yeah turtlenecks are sexy too bad they’re also one of the worst sensory experiences fashion has ever developed
me wearing a turtleneck and fighting back nausea at the sensation: haha aren’t i hot *gags* anyone want to admit they have a crush on me
same thing with chokers. look how attractive and cool and punk i look now if you’ll excuse me i need to go take this off right now or i am going to throw up
every once in a while i learn some wild new piece of information that explains years of behavior and reminds me that i will never truly understand everything about my ridiculous adhd brain
ok what the fuck who was gonna tell me this isnt normal
what the fuck you mean to tell me that the way that i comically slide around things wasn't just me naturally shitposting
maybe the neurotypicals are just trolling us
THAT'S WHY I DO THAT?!?!?
TikTok is worth it for this video alone. Gonna have this on repeat for at least a week.
"The fate of Moya's true Pilot was sealed at that moment. So you see, Aeryn - it wasn't really you who caused her death. It was - me. If I hadn't agreed to come, Velorek may never have found a replacement Pilot."

the Vorkosigan series is almost entirely about twisty little bastards searching for enrichment
Even in Captain Vorpatril’s Alliance, when Miles is shunted off to a different planet to keep him out of it, Simon Illyan’s in there like “ah! a scheme! excellent!”
Honestly that plotline explains so much about Miles' career.
What Aral said: "There is no one else in the service I could honorably pressure to take (Miles) as a subordinate." What Aral meant: "I'm hoping he'll keep you occupied long enough to get me to retirement, dammit."

Gregor needs to be a twisty bastard for his personal wellbeing but isn't allowed to, which is why he absolutely lives vicariously through people like Miles and similar people who get into shenanigans instead of him.
You know when you're taking care of a child and they want to do something absolutely batshit and you're thinking, "WOAH, that sounds cool" but you have to be the Responsible Adult and say no, Elena, I know that the furniture would be really perfect for making a makeshift skate ramp but I don't think your mum would appreciate you skateboarding in the house? This is Gregor all the time.
Somebody comes to him with some batshit crazy idea and he puts his Serious Face on and pretends to deeply consider the issue but in his head his thinking, "Oh God, please please please do the crazy thing, I am really spoiling for some enrichment in my habitat." And then what he says out loud is, "I am not convinced, but I guess I will allow it as a personal favour to you if you absolutely insist."
#vorkosigans#this is canon#also the cetagandans don’t get this and this is why they’re doomed to failure#yeah they got their hands on some vorkosigan dna. best of luck with that#if they ever manage to make a lil hautkosigan they’re not gonna give it the environment it needs to flourish#they need to be able to cause problems on purpose
This dress isn’t plaid! The linen underdress and silk chiffon overlay are both striped, and running in opposite directions, to create the illusion of a plaid fabric. I am so delighted by how clever it is.
anyone in the DC area need a hot outfit for their Vulcan divorce? hmu
I was a weird kid and am now a weird adult but I wake up every day and thank god I wasn’t a weird kid in the age of tiktok and putting your face and government name next to dogshit takes
we can argue about queer rep in media until the heat death of the universe (and we will!) but u gotta admit: when someone says ‘the gay pirate show’ or ‘the gay vampire show’ or ‘the cartoon with the girlfriends with magic powers’ and you have to say “which one?” it feels pretty good
People keep tagging this with shows that are not the shows I was thinking of when I wrote this, which is wonderful.
Had a vintage buying appointment today, which was an hour of driving with no AC and two hours in a hoarder house with very little AC, but very much worth it for the amazing 40s and 50s dresses I got!
but also afterwards I was like, I need to be in the most heavily air-conditioned environment I can find for at least two hours, so I went and saw the Barbie movie.
I didn’t get photos of all of them but these are two of my favorites
