so i have gone on adhd meds and had to go off again, am still failing at my phd, but I'm also about to post a 30k hollanov fanfic sometime this week so maybe I AM thriving

I like that a lot of artsy literature people are mad rn that romance is making money and coping/seething by crying about how it can never demonstrate good craft. Even though nothing stops romance from demonstrating good craft

I will die on this hill!!

all the good and wonderful wishes to you and the bean!!

don't do this to yourself

after three years!!! she is finished (except for washing and blocking of course). the trans-denmark friendship blanket in all her ginormous beauty 😍

such handsome!!!

It's a sequel to my touring production of Act 1 down the aisles of Lidl which admittedly received mixed reviews

I'm staging a one woman production of Act 2 of Les Misérables at this bus stop, tickets available now

Columbus Day?
oh no, you misheard me. I said “COLUMBIDAE”
It’s pigeon time, bitch

maybe a little ill will!!!!!

1) lined
2) wool
3) dress pants
4) plus size
5) women
you can have 2 of these and neither can be "wool"

I would swim the Atlantic for a bite of that, I love lemon 🤩

trying to declutter as I prepare to move out and it is SO HARD to let go of clothes that are still perfectly fine but don't fit anymore because it's basically impossible to replace them with an equivalent new item. Who even makes cotton skirts in fun prints anymore!!!

The leaves are from a new plate and I am so pleased with it! fiddly as hell but so cute

pardon the pun but I nailed these

I for one welcome my new Bean Overlord (gender neutral), maybe if we had more autistic people in charge the trains would actually run on time

that's fucked up!

you just cannot go wrong with hot, fried dough. this one has apples in it 😋

everything I've achieved so far I did despite. trying not to think too much about what else could have been possible

actually I am a bit angry about this, imagine how many sick pornographies I could have written if I'd gotten the right support at literally any point in time before this week

tbh this has been a problem for years now and I suspect the major issue is developmental editing. Especially new authors don't seem to get the benefit of having somebody tell them how to fix the (understandable! normal!) problems with their stories the way they used to

also WHERE ARE THE EDITORS. why are we not preventing this. why do we allow perfectly good potential to stay buried when a lot of these novels could be massively improved by basic editing.

I told a friend yesterday and she was like "can I say congrats? yes actually you should celebrate" 😅 because now I know it's not my fault, it really IS easier for other people

two years after being told I was just depressed because a PhD is hard, a bitch just got diagnosed with ADHD ✌️

as it is written in the ancient texts: me and who

my unhinged tip is using a vibrator on the muscles to relax them, you have to experiment with the intensity and the exact spots to aim it at but it really does loosen everything up

this is so bleak

I'm getting physio on mine currently and yesterday my jaw clicked so hard when bro was moving it around that he went "oh boy oh boy" 💀 and everybody tells you to just "reduce stress" as if that's ever how it works!

this was a really bad one too, thankfully I love untangling stuff!
