We shall miss you ( Read more... )

I just started crying at my Twitter feed. You know why? Because suddenly, it's flooded with farewell videos and addresses. From John Kerry to his Foggy Bottom employees (I'm pretty sure some of them were close to crying themselves), from the White House press team, from John B. Emerson (the US ambassador to Germany, who will have to leave Berlin ( Read more... )

I'd wanted to write about Rogue One because that's what I finally saw today with Mom. Because it really is the most important movie of the year, for so many reasons ( Read more... )

Okay, so it's been a week. A horrible week full of gleeful racists and misogynysts celebrating that "they" won, by harrassing women, PoC, LGBTQ+ people and full of that smiling lizard person who's set to be the next president of the USA and full of frightened friends and family (Mom actually cried on the morning after the election :( ) and people ( Read more... )

I can't, though. Because all I can think about is how loud I will scream next time a journalist or politician tells me that I need to take the "worries" of "dissatisfied voters" "seriously". Because these days, "dissatisfied voters" is synonym to "racist, misogynist, bigotted assholes", i.e. Brexiters, Trump voters, AfD followers, fans and voters ( Read more... )

Sign-ups for sga_secretsanta, I mean. Right now, it's pretty heavy on the slash (as usual) and I'd be happy if some more gen/het/femmeslash peeps would sign up or I'm foreseeing lots of frustrated swearing during writing this year...

I know I said I'll be off the internet for two weeks but my uncle arrive here and graciously let me into his mobile wi fi. The reason why we're still here instead of being at the other uncle's house is the reason why I will never complain about a boring life, ever again: Dad's in the hospital.

( Here be accounts of severe health issues of my Dad. Proceed with care. )

And it'y my upstairs neighbor (I did say I'd write a bit about him this week). I live on the fifth floor of a six floor house in a studio apartment next to my parents' apartment, and this guy lives in the studio apartment above mine. And I just fucking hate him.

( Uuuuuuugh, I HATE that guy. )

And it is huge. I'm not going to say that someone grossly miscalculated the space in our living room, but seriously, someone grossly miscalculated the space in our living room. Don't believe me? Have a look:

Yay, it's gardening talk time again \o/ (in case anyone's been wondering: yes, there are other things going on in my life than gardening and being annoyed by Tumblr, and we'll come to that later. Maybe. At some point. If I feel like it.). Not much has been happening except plants growing and/or being destroyed by pigeons but there are a few notable ( Read more... )
