We cleaned up the prayer list at work today, and it got so small that I added in some of y'all to keep it from being too short for a little while. Hope you don't mind getting prayed for by some well-meaning Episcopalians.

Alastor Swearing

How are yall noticing Alastor swearing at Lucifer and him rarely swearing, like I was definitely not paying attention to that. Like I barely even noticed Sir Pentious dying

Need some help from my TVDU experts here (looking at you, @persevereforahappyending and @vervaincircle) for a tiny little piece of plot: do hotel/motel rooms require vampires to be invited in? 🙏

I went through the TVDU wiki, and it was only talking about houses, but IIRC when Elena and Caroline went to college and ended up with a non-Bonnie roommate, said roommate had to invite them in to their dorm room initially. And when Kai comes back from the Prison World in S2 of Legacies, he has to be invited in to the school (because people live there, in the dorms?).

I presume owned apartments are like houses, but what about leased apartments? They’re like dorm rooms, in a sense. And if dorm rooms require invites…they are then in a sense leased places of residence (pay a room fee to the school aka the owner, get to live in said room), so do hotel/motel rooms follow the same pattern, being short-term leased places of residence (pay for a room, get to stay there as long as the fee covers)?

These are the tiny details that drive my mind batty.

I've realized that my level of tagging on posts is indicative of some things:

tagged, not marked as queued: I am reblogging this in the moment and have the mental energy/inclination to tag

tagged q+other tags: I queued this, then six months later spent 20 minutes tagging a bunch of posts in my queue all at once

tagged something then q: I tagged this when I queued it

ETA: tagged q and nothing else: I feel an obligation to note that my posts are queued and I'm not necessarily around when they post but didn't have time to actually do full tags on anything

no tags, not marked as queued: I queued this and haven't made or found the time/brain power/etc to sit down and tag ahead in my queue

Which is why, though it's obvious that I do tag in principle, sometimes my tumblr is untagged in practice. I tend to have a full queue and another 100+ posts in drafts, because I'm interested in a lot of things, follow a lot of accounts (accumulated over 14+ years), and had something of a health crisis for a while. My queue is set to 5 posts per 24 hours, but it gets stuck on 8 or more posts sometimes when I want to clear it out a bit and then it refuses to reset.

Anyway, minutiae. I just feel bad sometimes that I'm cluttering the dash in unpredictable ways!

The man on the radio has returned for all things Friday ... tells the tale of his impromptu stage taking and drumming ... slides with ease from Hakuna Matata to Swan Lake ... presses the button to introduce the traffic lady. More crazy car stuff in Dublin due to the musician whose name I will not mention.

The chef on the radio steams in laden with mackerel, sea bass and puy lentils. "I'm using Bay leaves with this recipe", he says ... "Did you just say Baileys?" asks the man on the radio ... "Did I say what? asks the chef ... "Baileys ... did you say Baileys? Cos that's an odd combination if you did". The chef giggles and says no, definitely Bay leaves but feel free to drink Baileys whilst you're cooking.

Today's groaner: a pessimist sees a dark tunnel ... an optimist sees light at the end of the tunnel ... a realist sees a freight train ... the train driver sees three idiots standing on the track ;-D badoom tish ... here all week!!

Survived yesterday's very rainy, umbrella filled shiny metropolis trip part deux. Phew! In and out in 2 hours, but life still feels slightly out of focus. Now back to hiding out and looking at the little things. I'll be keeping 'the umbrella' and water wings close to hand after yesterday's downpours ... ensuring my fingers are crossed that the lovely Fermata feels like eating today ... and rest assured the coffee will be flowing ...

page 562 panel a - variation on a theme.

And now I give you the same square but the slash is on a slight angle. Is your life better for the choice?

Maybe you like one over the other. That's cool and nice.

Choose choose choose choose choose, or you will not be defined and you will not exist.

Buy everything you want but remember any meaning, any feeling you get from it that is beyond pure utility is based in community. An adult emerges from an egg and finds a scarf, they use it to stay warm, oblivious to its colours and patterns and the cultural discussion between Serge Ibaka and OG Anunoby about who put who onto scarves.

Valentines Rarepair Bingo

Look! I should probably participate in the little bingo too! Here we go, we have a freshly created pairing of Gezras & Lambert, inspired by a little bit of story batting around with the inimitable @lohrendrell. Because love languages aren't only romantic. Rated: G Pairing: Gezras & Lambert

Lambert is slowly figuring out that when Aiden has flirted with him, he was serious. What had been said with a tilted smile and intense eyes wasn't intended as a joke. But for all Lambert's talk of fairness and justice, his self worth has never been great. After an unfortunate moment where Regis kicked him out of Corvo Bianco and he found a new home with the Cats, Lambert's now faced with finally dealing with something he only recently realized himself. Gezras has little patience for such foolishness, but he's grown fond of the gruff puppy that one of his favourite students brought home.

Okay so rewatching the dinner with Robert scene to try and figure out what they’re eating (like you do), and Carlos’s plate is scraped clean, Owen’s plate is barely touched, and Robert and TK look like they’re about halfway through their meals.

I just have this image of Carlos eating steadily while everyone talks and then looking wistfully at TK’s still half full plate and wondering if anyone would notice if he stole just another bite of chard off of it - that’s a thing almost husbands are allowed to do, right?

Verdict is - I think - salad + chicken + rice (maybe?) + some kind of green (chard?) + Owen’s plate looks like it has bread, although I am concerned about the lack of bread basket on the table.

Anywhoodle.
