Where do you shop for your clothes? Are there any particular brands you look out for?
OH SO- this is kinda gonna be a frustrating answer.
i shop almost exclusively at this re-sale/second chance/excess store that puts together the unsold clothing from places like free-people and anthropology and the indy brands that they carry. It's INCREDIBLY local to my stretch of the woods- it's called retail 101 in naugatuck connecticut. i got a 350$ dress new with tags for 30$ and that was the most expensive clothing item listed in the store. it's definitely worthwhile to make the drive. it's about an hour for me, at least two if you're in nyc.
shopping there helps me feel better about getting clothes- because they're generally a lot bit better quality than like h and m or primark (which is what i can reasonably afford). it's also not directly supporting like- all those big businesses and keeps unsold clothes out of the landfill ect. It's helped me get some very very nice clothing for very cheap. it's a very overstimulating experience because it's basically just a football field sized warehouse filled with clothing.
i greatly recommend it if you're overly small or overly large because their greatest selection is in the Xs and Xl range like- I think i saw a size 14 jeans that were originally 400$ on sale for 14$ so- if you're more middle sized it definitely requires some hunting.
but tbh i also hit up the target clearance section for most of my jeans because they have really reasonable sales. i got my favorite pair of ripped jeans there for 6.50$. Target just for some reason happens to fit me pretty reliably- which is honestly rare because i have a 28 inch waist but a 40 inch booty.

Hi, I would like to understand why do you ship Mario and Luigi? You don't have to answer if it's not comfortable for you. 🙂
This soooooo immediately reads as a bait question, but I'm trusting you here anon I'm trusting you asked this in genuine good faith which I don't know why you would but if you want to know;
The short answer is Because I Want To and I Like Them. Plain and simple, there doesn't have to be a deeper reason. Sometimes we just ship things because we want to. Understood? Okay cool.
A slightly longer answer would be because they're the kind of Ship Dynamic that brings me the most comfort. I love a ship where they are each other's other half, they understand eachother and support eachother and just get eachother in ways no other person ever could. Loving eachother, being together is all they've ever known, they can't imagine a world where they're not together, side by side.
Platonic or Romantic aside, Mario and Luigi are a perfect pair, that's their entire thing. Mario is Reckless and Headstrong, Luigi is Calculating and Sturdy. Mario charges forward, Luigi holds the line. Mario picks mushrooms out of his spaghetti, and Luigi eats them. They fill in the gaps the other leaves, they compliment and communicate and trust one another undoubtedly.
I love a love like that. Of course it's you. It was always going to be you. It could never be anyone but you. I am not me without you, and you are not you without me. They are eachother's everything
They are a bonded pair, do not separate.

hm. all knowing tumblr mutuals give me your advice
i ended up staying home from my away games this weekend because i got sick right before we left and my coach didn't want me to be miserable on a bus for six hours for like. half an hour of playtime.
however. my mom just noticed my phone has not left my room in the past 48 hours and thinks i just left it in my dorm. i do not want to tell her i got sick because she will be sad and worried (context: I Do Not Get Sick Ever) but i also know i have to tell her eventually because she'll be wondering why on earth im not playing this weekend
so

Hi Catie! This might be a long shot. But I'm looking for a fic, or really a series of fics, and was wondering if you could help me 🥺
From what I remember, several of the MHA guys placed bets with each other to see who could get their girl (you/the reader) to *finish* the fastest - there was some kind of rule in place to keep it from being "easy", but i don't remember what. Everyone else involved in the bet was watching over video chat so that there was no "cheating" (though I think Sero cheated in his?).
I'm usually pretty good about reblogging fics, but my blog is a mess, and I read it a couple of years ago now (late 2021-early 2022, I think). My biggest issue is that I don't remember the author. I've gone through the blogs of my "most likely" suspects, but no luck yet. I fear that I may have dreamt it up or, even worse, the author deactivated. There's a chance I read it on AO3, but I'm 99% sure it was tumblr.
Thank you for any help you can provide! Love you, drink some water! 😘

hi ladybug!! so good to hear from you🩵🩵🩵
unfortunately, i don't think i've heard of or read this fic, and if it i have i don't remember where either!! hopefully someone will see this and help you out? but sadly i won't be me </3
it's a bummer when things get lost over time, even if you did happen to reblob it somewhere. oh well, best of luck finding it, and i'll make sure to reblob this again tomorrow so more people will see. i wonder when is the best time?
anyway, love u dearly🙈

I haven’t exactly been bearposting all summer or anything so you’re all a bit contextless, but I just looked up at the explore.org/bears stream that’s just kind of always on at my house, and I saw a bear at the far wall, in The Office, and I recognized him as 151 Walker based on a mannerism, and I said to myself, “Oh, cool, I haven’t seen 151 in a while, I feel like it’s been all 32 and 821 and 164 the last few days”, and I went to look at the comments, and one of the comments was a picture of this bear, 151 Walker, captioned “so handsome”, and while I’m not judging anyone’s taste in handsome bears, I recognize him by how he’s constantly flapping his tongue around licking his chops or something, just, such an incredibly goofy behavior that I would not have described as handsome.

Part of me, after all this time of kinda feeling 'eh' about the prospect, wants to try dating. Issue is that I basically have no options in my area, and as many lovely people as there are online who I'm compatible with... Once we officially start dating, I just can't keep up?
It's a mixture of not having anything physical to do(not even talking that I mean like going out and shit) and also needing to be more active online when my track record is already very spotty, lol.
Plus, thinking about the future, y'kno? Not even in a marriage and kids kinda way, but like,,, how viable would it be to close the distance? What if I found someone more generally suited to me in my area, even if we don't share that soul-bond?
It ends up being easier to stay friends, even if in person I know I'd be all over them. Don't want to strain the lovely thing we already have.
