Simultaneously feeling relieved about my network and cackling about this... comparing "likes" on Ed Sheeran's Instagram statement vs. Macklemore's among the ~500 accounts I follow. Purple accounts are people I know personally, green ones are larger accounts I follow...

Sorry to be weird on main, but I can't stop thinking about how cool it would've been to be pregnant. There are a bazillion reasons I chose the path I did & I'm overall so comfortable with that... but also I wish I got to know what that feels like. Ya know? (Hopefully someone out there knows.)
Off a sailboat after a week. I am literally Stede falling out of bed saying that he doesn't have his land legs back. Adjusting to the ocean movement was easy. Coming back is a vertiginous, nausea-inducing nightmare.
on a boat and missing OFMD :(
For it is September 2nd! Happy Dickfuck Day, loves ๐ thrilled to be on this wild ride with you all, here's to many more years!
The video that made me have my first ever [mumbles incoherently but maybe it's three letters - maybe in alphabetical order they're f, p, r] thoughts ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ I'll probably never really write it but. It's in my mind.
YouTube happened to suggest this to me just as Mr. Menace got home from dropping Teen Menace off at school, so we watched it together. (Iโm surprised I hadnโt made him all this time!) ahhh I just love them so much!!
Art idea: the crew at Calypso's birthday but also as the characters in Twisting the Night Away
What is that, a grain silo?
Am I coming back after months away just to talk about my old fic when its sequel is still languishing half-finished? Not intentionally. But I did just end up back on the island where two years ago I stumbled across a cove that was EXACTLY how I pictured Stede's camp in 'Til Now. Here it is again!!
wow I forgot that when you're on ofmd bsky you can just open an app and see a screenful of our favorite boys and get a little hit of joy???? ๐คฉ๐คฉ๐คฉ
๐๐ผHi, I disappeared for [mumbles] but I'm still here in my soul/heart, and maybe once again online(?!). What's up, what have I missed?

My conspiracy theory is that Lindsey Graham is NOT dead, they're reporting this (1) to show that of *course* the Republicans would admit if a prominent senator died, and (2) so he can get extensive plastic surgery to look like McConnell and continue his legacy in the Senate for another 10-15 years.
Samuel Alito looks like an even-worse Mark Gatiss. Interestingly, he also has the personality and politics of an even-worse Mark Gatiss.
NASA just dropped more than 12,000 photos from the Artemis II mission. It'll take me a few days to go through them all, but so far it's one stunner after another. Link: eol.jsc.nasa.gov/SearchPhotos... Credit: NASA/Artemis II Crew (h/t @jonostrower.com)
I haven't been on bsky in a month but am returning with a question that's been plaguing me since I awoke at 2 this morning. Are vampires killed by UV, or by THE SUN? In other words: could a vampire use a SAD lamp?
Today I biked past a sign proudly advertising a happy hour special: a PITCHER OF BEER for TWENTY HUMAN DOLLARS. I have a stable job with union protections & mandated COLAs, and my jaw is on the ground vis-a-vis price increases. I can't imagine being in a less privileged position. Fuck everything.
How much do you think you could sleep if there were no pressures on your time at all, including the societal virtue of productivity for productivity's sake? I think I'd average about 10 hours a night, probably more at first as I caught up.
You can schedule send TEXTS? I can pre-send good interview vibes to a friend NOW, when I'm thinking about it, instead of trying to remember in three days at 8am??? Is this... is this what makes me a thoughtful person people want to be friends with...?????
OMG I got my craft exchange gift from @escargot-on.bsky.social and itโs BEAUTIFULLLLLL ๐๐๐
I audibly snorted and spat out a mouthful of rice at my desk, in public, when I looked at the art... lmaooo Lizzie Spriggs, fuck right off

For months, possibly years, I've existed believing that Taika has done an adaptation of The Producers, but that's not true, is it?
Wow, turns out my tactic of "not dealing with the worst, scariest email of the week until 5:09pm on Friday" didn't propel me into the weekend with vim, vigor, and a sense of accomplishment, who could've seen that coming?!
Looking to spread the good word far and wide? May I suggest following my lead and sharing the link with your, uh [checks notes], therapist?
