I was curious about this post's origins, so I looked up Holiland, and it turns out that Rick and Morty collaborated with a Chinese bakery! It's adorable.

#food tie-ins can be tacky but this is SO cute #great collaboration #rick and morty #holiland #merchandise #food

I don't know why but when I'm home long enough I'll just turn into a teenager again. Fighting over stupid things. Crawling into my room afterwards

#My mum got this rule about not going to bed angry #Because what if something happens (tm) #And she usually comes into my room after a fight to talk it out #Which is tacky but works #And yeah that's some teenage shit but like I'm living with her like I'm a teen rn #And she didn't do that today? #She just went to bed? #And I won't see her tomorrow until the evening #So now I'm like oh great I'm going to be paranoid about something bad happening all day because that's what she always talked about #And all of this because of the dishes??? #What am I? 12? #And I was just like annoyed #Because it's an annoying situation #Have you ever washed dishes in the bathtub? It sucks #And my mum always expects me to jump immediately and it was 8pm so of course I was annoyed #And she's suddenly like if you don't stop it I'll throw it all out of the window #While holding my favourite cup #And obviously she didn't but I was shocked she'd shout that just over dishes? #Anyway I really really need to know what's happening with my future because I am going mad

I'm literally vibrating with excited for this wartime fic!!! Can you tell what time the fic is set in ? As in how old are they/years since Hogwarts or do you dont want to tell yet ;)

Ah thanks, Anon! I'm so happy someone is excited 😅 I've been writing this for so very long, and it is itself so very long, so it is very reassuring to think that anyone might read it when it posts!

Funnily enough you've picked up exactly one of the questions I had for myself about the fic. I find as I get older (and maybe because i seem to be working through all my little traumas by writing about them haha) i am quite interested in writing them older. In fact, my next long fic plan (a sort of political, forced marriage fic) involves them as parents, with a magical Dursley baby, and Harry and Draco on the run with their kids.

However for this fic, I went back and forth and back and forth about their ages.

Some backstory: before the events of the fic occur, Draco joins the Order after 6th year, then he helps with the Horcrux hunts. They then spend a year living in Grimmauld together with their families, and become close friends, but then Draco fucks off abroad without telling Harry or saying goodbye.

The fic kicks off years later, with Ron being kidnapped, and when he goes to rescue him, Harry sees a familiar face... At first I was going to make it ten years later, so they'd have been 28. But the more I wrote the more I felt like that length of time wasn't working for the type of characters they were turning into, and the sort of lives they'd been living all that time. So in the end I brought the timeframe back to seven years after they leave school. It means they're mid-20s rather than late; it's long enough for the war to have really ground them down, but not so long that they've totally lost all hope for change.

It was important to me too that there's a sense of some real political and social adjustments in the world of the fic. As in, the wizarding population has been living through years and years of war, and there are political implications and boundary lines and changes to Hogwarts, and so on. I wanted to make sure that enough time had passed for those changes to be really embedded. These people can barely remember what life was like before the war.

It was a really tricky thing to decide on, and I'm still not sure that I shoiuldn't have made it even earlier. I do still have to finish the fic, and then it will need massive edits (not least because the earlier chapters were all written two years ago!) so maybe that'll change again, I don't know. But you can assume they'll be in their 20s at least.

Thanks again for your interest, it's very kind of you!

#so nice of you anon #it warms my heart #and again thanks to my poor fth bidder #who has been so patient and so kind #such bad luck that writing this coincided with real life taking over #also i have never written anything close to this length before #i had not anticipated the level of writer's block #the need to step away from it at times #it's been such a great learning curve #anything i share about this fic is tagged btw #tacky's fth #lmao at my optimism in making a tag for it #'if i tag it i'll def get it finished sooner'

and it’s finally bedtime yayyyy. got home from work genuinely 30 minutes ago which is evil especially due to the fact i just showered and now i have to go to sleep with wet hair which is my nightmare. having to go to sleep with wet hair is what made me insane and suicidal my first semester of college and i’m not even kidding. ok it was one factor but it truly was that serious you had to be there oh my god

#i LIKE to shower in like. the post dinner evening so when it’s NIGHT i can go to bed with dry hair #but when i had to live in the dorms i hated it and didn’t want to be there so i spent all hours of the day at the library or outside or the #dining hall and didn’t come back until i was ready to shower and go to sleep. which meant i always had to sleep with wet hair #and there was no air conditioning or like. ventilation. so it would rarely even dry by morning #which made me an insane person for real #and that was when i cut it all off… and the way i dressed made me look like an extra in dead poets society for months it was terrible #i mean it was the vibe at the time but i would never do that now #actually being into dead poets society at the time was the best thing for it frankly. i would think about killing myself and then be like #no that would be so tacky to do when everybody knows i like this movie 🙄 i was like nah it would be cringe guess i’ll stay alive til spring! #great times loved reminiscing on that era with everyone <3 and aren’t we all glad that’s behind us!!!

is titans (2018) one of my all time favourite shows? yes. is it also the objectively worst thing i've ever watched, like actually? pretty much

#i love the little guys they blorbo so hard #the effects are pretty cool most of the time. kory's fire thing looks a little tacky sometimes #i love the fight scenes #the plot is ok-ish. enough to make me go mostly insane over it #the script isn't always great #the plot holes are god awful #lots of things get left unresolved #but it's MY show #i like it that way #plus it scares everyone off #that's why i'm only watching season 4 now for the first time #it scared me off too #titans #teen titans #dc #. #gothihop speaks

Kind of amazed at the reveal that Ichiban's mom is apparently a mixed Japanese and indigenous Hawaiian woman, bc I've always hc he was mixed race. Unless the game reveals that she lied about her heritage or something, I'm just pleasantly surprised that Ichiban being mixed is canon

#like I love Jolyne as well for that (among many other reasons) but with Ichi esp I can relate to the potential disconnect he has #with his family heritage that he never got the chance to take part in and learn about #obviously our situations are different but id love to see Ichi learn about Hawaiian culture and get outside the tacky rich tourist areas #while hes there. and im rly hoping the game tries to touch on the rly weird and depressing dilemma in Hawaii of marketing your culture #to exist in a dwindling economy that depends on tourism #ive seen activists describe the tourism of Hawaii as cultural prostitution with how it warps the culture to be tourist friendly #so i hope Ichiban gets to enjoy the fun tourist mini games and side stories but also see the darker side of Hawaii #it would be a great mirror to the flash of Kabukicho and Yokohama that hides the lurking underworld and societal dysfunction of the Yakuza #aaaaaAAAAA THIS SERIES #sloot plays #like a dragon 8 spoilers #.like a dragon

[ladyfenring]

are people actually sad that the great isn't getting renewed after that third season?? i feel like the season finale could not have been more of a graceful goodbye

#a fourth season would have been so tacky and unwelcome #the entire second half of season 3 was saying goodbye!!!!! #it is OKAY to let things end!!! #it is good even!!! #one could say...great

Christmas haul 2022!

Marie and Oliver earrings!

Herbie and Toothless decals for my VW bug Herbie named Toothless. :D

A cozy Chosen hat that kept my ears very warm on this very cold day.

A FIRST EDITION C.S. Lewis book about my second favorite book of the Bible- the Psalms! This was my Christmas Eve gift so I read a little of it already and it was really good! Very thought provoking.

A Yoditio! He’s an animatronic one so he moves and makes noise and interacts with props! He’s really cool!

WINGFEATHER SAGA HOODIE. This is the softest sweater I have ever owned in my life and it is so lovely- pictures do not do it justice.

Speaking of The Wingfeather Saga- my dad gave me this THAGS Journal which I was thrilled about and then my uncle, completely unrelated, gave me this quill pen and ink?! They even match?!?! So, uh, I know what I’m going to be writing in the THAGS journal with. And finally, introducing, in all his full color, dragon glory, ALMITAK!

This is the space dragon from my sci fi book series, The SOS Chronicles! I painstakingly drew a reference picture of him and gave it to my mom so she could try to custom order him for a Christmas present. It wasn’t easy, but she actually managed to work it out and I am THRILLED with the result. Pictures do not do the colors justice; the blues and purples are all swirled together in with glitter to give him a galaxy look. The gold is a little more on the wings than I drew, but it’s fine, it’s a minor thing. Also he moves and is very posable- his wings even swivel and open and close! He is super amazing and detailed and absolutely awesomeatic.

#christmas #dragons #the chosen #the wingfeather saga #yodito #grogu #C.S. Lewis #herbie! #toothless #the aristocats #I'm very happy with everything I got #Idk even where to start with it all #I love my new Tacky so much tho #the wingfeather hoodie and the chosen hat are the COZIEST things #my mom and I both got a yodito (my dad found them on a really great deal) and we were playing with them a lot today xD #what's the point in being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes? #I might make another post specifically about how cool my almitak dragon is #it was a very good christmas :) #(I very much enjoyed giving gifts too- I had a lot of fun ones I got to give out :)

i like working from home but i do like having the odd in-station shift if only so i can show up to work in THE tackiest pink and white gingham "vibing on a covered wagon on the oregon trail" cottagecore-but-worse prairie dress. it even has an apron and puffy sleeves with lace trim. my fashion sense is as much abour asserting dominance as it is about looking good

#mind you this dress looks good on me. tackiness is a good thing sometimes u know what i mean? #i don't know what it is about fashion that brings me so much serotonin #unironically one of the great joys of my life is just dressing obnoxiously in public #usually i majorly Fall Off during the summer but this year i am determined to continue dressin on em during the hot season

i actually don't hate elvis anymore

#relevant news i recently watched his biopic #listen the biopic formula is very old by now but every one in a while it makes for a comforting watch #the editing was so jarring sometimes lol. like the comic book aesthetics are very creative but the cuts in between shots are sometimes so ? #tom hanks was There. he didn't do much but He Was There #austin was great tbh #overall the movie was a decidedly tacky but honestly.. a little camp? which is all that matters at the end of the day
