#she has excellent tastes

I made a super niche meme to demonstrate how I started watching M*A*S*H but now I'm almost finished with Adam 12 and having emotions about it and anyways it felt possibly more universal.

My mom today told me I should watch Good Omens because I’d really like it and I had to act normal about it when I told her I’d already seen it. A+ acting, I tell you.

"Do you ever get the feeling you're cracking up?"

"Do you?"

"Well, I - I was asking you."

"It's your birthday."

"Oh, I don't have birthdays anymore, I stopped having birthdays a long time ago."

"You're forty."

"That was a very cruel thing to say."

thinking about how gutwrenching the ricky nini breakup in season 2 was, entirely because of how obciously and indefensibly horrible nini was being. for the whole season but mostly how she was so fucking self centered in the treehouse that it bordered on narcissistic. the way ricky was trying everything he could to get her to give him something to work with, any kind of lifeline that she still gives a shit about him. he was practically begging for her to say "I still love you and care about you, that's not going to change even if I like a different kind of pizza or spend a lot of energy on the projects I'm working on". that's all it would have taken. all Ricky needed to hear was that she still gives a shit about him, still actually wants to be around him. and Ricky was not going to give up on her. Ricky was not about to be the one to call it quits, and Nini is such a coward that she won't outright say she wants to break up with him. it would have been so easy for her to say she wants to focus on her career but instead he was the one comforting her. it's fucking disgusting the way she treats him. and the way Ricky basically collapsed into big red's arms sobbing???? watching movies and holding a pillow (which we know he only does when he feels like absolute shit) and trying not to cry more than he has?????? jesus christ.

like how insane will it be for Ricky when he finally meets you, probably after graduating and moving away from salt lake city. you're the first person he's liked and had a proper relationship with that doesn't assume the worst of him. if you're upset about something you communicate with him about it, you listen to him and actually take his feelings into consideration. you do things for him that you know will make him happy, and you cherish the things he does for you. you think he's sweet. endearing. you support him and work together with him to meet goals and solve problems and complete tasks. he keeps waiting for the other shoe to drop, keeps trying to compensate for something because if things are this easy it must mean something's wrong. he ends up either freaking out or confronting you about why you never fight, worrying it's because you don't love him enough or you're going to break up with him or some equally incorrect fear. you ask him if he wants to fight, and he says no. he's just used to it, he realizes. the mind games with his mom and with nini have been ingraned into him, and you provide a stable place for him to start to ulearn that. you've heard some unpleasant stories about Nini and his mother, and you start to get a better idea of why he's like this. it breaks your heart that someone so sweet, one of the genuine good ones, was treated so poorly. it's so weird at first, having a relationship that has passion without always fighting and miscommunicating or getting bored of each other. he feels like you're just going to be eternally in this honeymoon phase, cozy and happy. eventually after telling him enough how amazing he is and how much you love him, how much you appreciate him and how great he is and how he deserves to be treated the way he treats people, he'll start to believe it. he might actually be able to avoid getting sucked into the same exhausted drama with Nini when he goes back home for the holidays this year. he hopes you'll want to come meet him, really get to meet his dad and Miss Jenn and his friends. if you do, you'll be able to get a glimpse of what Nini from all the stories he told you about is like. you suspect a lot of stuff, but the only thing that will surprise you is how much worse she is than you expected. luckily for Ricky, you'll be by his side the whole time to back him up.

Oh also they have adapted the Hora so like people on wheels can join or at least if they are at Simchat Torah they can get into the middle of the circle so that’s exciting.

hi andi!! I hope you're taking care of yourself outside of writing fics and working!!!

I will exchange a 🍓 for a song and also a compliment for you! so i was listening to older of monsters and men today and this song made me think of both Will and Max, both in your i know better fic and also the show itself! (i havent finished i know better yet but SOON I PROMISE)

I just want to say (if I haven't already) that you are a superb author and writer and your fics are SO good. You were the first author in the byler fandom I subscribed to bc every fic you wrote captured the characters and the vibes and the angst so so well!! Also you're super friendly and totally willing to let me send you random songs when I think of them bc I have no one else to send them to lmao you're so real for that so thank you 💜

EMMA EMMA EMMA I LOVE YOU SO MUCH OH MY GOD HI. I AM SO EXCITED I HAVE SO MUCH LOVE TO GIVE YOU WOW.

emma you are literally without a doubt in my mind one of my favorite people here. i love this little song exchange thing we've created, and i LOVE it when you come into my asks with a new song!!! i listen to so much music at work and am always thinking about songs to relate to characters, and sharing music is basically my love language, so you have nO IDEA HOW MUCH I LOVE THAT YOU STARTED THIS. I'M OBSESSED.

you are just. literally the sweetest and kindest and best person ever? like i love getting to chat with you and share music back and forth, and your friendship is just so fun!!! i always look forward to our little asks, and i am so so glad that we are friends!!!! 💖💖

also shut up stop YOU'RE GONNA MAKE ME SO EMOTIONAL. i'm so glad you like what i like!!!! i hope that i know better emotionally wrecks you (in the best way possible)

also. of monsters and men you're KILLING ME HERE DUDE. this is SUCH A GOOD SONG. also this is the second or third song we've shared that's a max/will shared song, which makes me need more madcleric vibes because i feel like they both would relate to each other so very much!!!

since you gave me a will (and max) song, i will give you a mike song in return :)

Not fitting in with high class society. Proletarian queen. Secretly wants Katya. You probably crawled out of the dirt, and love the mud. Even if you do clean up really well. Low key me, tbh.

Goncharov Uquiz time for the memes, since it’s enjoying a renaissance!

she's singing in another room and my dog is asleep at my feet. my grandma asked me why i haven't found a man yet and i laughed. oh, you know. i like my house clean.

my girlfriend is also my man is also "my partner" if i'm in a professional setting. yesterday we went to a ren faire and a man mimed at me - you're together? and at my delighted nod, his baffled, you're gay? made me laugh. a woman with rainbow hair said i love the two of you together. you're both so beautiful it's absurd.

my dad introduced my partner as my "..... friend. or whatever" the other day. he knows we're dating. in the same way, i was never able to get my sister's husband to stop saying that's gay like it's 2008. he still uses the word fa***t, and my sister's defense of him has always been well, he's just kidding.

my lover and i dance to old music in a tiny kitchen. we judge new music together and take food critique very seriously. we watch love is blind before we fall asleep and agree that if they had a queer season, it would be bloody but also make for excellent tv. of fucking course queer people would know someone for only 2 weeks and agree to get married. what are you saying.

at a bar with friends, a man puts his hand on my wrist. got a boyfriend? and yes, i do have a boyfriend, she's amazing. i am texting her while i wander around a gas station named after geese. i am visiting a swing state for a wedding. in the candy aisle i overhear: she's actually like a lesbian it's disgusting. two teenage girls with packaged sandwiches in their hands, giggling. no literally, like. i'm not, like. okay with her being there while we're all, like, naked and changing.

my girlfriend and i tailgate, drink gin and cider out of cups. from the frat group beside us, a man corrects himself with one of his friends: bro, i mean, nonbinary entity, and it makes everyone around him laugh, myself included. he razzes his friend the same way i would have killed for at 19 years old - like nothing happened, he continues: you apply sunscreen like an alien. he does a little sassy (and fairly accurate) dance interpretation of the motion. his friend is laughing so hard they're crying.

i am lucky, i live in a safe neighborhood in a safe state. my masc passenger princess comes up from DC. i drive her for an hour to where all the leaves are a violent arrangement of color. we walk along the trails, letting autumn into our blood. in this part of the state, there's a lot of pickup trucks and trump signs. when we chastely kiss before getting into the car, i accidentally make eye contact with a woman holding her child's wrist. she looks disgusted. she looks fucking pissed.

two hours later my girl and i are eating dinner on a patio, soaking in the last warmth of new england sun before the chill of winter sets in. we are giggling and trying to talk through plastic vampire teeth. at another table, i see a young woman sit up straighter. i watch her watch us. she blushes and takes her partner's hand from across the table. shy, like the taste of evening has just become something deeper.

it's worth it for this moment, i think. my lover is still humming the same song she's been singing for four days straight and i don't want to kill her for it. her guitar is beside my bed. her toothbrush is in my bathroom. in a few moments i will make us lunch. we are lucky enough to have found each other. it is lucky enough to be in love.
