I saw the Northern Lights and I’m having an extreme emotional reaction excuse me
#I always planned on going somewhere else to see them#never in a million years thought I’d see them at home#it was like when I went to the Grand Canyon#I went because everyone hyped it up and it was on my way home#then I got to the grandview point#I climbed out to a pillar I really shouldn’t have#one lady was yelling about it the entire time#but then other people joined me#it was probably one of the most peaceful moments in my life#that’s what tonight was#profound peace#pure awe and wonder#a desperate wish that I also am part of those colors and swirls that inspire so much#I might not be much#but maybe the collection tells these stories#please don’t ruin them.#northern lights#aurora borealis#EDIT: I live in the east coast of the USA & I was roadtripping back from the west coast#which is why I mention stopping at the Grand Canyon#my sister and I roadtripped to get me there but we got snowed in at flagstaff and couldn’t go to the canyon#so I went on my way back#I had a whole national park tour planned#and I arrived 3 days later than intended specifically because of the Grand Canyon and Grabd Teton

“If you believe that then I have a bridge to sell you” is one of my favorite expressions specifically because every time I hear it I think of the one well known case of a guy actually buying a bridge
In 1968 Robert McCulloch bought the London Bridge from the City of London for 2.46 million dollars. He then had all the exterior bricks sent all the way across the ocean and across most of the US to Lake Havasu, Arizona, where it was reconstructed around a steel and concrete frame, which cost an additional 7 million dollars.
#it’s still there#I went on it like a decade ago bc my mom thought it’d be a cool vacation destination#(we also went to Sedona and the Grand Canyon and other places. not JUST the London bridge)

If you were a gorgon, what species of snake would you want for hair? You can safely style them any way you want too
ohhh this is a good question.... the obvious answer is some sort of aquatic snake to let me be a little mermaid type creature, but snake. coral reef snakes (not just plain corals) are venomous and cool looking and would make for awesome hair
for just generally cool looking hair... probably a bush viper!! spiny bush vipers specifically. or dragon snakes, i mean look at both of these guys
for color, there arent blue snakes, so.... pink! both coachwhips and rattlesnakes... both of them can appear a salmon-y pink, or close to it.
#hehe thanku this was an incredibly fun thing to consider#shrubmeister#there are other factors to consider. like behavior?#but tbh id probably go with rattlesnakes no matter what though#the pink ones can only be found in the grand canyon. so im living in the grand canyon :3#and rattlesnakes have amazing temperaments so :3

#Mouse talks!#clenches fist. I may never get to write it but the ot3 Grand Canyon road trip in my heart rides immortal#briefly debated doing Greeneday + Cordano also but that would be like all nine songs right there and I wanted to get a good spread loL#snatching lyrics from all over the song to highlight the important bits.

Okay back to my usual branding
#I find it unreasonably funny that my 'brand' ended up being nevada when I have never even set a single foot in that place#I know almost nothing about the place other then las vegas is there and maybe the grand canyon and there is also snow#(also im sad that I missed beanieduo content because of my stupid fucking job ;u;)

re: my last post also.
it has been. a Terrible few weeks. for the research-as-time-waster situation.
i did research for chapter 88 or 89 of cult au that i finally managed to use in the next chapter to post, chapter 96
at no point did the PURPOSE of this research rise above the level of "fun easter egg that means i don't have to name characters"
#writing#cult au#and i had to name characters anyway!#specifically i had to name max who danny went to the grand canyon with#you would not believe the difficult i had. coming up with max#bc i noticed in the VERY LAST round of edits after i'd like ingrained my ORIGINAL top of my head name#that i had in fact named this one-off character Dana. which is an insane choice to keep for someone DANNY is talking about#it annoyed me too much to leave it but my brain did NOT have other suggestions

disney is so grosssss
how are people my age so into disney when it's such blatant consumerism like the parks just scream "spend your money!!" and that's literally it why do people like this I'm crying pls go to a national park and witness something real in the world I beg
#this is brought to you by 3 of my good friends have turned into disney adults and i don't get itttt#my bestie is talking about how she wishes she could go to a disney channel night#girl you've never seen the grand canyon.#she showed me a tik tok of the night and it's literally just hey buy stuff and take photos#like i don't wanna hate on other people's hobbies/joy but surely there's more to this world than nostalgia bait and consumerism

Honestly considering their programming just makes them Like the fox i'll choose to believe Peter's unwavering lust is just a Kennedy thing and that he and Jack are just insane
#luly talks#dsaf#well i guess some other phones really liked him like grand canyon guy who was madly in love but#its still funny to think peter is a freak
