Libra: A sudden shiver. The icy embrace of death? No, you just get real cold a lot lately. It's OK. Doesn't worry you. Look, no omens. No portents. Well, you do spot one skeleton. Looks pitiful in the light of day. Lonely. You shake off a vanishingly rare warm thought about mass graves.

Mary Shelley: sup fuckers
Poe: joanne was explaining death of the author
Poe: what do you think, mary
Shelley: death of the author eh?
Shelley: [brandishing swicthblade] i think it's a good idea

What you think of the quality of HP, whether you think it's bad or good or embarrassing or important, doesn't matter. What matters is its author is making money off it to funnel into stripping trans people of their rights. I'd give up literally anything if that was the consequence of loving it.

Spare yourself, it is *so* stupid.

It can be a surprise for Future!Krista when all the tell-all books come once this is all over

Huzzah!

White-haired Morgaine stands triumphantly with arms stretched overhead as she draws a gleaming sword from sheath. A gate frame her from behind. The central portal is filled with a field of stars and the outer edge of the gate is patterned with futuristic circuitry. On one knee before Morgaine, a warrior grips the handle and crossguard of a curved sword with the tip of the blade planted in the ground.

They just want their steak, nothing illegal about that!

just discovered that at some point in the past month I made a playlist called "perimenopause" that just has one song on it: Goodbye Earl

you know Mr. Bree is extremely secure in his relative awesomeness that this does not bother him. 🤣

you will have to pry the millennial “lol” from my cold dead hands. i don’t know how else to express minor despair. if i didn’t say “lol” after admitting i’m a husk inside, i’d have to develop emotional resilience, and i simply don’t have time for that

October 7!

FRED

yes

It looks so warm!

wooo!

Libra: You will finally get everything you deserve this year, which is great news for your enemies.

In an ocean of bad-faith Heated Rivalry takes full of specious arguments and cherrypicked facts, Salon has published one so rancid that I need to pick it apart.

Don't worry, I'm not female or a woman, so I love it the right amount and also I get to be as angry and as mean as I want 😌.

Isn't he from Quebec? He should definitely be smoking already
