't have that reason; they're likely to stay in the metaphorical gutter and keep wondering where it all went wrong or why anything has to change.

............well, that's not quite true. You get the sense that Vetinari knows how much certain people hate the Plot. And as the person sitting behind the metaphorical lighting board of Ankh-Morpork, he takes no small pleasure in forcing the Plot-haters specifically to stand up, and say some lines.

my hof was born to be a griffon rider, if they could've given him a griffon at the start of dao the blight would've been over in a week

people seriously pretending EEAAO is overrated suddenly bc it swept awards? it swept awards largely because it is very very very good. I cried like someone who's just had a religious revelation BOTH times I watched it bc it touched something raw and real and beautiful but it was also just very, very funny. everyone's performance kills and the concept is creative and interesting and doesn't distract from the emotional core. you guys are just contrarian.

annoys the hell out of me when characters in stories say shit like "this isn't like the stories" or "if i was a character in a story this wouldn't be happening to me" girl do you really want to bet

i was at my friend’s graduation party hanging with other teenagers once and the group was bragging about how fast they had each gone on the highway, so i made a comment of concern. as one does. and one kid looked at me and he said “oh, come on! live a little!” like some sort of 60s horror movie supporting teen character who dies in the first 5 minutes to which i say “no thanks; i’d rather live a lot” which to this day i think is the best retort i ever spat on the spot

Maybe it's because I grew up without much money but every time I go grocery shopping (I do this online) I feel so fucking wealthy. I'm all like "you know I can save myself so much labour... and buy the apple pie THAT'S ALREADY MADE, haha, such an indulgence!" and "with the click of a button, THEY WILL BRING THE FOOD TO MY HOUSE! So luxurious!"

Last week I bought the kind of instant noodles that come in their own disposeable cups instead of the cheaper kind that you have to provide a bowl for and I'm still riding that high.

the funniest part about this to me is that, if it’s all true, people were so distracted by jensen and misha’s waves hands vaguely that we gal pal’d some dudes who were actively declaring their love for each other and calling each other their life partner on twitter
