heads up to americans: the federal government is suspending the free covid test program on Friday, March 8th, so if you haven’t already gotten two orders of 4 at-home tests, now’s the time to do it
Also I am working on the next chapter and it's coming along slowly. I had a really REALLY rough first semester of school and i'm trying to find my way as a student, so I'm not sure when it's coming out but I'm hoping for mid-spring. Just wanted to let everyone know and to say don't be afraid to try new things and fall flat on your face because it happens and then you adjust.
"Do you wrestle with dreams?
Do you contend with shadows?
Do you move in a kind of sleep?
Your life is stolen.
You tarried with trifles,
Victim of your folly."
— Dirge for Jamis on the Funeral Plain, from "Songs of Muad'Dib" by the Princess Irulan
Don't tell Boye or Susan Bates I'm telling you this, but theres nothing stopping you from making your own crochet hooks and knitting needles out of dowel rods. Literally nothing. Needles just need to be sharpened with a pencil sharpener, filed down at the end with a nail file, and have a wooden bead slapped on the opposite end and there you go. Crochet hooks just need a notch cut into the end and filed again to make that shape. Next time you cant find the size you need for a project, just look at the dowel rods.
you might be goth but you’ll never be fucking the grave of your unconsummated lover, who you poisoned to death (in the center of a hedge maze), in a rainstorm, on the grounds of his castle goth
oh no, hang on! what happened to the 'not judging' part? oh, who's judging? i'm not judging. but, you do need to know that it will not happen unless i'm married. ...well, that's not very likely then, is it? and why? am i not worthy of congress?
...the world will never allow us to marry, belle. you are the governors' daughter. you misjudge my family. my mother is your greatest supporter. she fought for you to get this job. she'll support me.
