THIS IS SO GOOD!!!
a year ago I started taking ceramics classes bc I think it's good for me to be utter dogshit at things, but I actually really love how this bowl turned out--enough that I felt brave enough to submit it for the craft fair! Soon, you can own your very own NOT utter dogshit purple bowl, made by me π
donβt forget to destroy your clocks tonight, walk away from your mortgage, just start driving, youβre free
ok hi everypony after much stressing i decided that it would probably b ok and even a good idea to gofundme fr top surgery related costs. so this is that. any shares/donations would mean a lot to me/help me feel a lot more secure about something i am actually so scared about <3 gofund.me/b46ced9d6
This podfic kept me such good company on a grueling but beautiful backpacking trip, and I have the BEST memories associated with it π₯°π₯°π₯°
Hey guess what. Sometimes when you have a hard conversation it's met with understanding and love, and even if someone is annoyed or even angry with you, it doesn't mean they hate you and the world is ending. WHO KNEW!!!!!!
I'll take either! Clearly what I've been doing to overcome this tendency isn't working.
I miss them π₯²

I am 38 human years old. When am I going to learn that avoiding a difficult conversation/unpleasant situation doesn't make it go away; indeed, that it is almost certainly going to make it worse? This is so fucking obvious and yet!!!
The absolute worst thing I can possibly do after work is crawl into bed "just for a minute"
and yet
#4 for meeee
God, this is so relatable. No advice, no useful thoughts, but hugs π«
Usually when my ADHD is very bad it feels like my brain is full of bees but today it feels full of squirrels. Better? Worse? Neither? Who knows!

Mothman, doing math, while being hammered out of their father's skull. Mothena!
I bike past a car on my way home from work with the license plate MTH MAN and I've never known if it's "Mothman" or "math man" but I want so badly to leave them a doodle of Mothman doing math. Unfortunately, I cannot draw and it would not look like anything.
stede in the battle jacket opening the door to jim and olu's room, looking in with confusion (our flag means death s1e3)
extremely sweaty lucius with his mouth open in surprise, standing next to jim and olu who do not exactly have full confidence in lucius explaining this (our flag means death s1e3)
extremely sweaty lucius now trying to tell stede why he's there, standing next to jim and olu who do not exactly have full confidence in lucius explaining that everything's fine (our flag means death s1e3)
have either of you seen- LUCIUS there you are. oh god, why are you so sweaty?

Happy birthday, OFMD! In 4 years we have raised over $401,866.16 for charities and provided over 14,000 meals with Samba and Momentus for the LA Food Bank, all inspired by our love for the show. Maybe we can get to $500k in 2026?

It for real would've been such a tragedy πππ What if I'd never even know who/what was out there?!
THIS IS PERFECT YES YES YES
Smooshed up Volvo wagon in the snow. There are semi trucks on all sides and foam all over the ground.
Smooshed up Volvo, view of just the driver's door. Wow! It's so smashed! This is at the tow yard it ended up at.
Dramatic photos for those interested. I put the graphic media tag on because it's intense, but no blood or anything. Volvo driver for life over here, I walked away from this with nothing but some gnarly bruises and a fat lip from the airbag.
Reminded, as I am every year, how fucking glad I am I wasn't killed when my car got crushed between two semi trucks, 10 days before OFMD premiered. For so many reasons, but "being alive to join this fandom" is a big one! Love you all, happy four years of OFMD! πππ
While AO3 is down, you can use the #OFMD Podfic spreadsheet to see 2,037 stories that have been recorded, as well as an external link column that takes you directly to the audio files where ever they are hosted. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...
I posted this and AO3 promptly went back down πππ
Now that AO3 is back up (yay!), you can find the visual reading version here archiveofourown.org/works/56385268
Rated T; 4096 words and, yes, there *are* 2048 in each of the two chapters π

This is so great - the direct, personal, immediate impact is HUGE.
Hell yeah, pezlet!!!
I'll go first: my father-in-law, who is NOT a political guy *at all*, has been doing weekly grocery shopping for a family he knows & who no longer feel safe going out in public bc of π§
Photo of a scraggly lil tree seemingly growing out of rock. In the background, rolling green hills and a blue sky with wispy white clouds. Photo to get people to see this post and because I like the "tree thriving in a seemingly inhospitable place" symbolism.
Hey, can you share a story about how you've seen someone fight The Horrors recently? Especially if it's a "small" thing. I want to hear about the little ways we're holding our communities together.
