the Vitamin
tumblr post "My deepest darkest fantasy is that I collapse on the street and I am rushed to the hospital. They perform a bunch of tests and find out I am severely deficient in some kind of vitamin. Then I start taking the vitamin and I become the happiest cleverest person alive because all my problems were caused by this one deficiency"

reply from another user "Moreover, everyone gathers around to be tremulously compassionate and discreetly admiring: all this time, you lacked the Vitamin? And yet you persevered?"

got bloodwork results back from my physical last week, and it turns out I'm anemic and need to start taking iron supplements. I'm very excited for The Vitamin to fix everything ever that's wrong with me

wet socks and shoes ALL DAY. normally I keep a spare pair of socks at my desk for if my feet get wet walking to the bus on rainy days, but I guess I forgot to bring in new ones after the last time it rained. awful awful awful

I had to drive to work after, so it very easily dried in my hot car parked in the sun during the day, which was convenient, but it did make my car smell strongly of chlorine 🥲

relistening to Wolf 359, and wow turns out my immediate attachment to Doug/Hera wasn't just my typical human/robot shipper goggles. I'd forgetten we got hit with "take me away sweetheart" & "hey baby, did you miss me?" by episode FOUR

The second tragedy is that the custom work!slack emojis are not available to me in other places. That post deserved the sad cowboy emoji

The swimsuit dryer centrifuge thing at the pool is broken. Truly a tragedy of our times 😔

I don't think I have any spooky/creepy horror beyond what you've already listened to, but if you're also interested in weird/future/technology horror-adjacent fiction podcasts: - Sinkhole - The Deca Tapes - Badlands Cola - Wireland Ranch

even without the constraints of money/success, I'm simply not interested in Doing All That. I don't want to do management and marketing and finances, I want do do hyperspecfic engineering work and leave the rest to other people

lmao, I have a new favorite cheesy sports commentator line. Said after a water polo goal scored over the goalie's head, right between her arms, "she took a trip to the doughnut shop!"

So instead, when I left my house this morning I discovered a brick sitting on our front porch. And until I saw the note underneath it, I was like "is this a threat?!??"

Shmaylor @shmaylor.bsky.social · 21/04/2026
My neighbor left a note apologizing for construction noise, but must not have wanted to put it in our mailbox (fair, since that's technically a crime if you're not USPS), and clearly didn't want it to blow away in the wind (also fair),

Okay okay it seems to be stopped. Murder and tears both suspended for now

my fic has received over 100 kudos in less than 24 hours, and while I'm delighted that people are enjoying it, my podficcing ass is going to HURL. my delicate constitution is unused to this sort of treatment, and humans are not built for this many kudoses in one day I think!!

ahhh, okay I did the thing! archiveofourown.org/works/79890166 A 6k fic for the hockey show that dares to ask the question: "What if Ottawa's management were the stupidest people alive and didn't want Ilya on their team?"

soooo, relatedly, does anyone want to beta read a 6.5k thing? I don't need a super in-depth read, mostly just want to know if I've made any egregious 'hockey does not work that way' mistakes. the fic is approximately 50% feelings, 10% sex, and 40% media strategy and contracts lmao
