hey if you're feeling mentally all over the place it's nice to read a book

Old fashion cupcake! Also she wants to cook, she wants to eat 😊

I watched Rafiki yesterday and I enjoyed it so much!! The colors were gorgeous and the story was beautiful and packed a punch.

Currently scrolling my phone in a library full of books... if this doesn't say anything about my mental state 😵‍💫

Update... still haven't read it because life has been 😵‍💫

I sadly ended up not finishing the first volume. Maybe I should try reading a book by Sammon first.

I haven't read anything in weeks and now I'm reading the Manner of Death manga - the manga artist didn't know about the school uniforms in Thailand. Other than that it is a bit different from the series, but then again it is based on the book!

I will entirely skipping @eurovision.tv again for its unacceptable shameless political choice to platform a violent, terrorist, genocidal Israel.

You should too, even if Eurovision is "fun" or "massive for engagement" - the EBU is choosing to ignore genocide. Don't be like or support the EBU.

Tagesschau-Post: Krah und Helferich - Umstrittende Politiker in AfD-Fraktion

Ich kann das Wort "umstritten" in Bezug auf solche Menschen wirklich nicht mehr hören. Es ist nichts anderes als verharmlosend. Medien dürfen Dinge klar benennen & müssen keine Diskussion abbilden, die es eigentlich nicht gibt.

Diese Menschen sind grob rassistisch, sexistisch und NS-verherrlichend.

My biases truly went xu minghao (svt) > xiao dejun (wayv) > han hyeongjun (xdz)

I mean, I currently am a huge xdinary heroes fan (watch their stuff w an adblocker and try not to listen to their music too much), and it really makes me want to try and learn the guitar (I have short fingers and small hands... ukulele might be easier)

It's been a while since I stopped being a seventeen stan (for hybe's zionist reasons and generally not liking their music anymore) but seeing Minghao in Chuang... he was my 17 bias and it truly stung a bit.

Went into the hashtag of a group I like and after one scroll I saw Spanish, a post in a language that uses Cyrillic and Thai? So maybe it works, but no guarantee 🤷🏻‍♀️

I unchecked every language, I think English only is the default (which sucks, bc not everyone is English-speaking only...). I might go into tags and check what I can see now

It does say that if you leave it unchecked, all languages will be displayed, but I haven't tried that out yet 😬

I bought a book from 1992 yesterday at a second hand store that has crossover fanfic of literary characters from the 1800s. Can't wait to read it!

So... uh, might come back here for a bit. Kpop and bl fandom is still mostly on the bird app but I'd rather have a space where I can write my thoughts without Musk looking over my shoulder...

I'm still watching, but at a slower pace. I really got sucked into miseinen and it's taking up all of my brainpower...

The first episode of Thamepo the series was actually quite good!! The production value felt way higher than the general standard for gmmtv bls. It reminded me of the trainee, in a way. I will wait and see (but I am also not afraid to drop it if it isn't to my liking).

I also started learning a new language and it is very taxing but I like it so far 😊 but that has also been on hold since Monday 😭

Haven't been able to read in several days 😭 work took all my energy and today was the last class before exam season 😭

I use mostly they/them pronouns for myself /don't really gender myself without language. But in German... that is whole other story. I truly need to read more about being trans and pronoun options in German/the other languages I know except English....

Just finished reading this German non-fiction graphic novel about gender (Gender-Kram). It made me question the way I basically only interrogate my own queerness through using the English language.

Reading about someone's relationship w their mom that is quite different from mine and yet similar in small things, truly makes me reflect...

Also I am reading a (semi)autobiographical novel and I find the blurring of memoir and fiction very interesting if sometimes confusing, since I do follow this person on social media. Having access to an aspect of a stranger's personality sure is complex

I just replied to every message I still had unread somewhere. It feels weird, like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders...

Tried reading a Moomin-book in Swedish today and I realized I read so much slower in Swedish 😭 10 pages took me ages. Whoever thinks children's books in a foreign language are easier, think again...

It's called 고양이 선여 by Bu Hui-Ryeong but I read it in the French translation Féline. It was quite alright, got better towards the end, but the male cat protagonist is infatuated w the female human protagonist. Still, the cat voice and view on human ways of living and interacting was interesting!

I am reading this korean novel from the pov of a cat and it is weird
