(he/him) 30+ Perpetually trying to figure out what the hell is going on.

hot take maybe but i don't think i like the incredibles very much. it's fine? the family drama and the deteriorating marriage all feels very "old" to me, and the actual super hero stuff just isn't very much fun. the first half of the movie's okay but after the plane gets shot down I get kinda bored.

Spent most of the day crying because I was overwhelmed by way of throwing myself headfirst into a series of experiences I'd never had before and didn't know what to anticipate or how to prepare. I was also so, so unbelievably happy almost the entire time.

internet: [argues about whether "it's giving (whatever)" is an acceptable use of the English language] me, scrolling through the comments with a thousand-yard stare: three different people said "bet" to me today when I gave them assistance

thinking about how in high school the only thing I was ever a part of that I even remember anymore was getting to work the lights for an after-school theatre production... I was... awkward. unpopular. I didn't make any friends, but I still look back on that time fondly.

(sighing wistfully at Nyreen as I start up the Omega DLC) it's a good thing Aria's a jealous little bitch who told me i couldn't bring Garrus to this mission. he might feel threatened by how badly I want Nyreen to like me.

The Council: Sometimes spectres have to make sacrifices. I hope you'll be willing to do that when the time comes. Commander Shepard: Oh, what was that? Send the fleet in to save the Destiny Ascension and the Council within? Wow, I would love to, but I think I have to sacrifice that particular ship.

forever having a sensible chuckle over the bit in ME1 where you ask Ashley if her distrust of aliens is gonna be a problem and she says "if you tell me to kiss a turian, I'll ask which cheek" and Shepard goes "I don't think kissing turians will be necessary" very funny as a Garrusmancer

I've been replaying the Mass Effect trilogy, which I adore greatly. I'm very happy to be replaying it from the beginning and making all the same choices I always make because that's how I like it and I have fun seeing it the same way every time. But boy, I really hate Feros. What a terrible level.

kind of want to make a physical photo album of my cats... my photos are all so spread out over so many services and hard drives, now. it would be nice to have something that isn't as likely to just disappear forever on me.

bought a ticket to a drag show later this month because... idk, just because? because i'm thirty five and i've spent so long being afraid to live my life that i feel like i've barely done anything. i want to go places, i want to do things. i want to live while i'm alive.

I really enjoy youtubers who do sort of "funny commentary about bad movie" videos. There's a specific bad movie I've never seen one of them talk about that I would love a video in that style about.

me: i'm gonna write a chapter fic me: i'm gonna watch evangelion me: i'm gonna re-read dungeon meshi me: i'm gonna re-watch dungeon meshi also me: wait there are how many hours in a day?

highly recommend putting on classic Backstreet Boys and *NSYNC while making dinner and just singing that shit and dancing around the kitchen because who the fuck cares anymore

i would like to formally apologize to everyone who ever left me a lovely comment on ao3 during my dunmesh era. i replied to like zero of them because of the horrors you see. i am making an effort to change; i hope someday i can post another dunmesh fic and say as much

is there such a thing as a 90s club? I've never really been to a club but I would change that in a second if I could just jam out to the albums I had as a kid
