#i have too much fucking tea

[halfpastdead]

i ordered a deranged amount of tea on black friday

#it just arrived…. #65 teabags lololol #what was i thinking #who wants to come over for a tea party??? #i have too much fucking tea #it’s a small local biz tho so i’m glad to support i guess #we’re lookin at an assam with orange peel bergamot and cornflower #and a red rooibos with mint and warm spice

with the focus on the revolving door again in ep 16, i just want to say a little smth abt the door as an autistic person myself.

i know some ppl are frustrated with wyw's difficulty in using the door, saying it infantilizes her and that "she's a 27 year old lawyer, she's seen a revolving door before, she knows how they work." but the thing is, it's not abt her being familiar with revolving doors at all. at least not in the way you think. it's not "oh look at this lady, she doesn't understand this door bc she's autistic." it's a sensory issue.

autism affects our senses and the way we process them. what many allistics don’t understand about autism is that we’re not just overly sensitive to sounds and bright lights. we can be underly (is that a word??) sensitive to stimulus as well and have a hard time controlling our senses. this includes all seven senses. that right, seven. there’s the five you know, but also two you probably don’t: the vestibular sense and proprioception. these two have to do with body awareness, balance, and spatial orientation. that’s why many of us walk “weirdly” (if i ever catch you saying someone walks weirdly i am coming into your house and punching you in the face) or are clumsy. we have issues with our bodies in relation to the world around us and often have a hard time balancing. i walk into walls all the time and miscalculate and walk into doorways instead of through them. 

so it’s not that wyw doesn’t understand the social concept of a revolving door, but that they’re difficult to navigate through due to her vestibular and proprioceptive sensory issues. i myself have a hard time with revolving doors! so pls no more “this makes her look dumb” or “this is so unrealistic”. if wyw is bad representation and is stupid for having problems with a revolving door, then i’m an unrealistically stupid autistic that walks into walls.

#extraordinary attorney woo #eaw #sorry for the mini essay everything i write turns into a paper absjs also the bolding is so that it's easier to read for neurodivergents <3 #also i'm not gonna lie at first my internalized ableism took over and i was hard on wyw thinking she was making us look bad and stupid #and then i realized that *i* literally struggle with revolving doors and would have to get my dad to help me get through when i was younger #this show has honestly challenged my own internalized ableism and concept of what is and isn't acceptable autism symptoms to show #and y'know what? fuck the idea that there's a point where you're too visibly autistic! this show has made me love myself so much more #and has helped me through issues i didn't even realize i had! i didn't realize how much ableism i had internalized and held onto #it wasn't until i saw wyw do things that i had hated or berated myself for that i realized i was being too hard on myself #if i loved wyw then i had to love myself too! and on top of that seeing jun ho love her for who she was made me love myself all the more #i just really love this show flaws and all #tea talks #eaw autism science #1k

wow I didn’t think reblogging that tea post and then seeing people’s tags would deal me such strong psychic damage. come over I can fix you I can find a tea you will like. “I don’t like tea” how can you say that as a blanket statement when there are so many vastly different kinds of tea. head in hands

#‘it’s like coffee but not good’ #while a cup of black tea does have a great deal less caffeine in it than coffee #it also has a stimulant called l-theanine which is NOT found in coffee #and the more complex combination of the two stimulants hit your system much more slowly #which is why tea doesn’t give you jitters like coffee does #anyone who’s like wow I need my coffee to survive but I hate that it makes me nauseous and gives me heart palpitations and bad breath #to you I say. wean yourself off coffee and onto tea!!!!!!! #but WAIT I can keep going. nauseous? ginger tea. sore throat? peppermint contains menthol which works as a numbing agent #green and black teas are both very high in antioxidants #chamomile and lavender do both have a calming affect #BUT WHAT ABOUT THE TASTE I hear you say #IT TASTES LIKE GRASS. try a floral tea or a black tea or chai or Thai tea #ITS SO BITTER you’re either steeping it for too long or the water you’re using is too hot #not to sound like I’m fucking uncle iroh or something I just apparnerlt have strong thoughts and feelings about tea #I can’t handle ppl going ugh I hate tea and it’s like. overbrewed lipton in microwaved tap water. #anyway MY favorites are jasmine and lavender earl grey #and currently I’m really into this corn silk tea my brother bought me at h mart #it’s like gen mai cha but even more #congrats for making it this far into my tea rant tags. if you comment your tastes I can give you a personalized tea recommendation

procrastination is starting to have its consequences finally

#on my friends living room floor they love together but one of them has been london for weeks or maybe months #to be with her love. im on a foam mattress from one of their beds next to a glass bottle of water opened by one of them #in a mug given to me by another. the weather felt like my childhood today and it also felt like 2 years ago. #(put space in the heavens Einstein's idea and hes your friend too so nothing to fear) around the table they drank and laughed and i thought #i hope you keep growing so full with the love you receive . i hope your appetite becomes insatiable from how used to it you are #and i know youre all leaving soon but i hope one day you miss this and that youll be happy you miss it #its worth missing i think #i thought he didnt care but he said after exams hes going walk around this area over and over #(this is near where he lived and where we visited almost daily for a year) #(hed come across the bridge on a lake) #we went where she used to live and at the entrance a fox sat calmly. it just yawned and stared. #it felt important somehow. i think maybe their impressions of me will never be close to how i feel inside but i think #i love them enough for that not to matter. i dont think theyll ever know this. i dont think if they did it would change much. #and seeing them smile makes my heart glow anyway. today i tried their malaysian tea the ginger burned my throat #they warmed my heart. hes going to canada soon and hes going to the US soon and shes going everywhere soon ill never understand #how were supposed to live with memories and with seperation and with the past but we do it anyway so i think it doesnt matter much #i wanted to write a poem for the lab rats with the fibre optic wires lit with blue forcing them to turn around and around #something about how im sorry that the two photon arrays burned the inside of your brain. im sorry about the sharp points of multielectrode #arrayes. im sorry about everything we do to you. she asked to see me tomorrow. im trying to have self control but i miss her so awfully #last night my friend talked to me and i updated on everything that happened with love and the lack of it and she just started laughing #and she told me about the same thing from her side. and she told me about how she loved london because she would walk the streets #and she felt like the people were her. and her eyes would go over the people and the bag of bagels and the construction men they probably #have a kid at home maybe shes a daughter. this kid is crying for her mother and the building you just walked past caused #blisters and pain and people died in it and very likely people were born in it. we talked for hours and i felt like #i was holding her hand just like that time she held mine watching a horror film. i love her so much #my friend is a genius and i remember her picking up the charms of my phone and staring at the leaf hanging from them. shes side stepping to #music drinking dangerous cider and cocktails from a movie and chit chatting with billionaires and undergrads #i love her dearly. his head covered in electrodes. she tells me about a syrian guy shes in love with and she says #what you feel and what i feel is like cocaine. ive tried a lot of fucking cocaine. #she says ive reminded her of what living actually feels like and to never put energy into someone who doesnt see me this way.

look i get bton has set up some seeds (ba dum tiss?) that polin will be the pairing in the Featherington Family to have a male heir first (and it's popular in the fandom as an endgame for them) and thus will inherit the estate but

consider the following:

they find out about it and go 'ahahahah NOPE' and thus become co-conspirators to get Pru or Phillipa preggo before them. because with inheriting the estate. . .what they really inherit is the debt. and neither of them are eager for that anytime soon

so one storyline is that they're on a mission to get Prudence there first so they're always out here making very thinly veiled insinuations at PruDank and make up excuses and schemes so they're alone with each other. Penelope takes the lead for this particular side of the scheme, but they're definitely in kahoots. like Colin will lead Dankworth to places and Penelope will do the same for Prudence and whoops, look at that, what a good time for the two of you to make an heir and Penelope's there in Prudence's ear like it should be you, you're the oldest, it's your right, wouldn't you want to lord it over Phillipa forever? like the devil on her shoulder and constantly hyping her sister up because please, god, don't let it be her, she doesn't want it to be her, she is a grand total of 19 years old and she wants to fuck her husband consequence free, and she can't do this chastity shit, it's not reasonable, so Prudence, time to hop on that horse! let's up and at 'em, sis

and the other is Colin coming to Albion like 'soooooooo. . .I have to ask. . .how have you managed it?' and he's like 'managed what?' 'to be married for two years and not have a baby. I mean, I'm a newly married man and I'd like to. . .enjoy my wife before we start a family. I have to know your secret' and Albion is just there going 'huh? what secret? we've just being doing it normal?' so Colin's very concerned like 'oh no, what if i've offended him? what if they can't have kids???' and Albion and him keep talking until it becomes clear that, wait, hang on, what do you mean by normal and it finally comes out that the reason Phillipa always seems like she's got a stick up her bum is because she does so he's like 'oh fuck, oh no, oh no no no, i can't be the one to inform him that's not the way to make a baby' ala: 'you are putting it in the right place?' and he's white as a ghost like 'so very sorry, i think i left my cat on the stove, i have to go'

and Colin and Penelope come together at the end of all their schemes like 'well. . .there goes Plan A. . .and B. . .and C through G' as Penelope frantically wonders if she can get Gen to pull Prudence aside and Colin is contemplating which of his brothers he can bribe enough to have the 'So, women have multiple holes' discussion w/' Albion because he refuses to be the one to do it

meanwhile, Portia is out here making potions to try to get one of her daughters to have a baby because thus far, she's batting 0 for 3, and Polin's schemes somehow always end up in direct opposition to her schemes, thus canceling out each time

tell me that wouldn't be the funniest shit you've ever watched on this show

#polin #do i dare tag anything else? lmfao #this is kind of crack but also i desire it desperately #guess i have to write it #in particular i'm just imagining that albion-colin conversation as he gets more and more distressed #going 'what do you mean? WHAT DO YOU MEAN!?!?!' #portia out here with her teeth gritted like 'I'm going to kill Colin Bridgerton' (because he is the perma-thorn in her side) #as Penelope sips tea going 'please don't i like him too much' #neither of them realizing they're on the same side #but also Portia does NOT want it to be Polin because she's like 'good lord COLIN BRIDGERTON in charge of the estate??? he's too stubborn' #because really she's hoping it's Dankworth so she can still manipulate him and keep control #and Colin is out here hoping it is ANYONE BUT HIM because no he wants to fuck his beautiful wife in rolling fields of flowers and on beache #he loves babies but maybe they can wait until his wife isn't a literal teenager #portia and colin squabbling as penelope is there like 'you're. . .on the same side?' and they hiss going 'HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT!?'

All I've ever wanted was for Loki to just be happy, and yet the MCU is forever like

Just realized that ed is still wearing stede's tie during the kraken era and the storm. He wears it right until the very end. The only times we see him without it is when he is having a breakdown and when he's in the gravy basket. Because that version of him thinks he is unlovable and doesn't believe he should be wearing stede's tie anymore. KILL ME

you can see that he wears it until the very end in this post by @sherlockig

#might be reading too much into things or i might have missed something but oh god oh fuck #this poor man someone give him some tea #ofmd #our flag means death #edward teach #ed teach

I'm not sure if it got sent last time and I forgot what I wrote wjksowlw

“So... You're saying you want to get a strand of my hair so that your friend's husband— the Second Ranked Fatui Harbinger— can clone me?”

"... I mean, when you put it that way..."

“Is this an order from the Lord Harbinger?”

"No... We're actually still trying to convince him. He's not very open to the idea that Shiro will love another clone that isn't him."

“...”

“....”

“Out of concern curiosity, may I ask what in the world is that..... thing at the back?”

"Hm? Oh, that's just my husband's cardboard cutout for a part-time job which i most definitely didn't force on him - don't mind him, he's just vibing there!"

“...........”

...... I'm beginning to think I shouldn't have gotten involved with that teahouse....

“... I... will think about your 'proposal'.”

“....”

“....”

“....”

“But, Mx. Ansy....”

“Why go through all this trouble when you can just create another 'Jackie' using water? I heard from Miss Meirin it was your specialty, of sorts.”

How's that troublesome WIP going? And how's life - had any good cups of tea lately?

currently contemplating going into the computer and strangle every single character in this show

#I'm at about 4.3k and I don't think I can write a single more word into this thing #not because I don't find the whole fucking situation riveting. I just need to strangle them #life's been alright. term just started and I already missed a class. ah well #I started to add chocolate into my tea because it's too cold to not have chocolate in drinks #how's your life btw <333 #thanks so much for sending an ask! #hy speaks #nothing #real life stuff #does this count as a sneak peak in a wip lol #dayglomasochism

#also like. the patriars are just?? there??? #they see a grimy travelworn group of adventurers crash the archduke's coronation #and instead of kicking them out he goes 'oh heyyyyy!! ☺️☺️☺️ long time no see~ 🥰 let me update you on my - sorry - *our* evil plan!! 🤭🤭“ #and openly reveals one of the adventurers as a fucking bhaalspawn?! #he's not speaking quietly or anything #there's a very large tiefling who is on fire and getting angrier by the second so clearly SOMETHING is up #the bhaalspawn in question looks fucking pissed #did they just want the tea or #i guess it doesnt really matter what they do b/c none of that conversation leaves that room #so i think they're all just too psyched for the surprise soap opera to think about what they're hearing all the way through #anyway. i wish the game had different reactions if you've already told the party that youre a bhaalspawn #wyll gave corentin the same exact speech twice which. fair. they probably needed to hear it #but still #shadowheart's the only one who didnt react again iirc but i might have just been reeling too much from karlach's to remember it #bg3 #digital art #my art #bg3 spoilers #bg3 act 3 spoilers #corentin #bg3 wyll #bg3 karlach #bg3 shadowheart #bg3 gortash #bg3 durge #dark urge #baldurs gate 3 #bg3 tav #sketch #the prodigal saer

trying to create a watermark for gifs that isn’t distracting af and/or takes away from the overall aesthetic of the gif is so hard. Like yes I know I need to be consistent about the watermarking because I’ve now seen people steal my gifs across platforms but I fundamentally refuse to put some ugly af white text with a border anywhere on my gifs (even if it takes way more work to figure out)

#no tea no shade to people willing to do this but. I simply give too much of a fuck about aethetics to undermine the rest of the work LOL #also st sans visages will never have watermarks I don’t care #we’re like 30 sets in atp. I’m gonna finish them as is LMAO #the me tag

1. Inflection Point (I finally chose. She's just so deeply special to me. I also think that was the first work of yours I read so, there's sentimentality there.)

2. Promise Ring (I don't want to talk about it. You're never allowed to write for Dino again /hj.)

3. Mirage (Mirage Wonwoo will always be famous to me.)

4. Haox (I love suffering so.)

5. Rush Hour (It's enemies to lovers of sorts and it's Hao. It also appeals to the exhibitionist in me. RJ geared content tbh.)

Honourable mention to Favorite Poison and Again and Again though.

THE EXHIBITIONIST INMEJRIFKEE and im not gonna lie i didnt expect you to actually pull up a list of ur top 5 kai fics 😭😭😭😭 ure too good for me,, what did i do to deserve someone like you,,,

#🍵 tea time #💘 mutuals #rj 🍷 #inflection point my first love!!! #im a poly one hit wonder #still have visceral emotions abt that jeongcheol specifically.... #🥺🥺🥺 and dont you want me to write chan into a less complicated love story #and it intrigues me how you like mirage so much !! #i think i wrote that on a rainy day when i was feeling a lot bored than usual in quarantine #(bc that was originally a fic for another fandom too!) #i love you so much what the fuck!
