Something Unpredictable

Quarantine Media Consumption

Hello, my dears! This is going to be a short entry, but I'd love to start conversations with anyone who's seen the shows I've watched in quarantine!   I don't know if they have enough interest to justify an entire thread in Other Fandoms, so I thought I'd just put them here and await your replies! To preface: I didn't watch much anime growing up (mostly just Sailor Moon since it was on Cartoon Network—and I 100% acknowledge that Amara and Michelle greatly influenced my sexual awakening), so

Some 2021 Resolutions

HAPPY 2021! 🎉 Usually, New Year's Resolutions are quite triggering for me because of the association with dieting and weight loss. But since March 2020 I've been in eating disorder recovery, and it's important that I don't focus on the dieting anymore. Christmas and New Year were still very difficult and triggered some panic attacks, but I was very determined to not focus 2021 around my usual fears. So, I decided to think of things that would really make me happy.    1. Finis

i made cocktails for my characters because that's now a thing i do

so this can all be blamed totally on @Aphoride and @pirate grumpy cat because i was asked to pick a cocktail for just one of my characters and now here we are with six which is all purley self indulgent but has also kept me entertained all afternoon. for anyone who doesn't know, i work in a cocktail bar, i also write characters who all like to excessivley drink because art imitates life, so here i've written out what their cocktail of choice would be along with recipes incase anyone would actual

earthquakes in croatia

i posted this on twitter already but i know some of you don't follow me there and my account is set to private so... two days ago, two earthquakes hit central croatia resulting in extensive damage in the towns of petrinja, sisak, glina and the villages around them. yesterday, an even bigger earthquake (6.3 magnitude) hit the same area. the entire city centre of petrinja is ruined with numerous collapsed buildings, it's the same in sisak and glina (in which 90% houses got destroyed), with h

why we can't eradicate some infectious diseases

this is possibly boring to everyone but me, but a few people said that they were vaguely interested in this sort of post, so uhhh let's go for it? humans have successfully eradicated one infectious disease that infected humans: smallpox.1 we're also working toward eradication of several more (most notably polio). smallpox does continue to exist in labs (which is its own source of controversy), but the who is confident that it no longer exists in nature - basically, the only way future infec

the drunken shenanigans challenge: results someone wanna tell me why i ran a challenge with the deadline smack in the middle of my first semester of law school? because i don't know what terrible judgment fuelled that either. (i mean, actually, i might've been drunk. it'd be fitting.) anyways, it took me entirely too long to get around to judging, but i'm finally here with the results! i had six wonderful entries to choose from, and i really had a rough time picking the top three.

Thank you, FFT!!!

My dearest FFT-ers, it's Christmas Eve, 2020 is finally reaching its end, and I know it's been a difficult year for many of us in many ways. I consider myself extremely lucky for not having impacted by the pandemic in any major way, but I've still been struggling a lot with the isolation and loneliness these past months. And this is why the friendliness and support of our community has been doubly precious for me this year! So all I want to say to all of you is a huge, heartfelt
