the first one: damn, rude bitch (i can say this coz i wrote this, and then orphaned it). she gon' die and your rude ass writes FANFICTION when you have to say a few words to her?

the second one: why did i write that as a part of a suicide note? it's very much something i'd do IRL but still wtf?

the third one: yeah i have no words. i get why people may not believe me when i say im asexual

last one: why did i have to clarify that? i think most people would get it.

More spindle nonsense!

A sample of merino/silk blend. Doesn't look all that fine, but this is laceweight enough that I kept worrying about dropping the spindle. Which I haven't yet... aside from that one time where I forgot this isn't a bottom-whorl spindle and tried to get it started upside down, danged muscle memory.

This definitely doesn't feel like a beginner spindle and its rhythm doesn't exactly make for a leisurely spinning experience, it's so finnicky to keep steady (it's capable of spinning so evenly you can barely tell it's moving at all, but if you as much as draft too quickly, it'll tumble) and it's so goddamn fast you have to stay focused on it constantly, but it also makes spinning fine, even yarns pretty much effortless. If I wanted to spin cotton with a drop spindle for some fucking reason, I think this one would be the one to choose.

Unlike my bottom-whorl spindles, which are kind of ass to spin with sitting down, this one's also a perfect desk chair spindle; the timing of its spin just works out great for spinning shorter lengths at a time.

I am... really not looking forward to plying this stuff, lmao. A center-pull ball would be super annoying to wind AND likely tangle in the middle, and a plying bracelet would have me risking fingers given the length... and I hate chain-plying with a burning passion.

I'm also pondering 2-ply vs cabled 4-ply and am very muchly open to suggestions!

h-how do you ever finish any of your work? genuine question because you seem to be productive despite your agreste syndrome and I need to learn your ways. but also how do you ever finish any of your work

unclear. last night i stayed up and finished a report worth 25% of my grade at about 5am, arrived on time for my 9am lecture, and spent about half of it zoned out while thinking about seventeen year old emilie agreste. and i was one of the most active participants in the class discussion

Sometimes I think to myself "actually maybe I'm exaggerating the terror I felt from being stalked", but then I remember that the person in question followed me and waited for me outside my school every day, tracked me down on every website I'd spent even the slightest time on, left physical letters in my mailbox, sent creepy as hell novel length messages on a near daily basis on FB. And then when I was living abroad and I answered the phone I told the caller to text me cause I couldn't hear, after which I had to read "I was saying that you would probably be VERY scared if you knew who's calling... hehe" with my own damn fucking eyes...

And then I'm like yknow what nevermind!!!! the fact that I'm still terrified of being perceived and seen in public not just IRL but also FFXIV might be understandable actually!!!

[whenthegoldrays]

also I think it’s time for a little Elly Lore Update because I feel like I mention so many people on here and y’all need to understand who I’m taking about when you attend the virtual sleepovers 😌

made gf sourdough today and i didn’t have very high hopes (it was just the recipe on the flour bag that called for the starter to be made just the day before) but it turned out actually pretty good!!!

I love Principle Dr Kenobi and Mr Skywalker Esq so much they're so bitchy 😂 How long do they hate fuck for and does it go beyond that? Is there a moment Obi-Wan looks into Leia's tiny glaring face and have the awful realisation he's going to become her and Luke's step-Dad? How does this relationship progress???

i bet dr kenobi, headmaster of an elementary school and mr. skywalker esq are hatefucking on their wedding day. mr skywalker only refers to dr kenobi as dr kenobi in his wedding vows. dr kenobi calls him esquire and also apologizes for calling him mr. skywalker amidala upon first meeting - he should have known to call him mr. skywalker-kenobi. esquire.

i love the idea of obi-wan, two years into a covert relationship with anakin that surprised both of them, looking at leia when she comes to his office after another schoolyard fight or general mischief, and he's like oh my god. i'm biased. oh shit. oh SHIT i want to let her off easy. oh no. oh god. fucking her father has compromised me emotionally ethically and professionally. oh shit. im compromised over fucking. anakin. fucking skywalker. esquire.

what im getting at is there's definitely a moment in their relationship where anakin's thinking they're slowly easing their way into an adult relationship after several years of being childish and he's mostly ok with that after several sessions of soul searching, and then suddenly obi-wan cuts off all contact outside of work. goes completely dead air.

anakin has no idea what happened and he doesn't even think to wonder if it's his kid.

for once it's not his kid but it's obi-wan's protective reaction to his kid (as if the kid were obi-wan's kid)

My aunt decided a good way to wish me a happy birthday would be to text me a picture of me & my dead dad from my 22nd birthday.

Like yay thanks, I totally wanted to be sad and missing my dad on my birthday. I definitely wasn't trying to do the "out of sight out of mind don't think about sad things" thing to get through it without crying or anything 👍 Definitely wasn't already struggling missing not getting a happy birthday text from him 👍👍

[thornescalling]

i want to do one of those "one art for every month" things but the sad truth of it is i just can't find a template and am too lazy to make my own.

so since today is my day off and i didn't (key word here) have anything pressing until this afternoon, i was planning on taking the poodle puppy to the vet to get his annual shots. he's due and he's the only dog that actually goes anywhere where there are strange dogs because he needs to be groomed, so this is for the health and safety of all five dogs and the cat. my mom comes home from the hospital tomorrow, and i'm not sure when i'll be able to leave her alone to take him in, so today was perfect. except that some guy has to deliver oxygen today.

rant under the cut

now i need y'all to understand that my mother has NEVER needed oxygen. she didn't need it until last week when her allergies were so bad she woke up choking on mucus, and her oxygen levels dropped and scared the nurses so they put her on oxygen, and now they can't seem to be able to wean her off of it. mind you, apparently "weaning" to these people is taking her off of it entirely and then making her stand for like ten minutes. she's been in inpatient physical therapy for a week and a half because the fucking hospital didn't get her out of bed for two fucking weeks after her emergency surgery and now she can't fucking walk, and standing for long periods of time was already difficult for her because of her back before the hospital, so they might as well have had her running down the fucking hall. yeah okay that's fucking genius, she's been on oxygen for like four days nonstop and y'all decide that "weaning" means taking it off entirely and making her do something strenuous for her. awesome. y'all are fucking stupid as shit, but okay. so naturally, she couldn't breathe when they took her off it so the doctor decided she needs oxygen. cool.

so back to homie bringing the fucking oxygen today. me and my dad have to go pick up a rental car for tomorrow because, again, these people fucking broke my mom and now she can't get into the truck. we have to pick it up at five. "oh don't worry i'll be there in the morning!" my dear friends, it is 1:30 pm and he still isn't fucking here. i have been sitting here doing FUCK ALL since 9:30, WHEN I WAS PLANNING ON TAKING THE DOG TO THE VET THAT IS AN HOUR AWAY FROM MY HOUSE, waiting for Jimothy The Medical Supply Guy(tm) to bring oxygen my mother NEVER FUCKING NEEDED BEFORE THIS FUCKING ORDEAL. i have done NOTHING but stress out on my fucking day off from work because nobody on earth gives a single flying fuck about anybody but themselves. "oh we're here to make the lives of the family easier and more convenient!" my lily white fucking ass. if y'all hear a news story about a hospital in north texas [redacted] in the next week then expect a fucking hiatus i fucking guess (for legal reasons this is a joke...)

While not a first generation immigrant child, I still appreciate Belushi: A Biography a lot because Belushi’s family life reminded me of my old home life before my mom and dad died. It also made me feel better about eating bigger portions too because like…. it isn’t just a me thing. It’s just how Mediterranean families eat KAKSJAKSJ

Not to mention Belushi himself reminds me so much of my dad I wouldn’t be surprised if his favorite actor was him. My dad was a big film nut and watched anything and everything that came out back then. Similar mannerisms, humor…
