Merry Shitscram, y'all

Guardian Twitter:
Merry Kissmas, Shen Wei and I hope someone remembered to give you sparkling cider instead of champagne!

"Zhu Yilong using the willpower of freaking god to keep his eyes at eye level while doing this scene." (I would say the willpower of a saint since, from what I've read, gods seem to have very little willpower) (also, I have a difficult time looking at Bai Yu's face in the photo so I can only imagine attempting this in person) (emphasis on attempting)

This screams "Greenroom. Ten minutes." to me (or bathroom--whatever, that's not the part I'm picky about).

Bai Yu selfies. God I want to take. him. apart. it is absolutely ridiculous that even that fourth photo from the first link can punch me in the pants feels.

Fierce Zhu Yilong, on the other hand, I would like to take me apart, please.

I have an email shorthand with [personal profile] kazoogrrl where if one of us (read: 90% of the time, it's not [personal profile] kazoogrrl) finds something extra RPF-y that causes Some Sort Of Emotion, we send it with  variations of "Toot Toot" in the subject line. I sent the inaugural email way back in, idk, May? something like that that, with the subject line "Rooty-Toot-Toot all aboard the RPF train to hell" and I figure I might as well start including some of those finds here /o\ so Rooty Toot Toot Motherfuckers. [personal profile] bonibaru , this tweet is one of my fave Toot Toots I ever sent her, thank you.

Hey so I tried to bullet list those tweets, but when I did that, it kicked both usernames up to the top, above the bulleted list, and wouldn't include them in the paragraph where I originally put them. Does this happen to other people?



Guess what's hanging next to my bed, now:


IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL. Wish the oranges came through a little more vibrantly, but I have curtains that hang all around my bed so the lighting in there is kind of shit. I tried to move them aside (which is why you can see a bit of my bed reflected, there) but obviously a flash wasn't an option so yeah, the pic colors aren't great but they match the print gorgeously. The orange mat has a sort of linen look and the frame is rounded with a texture that echoes the viney black brush strokes. If you've been looking at this print and waffling on whether to get the largest size, go for it (that's what this one is).

Speaking of looking at things, after nearly a year, I figured out how to read a computer screen with my progressive lenses. I only focus with my left eye (my dominant eye) and let the right one just come along for the ride. Discovered this by being trapped by a cat on the couch and needing to work on the laptop but had no place to put my glasses (glasses Do Not Get Placed On The Couch). Serendipity!

Speaking of using progressive lenses (well, getting old anyway), someone sent me an invitation to a FB Group, I drank at the Crossing in Lawrence Kansas in the 80s and I'm (bitterly) amused. Here's what the place looked like when I was in college. Here's what that same corner looks like, now. I'm not a sentimental person, but God Damn. I know which I prefer. And no, I did not join bc I allow myself to do two things on FB:   post occasional, inflammatory political screeds (which I rarely do anymore bc why) and interact with my buddies on our secret Middle Aged Ladies With Kpop Problems group (which I do frequently bc I am a middle aged lady with a Kpop problem).

Happy/Merry to everyone who observes this particular holiday in whatever form. I hope you have a lovey one, and if nothing else, HAPPY YULETIDE AND DSSS READING!

I ate at Yellow Sub right before they closed to tear it down. Because *sigh*. And I took my sandwich up to The Glass Onion to eat it there. Because *sigh*.

I don't remember Kinko's being there though. It was a CD store but I'm completely forgetting the name.

The dayglow buses I don't miss.

Thank you for this bounty - that picture of Zhu Yilong with a lollipop looking so fondly at Bai Yu is hitting me HARD. And Merry Happy to you too! <3

I love that "willpower of freaking god" moment, HA, that is such a great point. I love Shen Wei gripping his knees, too, like he has to constrain himself SOMEHOW.

BWEE that is a most excellent line, I think you should steal it from yourself to use in fanfic. XD And yes, yes, same. <3

Oh wow, thinking about Zhu Yilong being distracted by Bai Yu's sprawling, and thighs, and the way he sits like he's offering himself up is... GOOD TIMES.

I bookmarked a lot of posts over the holidays without actually reading, and now I'm catching up! Had to comment on this:

This screams "Greenroom. Ten minutes." to me (or bathroom--whatever, that's not the part I'm picky about).

Because OMG, yes. (And I want that fic.)

Bai Yu selfies. God I want to take. him. apart. [...] Fierce Zhu Yilong, on the other hand, I would like to take me apart, please.

I would like fierce Zhu Yilong to take Bai Yu apart, please! *g* But someone definitely needs to take Bai Yu apart. Yes.
