Tuesday

So the big news is Zhu Yilong shaved his head. I vastly prefer the floppy hair, but imo it's better than that spiky ...thing... he had for The Rebel (I have yet to like that cut on anyone and at least buzzcuts are fun to pet).

Fanart: This kiss (short) comic! Badass Shen Wei. Cuddles! Ice cream surprise. Happy family. Felted weasel/hamster in tableau.

I really really wanted/needed a Guardian fic last night so I was looking through short stuff in my Marked for Later and A Kiss to Gain Something knocked me down with how pretty the language is. Only 600-some words and really lovely.

Spirits are low, friends. Things have been getting harder for a couple weeks. Healing is linear, things process in cycles, etc. etc, but jesus I'm so tired of being on the verge of tears all the time.

I'm gonna pop out to the thrift store today, see if they have any Pyrex pie plates. One of mine cracked when I took it out of the oven last time I roasted peppers. Apparently glass-top ranges aren't safe for hot Pyrex and I should've put a towel down to prevent cold shock. Gold star for me, not having a meltdown over the reminder how much I miss my beautiful gas stove.

I'm not sure if I'll feel better or worse from having gone out. Hardly anyone's gonna be masked and maybe I don't feel in as much imminent danger now that I'm vaxxed, but I hate being reminded of how shitty and selfish people are.
