Helga is a flat-pack cat š :) she has one volume which is turned up to 100 at all times
if weāre all going to be social-distancing/quarantining for a bit please reply to this with a picture of your pet!
we could all use a little softness right now
hereās my baby boy after our run in the park last week ā he always refuses to drink the water i bring him but wants to sip out of every puddle
So I was watching last nightās episode and I am a dumbass.
Like when she said, āWhat do you want?ā
I heard:
Doctor: What do you want?
Master: Neil. Neil, or they all die.
And I was like, āwho tf is Neil???ā
And then she gOT ON HER FUCKING KNEES AND I REALISED-
Oh.
I am a dumbass.
Then this morning I found out I wasnāt the only one who heard that so yay weāre all dumbasses together š.
(It also means Iāve grown up though ācause like two years ago my mind wouldāve immediately gone the dirty route but now... the Master trying to find some rando named Neil is surprisingly??? Wholesome???)
Anyway I want to tell bi girls, especially with how disgustingly biphobic twitter has been, that if you have a preference for men, donāt feel obligated to try and make yourself seem more āgay.ā Youāre enough. Donāt suppress your attraction for temporary validation. Your love for all genders is real & valid. you shouldnāt feel restricted or that you have to make fifty wlw moodboards and strip your pages of any mention of men to prove your worth to biphobes. Men are hot. Talk about how much you find them attractive without shame.
*URGENT: PLEASE READ/SIGNAL BOOST*
Saturday, March 7th:Ā Hello everyone, Iām Gemma and sincerely apologize to be asking for help again but, things have unfortunately gone from bad to worse for me and I desperately need help.
As most of you are already aware, I have been struggling financially for quite some time due to my welfare benefits being revoked, under the UKās controversial changes to how benefits are assessed and assigned. And due to my mental health and some unfortunate DWP mess-ups, my benefits have been on and off sanctions for over a year now.
And despite receiving the results of my medical assessment earlier last month, which stated that I have a limited capability for work due to my persistent low mood and extreme fatigue, my benefits have been suspended without warning or reason. I am currently trying to appeal the decision and make a new claim. However, that will take a few weeks to be processed, and I am also trying to apply for PIP/ESA, which is another long and complicated process.
I currently donāt have any finances to pay anything, and Iām quite literally on the verge of a breakdown, as I am drowning in red notices and final demands, as I used to only get Ā£128 per month and that wasnāt enough to cover my rent and bills leaving me in heavy debt. And I recently had to have my broken electricity meter replaced, I will receive the bill for this sometime next week. *evidence can be provided*
And at the moment, I desperately need help to keep my utilities on, pay my electricity bill and my rent and I also have groceries to get and it would really mean a lot to me if I could get some help. My goal is £600 to help me get by until my benefits are reinstated, hopefully in April.
If anyone could spare any amount to help me, even if itās just Ā£1/$1/ā¬1, it would literally save my life, and sharing definitely helps just as much as donations. Nobody is obligated in any way to donate if they canāt or donāt want to, I know weāre all struggling.
Thank you for your help š
1. If we are able to worry about it, it means we are alive right now.
2. Donāt try to envision whatās beyond it, unless youāre religious, because itās physically impossible. Our brains donāt have the capability to imagine it.
3. I try to distract myself with the political world, as itās much faster-paced and very grounding in how it changes so quickly.
4. Yes, I am terrified, and wondering how everyone else is happy, but then I have to remember that many of us havenāt truly lived yet. Many of us have been resigned to quiet, boring lives by overprotective parents.
5. It mostly hits you the strongest when youāre the least satisfied with your life; when thereās so much you want to achieve but you donāt want the time to pass in order for you to be able to.
6. Life is an A-Z, NOT an A-B.
7. Itās time we went searching for lifeās peripheral, rather than just the tunnel.
8. Obligatory the-school-system-has-failed-us: life is prepared until you turn 18 and most children see that as being forever away. I reached 16 and then felt wrong going any further. Education for children is often centred around ādonāt do this or you will DIE and itāll be HORRIBLEā which is fine to prevent a toddler from doing something, but completely forgets that one day that toddler is going to grow up.
9. Today is in its own bubble, and Iām going to try and believe Iām okay.
They think I have late stage Addisonās disease.
I have more testing I have to do.
Iām without words. This is terrifying.
I canāt even let myself grieve or relax because I donāt even have enough money to be diagnosed properly OR treated.
So please, please. If you have anything to spare.. I need it now more than ever ..
I appreciate any and ALL HELP!!!
If youād like to immediately help me my PayPal is

I donāt want to die because I canāt afford to get treatment. Iāve come this far.. Iām desperate. I need my community now more than ever. Please donāt let me be forgotten
Itās happening āØ
So far Iāve almost finished the base dress which I will then sew the gold sections onto.
Before I do that, I am going to take the dress in at the waist a little more (as it is slightly too big (my mum thinks itās fine but I hate things hanging loosely around my waist)).
Iāll also make the cape before I do the gold (so I donāt have to change thread š ).
For fabric I ended up going with cheap-and-cheerful economy satin. Itās a little shinier than I wanted, but crepe-back satin is Ā£7.99 a metre (x115cm) and this stuff is Ā£2.99 a metre (x150cm), which I think explains it.
I could have also turned the fabric inside out to use the dulled side, but I wanted the shine for the gold and didnāt really want shiny stuff on the inside next to my skinš.
For the back I only opened it up to the braline, because I donāt hate myself that much and quite frankly I canāt go braless.
Iāve also been taking some footage of the making of this dress, so that I can make myself a little āthe making ofā video š„°.
Iāve decided that one of my next sewing projects will be this dress.
Whether this is a good idea or not, only time will tell.
However, I was wondering if any other cosplayers or sewers had any advice as to what fabric would be best.
Right now Iām thinking crepe-back satin as it has a gentle shine, a nice texturised finish and would look right for the gold sections.
However, it also has a one-way stretch to it, which I think could be helpful in a dress like this, but having worked with it a couple of times now I know that itās a little bit volatile š°.
Thereās also the matter of needing a lining in order to get the sweetheart neckline.
I also plan on only making the back open down to the braline as I want to have as much comfort in this as possible.
Anyway this might sound just like ramblings and thoughts but I was wondering if anyone had any fabric ideas or thoughts āØ
(I'm probably the last person to notice this)
Iām probably reading too far into this... But look at that scene! Not only was it so domestic that Victor was willing to share his drink with Yuuri (which would result in an indirect kiss!!!!), but Victor seemingly forgot for a moment that the competition was coming up!
He was so engrossed in their sightseeing that he momentarily forgot why they were there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Victorās been competing for literally years and he still forgot. I know Victor is forgetful but this just shows how much he was enjoying their trip out together.Ā
