Today my betrothed and I learned that those beautiful and majestic conch shells everyone admires have these fuckers inside them:
Now my betrothed is roleplaying as a conch by holding their index fingers up by their eyes and saying the most unhinged shit. When they started hitting on me as the shell I licked their eye finger.
They said, “Augh! This is wet in a way I’m not used to! Why is it so acidic?” Then slowly curled their finger eye up like a sad salted slug.

Lovely purples for this summer outfit, pairing a shells pattern obi (abalone, conch, starfish, sea urchin), with a fuyo (cotton rose/hibiscus) mixed with smaller kikyo (Chinese bellflower) and nadeshiko (pinks).
I love how this kimono seems to have been altered to fit a taller wearer. The added white area will be covered when worn with an ohashori (waist tuck, done by women to wear a kimono nowadays)

I like to creep around my home and act like a goblin
I don’t know why but I just enjoy doing this. Maybe it’s my way of dealing with stress or something but I just do it about once every week. Generally I’ll carry around a sack and creep around in a sort of crouch-walking position making goblin noises, then I’ll walk around my house and pick up various different “trinkets” and put them in my bag while saying stuff like “I’ll be having that” and laughing maniacally in my goblin voice (“trinkets” can include anything from shit I find on the ground to cutlery or other utensils). The other day I was talking with my neighbours and they mentioned hearing weird noises like what I wrote about and I was just internally screaming the entire conversation. I’m 99% sure they don’t know it’s me but god that 1% chance is seriously weighing on my mind.

Watching reactions to my assertion that people pronounce "conch" as "konk" is hilarious. I'm not saying it's the right way to pronounce it, it's just the way a lot of people do, but it is disproportionately blowing peoples' minds.
It reminds me of the time I made an admittedly somewhat dry joke about "beating" Tetris and accidentally convinced a bunch of people that it was possible to beat Tetris and that I had done it.
Sometimes it's the little things that get you through the day.
