I feel like something that people forget when it comes to cheap tat holidays- holidays that have been infected by low taste and workplace acceptable crappy decorations and objects of holiday significance- that there are other ways to enjoy them, and that if they so choose, they can make it theirs in ways that are beautiful that don't automatically mean they're capitulating to the Mars company and Big Plastic.

Holidays are supposed to be fun, or for making time for deep meaning and connection- to others, to your past, to your plans for the future, to the numinous that makes your soul ring deep and low in the center of your being. So instead of sneering at Valentines, or letting it make you fell bad, how about one of these?

Dance (or fuck) your brains out

make a ceremony over remembered loves past, either to cherish the good, or give thanks for the escape

take a leaf out of Miley Cyrus' book and create a perfect date that is peculiar and perfect for you and no one else

blow the money on the vibrator or sex toy you've been coveting but think is too expensive

take the 6 hours to make that Fantcy dessert

colorbound your wardrobe for the week by wearing all the pink and red and purple you can feasibly fit into your outfits

ROM COM MOVIE FEST

Write the most deranged PWP 500 words about your OTP you can think of

Send silly Valentines cards to 20 friends like you are in 3rd grade, bonus points for the worst puns you can think of

Write postcards to the couples in your life that are doing it right, letting them know what you admire specifically about their relationship

Be like OP and savor the silly gimcrack of it all, take a second and appreciate the shininess of the red plastic, as if you are a magpie

Disliking how Others do it is fine, but giving up a chance at a holiday, at making a fuss and occasion for yourself on your terms, that is poverty indeed. Adulthood can suck on many levels, see being the animal and the zookeeper at the same time, but taking time to make meaning for yourself, through the lens of a semi traditional holiday, that can be so fun, or so special, or so satisfying, that it ceases to matter how others play the game. What do you do at your house? Because making it just another day, in FEBRUARY no less, the worst and longest of the months, strikes me as worse than putting up whatever weird decorations Target had in their little deal grotto.

dont understand people who "don't like" valentines day... I personally dgaf that its "made up" and "commercialist"... i love heart shaped things and i love everyone in my life. Its really simple

I want a fun one!

I tried doing a couple for self-discipline reasons like finishing existing projects instead of starting new ones and reading whatever non-fiction I find interesting for an hour at the same time every day or stuff like that, but those were kinda boring and I’d get disappointed in myself if I didn’t succeed lol

I kinda missed the deadline for New Year’s resolutions, but technically I can make a resolution whenever I want, so I’ll have to think on it…

THAT'S THE SPIRIT!!! i am so glad more people are embracing the Fun Shapes Agenda. if we all keep it up they'll have to start inventing more i know it

[thjslove]

thinking about this text post about new year resolutions... that if you forget the strict non-fun traditional resolutions you can enjoy some fun and whimsy resolutions which is the only energy i wish to bring to 2025

Hello friends! My previous expedition went a bit hinky so I’ve decided to leave my group and strike out on my own. My traveling group is currently hiding out in a pristine church outside of a small kingdom overrun with dark magic. The perfectionist cleric that runs the place has finally taken a break from complaining about my footprints to sleep on an old thread bare (yet still meticulously cleaned) sleeping bag at the foot of the alter. The rest of my party scattered and snoozing in the pews or sprawled across the floor their snores echoing off the tall arching ceiling. I slip Maria across my back and as quietly as possible pad my way to the exit when an odd scent caught my attention. I prick my ears to make sure everyone is still asleep before I follow the smell through the rows of pews being careful to be a quiet as possible the cold granite floors making my pads prickle. Past the pews and to the far left of the alter the nose tickling smell of powerful magic led me to a small gap in the tile at the base of the raised platform the alter rested on. I carefully slip out of Maria’s harness and back my way through the hole dragging Maria behind me. My fluffy tail sweeping behind me feeling for any traps or other dangers only collecting thick blankets of cobwebs (gross!). I turn around to inspect my surroundings only to find a narrow dark and downward sloping tunnel. How odd.

Hello! I wanted to let you know that last year I saw your pasta quest post and then I did it!!

I ate so many fun pasta shapes! And they brought me so much joy!

I haven’t decided quite what to do this year but I think it will be another make delicious food kind of quest - maybe a tasty food bingo card?
