If half your tattoos are straight sailor tattoos and half your tattoos are gay sailor tattoos, does that make all of your tattoos bi sailor tattoos? Asking for a friend.

And they went with the “Zayn hit somebody” story bc that’s been the story used for lots of things and people are familiar with it and thus will believe it easily.

And it works for both Z and L because it’s a much better narrative than “we dropped it bc your sales are disappointing.”

I’ll die on the hill that (unpopular opinion coming) Netflix pulled it because they’re not going to invest marketing in something they think won’t have returns, an that decision was made based on HDIGH sales, and ticket sales and Zayns ticket sales and pre-sales. That’s why the decision came now.

The very best replies always start with, “Listen. I get all that. But…”

Oh no

Much like Trader Joe’s fic Harry, I hoard multiple boxes of the pumpkin pancake mix so I can eat them all year. This morning was a pumpkin pancake type of morning, and it definitely feels like a step in the right direction.

When a day the begins with

“it’s all waiting there for you,”

recalls a day when

“But listen, right now, your entire family, plus one, are up there waiting for you…”

Was let forth into the world.

Happy Pub Day All in the Golden Afternoon. You brought me nearly everything. 🧡

The kind of day when you leave (literally, no hyperbole) 45 minutes of voice notes to @larrysmomfics.bsky.social

Why do you mean, another chapter? It’s done!🤣

“But Toad,” said Frog, “I will be lonely until then.”

It was a catastrophic Thursday for me and today just seems like a lot of sweeping up (and it’s only 8:30)

DM away. I’m here. I love this story, so I’ll answer anything.

I was like, huh, what does Mary mean, let me go—
Oh.
OH.
🤣

Barkowski was a real place that used to be just across the street and down a block. 🍻

If you’re ever curious, it’s based on the one in Santa Monica, on Pico Blvd, just west of Bundy. 🤣🛒

Mostly knocked over plants to see what would happen and asked to use the bathroom, so I could see what it looked like behind the scenes.

And I did RESEARCH.

Me tooooo

And of course I forgot the link bc I’m a moron archiveofourown.org/series/4959636

I’ve got a couple of shorties I’ve written (and another few in a LONG series, so don’t bother), but the two-part Trader Joes series is only about 50k altogether and the second part is dedicated to our dear @larrysmomfics.bsky.social

Happily!

I just read Keri’s post and I’m so tickled. Also, please please please for the love of god, read Thrill Seekers next.🧡

UPDATE: I actually decided to save it til tonight. I was exhausted on Friday.

Like, look. I almost don’t want to read it right away. I have busy days this weekend! I almost want to…I mean, maybe I can call in sick next week? And make a pot of really good coffee and really yummy raisin toast and stay in my comfy clothes until I’ve read the whole thing?

Because I might just.

Every time I try to describe one of Tabi’s fics to someone who has (so sadly) never read one, this is what I sound like:

“Ok, look. No. Seriously listen. Because… I mean, I can’t. Like, listen, when I say that it changed every- no I mean it did! Everything! Have you ever felt KNOWN? Because, this—“

Guess I’m not sleeping tonight.

(Also I’m so proud of you I could weep)

TABI.

Sigh. No. I heard that most of the things I wanted were sold out by Sunday. Did you?

No that’s real.
