While I was getting ready for work the other day I was like oh my god when did my shoulders get so nice and sometimes you don’t remember you meant to take a picture of yourself until 2:30am

Notable moment from the fam visit: my niece really wanted me to put makeup on her, and was pretty good about holding still and being patient while I put it on! but! as is to be expected, smeared it all around her face very quickly. so she was running around for most of the day looking like a party girl wearing yesterday’s makeup

big spoilers for new info as of tonight's episode but eye am soooooooo curious about the extent to which galicaea is still opposed to cassandra in some way. obviously in her high elven form she was trying to get kristen as a follower rather than have her continue to investigate the nightmare king and find cassandra, like she was NOT trying to put her thumb on the scale in that way. and from the sound of it she and sol basically respectively absorbed/dissolved the domains that once belonged to cassandra and ankarna through numerous calculated efforts of their clerics and evangelists, with sol and helio acquiring exclusive association with the sun and summer, and galicaea acquiring exclusive worship of the wood elves and becoming a goddess defined by certainty and eternity, driving away doubt. so is galicaea still playing the game even after being "restored" by wolfsong, trying to keep rage and doubt out of the world that is so well set up for her. was she ever really restored or was it doomed to be a cosmetic overhaul after the high elves got behind it again. like how christian fundamentalists dress like hipsters and open really trendy and successful coffee shops

I don’t see enough appreciation for the nose picking aspect of slobs and it’s a CRIMEE. I wasn’t really into snot before but like I get it more now. It’s PEAK slob behavior!
I need a hottie that absentmindedly digs for gold on the regular. I wanna see the thick globby snot they can pull out. I don’t know if I prefer the dried crusty type or the stringy slimy kinda snot but I need them to go to town up there! They don’t have a tissue to put it away, no problem that’s what shirts and sheets are for! If they feeling a little cruel they’ll grab the closest person they can reach and use their clothes to wipe themselves or when they get curious just gobble it up and it if makes them burpy even better. They’d hurdle huge snot rockets and hock thick loogies anywhere and every where with no regard for anyone who catches them. I always get a mix of disgust and thrill from feeling boogers under the tables or chairs out in public. I would play around them before starching them off and picking the remains from my fingernails.
I want to create a collection of boogers with my slobby partner so baddd and it’s crazy there isn’t more emphasis on stuff like this in the slob kink 😤 Missed opportunity I’d say…

Regarding your really interesting post about whether or not people share with others what they do in phandom: another potential factor is when they joined fandom! If earlier in life, when kids called you cringe for it, maybe it’s more of an instinct to hide fandom activities. If later in life, particularly as you’re learning how to embrace your inner cringe, maybe the instinct to hide fandom activities isn’t so ingrained.
I entered fandom pretty late, and started embracing my inner cringe pretty early, so I find it easier to talk to irl folks about phandom activities I do. I’ve never really had an irl partner, tho, so I wouldn’t know what the barriers to sharing phandom activities would feel like then
That is true! As I've been reading all the (fantastic) responses, I think also a lot of it has to do with like. Your personality and who you hang out with.
If you're an outwardly, unapologetic nerdy person who, as you put it, embraced their inner cringe eloquently, then you tend to attract people who also have nerdy hobbies who are maybe more into fandom stuff which would make the "i write fanfiction" convo actually not that stressful.
But if you didn't embrace your fandom cringe or if you grew up in a time/place where fandom stuff and fanfiction especially was the #1 quickest way to lose all your friends and be a social outcast, then as an adult embracing that cringe is harder, connecting with people who are more unapologetic is harder, and you don't tend to attract those same circles as others.
Not to say that people who aren't engrossed in fandom culture are inherently bad people—I'm literally dating one and all my best friends are also non-fandom types—but it does make that "I like fandom stuff and read/write fanfiction" convo a LOT more stressful.
I have one friend irl who I know draws fanart for a different fandom, and I discovered that by accident, but even then I was too shy to admit that I also was into fandom culture so I just smiled and complimented her art. And now we don't even live in the same state 😭
