#i love that they're all like radiating little bubbles #that fit their personalities #constance's angry expression and sticky's anxious smile

I was away from my apartment for two weeks, and in that time, the tree outside our front window has grown leaves. It had little pink flowers when I left, and now they've turned into green leaves.

That's all. Just want to note that I have enjoyed observing this today.

#happy things

oh when I tell you I need all of these [x]

Out of curiosity and also guilt over my own coffee intake. I wanna ask:

Now I'm not talking about when you're studying and so you drink 3x the usual amount or something like that. This isn't me asking what your record is. I'm talking about the most basic, average day, how many coffees you drink?

#0 #caffeine makes me unable to sleep at night

#i hope this is true

(for the purposes of this poll, there is no monkey's paw situation: the chore you pick stays the same level of difficulty/grossness/etc. as it normally is for you, and you only have to do it as often as you want to. the chores you don't pick are magically done for you exactly the way you'd want them to be, just with zero effort on your part.)

#vacuuming #i love to vacuum!!! #seriously i find it very satisfying it's almost like a stim

[mysteriouseggsbenedict]

this does not apply if you wear exclusively leggings. Those things tear all the time you need like a million on standby

#okay it absolutely cannot be true that having 5 or more pairs of pants is considered excessive #that cannot possibly be true #maybe if they are all the same type of pants (ie you have 5 pairs of jeans) #but like let me think. i have 3 pairs of blue jeans (all different styles/washes) #2 pairs of sweatpants #one pair of lightweight joggers #one pair of olive green fucking like khaki type material pants idk and another that's tan colored #one pair of linen summer pants #professional slacks in black and a white/black check pattern #and i think that's it so #11 pairs of pants???????

Celebrating @mysteriouseggsbenedict!!!

nicholas and company destroy the prison industrial complex! I can't say anything about this that the title doesn't already tell you. It's fantastic

i have spent my life clamoring towards it Crying. This one just produces crying in me. You should really read it

Carnations Have you ever thought about how much you hate Mr. Pressius? Or maybe how much you love Mr. Benedict and Constance's relationship? Then this is for you!!

the dances of swaths of dust I can't hype this one up enough. Those of you who've been around a bit have seen me talk about it. Exquisite

The Best Man This one!! It feels like a long, slow hug. Also I'm sobbing on the floor about it.

#oh sophie this is so very sweet of you #i don't really write MBS fic anymore but I love that it's still getting appreciation

[mysteriouseggsbenedict]

THIS IS YOUR SPORADIC REMINDER TO GO READ "TIME AND A HALF" BECAUSE IT'S BASICALLY CANON AND IT'S BEAUTIFUL

#INCREDIBLY good fic #literature quality

It’s ok to be disabled and happy. Being disabled does not mean you have to constantly suffer.

I've always had a lot of anxiety around being able to fall asleep at night and getting enough sleep (side effect of insomnia since birth) but the way I have found to cope with it is basically to swing as far as I can in the other direction and just think "who CARES when i go to bed, i am metal as FUCK and that means i don't CARE" [images of explosions and combat and parkour and other intense things]

so you can see how well this works out for me the next morning

#i mean i still won't stay up ridiculously late on purpose #like i make an effort #but it's more just that if i feel myself starting to worry about going to bed on time #i will be like NO GIRL YOU ARE TOO HARDCORE FOR THAT FUCK THAT YOU EAT NAILS FOR BREAKFAST RAAHHHH

I mean obviously having a loving partner would be amazing, but if I can't have that, my dream is just to have a really nice small house/apartment that is all mine.

(Also, "all mine" doesn't mean nobody else lives there. It just means that I curated the entire space to my liking. But a person can be there too you know.)

Anyway, I just have it in my head that instead of my current setup which still has the vibes of a college apartment. I want wall decor that's in frames instead of pushpinned to the wall. I want a bed with nice new fresh bedding that's all clean and soft (replacing my current bedding which is okay but you know it's college apartment quality level....)

And everything will be really clean and nice and taken care of. And organized. And just how I like it.

I mean the thing is that I sort of already have something close to this, I guess. I have my own bedroom and bathroom and my roommate is great to live with so it's not like the kitchen/living room are terrible disaster zones. It's more just like that most of my stuff doesn't really give the impression of "I'm a professional adult with my life together," it's more "this is the stuff I used in my college dorm and then moved it to my college apartment and now I moved it to my post-grad apartment" (the furniture though was only in the apartment, not the dorm, but still).

And also my bed right now has no headboard. It's just the mattress on a frame but no headboard. So I want a bed with a headboard lmfao.

When I was younger and researching the autism diagnosis criteria and symptoms, I thought “oh I couldn’t POSSIBLY be autistic.” Because when I read “takes everything literally” I thought it literally meant EVERYTHING and I was like “I don’t take EVERYTHING literally, just most things!” And I just realized the other day that it didn’t actually mean EVERYTHING and that was an overstatement.

Thinking about the silencing technology in TPJ, and how in that one scene Mr. Benedict screamed himself into a narcoleptic attack and no one could hear him

#wow y'all weren't kidding about the angst #OOUGH
