mr sunshine is about the resistance against tragedy in every form. separation from beloved, from family, from country, from comrades, from language, from loyalties, from friends, from your principles, everything. it's about having strength and courage and hope, fragile hope, in the face of it all. and saying love is at the center of it. despite every betrayal, fighting for it still.

Oh, I'll just look at this Futhark book really quickly while I wait for my tea water to boil, I can't possibly get to enraged in those few minutes -

WHAT?! This guy signs his name Edred godi? That is a political office. Who made you godi? What law courts are you serving at? Bikkja.

"they were bound together by a mighty guild of runemasters" no they weren't, they didn't have guilds generally. Am I crazy? Guilds came later, especially in Scandinavia, Scandinavia didn't have the population to support guilds

"who taught their craft throughout all the tribes of Northern Europe" no they for sure did not, I assure you that Finnish magic was very separate. At the very least.

"For if we are to believe their lore, those ancestors never died but rather were reborn" no they did not, there is nothing about reincarnation in Norse mythology, are you thinking of Hinduism. Norse mythology is very clear that everybody who died goes to Hel unless you died in battle and were chosen by Valkyries (Valhalla) or possibly if you were a maid and got to go serve... Gefjun, I think it is, I learned about this last night from an Old Norse textbook from a reputable scholar and I may have issues with his translations but at least I know I'm getting closer to reading original sources instead of nonsense.

One of these days I will make it past the forewords and introductions to the actual text. Not today.

are you coming here

my fingers itch and scrabble for the loose pull of your sweatshirt

are you coming to me

i wish you were here i think about seven million times a day

you, to me? for me?

we belong to each other in my head

me, for you. always.

and sometimes i think you think i am yours and you are mine

come home please and thank you

home is the leather of your passenger seat. home feels like the rubber stitching on worn, sun-cracked leather.

can i join you?

home sounds like an aux cord passed back and forth, a phone pressed into my palm with trust that i will fill you with the right noise

i'm glad you're here

we're friends, and the sky is bright blue. the sun has finally come out to say hello. the rain gives way to colors dancing in your side mirrors.

call me when you're home

friends friends friends friends friends the word thrums happily in my chest friends

Why does the healthy peanut butter with only two ingredients (peanuts, a pinch of salt) cost more than the regular..........

I get that the regular peanut butters have fillers and longer shelf lives, but the healthier, purer picks ain’t got twice as many bloody peanuts in!!!

One of the things that really piss me off about living with an assortment of fluctuating chronic pain conditions is that...

I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that I am very strong and very brave, and I have a 100% track record of surviving Hard Things, and most of the time I conquer them and make them bow to me. I can do anything I put my mind to, and I have a solid body of evidence proving that I've previously done so.

Except when the pain hits and I can do nothing at all and have to lie down and eat on my painkillers' schedule. I am still very strong (when I worked at an animal rescue, I could manage the 'two handlers required' dogs; I can lift and carry labradors), but this strength is unavailable to me. I can't problem solve my way out of this, I just have to wait it out.

While raging silently.

Something really upsetting is going on in my personal life and I don't know how to cope anymore.

Been dealing with reality not making any damn sense for so long that it's just making me angry now. I hate chaos so much.

etoiles telling tubbo "gg" when there's still so much time to server close, when there's still so much time to turn things around and tubbo is there desperately trying to save them all and etoiles tells him good game, when the game wasn't even a competition, when the whole team went down and they weren't even there to resist it, when the fight wasn't even over quite yet and even still etoiles was resigned to it or maybe he knew even then where the winds were blowing and he accepted the end of this battle his team couldn't even fight. when tubbo is there begging to help him and etoiles tells him good game.

i do not like poetry, but i am rolling do not go gentle into that good night around in my mind right now
