I fear I'm not meant for adult life.
I want to collect my trinkets, invest in cosy blankets, drink lots of coffee and read lots of books. Is that too much to ask?
In other news, I had to deal with taxes today. That may or may not be related.
So I started my animal crossing island again, cause I needed the breathing room but guys... I think I broke it. I got Sasha, Ketchup AND Reneigh on my island in the first week.
I have been blessed by the Animal Crossing GODS!
Two cute babies
their cool big sister 😘
I also have Goose, but I don't want to talk about it 😆
I'd be okay with it if she was just here for the vibes tbh. This is totally what I'd be like if my neighbour was abducted one day.
"have fun hunny xo 💅👋"
I don't know why Mrs Flood just likes to live next door to companions and (awkardly, forcably) wish them well. But honestly kinda dope of her
Maybe she isn't actually anything in the story but just an ever present creature that's just here now cause it's fun
How very depressing that Neil Gaiman had trended not even a tiny bit for demonstrating what a fucking horrific person he is.
As a reminder, he's suing Caroline Wallner, one of his accusers, for breaking her NDA. Not for libel. He's saying she shouldn't have told anyone about it, not that she lied.
He doesn't need the money. He's risking the Streisand effect. He is punishing Caroline, he's trying to intimidate other victims who have signed NDAs to scare them into continued silence.
He is no friend to women, to the LGBTQIA+ community, to anyone quite frankly unless he thinks they are of value to him.
Share the story. Put it on Facebook and bluesky and whatever else you're on. Make it clear what a horrifying person he is. Tell your friends. He's paying Edendale a fortune to try and cover this up. Make this hard for him. Make it cost him money.
Since I've had the time, I've been going through my own personal shit to do with mental health - the aftermath of my childhood SA, for a start, and what thought patterns and beliefs I could unlearn from them. Won't go too much into it, but damn there's been a lot to unravel recently...
In the meantime, I've been having several dreams involving a certain Mr. Neil Gaiman - a naïvely placed favourite of mine. And in short, I just want to say;
Everything about him makes me deeply uncomfortable now especially considering what I've pushed away and not dealt with for so long.
It might seem like I'm making it personal but there are thousands (maybe tens of thousands) of women and girls in the world who go through this awful fucking shit on a daily basis and I've just about had enough of it.
You might be pleased to know I screamed and yelled and fucking got every last little thing out that I had to. I'm proud dream me had the courage to stand up to such a disgusting man, even if it was in my head. Nobody, but nobody should be put through the shit he's pulled. And damn it was cathartic even in my subconscious to completely destroy him. It felt like a little bit of closure for me at least. Then the news that's come out about his NDAs??? Suing people?? Honestly just choke.
um... excuse me. Did Richard understand, or like did he go back and realise what Francis said or what.
Is he dumb? Cause I could see that...
or is Francis just horny in several obscure languages
‘Wait.’ His voice was cool and Bostonian, almost British. I turned around. ‘Are you the new neanias?’, he said mockingly.
The new young man. I said that I was.
‘Cubitum eamus?’
‘What?’
‘Nothing.’
Doctor Who text posts: Eleven edition – pt. 11
YESSSS!
you have GOT to remember when watching the new doctor who that the question is not is this good. doctor who is only ever actually 'good' once a season at most. THE ONLY QUESTION IS is it fun, camp, and has aliens. also remember the worst doctor who showrunner is always the current doctor who showrunner. now go watch the new episodes as god intended like you're ten years old and still remember how to experience joy and whimsy.
I need to get back to Harriet. I miss her 🥹
Currently it's The Little Friend by Donna Tartt
Okay but since it's canon that Bunny is dyslexic I have a headcanon that he totally mispronounced greek words for years till he heard Henry, then he pretended like he knew what he was saying the whole time. Bitch is only there through force of character.
Hey hey, as a librarian, can I just say don’t pace yourself at the library. I get a lot of customers saying “oh I shouldn’t get too many books out at once” but like you should!!!! Max out your card, take everything we have on a subject you’re interested in, make a book fort in your home. We love that shit! It doesn’t matter if you read them or not; just take them for an adventure and bring them back whenever they’re due!
For public libraries, one of the ways we secure funding year to year is lending. Governments don’t want to fund more books if they’re not being used and the way we measure use is by issues. Regardless of whether you read it or not, whether you have it for a day or a month, if you issue it to your library card, we get the stats! It makes the library look good!
Help your local library; get books out even if you know you can’t read them all!

The Tormented
The following art contains spoilers from the book.
I've remembered why I love Tumblr compared to other social media. It's so... Liminal. My little computer friends could be anywhere in the world, or nowhere, so they'll be inundated with the most intimate details about me, and the odd hyper-fixation.
So follow for more of that, I guess??
I have not even finished The Secret History, but I'm already obsessed with it. The cult has gotten to me too!
Every moment I feel like I've lived with these characters... And I saw a Tiktok exploring the real Bennington College (which inspired Hampden) and somehow it was like I'd already seen it all.
Seriously, what dark magic is in this book?
I've been thinking about it an unhealthy amount... But like we have sooo much dark, gritty sci-fi now. Black Mirror just came out with another season last week that shows us the darkest sides of the future. Paid advertising in medicine etc etc.
Why shouldn't RTD let an alien twink hoover up incels with a retro-future Roomba? Or fight a fifty foot fifties cartoon character. It's a universe where literally anything can happen and I think that's awesome.
It's the goofiness that sets Who apart and a lot of people forgot that after Moffat's run.
Okay, I'll play it again... Fine.
I think I found a new favorite outfit in Animal Crossing! 💀💛
Reminds me of that time when Cassandra exploded. And like... The whole characterisation of the Slitheen. Hello, farting skin bags. Let it be funnnnn
DW WHO SPOILERS
So an incel was reduced to nothing but a sperm and a egg then gets fucking killed while the doctor giggles his head off we are so back
Am I actually getting over my mental health stuff, or is Doctor Who actually fun again? Like genuinely joyful. Took itself seriously there for a second and it didn't gel with me a lot of the time. I just want to galavant across the universe with a goofball. Whilst occasionally having deep, traumatic shit thrown in.
Every time Ncuti is on screen I just feel like 💅💃🪩 Slay queen 👑 no notes.
Belinda is also super fun so far.
Haha... Haha... I don't remember uploading this 🫣
Me every time I'm being over-dramatic.
genuine message to 13 y/o me. Though puberty is a bitch
reminder to self: life is rarely as serious as we make it out to be
Dead Poets Society (1989) dir. Peter Weir
To be fair, they are students. I can attest to the accuracy of the representation.
Love how everyone in The Secret History is always either drunk or high. Or asleep.
Hear me out: The Greek Class as Tarot Cards. Bunny was perfect for The Hanged Man, sacrifice and stagnation are his whole deal.
Can you guess what Henry will be 🤭
Now I want a trinket tin
