My neighbor just leaned across the 50ft-drop gap between our apartment balconies to hand me a 6-pack of Shiner as a bribe to finish watching Red White & Royal Blue with him and his British boyfriend (“you don’t understand - it’s ABOUT THE TWO OF US!!”), and I think snapshots of time like this are probably the meaning of life

#his mom is a big Texas politician he’s from Austin and his boyfriend has some kind of noble title in Britain so he’s not WRONG #but the question is: will I allow my favorite drink to be a bribe to watch fanfic in movie form at my neighbor’s house #or rather finish watching bc I fell asleep around the 90th sex scene last time lmao #and woke up only in time to angrily text DJ about the fact that the characters somehow BIKE from DOWNTOWN AUSTIN to the SUBURBS #shut up e #random #off topic blogging #red white and royal blue #cw alcohol

oh and when i say people might hear of anglish and think of it as a fun thought experiment - i mean in the sense that like a decade ago i had vaguely heard of it as a concept/game almost of trying to think up germanic roots that could make modern english words with the same meanings of words we use that come from french or latin. which seemed to me just a fun way to play with language! surely nobody actually has any deeper political intent here or actually thinks they can change or “purify” the language this way! hahahaha!

anyway yeah, as it turns out,

#it’s so… ludicrous that the people most obsessed with the idea that england should somehow be this pure ethnostate are obsessed with like #building up these grievances based on an invasion a millennium ago and the way english wasn’t the language of government for a few #hundred years in the Middle Ages #and now they’re like. making a big display of pretending the language and people were actually colonised #in the modern sense #meanwhile ignoring or like arguing against the actual colonisation/imperialism britain propagated and propagates #like oh we had a big evil empire? nah we’re a little guy stepped on by the French everyone else has to leave #they finish up like ‘yeah not going to examine the mechanisms that led to english becoming a world language btw’

(taps mic) i'd like to thank philomena cunk for inspiring me to write today. i read whatever i wrote back to myself, in my head, and found that its impossible to sound like absolute dogshit if u could only just hear it in her voice.

#philomena cunk #cunk on earth #cunk on britain #cunk on shakespeare #it works it actually does #to put it into perspective: i hadn't written in #in two years bc i thought that whatever i wrote read like if a dog projectile vomitted all over a piece of paper #then i had the funny idea of writing again and i read it in her voice and do u know what? #i actually honest to god almost finished it this time

I feel like we are collectively doing one of those bizarre pretend to be a person in the Blitz or pretend to be a victorian experiences we were made to go do on school trips back in the day.

Living in manufactured misery for no reason.

i really am gonna finish this architecture book by the power of Too Sleepy To Start New Fiction, huh

#text #personal #books #reading #obsolescence #obsolescence: an architectural history #daniel m abramson #as opposed to #great cities #which is what i really have been meaning to start since i posted the pic 🫣😂 #i have also recently received New Nonfic in the mail and i wanna start those too #gotta finish this one first tho 👀 #its interesting but its kind of dry lol #and i feel like the focus is so narrow for claiming to be An Architectural History #like US and Britain and thats It #japan has been mentioned once #like its both too narrow and too broad i guess #keep it in the US or cover more of the world?? feels like a weird mix as is #basically obsolescence was made up by city planners to sell more buildings is my takeaway so far 😂

Sudden urge to draw more PT AU stuff, mainly the one with Brick as a human and the humans as rats, which was not really an AU, but I have been thinking about it ghdfk

And the other AUs too (that are also not really AUs bc it's just Peppino as a beast and everything else is the same kjgkjdgf)

#but I am working I cannot draw!!! #someday I will have a cool AU everyone loves #(I do not count my askblog as an AU since it's more my interpretation of the game rather than changing anything) #I will say I have considered British Pizza Tower but someone's definitely done it already #and we got no frickin culture!!! #I am pretty sure the national dish of Britain is a curry and that would be kinda... y'know #any way I must get back to work I have to finish this in like three hours oh shit

It’s so funny how people are complaining about Eurovision’s results.

It’s Eurovision. Eurovision. The show with the most biased and politically motivated voting. Literally every single year the vote has been ‘rigged’

#except for like maybe the Abba year #I don’t keep up with Eurovision too much #mainly just watch Britain’s one to see how shit it is #this year’s song finished second to last #nature is healing #Eurovision #eurovision 2023

flying out today :(( sad about leaving my boy behind

#I wish we could take him with us #but between not having enough time to finish up his travel vaxxes and things #and #apparently for him to be let back into Britain he *has* to fly cargo? #and with his separation anxiety I really don’t think it would be fair #to throw him on a plane in the cargo hold by himself #without us #AND in a wildly new and stressful environment #so baby gets to stay at his favorite daycare #I know he’ll have fun during the days but am still a little anxious about joe he’ll do at night #journal

#fate stay night #saber #arturia pendragon #why can’t we live in this timeline? #Britain #it’s a bit rough and ready #I wanted to finish this quick #due to today’s news

[derbophobia]

you have to read books im so serious yall my brain never ever feels more sated and satisfied and full than when ive found a good book thatll take me at least a week or two to read. its like i forget how mentally hungry i get until i read smth and its like ive been eating nothing but super processed junk food and then get to eat the hell out of a really good apple idk what to tell u !!!!

#i just finished reading uhm #Tell Me Im Worthless by Alison Rumfitt #its a psychological/supernatural horror book #written by a trans woman about a trans woman who experienced an extreme trauma #and how shes coping with the horrible transphobia of britain alongside the supernatural horror trauma #its so fucking good and its horror as a metaphor for fascism
