Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Honestly, my spring and summer clothes, for the most part, are super bland and uninspiring

Get some summer colors going! Stretch that palette!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

You probably heard us discuss all the plot points and performances in pretty close detail as well. Though I don't think my and Plei's endorsements of Steve Rogers' introductory sparring scene could carry the same impact as seeing it with your own eyes...

Must be seen. Is true.

Very glad that the fire department was so good at their job, Matt. Yikes!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

We stopped by the birthday party for the daughter of friends of ours. Minus Mr. S, but we had been told it was ok for us to come by.(Although it was held 40 minutes from our house, so not "we were in the neighborhood" close.)

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

No clothing sorting chez Zmayhem--rapid turns in the weather mean that everything's in constant rotation because we might need any of it at any time. There are days when wearing a velvet gown is silly, but also days when it isn't, all year long.

ION, I visited with a high school friend, went out and thrifted (fruitlessly) at Goodwill, just like a normal person does, and then sat in a bookstore. Feel very human. I like it.

Feel very human. I like it.

Yes, this is fantastic. This is good.

I'm a fucking amazing catch!--Fiona Gallagher, Shameless(US)

Yeah, I understand the kids like it...doesn't happen enough for me, either.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Seemingly, in London, there's a musical based on The Great British Baking Show (Bake-Off there). Sounds like a lot of fun.

Thrive to spite them

Yikes about the fire!!

I have problems with fandic and remembering what actually happened and what didnt. Sometimes. The only fic I've read extensively for a shoe or movie I haven't really watched is Teen Wolf. I kept seeing authors I liked wrote it and tried` it. I tried the show. I did not like it enough to continue it.

We are headed back today. Had a great visit yesterday with my aunt and her sweetheart, who runs the Gulf Specimen Marine lab. I played tech support and got him back into hos Facebook account amd set him up on Instagram. And fou d out he is a tiktok addict.

And now we are on our way home. Hopefully we will have as a good a trip back as we did going down

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Witcher fic is its own ball of confusion. Is the fic an AU? Is it based on the books? The video game? The Netflix show? The Polish show? Is it based on an earlier fic that basically ate the fandom for a while?

I saw AO3 announced it's reached 11 million fics. Wow
