This Man Is An Actual Wizard Doing Actual Magic.

I need to show this to my kid

Just finished reading a Zeetha-focused AU that was simultaneously one of the best fics I've read in ages, and one of the most frustrating.

The basic change point was a good one, the changes that would follow from it were well thought out, the peeks into Zeetha's head fit with both who she is in canon and the version of her in this AU. But...

The whole thing (more than 216000 words in three stories) was riddled with the sort of grammar errors you get when you trust your spell check too much. To/too/two mixed up, "there" when it should have been "their", and so on.

I'm only a grammar purist when I'm professionally required to be, but the mistakes in this one were significant enough to be a distraction from the story. Which is a shame, because like I said, the STORY was really good.

It was like trying to walk a trail through beautiful scenery, but not being able to relax and enjoy the beauty because you keep stubbing your toe on roots and rocks sticking up in the middle of the path.

Too late for me. Now I'm praying the embroidery hyperfixation comes back in time for me to finish this set of Christmas ornaments before next Christmas.

hyperfixation please stay with me long enough to complete the project. hyperfixation do not fade. hyperfixation finish what you started for the love of god

If you don't have a person handy to do this to, try going to YouTube and searching for "[your favorite piece of media] reaction".

It's really easy to find folks reacting to music, and there are also some folks who do reaction videos for movies, games and shows.

You can never experience watching your favourite show for the first time again, but you CAN convince someone else to watch your favourite show and vicariously enjoy all their raw reactions to seeing it for the first time, which is honestly nearly as good.

Current knitting: a simple garter stitch scarf, using fuzzy yarn from Dollar Tree. I'm working in random colors, with two strands together. The goal is warmth and softness rather than beauty.

Current reading: "Area X" by Jeff Vandermeer. This is the omnibus edition of the Southern Reach trilogy. I finished the first book, and honestly, I'm not sure I'd keep going if the second book wasn't in the same volume. It's not bad, but it's a very different writing style than I usually read.

I get so frustrated with myself sometimes. I have THOUGHTS about a serious topic, but when I try to express them, they never make as much sense to other people as they did in my head.

I've also considered stargazing and archery.

planning to start birdwatching soon cause all of my hobbies go like this

I'm going to start calling Agatha's little clanks her clinks

My absolute favorite outfit from the 2025 Met Gala, because of its sheer cleverness.
