#My life

[not-terezi-pyrope]

Man I miss the old Homestuck days so much. Closest I've ever felt to really belonging to something bigger than me, a unified purpose and community and identity and I guess cause even, centered around something I found uniquely compelling and important, even if only because I was a teenager and as such could trick myself into believing it was really that important.

Closest I've ever felt to what it must be like to be in a cult, the hidden recognition of other fans holding something in common in comparison to the outside world, the culture of special outfits and symbols (horns, God Tier cosplay), I used to wear my old sign of the signless under my clothes as a hidden marker of allegiance, lol. And if that's what being in a cult feels like even 5% I see why people go for that, it fucking ruled.

Just nearly went to Wawa's in my PJs because fuck clothes, only for my brain to go,

"No.

"You know better than that. You are better than that. It's two in the morning.

"Dress like you just got out of a cult meeting. Give the employees something to potentially talk about."

So anyway, put on the black cotton tunic, the silky sage green tabard, and the green-and-black tiger-print scarf as a sash, have actively not brushed my hair, gonna go get a chickn sammich! <3

I'm gonna be a poppa!

Hi folks! I don't often talk about my life online (ironic considering how open I am about everything!), but I wanted to share with y'all:

We have a little bean - which we made all by ourselves - with a due date in December!

Long ago, I'd kinda given up on ever becoming a dad, but then I got lucky enough to find my person, and she wanted a child, and it just so happens that despite a lot of complications we're able to get pregnant.

And now we're gonna have a child!

The whole universe feels bigger now, just bursting with fresh potential. The future - something I've always been excited about and look forward to - feels more... I dunno, brighter, realer, something that holds an even more important place in my heart, mind, and spirit than ever.

I'm investing in the future in a way I've never been so deeply invested before, because a little spark we made will grow into a person and mind who'll continue to explore those unseen lands and contribute to the human experience well beyond our lifetimes.

And that's wondrous.

(sonogram under a cut for those who don't wanna see such)

There's our little bean! Barely identifiable as human, but REAL!

Apparently their little eyes are beginning to form, and heart, and their brain and spinal cord are piling on 250,000 new cells every minute. And their wee tail is getting longer.

What magic is biology!

"Fuck you," I whisper as I put on another god-awful movie pecause it stars that one actor that I'm obsessed with right now for some reason, "Fuck you so much."

#my life #is just one bad movie after the other #as i scrape the content barrel looking for anything i haven't yet seen of this asshole

RIDDLE ME THIS

what could make two or three teeth (two upper one lower, same area) KINDA ache, but only when I'm NOT chewing or biting down on something.

It doesn't HURT hurt it's just kind of annoying? I ask this in poor american, who cannot afford dentists unless it's a real emergency (bc in america somehow TOOTH health is separate from the rest of the body health. bc that makes sense. to someone presumably)

The best piece of advice I ever got was not meant as advice, but as an edict. If I was going to threaten people as a joke, it had to be so far out of proportion with what happened that it would be obvious I was joking. This changed how I expressed frustration with others. It then changed how I expressed frustration with myself.

Not “I’m going to hit you” but “I am going to buy a tuna sub from the gas station and hide it under the seat of your car”

Not “I’m going to kill myself” but “I am going to walk into the desert and let the scarabs take me”

The other side then happened. When I mess something up, instead of saying it’s bad and perpetuating negative thoughts, swing hard the other way.

Not “this art is terrible” but “this shall be framed and mounted on the wall in my museum exhibition as testament to the suffering I had to overcome”

Have been doing this since high school. It was my drama teacher who asked me to please stop scaring the actors. The other half of the edict was that I had to say it in a polite tone, and end it with either please or thank you.

Life changing. 10/10 Mr Muëller. Highly reccomend.

My brother-in-law has a Thing where he gives me increasingly rare copies of The Bee Movie and it’s long since gone from “Goofy running gag” to “I don’t know how much money he’s willing to commit to this bit and it Scares Me.”

Where the fuck can we go from here

#my life #bee movie #he’s already given me the academy For Your Consideration copy #and copies in greek mandarin and korean #AND copies of the bee movie video game AND pez dispensers AND christmas ornaments #AND bee movie converse sneakers distributed only to members of the cast and crew #at this point i fully expect to find the severed head of jerry seinfeld in a box this christmas #10k #20k

When a student copies an essay online instead of writing it and then painstakingly changes every word to a synonym until the text no longer makes any sense...

call that the Ship of Thesaurus

That neurodivergent feel when you are ordering food/going to a restaurant and you are like "hmm what shall I order today" but then every time you wind up getting exactly the same thing you ordered last time.

Not because you are dedicated to sticking to the same food mind, but because you are optimizing for the same criteria as before ("tastes nice") and after running that procedure through their menu you realized that you've come out to the exact same result as last time and so you never end up eating anything different, lmao.

"Why not just have something different then" but then I would be having something that. Tastes less optimally nice why would I do that

Several of my friends who previously self-identified as bi are realizing they've lost interest in men, generally speaking

A friend of mine who's identified as a lesbian her whole life fell in love with a very sweet and shy man

I lost interest in men a few years ago, fell in love with a non-binary person, and now I give them their T shots

Life and love are unpredictable

And "queer" is a great word that all of us like and self-identify with (along with our other, more specific labels), and I love that no matter what else happens, we're still, always queer

Also. In other news from this morning.

I got a work email and one of the guys included on it has an email that takes the form of first-initial-part-of-lastname, which, yknow, generally works well

But his name is Mario Pregler

And the psychic damage I took as a result of seeing the email [email protected] at 9 in the morning cannot be overstated

#my life #i could not react at all #bc. yknow. work environment #but i just stared at it for several minutes #trying to not die

[vaspider]

Literally me about 2 minutes ago before I ordered this.

I just looked up at @apocalycious with big eyes and said "it's oooonly eighteen dollars!"

(she said I could order it)
