Happy Miller Monday, Orange besties 🧡

I hope you're having a gentle start to this week (not like me who nearly set the building on fire, I'm not even exaggerating that much).

I came out of my cave this morning after logging off last Friday (this little game of "post and hide") and I am a little (completefuckingly) overwhelmed by your kindness. Thank you so fucking much to everyone who read chapter 4 of tybtm 🧡 Thank you so fucking much to everyone who interacted with chapter 4 of tybtm 🧡 You are way too good to be true, far too kind to me, and I love you 🧡

Chapter 5 will be titled Never Let Me go. Super mild spoilers below the cut.

It should be hella soft (if I can manage) and a short reprieve from the angst fest (but fear, it's me, there will be angst) so you all better enjoy because after that one, we'll be entering the endgame 👹

I've started working on it, but you know how life is... In the meantime, I urge you all to watch Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person, yes, yes I am still on about this movie, I won't drop it anytime soon.

Have a good Monday, I can't explain how thankful I am and how much ily 🧡

I was today years old when I realized intheorangebedroom was yours 🤭 I'm a little slow on the uptake. 😆

LMOA Maggie, love 🧡

Listen... You're not slow at all, far from it! I am very skilled at keeping the fragments of myself neatly compartmentalised (I was raised a catholic, obv) and it can get confusing.

Thank you SO MUCH for being my mutual and also for joining the Orange bedroom 🧡 Please make yourself comfortable. Can I bring you some snacks? Something to drink? Both, in the shape of our favourite Pilot...?

Pumpkin, you are the best! Please, don't even waste your time on those stupid ass f0ckin people who have such miserable and sorrowful lives that they are desperate enough to send you anon hate. F0ck them. If a threesome is so weird for them, i hope they accidentally click on a link to the site with nothing but threesomes to open their heart and mind. Amen. You are the Queen here. You make the best content ever - please just remember that.

OMG!!! You are so sweet!!!!

I’m really not so troubled by this, though but I appreciate you sending such a nice ask!

You’re placed in a room with an animal. The door is closed and you cannot leave. The animal is completely calm and has no intent of harming you. You are in no danger unless you provoke the animal in some way.

OUAHFGHGHHH that was so sweet.... mazey wanting to break out twister and then being shamed for being childish and fig, a dope ass rock star with a leather jacket and fishnets says "hey, I would fucking love to play twister" like. the way fig is so genuinely kind sometimes. those pictures of punks letting kids touch their mohawk spikes. yknow what I mean?

[my-fall-from-grace]

ok yknow what i’m gonna say it

no matter how “bad” logan has been or how “little” he deserves this 2nd year or how he’s a “pay driver” or whatever else y’all always say

he doesn’t deserve this. any of this

since the very first moment he stepped in a f1 car, he’s been treated as a joke. first it was the wtf is a kilometre jokes then rah rah eagles and now logan in the wall / fork found in kitchen / deuxmoi memes. every weekend, the commentators compare him to his teammate, ignoring the difference in experience and the way they aren’t even driving the same car and that logan was literally running last years specs multiple times. they compare him to oscar, who has driven multiple times f1 cars during test runs and is in a mclaren and the situations are not even remotely similar, ignoring that logan was promoted early, that he didn’t have much opportunity to drive f1 cars even for testing, that he was literally tossed into the deep end without any help and told to survive.

the only time they were even remotely kind to him was when they gave his car to alex. which thanks for the support or whatever but that is so backhanded i don’t even have the words to describe it.

i think we’re all coming to the terms with the reality that this will be his last year in f1. and i don’t think that’s fair for so many reasons. you promote him early, you give him a shit car, you talk bad about him in the media and you don’t promote him (lap of legends hello?) and you openly court other drivers for his seat. you disrespect him and allow others to disrespect him and that’s not right.

formula 1 is the dream for so many people. imagine achieving your dream, even if it’s in a joke of a team, even if it’s too early. but then you become the joke of a joke, you become the american, which is a bad thing. the outsider, the one who doesn’t belong. they make fun of you each weekend. they ask every day when you’ll be replaced.

(and yeah i agree. he does need to improve to have any hope of keeping his seat, f1 is brutal and it’s never been kind, and i’m not being naive and thinking oh it’s his dream and so he deserves it despite it all. i’m not saying that. what i am saying is that is a human being, just like nicholas latifi was, and some of you are too comfortable being cruel.)

speaking of being the american. they make fun of you as though that will punish the fia for putting 3 us races on the calendar. as though that will punish all the american fans who came to f1 through drive to survive. as though that will keep f1 pure and european and whatever the fuck else - they do the same to yuki and zhou and checo and lewis and even if logan’s situation is not even remotely similar to what they’ve experienced, there’s a bias to f1 that cannot be ignored.

but that’s not the point i’m trying to make. not today

this was your dream. this was your dream. and you were never allowed to enjoy it because you became the punchline of a joke the minute you accepted the seat. it was always going to end like this. you knew that.

so yeah. congrats to logan for achieving his dream of driving in f1! it’s unfortunate that he was never allowed to live it.

Big fan of whenever a creator from one of the other languages meets Bad for the first time and he tells them his name is BadBoyHalo and explains it to them

Then they fucking hit it off and later the creator explains to him that no, he is not a bad boy, he is a good boy, he is GoodBoyHalo

ragatha SUCKS at fortnite, but shs likes to drive wrecklessly in the cars with pomni (pomni has to carry them the whole time in game)

[intheorangebedroom]

just caught up with tonight you belong to me and holy hell your writing is otherworldly. i’m in absolute awe. i’m on the edge of my seat with it all.

Hey Annette,

Wait, can I call you Annette? And can I give you a hug?

That ask is the goddamn sweetest, and so are you 🧡 I always have the toughest time processing nice words, but I hung on to yours as I was sweating blood over the next chapter. I am so thankful to you for reading and taking the time to tell me you liked it. It's so very generous and selfless and kind of you 🧡

My dearest Annette, I hope you have the bestest Frankie Friday 🧡

Hi! I have no question, I just wanna gush about ya: In The Dark ruined me emotionally. But in a good way. I genuinely love your writing. Short Days, Long Nights is absolutely brilliant 👏👏 I'm a bit of a slow reader, but rest assured, I will read everything you have written❤️❤️

I can't tell you how much I appreciate this ask ❤

In the Dark is a really special story to me for so many reasons, and I was fairly nervous about the ending when I posted it -- I did want it to hit hard emotionally, but I also wanted to make sure people felt good about it when they were done reading and this sweet comment has soothed my soul. ❤

I wish I could reach through the screen and give you a giant squeeze right now for saying these sweet things about my writing -- you are amazingly kind, and the smile on my face is so soft right now. Thank you thank you thank you ❤

Thank you also for taking the time to read anything of mine, no matter the pace -- I really appreciate it and look forward to sharing the rest of that story with you!

Thank you ❤

Posted this on my twitter but thought I'd share here too and add some fun little context !

When Ryan was signing he started telling me about an ice-cream place in LA called Jenny's and then kinda stopped and said "I'm not sure why I just told you that little fun fact " -- told him I'd check it out if I was ever in LA (and I will !)

Before Shane signed he asked me where I stood on the Boogara-Shaniac scale. I told him that mentally I'm a Shaniac but as soon as I enter a spooky place I become a Boogara because I get scared of everything. He told me that he thought that made me more of a Boogara but then wrote that, making me an official Shaniac (I'm surprised he didn't revoke my card)

I made them pins and bracelets, one of which said History Lizard, and that made Ryan laugh

I didn't give them the pins and stuff when I took my picture with them, I waited until everyone had gone. I took the stuff out of my bag and just kinda stood there cause I got super shy about it but Shane noticed and came up to me. Thanks Shane :')

Ryan's favorite color is purple fyi

Stargate is my first and most dear fandom and I was on the GateWorld Forums way back in like 2001 and at all the Gatecons but the fandom kinda died and I’ve been so alone…

ONLY TO DISCOVER THERE IS A HUGE STARGATE FANDOM ON TUMBLR??????? IN 2024????????

I AM SO HAPPY AHHHHHH

Here’s my Stargate tattoo and me in front of the actual Stargates when I was 18 🥺
