Pretty sure I accidentally traumatised my ex husband with sains eleph. bags (we both had good fortunate to be raised in households that already used the Piles method plus 'Judicious Use of Storage Solutions'). πŸ˜…

Look, the Piles Method of filing is popular in my community becauseπŸ‘ It πŸ‘Works.Β  Dig deep enough and you WILL find it. Probably in an unopened envelope.

Genesis "Your Own Special Way" lyrics:

Go far enough and you will reach
A place where the sea runs underneath
We'll see our shadow, high in the sky
Dying away in the night

I've sailed the world for seven years
And left all I love behind in tears, oh-oh
Won't you come here, wherever you are
I've been all alone long enough

You, you have your own special way
Of holding my hand keep it way 'bove the water
Don't ever let go, no, no, no

You, you have your own special way
Of turning the world so it's facing
The way that I'm going, don't ever
Don't ever stop

Genesis "Your Own Special Way" lyrics: Go far enough and you will reach A place where the sea runs underneath We'll see our shadow, high in the sky Dying away in the night I've sailed the world for seven years And left all I love behind in tears, oh-oh Won't you come here, wherever you are I've been all alone long enough You, you have your own special way Of holding my hand keep it way 'bove the water Don't ever let go, no, no, no You, you have your own special way Of turning the world so it's facing The way that I'm going, don't ever Don't ever stop

Whose seen the wind not you or I
But when the ship moves, she's passing by
Between you and me, I really don't think
She knows where she's going at all

You, you have your own special way
Of carrying me twice round the world
Never closer to home than the day
The day I started

You, you have your own special way
Hold onto my hand keep it way 'bove the water
Don't ever let go no, no, no

What mean the dreams night after night
The man in the moon's a blinding light
Won't you come out, whoever you are
You've followed me quiet long enough

You, you have your own special way
Of holding my hand, don't ever let go
You, you have your own special way
Of turning the world so it's facing
The way that I'm going, don't ever
Don't ever leave me

Whose seen the wind not you or I But when the ship moves, she's passing by Between you and me, I really don't think She knows where she's going at all You, you have your own special way Of carrying me twice round the world Never closer to home than the day The day I started You, you have your own special way Hold onto my hand keep it way 'bove the water Don't ever let go no, no, no What mean the dreams night after night The man in the moon's a blinding light Won't you come out, whoever you are You've followed me quiet long enough You, you have your own special way Of holding my hand, don't ever let go You, you have your own special way Of turning the world so it's facing The way that I'm going, don't ever Don't ever leave me

My unserious theories on why we're here:

a) we're immortal beings entering this reality with the intention of experiencing a linear lifetime, we forgot on purpose to gain this experience.

b) we came here with a plan but have collectively forgotten

c) we're a bunch of sadists in a holo-program

Kid: Tree! Tree! Tree!
Dad: ......
Kid: My go! I spy with my little eye, something beginning with 'truh!"
Dad: ....is it 'trampoline'?
Kid: No- it's ......'TELEVISION'!! (Seating area has 2 of them)
Dad: of course it is 😐πŸ€ͺ

Took every inch of my control not to dissolve into fits of laughter!

Sat in trampolining class, a toddler from the next group is playing 'I Spy' with his Dad:

Dad: I spy with my little eye, something beginning with 'tuh'
Kid: Tree!!
Dad: Not here indoors, no. Is there something quite big in here that begins with 'tuh'?

I've never wanted a third season of OFMD more than I do now. A show that set the stage for a leading queer couple, explicitly reassured "Yes, This Is Happening" & followed thru with it joyfully & unapologetically.

I miss it so much, please, for the love of Calypso- when can we go back to the sea?

"Woke is ruining everything" is what weak people cry when their bigotry fails to destroy but instead is met with love, community and resilience.

Clowning aside, I don't want the pirate show to be bought at the expense of further monopolising the industry, I just want it to have a safe home and a wider audience.Β  I don't know what the best answer is, the whole system is so screwed. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Of course, I did one for the badger too, naturally 🦑

This state of affairs is making me increasingly forlorn by the day 😭

Drawing of Ed and Stede from Our Flag Means Death. Stede is delighted and clapping as Ed holds up a small fish he caught. Stede is wearing his cursed suit red shirt and Ed is wearing his timeout burlap onesie. Ed is presenting his fish with an open hand as it dangles on a line from his other hand. He's smiling. They're both standing in front of a huge waning moon, bathed in its light.

Y’all know I had a recent hospital stay due to chest pain. I received the bill after insurance and it is nearly $18k. So I created a gofundme to get some help. Every little bit helps and even a share is so so appreciated!

I'd have zero issues if I could post it here (best fandom in the world!) but I can't for privacy bc it's a photo. I think I should just throw it down and run, maybe my anxiety will be chill for once. Actually thinking about it I'm pretty sure I could do a fandom take on it!
