Also, completely unrelated to that, I get self-conscious now every time I use "consume" in this sense because I've seen so many rants, but I mean it not as commerce but as devouring I ingest it into myself and it fuels and becomes part of me in mysterious ways

Every so often the assorted media I'm consuming at a given time suddenly gang up to give me an impromptu therapy session

It's this achingly sad poem about a guy riding a ferris wheel and hoping it will stop in the clouds, where it's beautiful, and being extremely alone

I recently got cotton gloves to deal with handling cardboard and it was life-changing Obviously only works if cotton gloves are okay sensorily - I don't really like wearing any kind of gloves but it's way better than touching cardboard

Prisoner of Zenda? The Scarlet Pimpernel?

This is probably the correct choice but Gaudy Night WAS the first Wimsey book I ever read, so the obsession can take hold either way

I will never stop clowning on Fei Du for "I am the abyss," it's the funniest thing anyone has ever said. If Luo Wenzhou had heard it he'd be throwing it in Fei Du's face every day, but he wasn't there, so I gotta do it for him.

My whole teenagerhood my parents despaired of teaching me self-discipline, and several decades on I still haven't really learned it, but I have mastered the art of arranging conditions so that I'll spontaneously wish to do the things I ought to be doing.

Isn't that what chaps in PG Wodehouse books do to fix a race? ...maybe not quite the non-British linguistic perspective that you're looking for, but that's my only association to the word

When there's a lot of external movement my brain sometimes simply refuses to take on new story. It has enough Events and Changes to process and it is not interested in more "for fun." Or so it seems

Every fall, when I put on my jacket for the first time, I find the little fingerless gloves my friend Claire knit for me. Claire passed away a few years ago, but these gloves hold my hands every year, and I'm so sad and so thankful.

Did I tell you the story about how I lived like this for a year and a half because I thought it was in an inaccessible attic, and then it turned out to be at the bottom of a bag in my office?

Me, bemoaning the lack of Lu Jia/Zhou Huaijin fic for years p大:I got you babe

Literally the plot of this fic is: Vier starts university! He makes some new friends! He hangs out with old friends over break! Some of them receive good news! Vier: I Am In Hell And I Am Its Sole Demon

Ginny @vbruth.com · 22/09/2026
What's great about writing Vier GMA is the actual plot can consist entirely of perfectly normal, even pleasant events, and yet he in his own mind is being raked over burning coals

This is a canary resuscitator, which miners would use to revive canaries that had passed out from toxic gas, because ideally not only do you care, you don't even leave the bird behind. just a little mining history and not at all a furious scream

Sometimes I dream a creative project and then wake up just enough to refine a bunch of details, fully invested in whatever my sleep brain decided was a good idea. My favorite recent one was a story about an editor whose job it is to deal with plots that have been ruined due to isekai.

Same!! I love the writing part so much. I can never tell how much of people's complaining is genuine and how much of it is because we've internalized that that's how we're supposed to talk about writing.

A lot of people are not well right now: physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. This is an excellent time to de-escalate conflicts and to lean into patience. This is true in our personal lives and also (maybe especially) online when it's overwhelmingly strangers crashing into each other.

Baffled, mostly. Flip a coin on whether seeing me would have made her skip the early 20s swerve toward fundamentalism, or gone even harder in an attempt to forestall the heathen queer future.

When I was living with the bad exes they were all reading it, one of them via podfic I guess? Anyway I have a vivid memory of walking into the kitchen and hearing some of it and being like "this sounds... bad" (inside my head because dissent was not actually encouraged in that household)
