Pinned
As more people join Bluesky, pinning this reminder that I'm taking this opportunity to rebrand as Person Who Isn't Scared of Other Humans. I'm probably going to just start talking to you like we're friends, because I've probably wanted to be for awhile, but I will always shut up on request!
How many people watched Sherlock 25 years ago and still worry they're alcoholics when they can't plug their phone charger in the first time. Even if they haven't been drinking.

Every year I share my cut-your-own-tree fic the weekend we get our Christmas tree. And this year I really need people to be nice to me about it because SOMEONE STOLE OUR TREE TODAY (probably on accident) 😭😭😭

U-Pick, 2.8k, rated M, no trees are stolen in this fic

God am I glad (thankful, you might say) that I spend holidays with family who are sometimes annoying/cringe/the source of much trauma... but who don't have Extremely Bad Opinions.

The worst date I ever went on was with a guy who asked me what my favorite Bob Dylan album was (🙄). I managed to dredge up the name of an album, but right after I told him, he *turned around in his seat and joined the conversation of the group behind us.* He talked to them for TEN MINUTES

Just had an even more intense moment of nostalgia - the night before Thanksgiving here in the States, 2022, drinking wine and making pies while gossiping with a Kiwi pirate about the s2 filming happening in Auckland. TAKE ME BACK🥲
Was hit with a wave of nostalgia today for my OFMD Reddit days 🥲 I had such a good time over there, but since it's not set up to really forge 1:1 connections I don't know who was/is over there but is now here. So hi to all the 2022 OFMD Redditors out there.

I just scrolled back through my own recent Bluesky posts and was dismayed to realize they're all about me?? This is not what this account is supposed to be for! I'm still here for OFMD! I just don't have anything new to share or new insights! But here's an old gif as proof of my intent!

What if - hear me out - someone just gave me a shit ton of money and I never had to work again? Eh? Maybe?

no one is better at their jobs than the social media managers for local government departments. those people should be running the country.

This isn't fully developed but something about if you're in frequent contact with someone your emotional breakdown cycles sync up in a complimentary way so you can be strong for each other. But if you're only catching up occasionally you maybe are on the SAME cycle and just can only spiral together.

The extreme conversational whiplash between "how is your prediabetes, oh brother mine?" and "ha ha how about those pics of Trump performing oral sex [on Bill Clinton??] in the hands of the Russian government, right??" is absolute perfection, couldn't have scripted it better 10/10 no notes

Approximately every six months I learn that my shitty buffoon of a college ex is in some way connected to a new genuinely cool, niche-famous person, and every time it just... boggles the mind.

I keep seeing Guardian headlines talking about "Snap" and I need to know if it's an AI thing or if the Brits don't know it's an acronym? Or know but don't care? Can someone across the pond weigh in on this important question?

Imagine what I could accomplish if I wasn't locked in a battle with my brain to make one (1) call or respond to one (1) email for like 4.5 hours every single day.
