musicians of fedi what is the hottest time signature and why is it 7/8
y'all i just wrote a 5,000 word fanfic chapter that happens, mm, maybe a third or halfway into the full story i have planned, and they don't even smooch *for the very first time ever until the *very end*
lfg slowburrrrn
now to uh... write my way up to this scene lmao
semi-regular unscheduled reminder that i like this little corner of the internet quite a lot. y'all are neat human beings doing good things in the world. it's an honor to share cyberspace with you.
keep up the good fight, whichever lane you're in.
my recent coping mechanism for *gestures at everything* (aside ofc from Doing My Bit) has been planning a fanfic, my first attempt at writing one since literal middle school
i find myself compelled to make a fucking PLAYLIST about it; nearly EVERY SONG ON IT is one middle school me LOVED
i feel CRINGE and RIDICULOUS and ALIVE
this damn series is trying so hard to shove christine chapel and spock together. stahp it. these experts in chemistry have absolutely none togetherrrr
ANGINE DE POITRINE VOL II JUST DROPPED LFGGGGGGGGGG
the two things i am a huge fan of right now, namely #StarTrek and #AngineDePoitrine, have officially crossed over in someone else's brain
(as in, I found this in the wild, which brought me Great Delight; photo credit to tumblr user samantha-in-samsara)
@mikeseye@mspsocial.net today i realized that i definitely thought king crimson and king gizzard and the lizard wizard were the same
oops
@mikeseye@mspsocial.net how dare somebody AI-ify the sort of band AI could never come up with 😭
anyway my entry point was being a huge nerd for rhythm fuckery
welcome aboard enjoy your stay
@mikeseye@mspsocial.net wait what's the angine de poitrine cat meme??
hey nerds /affectionate what ai-free fork of calibre are y'all using these days?
when calibre first announced ai implementation i remember there were a flurry of forks in protest, but the bar for entry was too high for my limited tech knowledge, so i've just been rawdogging my ebook management
this is not terribly compatible with recently deepdiving into the literal decades of kirk/spock fanfic sooooo
hit me w your non-AI FOSS ebook-managing software recs please and thank you
happy mother's day to me. so grateful to have birthed this beautiful baby girl who yells at me if i'm not awake when she thinks i should be, then sleeps most of the day anyway
it truly baffles me that cats have this reputation for being aloof and standoffish. i literally have not known solitude since i brought my little creature home from the shelter. she is obsessed with me and has been from day one. god forbid i even shower with the door closed, lest she wail in anguish that i have abandoned her.
perhaps i adopted a uniquely sociable cat, but it seems that cats might actually the clingiest bitches alive
so over on tumblr dot com i made and posted a light shitpost in which i set the "spock walking onto the enterprise" scene from The Motion Picture over "your hands are cold" from 2005 Pride & Prejudice (the music for the scene when Darcy is dreamily walking across the misty field)
tumblr flagged it as Potentially Mature Content and i am rollingggggggg
milord, the good admiral kirk did gaze upon spock with a look so tender, set to strings so swelling, it must be hid from the children
