  • Halloween starting early is just as dumb as Christmas, but Christmas is more annoying because a) the music, b) doesn't give an excuse to buy candy.

    If you're not buying peppermints and little chocolates wrapped in red and green foil all December long, you're doing Christmas wrong

    So says the Princess
    fair, but during halloween I can just like buy a huge bag of rockets and then eat em

    I mean, I never actually do that, but I could, and I'm okay with that option being open to me in early september

    Please do not abuse grammar so. It is most cruel to such an innocent being.

    I know, however

    these are the only things which deserve the name smarties

    they are also high on the list of things I would buy a bag of, if I were to buy a bag of candy

    I mean tbh they are basically the same thing as m&ms

    they are without a doubt superior, but still not really all the different

    Controversial statement: Reese's Pieces > M&Ms
  • image Wee yea erra chs hymmnos mea.
    Sorry, but the one true M&M is peanut.
  • right, I meant the plain chocolate m&ms, I don't think there are peanut smarties

    I'm not really a big fan of peanut anything tbh
  • image Wee yea erra chs hymmnos mea.
    Bags of dry roasted peanuts.
  • Feet are so weird looking.

    Or maybe that's just my feet.
  • my feet often have a cat attacking them

    the cat has cute little gray feet with toe 8eans.

    honey roasted peanuts are the best, followed by those peanuts with the hot pepper powder on them
  • Munch munch, chomp chomp...
    I remembered Jake was a total frigging dork, but I forgot just how much of one he was.

    The little personal moments are some of the things I liked best about Act 6, honestly.

  • Me: I really need to stop buying albums. My iPod is bloated with music and I don't have much of my student loan left.

    Me: Oooh, look! Two Foals albums on iTunes! Sweet!

    I'm a dumbass

    Last night I told Anonus I was going to rest for a few minutes, then I ended up sleeping the whole night through with almost no interruptions

    But it wasn't very restful sleep either...there was bullshit about fences and property lines and whose turn it was to use a tablet/notebook hybrid
  • Munch munch, chomp chomp...
    That sounds less like dumbness and more not accurately gauging how sleepy you are. Either way, sorry to hear.
  • Looking through my music, I apparently really like trance music. 
  • So I can buy two albums on iTunes on my laptop, and they automatically appear on my iPod without me having to plug it in.

  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    I have well over 1,000 albums on my computer

    none of it is trance, though

    the more weddings I have to go to the less I want to have one myself
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    I always felt like having a wedding would be excruciatingly degrading, for some reason.

    I want to have a wedding

    In part because my sister agreed years ago to help me pick out the prettiest dress
  • I need to find someone to marry first.

    If I do ever get married, it'll be a small but traditional affair.
  • I still remember that I had really bad food poisoning during my sister's wedding, but I still managed to walk down the aisle as a bridesmaid.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch

    In fact, the whole wizarding world is fundamentally small-c conservative—even for a Young Adult fantasy. The Cursed Child continues the tradition of abject sexlessness—desire and its difficulties are precisely nowhere in these stories.


    if anyone remembers back when i was fretting about my lack of romantic feelings somehow making me deficient as a writer, this was the kind of observation/criticism i was afraid of

    (note the association of sexlessness with conservatism here)

    anyway i thought that article was mostly alright

    it was not the denunciation of Rowling as a racist secret Tory Calvinist fundie that i was expecting

    it was just a fandom sorta thing really, a fan engaging with the political elements of the book but still obviously a fan
  • My dreams exceed my real life
    That bit is kind of bothersome in the way that a lot of criticism of HP Lovecraft is bothersome in pathologizing a lack of interest in sex.
  • My dreams exceed my real life
    Lovecraft's asexuality was easily one of the least objectionable quirks he had.

  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i'd assume 'sexy Lovecraft' would be some kinda Freudian-Gigeresque thing

    unrelated musing: "Steal My Girl" by One Direction has to be one of the least romantic songs ever written

    There was something I wanted to ask Tachyon next time they were around but I've forgotten what it was

    also, how are you?

    I'm doing ok!

    I got broadband installed at Grandma's house, since I'll be living here for at least a few months. So that's nice to have.

    Means I don't have to go to the public library to watch YouTube anymore. :P
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    That is good!

    Is Youtube even watchable over a library connection?  The connection speed in Stroud library was pretty slow last i checked.

    Imi, being a particle means i am small and i bump into things
  • I'm sad, at Buffalo Exchange there was a vintage leather jacket that fit perfectly in every way but then on the back there was a space where a Harley Davidson patch had been removed


    boooooooooo

    I think it's more like

    Lovecraft's characters never seem to be married, or express interest in marriage, or get married. They don't have romantic affairs, or seem interested in having romantic affairs. Romance or sexual passion are not things that ever seem to drive, or have driven, his characters.

    That said it's weird that people complain about that, because of how much people complain about that stuff always being forced into stories it doesn't belong in.
