  1. Same to you. I hope the migraine is abating.
  2. "Freedom is Oppression." Where have I heard that before? Ahhh, yes. I remember: A little book I had to read in high school, written by George Orwell.
  3. Michael was invited to have dinner with us tonight. We had a smørrebrød of bacon, eggs, tomatoes, rye toast, and some pickled veggies. Currently, Max and Michael are snuggled on the sofa, watching Howl's Moving Castle.
  4. @spike382 @clochette I'm afraid the Drewth Empire has co-opted the Dominican government.
  5. My kids are chill. Grant and Haley are like little Energizer bunnies, always running everywhere.
  6. Nope, Grant is one year older.
  7. My poor sister-in-law has double the trouble with Grant and Haley.
  8. There are many different reasons for storytelling. Alice Oseman herself is a part of the queer community, and while Heartstopper may not be strictly "Own Voices", it's her attempt to show queer characters truthfully, rather than through an idealized, fantastic lens. I've read and watched the story faithfully since I first learned of it, and I believe that Heartstopper is one of the most honest portrayals currently available. Several actors in the Netflix adaptation (including the two protagonists) are also queer, though they may not have known it when filming began. Working on Heartstopper might just have helped them to discover their own identities, as it has for numerous fans.
  9. Give the kid a hydraulic press, and he could make enough diamonds to build a necklace for Mama Espinosa. Merry Christmas, Tink!
  10. And a cold shower.
  11. Hey, Dugh and Mum. Wishing you a calm, relaxing Christmas free of migraines.
  12. Speaking as an author, I'm content with how stories are published on the website. But I haven't been an author for very long compared to some others, so perhaps I have yet to appreciate how difficult posting can be. As a reader: the sheer number of tags used by the search feature can sometimes feel overwhelming. I'd like to see a more simplified version of that system.
  13. Hey, Dugh and Mum.
  14. Yup! All of the prezzies have been wrapped, and I've made all of the cookies that I wanted. Max also has a present ready for his boyfriend, which we dropped off at Michael's house earlier today. It'll be waiting under his family's tree for unwrapping on Christmas Day.
  15. An idiot, but not abusive. So, should I watch it, or no?
  16. @spike382 @Drew Espinosa On Pinterest, I discovered a poster for a Thai BL story called "I Told Sunset About You". Thoughts?
  17. There's a tall, blond elf named Morgan who wants my attention. Elves like to receive as well as give, so I'll just leave this pearl of wisdom before I log off: Elf care is self care.
  18. @bignick Hey, Nicky! How's it going?
  19. Hey, Boom Boom. How are things faring in the Imperial Household?
