It gets cold, and I prefer blankets over slippery nylon shit sleeping bags that claim to keep you warm below freezing and then dump you on the ground where all your body heat gets leeched out by the giant heat sink that is the earth.)

Tagged by @poplitealqueen, tagging everyone who wants to and no one in particular.

What is a big goal you are working towards?

Medical help with the ways my body hates me and my brain wants to kill me, so I can get my damned life back. It’s going to take a while.

What’s your aesthetic?

Eh. An eclectic mix of anything that catches my attention well enough? Future and past, science fiction and fantasy. Comfort, ease of use, practicality… and intricacy, sensuality, indulgence. And sometimes, just nothing, because everything is too much.

Do you collect anything?

People, ideas, stuffed animals, t-shirts.

What is a topic you’re always up to talk about.

My writing. Everything comes back to it. Probably because I use it to make sense of things. May be why it’s been hard to write lately, because too much isn’t making sense at all.

What’s a pet peeve of yours?

Telling me that my impact is all that matters and never my intent, while someone else’s intent is all important, and their impact is irrelevant*. Or any other means of saying that only specific people get to be people.

*also relevant when the person trying to say this is part of a privileged group trying to say that a marginalized group’s impact is important, but not their intent, while the more privileged group’s intent is important, but not their impact.

Very loud music – the worst is heavy on the bass to the point I can feel it and/or late-night impromptu concerts out of someone’s car.

Good advice to give?

Survival is a victory. Everything else is bonus. Enjoy your bonuses, and don’t be hard on yourself when all you can manage in a day is survival.

Recommend three songs:

(Must it be only three? *pouts*)

– Black Swan Rises, by Annwn

– Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (Theme) – Metal Cover, by Captain Meatshield

– Hammer To Fall, by Queen

A food that’s nasty in your opinion:

Sauerkraut. Especially any of the crap you get in stores in the US. I can’t get it past my nose, much less past my tastebuds. It’s a foul stench and an inedible mess, at least for me.

New meme:

type in “I’m” in the tags and use the first tag that appears

#I’m so tired

…I mean you’re not wrong…

#I’m going to hel

Yeah, well… I doubt I’d die in some glorious battle so…

#i’m not a psychopath

……. no, of course not…

#I’m fine

(but in my defense the second one was #tell me i’m pretty which is WAY more accurate tbh)

#i’m glad this doll was made

Ok? But the second one said #i’m married. Which is true, and I just got to spend Sunday morning out  with my husband.

#im bored

Well, yes

#assume I’m dead

I…don’t even remember typing that?

well clearly I think pretty highly of myself 😀

#but i’m a cheerleader

Okay, that’s clearly worth coming in first! (See the movie if you haven’t already, it’s a treat!)

#i’m just saying

accurate.

#i’m going to hell

#i’m so tired

^ accurate

#if i’m going to get sucked in, and the second one is #i’m taking everyone who follow me with me

I think they make a decent statement of intent regarding fandoms. 🙂

When you get this reply answer with 5 things that make you happy and then send it to the last 10 people from your activity notes (if you wanna). :)!

deadcatwithaflamethrower:

Uhm…I’m not even sure I know how to FIND my activity notes.

Also I’m  having a difficult time coming up with words of things that make me happy, which is usually a sign that I’m overtired and/or sick. Fuck. I was hoping it was just allergies.

uhm…

Mate/Podlings/Cats/PeopleNotBeingDicks/WorkingPainkillers?

Participate if you have the spoons to figure out what activity notes are, I guess.

*hugs you gently* I shall play, though this was surprisingly difficult. (Anyone who wants to play may play, I’m not up to sending out asks for this.)

imagineyouricon:

Imagine your icon found a machine to clone themselves. Later that day you go outside only to find clones of your icon EVERYWHERE.

I think my icon is a nationally needed contribution.

Google maps stock rises. Speed limits become mere suggestions. Everyone without a sense of direction is lost. Chaos reigns. 

I sit back and laugh. 

Depends on how it clones, but words and bees and honeycomb everywhere.
