You know what I find really wonderful? Voice in writing.
It's so cool to me that our written language is expressive enough that each individual can have a distinctive sound irrespective of the actual content. It's cool to me that those voices are identifiable; I bet there's a number of you I could pick out of a lineup by text alone.
It's cool to me that every time I pick up a book, I need a few dozen pages to really feel out the rhythm of that particular writer.
I started in on reading Bone Dance since it's been recommended to me like three times :)
The writing style doesn't quite resonate with me yet but I have a lot more to read!
I may have pitched the prequel novella already but anyway,
Fun book recommendation: Into the Drowning Deep; Mira Grant
It's like Jurassic Park but oceanic, a lot gayer, and with undiscovered mermaids. Also one of the leads is autistic and presented in a way that I find nice.
Reading the novella isn't necessary. This hits most of the same beats, only better.
(thanks @cyndisision@witches.town !)
So I got around to watching San Junipero
and
I'M GAY.
It's really nice when I ask for book recommendations and among the suggestions are two of my favorite series and a third book that I really enjoyed. Makes me believe more in the other stuff suggested alongside :)
Anyone have random book recommendations for something fun to read?
That feeling when watching a show and being so confused at being unable to understand the dialogue for the five minutes it takes to realize that subs aren't on.
Turning it on makes the overhead room light start to strobe.
Apparently yr electrician gf didn't notice that it wasn't plugged in.
The cord was not actually long enough to reach any plugs at the appliance's placed location.
I think a good test of media savviness is "can you detect a piece's bullshit even when it's bullshit you agree with?"

@starkatt By showing people epic-length fanfics that are better than the original published work.
Like the one I found on Tumblr once where Harry is a Squib, but because McGonagall refuses to go easy on him he becomes good enough at theoretical magic to lead Dumbledore's Army anyway
and an inspiring enough leader that he can mobilize his classmates to kill Voldemort in the end
and afterward he and Hermione become advocates for Squib rights
The microwave in this hotel room has a dial and no buttons and I have no idea how to operate it.
I wish I knew how to communicate the idea that to our generation, Harry Potter is at least as much shared mythological framework as it is actual text.
Love it whenever someone sees and boosts one of my old pinned posts :)
Would you move into a house the previous resident believes is haunted?

DST gripe, salty
Dear America, DST is utter bullshit. Pick a clock setting and stick with it. It's not difficult - the duration of the 'forward' setting keeps getting extended and will wrap the calendar /eventually/. Hurry up already and speed it to its natural conclusion.
inpatient medical, meds
Gfdi apparently I need to be meeting sure they're actually giving my my psych meds, even though they were all listed during intake.
Nurse: "so you take the Latuda at home. Would you like to keep taking it?"
Me: "*YES*."
Also they only gave me a third of the proper dose of bupropion this morning.
It shouldn't be my job to track that right now.

Hey all,
Does anyone know a good tattoo artist that does good work with UV ink and experience with UV ink? We would actually really like it if they were in seattle so we have reasons to just keep coming out there, but a good one anywhere would be appreciated.
Also please awoo if you think you know people who might know

short story
A band of new adventurers are excited to head out to their new job - they get to the bartender, who tells them:
"Y'know, I think it's big rats down there. They're making way too heavy noises for normal rats. Check it out for me, would ya?"
The adventurers head downstairs. Kobolds sitting around a table playing card games look up, and one excitedly invites them to play.
