Happy Zombie Jesus Day, friends.

Being a librarian (and a nerd) has been my entire personality for the past decade and now I'm just a nerd.

If anyone has leads for remote work for someone with an MLS, hit me up <3

BIL is otw over to talk w/her with us so we can idk, convince her to see her primary when she gets home? She hasn’t been seen by the or her nephrologist since September (and has lied about it) and I doubt she’ll schedule it without help. I honestly don’t know why I’m trying at this point :/

Like, she’s too frail for a kidney transplant after years of not treating her diabetes. I showed her how to get discounts on insulin, tried to get her on Medicaid, etc. she wouldn’t follow through if one of us wasn’t doing it for her. I’m sad and frustrated and dreading how this affects my family.

I’ve been scared of her dying in my apartment since before Christmas, and now that she’s leaving I’m pretty sure this is the last time we’ll see her. How do I tell my kids that? How do I help my husband be ok? We’ve bent over backwards for years to help w/her health.

Idk how to handle this. My MIL has stayed with us for 3 months. She’s in end stage kidney failure and won’t be proactive about her own health. After a hospital stay last week, the doctor told her to check blood sugar and BP 2x a day. Just found out last night she hasn’t been doing it.

Oof called out

Fellow writers: I am deeply saddened to share that if we want the rewards of having written, we must submit to the mortifying ordeal of writing

My Chemical Romance- The Black Parade

There’s not a single skip for me 🖤

We're in the DADA revival.

It is January 7th and I am already physically, emotionally, intellectually, and spiritually exhausted.

Not me doing a Montauk deep dive at work after bingeing Stranger Things for the last couple of months 😅

As we enter the New Year remember fear of making bad art is holding you back. Fear of people not liking your work is holding you back. Rejection is holding you back

You'll make bad art, you'll have people not like your work, and you'll be rejected. Moving past it is half the job of being a creative

I’ve been stuck on the same chapter of this fic for like 2 months? 3, maybe? Idk. It’s been a while. I keep going back over it and, as much as I want it to feel right, there’s something off. So I brainstormed another idea to move the story along and I think it’s going to work this time <3

I want to believe that the easter eggs and variants and all of that are supposed to be some kind of social experiment about brand/artist loyalty, but I think that aspect was accidental XD

That said, I'm terribly underwhelmed by The Life of a Show Girl and, after Midnights and TTPD, I really expected that lyrical momentum to keep going. Instead, this is the most commercial album she's put out and nothing about it feels new. :/

I think easter eggs (in media) are so fun, but Taylor Swift might be overdoing it a bit.

There are 12 orange (Karma) doors around the world, and they all have a QR code to a lyric video.

I was hoping that the Chicago one, being above a Yoko Ono quote about peace, would have a deeper meaning XD

Teach me your ways!!

9.13: MCR in Tampa
10.2: CR Campaign 4!
11.19: Mighty Nein!
12.12: B-day!

There are a few other birthdays and celebrations in there, but those are the big moments that I'm looking forward to over the next four months.

Live your life in such a way that, upon realizing that you are probably p seriously ill, millions of people are not torn between hoping you die as soon as a body can possibly shuffle off its mortal coil and hoping that you survive long enough to go to prison and die there.

I’m trying to figure out logistics (aka $) to go with @prismaticbard.bsky.social in November!

It’s so hard to narrow this down, but Eleanor Rigby <3

I stopped in for some silly earrings and it was all millennials and older and toddlers??

This is gorgeous and terrifying. You’re a brave crafter to tackle brioche! XD

Like, whatever happened to tweens shopping in Claire’s?

Positive to writing my first draft as a fic: Feedback along the way & motivation not to stop writing
Negative: Getting stuck in an editing loop before posting so that it takes forever for updates (sorry, dear readers)

I hate posting something unpolished, but it’s making this slow.
