  • I'm 97% done making a skirt! The broad strokes are done, it's now wearable, but I've got to fix some of my cock-ups and do the finishings. Hemming! Great! --_-- The major problem is that I didn't match up the elastic in the waistband perfectly to the side seams, so it's a couple of centimetres looser than I wanted. Fixable, it's just gonna be annoying. And yes, then I will have so much hemming to do. ... I don't know how long it's gonna take me to do that, considering that ADHD culture is doing 97% of a project in three days and that last 3% in three years.

  • Exam season has started and I'm helping to present an activity at the all-staff ~~EDI Showcase~~ next week, so if you hear screaming: it's fine, it's me.

  • It's been like six months, maybe I DO want to go back to twitter. I miss my friends! I didn't realise how much I was using twitter to passively keep up with everyone until I stopped, and uhhhhhhh accidentally socially isolated myself for six months. Whoops.

  • Starting going to the library recreationally again. I missed it! Especially because my local library has a really good selection of queer manga for me to rummage through.

  • One of the TTRPGs I'm in is a Scion game about kicking the shit out of white supremacists, and my character now has a biker jacket with THIS DYKE KILLS FASCISTS written on the back. :D

  • Watched Eurovision, German entry was FUCKING ROBBED. Also I'm so glad [twitter.com profile] JaigaEleph could explain to me why the Icelandic scores were given by the fucking Punisher, if for no other reason than her explanation described Hatari as "the anti-capitalist bdsm band."

  • Where do people even go to find out what fandom drama is going on anymore? If I just google "What has AO3 done this time" or "Why are people leaving Pinboard" will that get me anything?


ANYWAY: be safe, be well, don't get caught. ♥
