Happy 420 to all who celebrate!

Infowars/Onion combo logo in rainbow saying “I support the onion’s hostile media takeover.”

It’s finally happened. After 18 months. Finally, a media merger you can root for.

Yes, we are all deeply interested to know if the damage will be reversed.

Good riddance. She set back LGBTQ+ rights in the workplace 50 years.

Anyways stumbling upon old emails from my ex-fiancé who ended up stalking me after we broke up was *super* traumatizing and just oodles fun! I’m sure that in no way will affect my mood for the rest of the night, ha… ha ha…

I’m gonna go hug my spouse now and tell them how amazing they are k bye ✌️

Why can my hyperfocus never fucking work the way *I* want it to?? 😭

I swear EVERY SINGLE TIME I want to set aside time for myself, I end up doing some MEANINGLESS and tedious task until my eyes bleed and I come out of a stupor having to remind myself what year it is after looking at thousands of ‘Indeed Apply’ emails that autogenerated to me during my last job hunt

Me 3 hours ago: I’m motivated & going to write!

Me, 3 hours later, bags under my eyes: I accidentally opened up my old college email and instead deleted all 3,000+ junk mail, newsletters, Amazon delivery notifications, etc etc since I opened the account in 2010

What is WRONG with me (rhetorical)

Ah, I remember this poem. The one about the mother trying to sell the concept of life to her children as if a real estate agent, chirping on about how it has ‘good bones’. A really great poem.

"What does God need with a starship?"

Why does it always trace back to antisemitism somehow. Can they at least do something original for fucking once and leave the Jews alone

BLUESKY IS A WEBSITE THAT TURNS (post by jay.bsky.team claiming that bluesky is made with AI) INTO (picture of bluesky not working)

Be sure to share them here! Would love to read more of them always 💜

HELL YEAH

HELL YEAH CONGRATS TO OUSTING ORBAN HUNGARY 🇭🇺 🎉🎉🎉

But I will transcend and vomit this loser out of me! I will become the next big thing. I will light myself on fire. It’s time to get out of bed and be the starchild I can be.

Text from the Wikipedia article about Rainer Maria Rilke’s personal life. It reads: “Between October 1911 and May 1912, Rilke stayed at the Castle Duino, near Trieste, home of Princess Marie of Thurn und Taxis. There, in 1912, he began the poem cycle called the Duino Elegies, which would remain unfinished for a decade because of a long-lasting creativity crisis. Rilke had developed an (cuts off)”

As usual, Rainer Maria Rilke you get me 😭

P.S. - Can you fuckin believe I paraphrased Rainer Maria Rilke in a post about fanfiction smut???

Yes you can, because this isn’t the first or the last time I’ll pull this shit ✨😌 read good books you fuckers, it makes better smut 🔥😈

Anyways - in case you were wondering how your favorite fluff n’ smut HSR #raturine / #sampard writer was doing ✨not well✨ hahahaha~

We’ll get back to your regularly scheduled programming soon.

Until then, don’t forget to STAY TUNED ✨

I’d love nothing more than to say fuck it to the world and live off of my writing in general. I also know how unreal that is for me, and it’s not really why I write. I write for the same reasons Rilke said: because I need it like the air I breathe. Whether it be smut or not, I gotta WRITE eventually

I also know that I’m by and far not the only job-seeker feeling the pinch right now - it’s because of universal slopification that we’re all here. If anything, that’s MORE reason to write and stay human, not less.

But, being a human, I need rest, time to process, and frankly? To grieve a bit.

Anyways, I’m not the type to sit around and feel sorry for myself for long. I’m already using this time wisely by attending to my physical health as best I can, staying engaged with my community, and even upskilling myself in this AI-sloppy market. But I figured you should know it’s not all roses.

I know I will heal. I know I will get through this. I know that honestly, this was a long time coming (the company did 8? 9? rounds of layoffs before finally letting me go, I lost count)… but that doesn’t make it any less hard.

Running a writing server puts the pressure on even harder. I’m not only encouraging myself to write, but OTHERS to write - and it’s hard not to feel like a hypocrite when I can barely type a few sentences together most days, when this time 1-2 years ago I would spent sleepless nights writing bangers

Honestly, I really love writing, but following my Muse is a fickle thing. Sometimes she is bountiful, and sometimes she makes me starve in the middle of winter without nary a prompt than can move my hand one jot.
