Stay in all morning and do productive homework things? Sunny day!
Go out to run some errands and grab a snack? Pouring rain!
Get home again to dry off? Rain clears up!
I have to wait outside the station for a VLine coach in about two hours. I’m now taking bets on whether or not it will rain again.
“I don’t see how that’s a party.”
WATCH the making of for this showdown right HERE!
It’s so heavy and so warm and so thick, omg you’re going to LOVE it
aaaagh I fall a little bit in love with every scarf I make, seriously, it’s so silly, but it makes me happy because I know you’re going to adore it just as much as I do, and it’s going to make you happy and keep you warm during those brutal Aussie winters :)

Riot Act is my second poetry compilation and the first produced under my chosen name. As the summary might clue you into, this work is ‘mature’: it covers sex, drugs, violence, illness, and death through a range of different poetic works.
The money I earn from book sales will go to paying for my expenses while abroad in Scotland: you know, food, pain medication, that sort of thing. While I know my study abroad trip is not in any way as important as keeping people fed or paying for life-saving surgeries (such as Gender Confirmation Surgeries), I’d really appreciate it because money is going to be tight. Really tight.
Anyway, full disclosure:
Sales of the paperback earn me $3.89 per unit in revenue.
Sales of the e-reader version earn me $2.48 per unit in revenue.
In order to be even let in to the country, I need to prove that I have $4,743.30 available for my living expenses while there. I currently have about $1,100 toward that goal (which might drop, depending on how expensive my rat’s upcoming surgery is and if she requires multiple surgeries).
My plane tickets to and from Scotland, on a conservative estimate, are looking to be about $1,500 round trip.
So, that means, in proof of living expenses + plane tickets, the two up-front costs are going to be about $6,243. Again, as I said, I have about $1,100 toward that as of right now, so that means I need to rally up $5,143 in about three months.
Obviously I don’t expect book sales to cover all of that, nor do I expect you to (and I strongly ask you NOT TO) donate toward my trip. Because that’s both selfish and silly. What I’m trying to explain is that every tiny little bit - $3 here or there in book sales - will help tremendously in making this trip actually meaningful and enjoyable.
If you don’t want my book (and hell, who wouldn’t want my book?), I also provide lots of other things for $$: I knit [scarves, iPod cozies, hats, leg warmers, arm warmers, etc], copy edit, write, sew, petsit, and provide mentoring/tutoring, either in person or online. I live in the Chicagoland area and am happy to travel anywhere along the CTA to do whatever you need. I have a PayPal account and accept cash (in person) or checks. Just drop me an ask here or email me at cameron.sidhe@gmail.com if you’d like to request some service or just know about my trip, my book, etc.
Thanks much for reading this. If you can’t or don’t want to buy my book or services, please signal boost.
this screams fake but nice try?
You can see the red squiggle under Ashleig and under Tom:It
Also the little blinky cursor typy thing in the upper left
also the last question just stops in the middle?
this isn’t even a mediocre shop. This is just… awful.
… awww. I was all excited too.
Disappointing. He would have been so charming about it all.

This connection has probably already been made by everybody and their dog, but whatever…
obviously Loki needs to go on a quest for his honour or something
OH MY GOD
THIS IS THE BEST THING.
THE. BEST. THING.
Zuko and Loki would have an angst party.
Zuko will take Loki on a life-changing field trip.

I actually have exams this semester, it’s weird. I mean, they’re not full-on, formal examinations, they’re happening during the regular tutorial session. But they’re worth 30% of the grade for each of the subjects, so I’ve been putting in a fair bit of revision.
In high school, I used to have a ridiculous number of exams. In the year of university in my hometown, we had three hour programming exams and wrote code out on paper. But down here in Melbourne? Nooooooope! None for the last two and half years. Actually having to remember lecture content well enough that I don’t need to check the readings is weird and novel now.
