the funniest thing ever just happened to me
im changing my name purely bc i don’t like it and we just told my family like a month ago. i haven’t been home since then but today i got back and my (extremely country) uncle gives me a pat on the back and goes “so i hear you’re my nephew now. proud of you, son” and i have to very gently say i am so so happy to hear that but i am still his niece just with a cooler name. and he throws his hat down on the table and goes “no! but ive been practicing!” so now he is calling me his nephew for fun
Hi, so we had some thunder yesterday (which I love btw) and idk I was struck by the idea of Dream being afraid of thunder and Hob soothing him. Probably not Dream as the Endless he is, but maybe a human au or retired Dream… in any case I think he’d know that it’s probably irrational, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t flinch every time there’s the light and then again at the rumbling. Best to seek comfort in the arms of his oldest friend who so kindly offers and pay no mind to the way his heart keeps skipping a beat even between lightning, maybe for some other reason altogether? No, definitely not… right?
Yeah not really more than that, but I got the image and had to share it with someone!
Also, fun fact: I was once in a car that the lightning struck (or at least reaaally close to) and I still love thunder 😁
Pausing to take a moment to really appreciate your username re: this ask and then moving on to say: this feels like SUCH a good fit for the uni AU I'm definitely not writing (lol, lmao) so it's going in there

In hindsight, the most effective way to hide his embarrassment, Dream reflects, was perhaps not to curl up on the sofa with three blankets over his head, jumping at every clap of thunder.
The sound of Hob's footsteps approaching is the first he realises his mistake.
"Are you all right under there?" Hob asks, low and soft.
"Perfectly well," Dream lies. Another clap of thunder exposes him immediately, every muscle tensing at once.
Hob hums. He does not sound remotely convinced.
"Scared of thunder, then?" he asks.
"No," Dream objects. Another clap makes him a liar once again.
"Well you wouldn't be, I suppose," Hob says. "Not like me."
Dream hesitates a heartbeat, and then, cautiously, lowers the blankets from over his head, peering suspiciously at his friend.
Hob, in the same worn pyjama bottoms and a soft long sleeved t-shirt he has practically lived in over the term break, is a source of surprising comfort. Perhaps it ought not to be surprising.
"You are afraid of thunder?" Dream asks.
"Yep," Hob answers, glancing towards the window.
SEA IS FOR COOKIE!

At Ebooks Direct: Our Pride Month Package
...with an exclusive new release!
Warning! These works contain: homosexuals, bisexuals, lesbians, pansexuals, asexuals, polyamorous folks, genderfluid humans and nonhumans, two (or maybe three) varieties of magic-users, science-users, wizards and Dragons. Even occasional cissexual people.
And they've all been there since 1979.
Welcome to one universe where who you love and how your genders intersect is between you, your lover(s), and the Goddess. And another where wizards come in so many species and sexualities that getting sniffy about something as wildly variable as local sex and gender is (eyeroll) soooo provincial... when you're just one more of a million kinds of humanity, and the serious question is "Never mind the tentacles... do you think can we date?"
The collection contains:
- The Door Into Fire*
- The Door Into Shadow*
- The Door Into Sunset*
- Tales of the Five #1: The Levin-Gad
- Tales of the Five #2: The Landlady
- Sirronde's World #1: The Span
- Sirronde's World #3: Parting Gifts (SW #2 not yet written)
- Tales of the Middle Kingdoms #1: Lior and the Sea
Additionally, it contains the new just-dropped Tales of the Middle Kingdoms novella, Overdue—available only in this collection (and, way earlier than usual for a new release, in the whole-store "I Want Everything You've Got" collection) until the end of Pride Month.
And finally, from the Young Wizards universe, the collection contains the matter-of-fact exit from the (contextual) closet of two of the best-loved characters in the series—Advisory wizards Tom Swale and Carl Romeo—on their first canonically-"out" (ad)venture as a couple:
All the works above are available for individual purchase at Ebooks Direct at the (currently normal) 50%-off discount. This package, though, takes an additional 15% off that price. The Pride Month Package will be available at its reduced price, $18.99, until Pride Month's end (30 June 2023, 23:59 UTC).
wait, you co-wrote WHAT??? I’ve followed you since 2015 and I had no idea you ever worked on anything barbie related.
…how did you get involved in that, anyways, it seems fairly out of your usual wheelhouse?
(chuckle) I am, and was even two decades ago, an experienced screenwriter (and former animation story editor) with a strong background of working in/creating worlds for children/young adults. My screen agent in L.A. (gods rest her hardworking soul) was as usual looking out for work for me, and when she realized Mattel was hunting for someone to help develop this property, she said to them "I've got just the writer for you right here." And so she had. :)
Here's the problem, as usual: my readerships / viewerships are wildly fragmented. The Young Wizards fans often have no idea about all that Star Trek.* The Trek fans don't know about all the animation work. The readers of my short and long fiction don't usually know about the computer games, or the assorted live action TV and film. Etc., etc.
(shrug) ...This is what happens when you Follow Your Heart and jump into interesting new work when people offer it to you, instead of attempting to slavishly Brand Yourself. Most of the TV and film stuff is here (though still not all the Hanna-Barbera credits: I've got to look into that...). For those interested in what else might be going on, the best bet is to go over to DianeDuane.com, pull down the "Works" menu, and rummage around.
HTH!
*Last time we took an inventory, it looked like I've written Star Trek in more formats than anyone else alive: TV, audio, books, computer games, comics, manga. The only significant one I'm missing is film, but somehow I doubt I'll be able to fill that gap before I fall over. That's all right: I've got other fish to fry. :)

So the best thing about liverpool atm is that a lot of clubs are still riding the high of Eurovision and playing all of the songs. Which means that when you go out in gay town, sometimes they play Cha Cha Cha by Käärijä and have exchanges like
DJ: giz a cheer if you really like this song
Crowd: *cheers*
DJ: giz a cheer if you mainly like this song bc you just really fancy the fella and can't work out why
Crowd: *cheers louder*
DJ: Yeah I mean personally I'd suck him til he bleeds and idk why. But that's just me.
I’m not anti-technology, I just think there’s something deeply sick about a society where robots make art and children work in factories.

EXACTLY. And that is why he declared so far in advance. He thought it could thwart an indictment. 
He knew he'd be indicted because he deliberately ignored a request from the National Archives, refused to return all the documents required, did not secure the documents in his possession, told his lawyers to remove some documents before returning others, and lie to law enforcement about what was kept/returned. This goes above and beyond what Trumpsters accused Hillary Clinton of doing.
It's deliberately written as a narrative story and very easy to understand. The DOJ wanted us to see with our own eyes what the former guy did, when he did it, and why it was wrong.
Yes, it's 49 pages, but it's double-spaced with huge margins, crammed with photographs & tables. It only took me a few minutes, even accounting for the times I stopped to re-read some things because they are so batshit insane.
I guarantee you most people defending him haven't read it.
