GIP
(Screengrab by formanymiles, who I have been inundating with shitty worldbuilding nonsense about something which is not the project I was originally supposed to be working on at all, regardless of whether or not she wants me to. I made the icon in PAINT because I apparently give no fucks any more.)
Speaking of giving no fucks, the agency continue to be marginally less helpful than the Microsoft Office Paperclip and a good deal less omnipresent ("We'll keep you posted" NO YOU FUCKS IF I HAVE TO CHASE YOU FOR EVERY PIECE OF INFORMATION THAT IS NOT "KEEPING ME POSTED"); NB: I have the job it is just a question of getting a bastard start date, a bastard start place, and a bastard jot of information. Although having seen who I'm working for (I'm not allowed to tell you but they're a publishing company who haven't had wonderful press), I am not surprised. Hey ho. Must remember to take none of this money-making bullshit seriously.
Lindsay showed me this, which is the most accurate translation of LISTENING TO MY MOTHER (she has used most of those phrases, especially "the universe will provide" and "standing in my power" or whatever. THIS IS WHY I DON'T TALK TO HER.
Have rather lost momentum with AC due to not being able to remotely interest anyone in it and finding this whole "research" business deeply boring. Will persevere with the research at least, and maybe also the plotting once I've managed to nail down what events I can and can't have (fuck you cocaine for being legal in the 1920s) and then I need to work out how Maddy finds her information and EVERYTHING HAS TO TAKE PLACE IN SELF-CONTAINED ISSUES/CHAPTERS OF 4,000 WORDS why do I do this to myself. WHY.
I also made a dress:
More or less so that you have something to comment on since I know if anyone's reading they're going to ignore the rest.
Poetry
Other People's Memories: 2
IDK if I can be bothered posting poetry any more, since ... no one's really commented, here or on the blog, on the last few I've posted. I'm assuming it's either because I SUCK or because everyone has basically left LJ; if the latter there's not really much point in me sticking things up here, and if the former there's no point in wasting time on the 2011 collection.
