#coffee time y'all

[thejakeformerlyknownasprince]

You're allowed to call it "grief."

If I can get personal on y'all for a second... A therapist once told me that you're allowed to grieve for a place. (We moved a lot when I was a kid. It wasn't great.)

Tumblr is a place, and place is important. It's friends. It's shelter. It's comfort and routine, continuity between who you were and will be. And to leave a place is to suffer a loss, not like losing a person but still painful. Not the end of the world, but the end of a world that helped shape who you are.

You'll make new friends. Your new room will be better. That can be true, while not changing that you will lose touch with many of the people you love right now, you will lose the shelter you spent so long crafting.

Tumblr's terminal diagnosis has been a long time coming. And I give it solidly 50-50 odds on still being around a year from now. The Five Stages model may not replicate, but here's something that does: anticipatory grief. The grief of knowing that a loss is coming, a sad and strange gift that gives you time to get things in order and say all that you want to say with your goodbye.

So: thank you, everyone, for the last decade of silliness and righteousness, wisdom and stupidity. I'm hoping for another 10 years on this hellsite, but I'm also letting myself grieve.

#tumblr #about the blogger #sorry to get hella personal on y'all #it's back to animorphs after this i promise #i just #you're allowed to be sad when your favorite coffee shop shuts down or the house you grew up in gets sold #if this all sounds obvious to anyone: i'm glad to hear it #for me - it blew the top of my head off the first time i was told

#it's me i'm the wind blowing #y'all things are a little more complicated when it comes to these two #(sits down and takes a sip from my dark blue coffee mug) #(thinks: i wish i had springtrap coffee mug) #so... #both of them have difficult pasts #both are parents trying their best on raising their children #THE THING IS #one can't let herself get too attached #while the other is still afraid all humans are the same #but at the same time. they just want to find peace and happiness #and they've found it at home #they found happiness living those very brief and mundane moments #like waking up every morning #having breakfast next to people that make you smile #making your way to school/work and seeing sunlight pass through the trees #and going home after a tough day and there are rain clouds approaching. you just know you're going to sleep well at night #this is how they heal. and in the mean time. let themselves open up to each other #I have a feeling this is gonna be a slow burn kinda thing #COUGHING REALLY HARD #ENDING THIS RIGHT HERE OKAY BYE #starbstalks #springdad au

Crying because Gwen knew of the many possibilities of gwens and spidermans falling inlove and she didn't mind at all. And with her being the spiderman in this scenario and her peter now gone, wouldn't that make her safe from death? But then she thought of Miles. Now STEP.ASIDE. cuz why on earth would she think about Miles if she hadn't already fallin in love with him hUH?

Think about it... she's the one who started this whole conversation at the clock tower. There's no reason for her to do that if she doesn't even consider him a love interest. And like that other post i saw, she hesitated because the 2nd part of this love story is the ultimate deal breaker. But she waited on Miles to respond. She wanted Miles to take the LEAD. That's why his response easily put her at ease.

#fuuuuu---- #yall telling me she doesn't feel anything for him?? when literally all she thought abt #was falling inlove with him #whether she should give up on him or pursue him so she told miles #wondering how would he respond #and like a sign from heavens above he said there's a first time for everything #so she took his answer to heart #y'all should know im on my 4th cup of coffee #yeah im spitballing sorry not sorry #gwiles #ghostflower #atsv #miles x gwen #gwen x miles #gwen stacy #miles morales #spider man across the spider verse #across the spiderverse

The Queen and her Advisor / The Explorer and her Knight

#Janeway/Tuvok #Tuvok #Kathryn Janeway #Janeway #they have a very specific vibe to me #medieval au ??? #st voyager art #st voyager #are y'all picking up what I'm putting down??? Seeing the vision??? <- excited #sometimes a man and a woman have a queer thing going on #Real 'blood pact' vibes #forget all the time that Tuvok is an archer - underutilized!!! I must remember this #archery and orchid growing...<3 so REFINED #Janeway & Tuvok are both equally refined and curious (ready to throw down) #they're having tea & coffee together and discussing music but then they hear about some interesting activity outside the castle walls #and they look at each other and KNOW they're gonna check that shit out tonight #They disguise themselves so they don't look like royalty but it's VERY obvious from how they speak and conduct themselves v_v

Vanessa: You know, sometimes I really think I can be too straight. Prince, covered in bi merch and sipping an iced coffee: Sucks to be you.

#a hat in time #queen vanessa #ahit queen vanessa #ahit prince #prince #I would love to see a drawing of Prince in Bi merch with an iced coffee #just saying #also what are y'alls headcanon sexualities for Vanessa other than straight?

I'm so lucky to have had nothing but good commission experiences in my small art career so far y'all are always such a blast to work with :')

anyway look at what I woke up to

#reading an email. crying a lil <3 #I hope !!! I am equally as nice to work with and make it a good experience for y'all right back :') #I literally able to do my dream job bc of y'all (part time and inconsistently but one day hopefully full time) and I appreciate it so much #ANYWAY GONNA GO MAKE COFFEE AND SET UP IN THE STUDY #we have an inspection today but my schedule is clear so I can watch Supernatural and hyperfocus on comms today >:3c #gonna move the lil gremlin in the doorways bed so he can chill under my desk today <3 #nadine is typing...

I understand the dril candle.tweet

#having breakfast and coffee by two candlesticks and a pillar candle before the sun rises #I feel like 5am wakeup is a baked in character trait now #When I get a job where I don't leave at 6:30 for a 1.5 hr commute it'd be over for y'all #If not for the fact that the time id spend reading would be substantially reduced probably #So it would balance out

[hibernationsuit]

tfw u already have some problems with sleeping enough, and now your job's getting harder and you have to wake up alone bc your wife's job is also getting busier bc they're working on some colony ship...and you get a headache from accidentally staring at the rising sun. oh well at least there's your cat.

#dedicating this to all my homies who have a hard time waking up. we can do it y'all 😔👍 #my art #my ocs #oc: tobias #the outer worlds oc #u may notice the cloud theme on his bathrobe shoes & giant coffee cup btw. they're from a same set. #klara got it for him hehehehe <3 #oc: melody #<- FORGOT THE KITTY #the outer worlds

my closest, longest friendship has completely blown up and ended and the thing i'm most upset about?

she stole my $16 secondhand billabong jacket 😭😭😭

#i've been mourning this friendship for months #bc she's been treating me so terribly so like. i'm not THAT upset now about it #but im so upset about my fucking jacket man 😭😭😭😭😭 #i loved that jacket!!! i wore it all the time!!!! #it's my favourite jacket!!!! #it's perfect for smoking!!!! #i don't have a smoke jacket anymore!!!! #y'all im actually so fucking upset by this #i want my jacket back 😭😭😭😭😭 #i'll never forget you jacket #maybe i can hold her shit hostage #the handful of movies and her coffee table that are in my house #will stay here until i get my jacket back #is it petty? yes. do i care? no #ignore this #personal rambles #not stargate

#bonus under the cut where they're just a tiny bit closer because i couldn't decide which one was better #lairon #lairon is also pretty good. they have this Really big nose thing happening here which i'm not sure if it's supposed to be a nose or not #but it definitely looks like one from this angle. it definitely Looks like they're snifsnifsnifsniffing that kind of vibe #even though it's kinda on the top of their head. either way lairon is a steel-type and that's inherently cool #i very much like steel-types that look less like Objects or Mechanisms and more like Creatures. Animals. but that's just my personal taste #notably it's also part rock-type because reasons i guess so 4x weakness to fighting my belovèd. just like weavile #and ground also. but at least the rock typing nullifies steel's weakness to fire! in exchange for. a weakness to water #ahh well i dunno anything about the stats of this bitch. i assume they're good and very tanky because steel-type but i'm not #gonna look it up. i usually do but i am tired this morning and i need to just get some coffee and take my meds so i can call someone to #come pick me up and take me to fedex because i don't have a fucking car anymore and also driving is very scary and hard #probably my grandma. which is ironic because she's the one i sold my car to. she'd be taking me to fedex in my own car‚ technically #i dunno y'all. i need to work‚ too‚ so i should probably stop writing. y'all have a good day. brits out there take care with the heat wave #if that's still going on by the time this posts

[bigcats-birds-and-books]

disgusted and appalled to report that i am so so so sleepy after going to bed at 2:30 this morning when i KNEW my alarm would be coming for me at 8:40

#text #personal #y'all im so fucking tired there is NOT enough coffee in the WORLD for this #whine whine whine #did i do this to myself? yes. #however please consider: i cannot go from Writing to Off like flipping a switch anymore (if i ever could) #so if write til midnight to hit card goals then get dopamine high from accomplishment #i gotta spend some time coming Down #and thats how it gets to be 230AM on a school night.. . . #this time yesterday i was finally carrying my coffee upstairs lmao #i am. perhaps not built for office work huh. #nano #nano2023 #wf

[magentagalaxies]

also speaking of (date post + kithfluencer post) on my coffee-date today i of course got on the topic of kids in the hall (in my defense they asked about the doc i'm making lmao) and they hadn't heard of scott thompson before so they were asking me to explain what his work was like and long story less long that's how i ended up essentially reciting the "faggos" sketch to my crush this morning

#i didn't say ''faggot'' out loud bc there were a ton of little kids in the coffee shop for some reason???? so i had to be all ''f-slur'' #but they still got the vibe and thought the sketch was really funny #i might have to just resort to flirting with this person by trying to get them into kids in the hall #bc i am such a fucking mess romantically like y'all have no idea i am an awkward disaster #if you ever think i have my shit together just bc my comedy career seems to be going great #just know my professional/creative life is going like a billion times better than my romantic life lmao #so low key maybe i'm so neurodivergent that my version of flirting is just ''hey wanna learn about this 90s sketch show'' #who knows maybe since scott's coming to campus in february i can get scott to be my wingman lmaooo

The other day hubs was going to clean the balcony with the pressure washer, but he doesn't own waterproof shoes, which resulted in the following conversation:

Him: I'm gonna clean the balcony, can I wear your wellies?

Me: my wellies

Him: yes

Me: my EU size 37 wellies

Him: yes

Me: for your EU size 43 feet

Him: I mean they'll stretch, right?

Me: ...

-later-

Himself, having fruitlessly attempted to get his foot into one of my wellington boots: hm no. That's a bit tight.

Me: you think???

#underrated himbo #a parttime himbo as it were #remind me to tell y'all about the time he put yoghurt into his coffee bc we ran out of milk

[blujayonthewing]

friend we're visiting: y'all hype?? how are you feeling about traveling?

me today: [got up, ate breakfast, sat in the garden and painted in my sketchbook, felt tired and shaky afterward]

#haha I'm in danger :) #I literally just sat in a chair eating breakfast and painting... y'all I am Nervous about camping in the mountains lol #we're not JUST doing that but a lot of the things she threw out there as stuff she wants to show us is still like #'big interactive art installment/ museum you walk around in' or like 'cool places to go shopping' #I'm WORRIED and also I'm FRUSTRATED I wanna do COOL THINGS I wanna HAVE FUN I wanna GO CAMPING #flying for the first time since Before is already gonna be mentally and emotionally taxing just for starters... #I DUNNO I haven't been sleeping enough... maybe today is about coffee and not enough sleep #maybe everything's fine! and I'll get to have fun!! and not spoil anyone else's fun!! #I guess we'll just find out huh!!! #about me

[thoughtfullyrainynightmare]

A very happy weekend everyone~! ^^

#personal #I really wish that y'all have a nice one #That you find joy from the little things in life #Hubby for example truly enjoys having a cup of coffee and a pastry in the afternoon #Just quietly sipping it while watching outside #It sounds like such an 'old people thing' to do but life's simple pleasures really is the thing #For me it's being able to light a candle at the end of the day and just lie on the bed #Just excist and watch the little flame of the candle #If life is not being good rn #I promise it will get better #Just make little steps towards your goals #Wherever that may be #Each day #It's about the journey #And cherish the good people in your life #The good moments; being alright in the moment #But also... Be the MC of your own life #Wear that outfit #Do that make up; or not #The person you're going the spend the most time in your life #Is you #So make sure you like the person you are
