@monjinator.bsky.social asked me today if this was happening to me too. Weirdly, it’s not!

I am told the first time was in the theater when Ursula gets big at the end of The Little Mermaid, but I can’t say I have actual memories of this. Just was told the story.

This is probably not the first time, actually. But it was a memorable time!

I saw The Shining on television a shade too young and the lady in the bath plus freaky furry and party goer PLUS blood elevator was much too much for me.

I still think the story was told nonsensically out of order and would have been served so much better by at least twice as many episodes!

Ugh. Now I’m just annoyed that the finale was good enough I’m not sure I care about all of this show’s stupid flaws!!

I keep thinking about how much I liked Sterling Point, but there really needs to be like 15 more episodes of it. I need teen soap vampire diaries style roller-coaster plotting. I miss it so much.

When I bake for the holidays now (since 2020) I do it over two or three days and I bake maybe 7-10 dozen to distribute to friends and family. When I’m testing recipes for my big cookie project, I make two dozen sometimes in an evening after work.

Fuckin’ release comedies in theaters, cowards!

I have literally started four or five fics in half as many days. I am usually quite focused specifically on that and only that. So it’s weird. Weird, bad times.

Sunshot Champagne @sunshot.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

👍 I can explore both options. Thanks!!

Afterhours is one I haven’t picked up yet, so I’m happy to hear that. Did you get the arc on edelweiss? 👀

Sunshot Champagne @sunshot.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Yes! That is what notified me how far behind I have fallen

Sunshot Champagne @sunshot.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

I think there’s at least two out that I haven’t read yet. And another one coming in six months

How am I so behind on reading new Cat Sebastian books??

Sunshot Champagne @sunshot.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

Ugh. Boo, Instagram. You know what I like but you don’t fucking know me. I’ve been like this for decades.

Sorry I usually try not to be so negative in my online critiques, especially as something is airing. But tonight’s episode was such a waste of my time even though there are pieces of an interesting mystery and John Stewart fucking rules!!

Sunshot Champagne @sunshot.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

I think Lanterns might encapsulate everything wrong with current comics/superhero media AND prestige television. Not enough of an interesting story, told out of order and with terrible pacing.Joyless and boring.

Sunshot Champagne @sunshot.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

I went on one measly walk after two months of being too sick for exercise and now I have all these ideas for writing my stupid fanfictions. What gives?!

Now she’s talking to her dog. Her: my dog wants to talk to me. I think video games are neat but lol I never want to play one unless it’s a stupid matching game on my phone.

Me looking over @malinarose.bsky.social’s shoulder while she’s playing Baldur’s Gate 3: Is that character’s name Dream Visitor? Her: …Yes. She then spent three full minutes telling me this character’s deal—It’s the first time they talked. It’s really the mind flayer! Later they can fuck!!

On winning and losing (and Ilya Rozanov) is wrapping up and it’s been excellent this entire time. The last posted chapter was so fucking satisfying. archiveofourown.org/works/820871...

Very happy to be on the gay bocce team this year.

But thank you. I’ll be okay, it’s just been a major source of anxiety for the last week and a half and I’m still kicking myself and feeling very dumb. Even tho this scam was sophisticated!!

Sunshot Champagne @sunshot.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Moral of the story: don’t let scammers fluster you into giving them way more personal information than an online seller would need. ☠️☠️☠️ crypto dot com will not give you your money back because their life blood is criminal activity. 🤮

Sunshot Champagne @sunshot.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Anyway, I still don’t know for sure if the bank will give me my money back. Fuck everything.

Have layoffs in the federal government finally caught up with us on this front? Or like, did they stop enforcing yet another regulation? Or both?!

Sunshot Champagne @sunshot.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

I want to talk about how an alarmingly large number of people in my real life and online circles have recently been phished or scammed or hacked or have had a close call.

Sunshot Champagne @sunshot.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Yeah I’ve been fighting with crypto dot com all week just to find out they won’t (and were probably never going to) give me my stolen money back. Waiting on the bank to make a decision now. It was a lot of money, but I’ll be okay. It just fucking sucks so much. Why do we have to live this way???

Sunshot Champagne @sunshot.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

That sucks. I was phished trying to sell something on Poshmark a week and a half ago. All this shit is getting worse and worse. :(

Sunshot Champagne @sunshot.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Wah. I love the tennis club so much!

Sunshot Champagne @sunshot.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Things continue to be shit, but now new chapter of The Tennis Club. Could this perhaps turn my night around?
