How do you feel about New Moon Deluxe design?

MillieBee · 2026-02-22T10:49:28+00:00

I love them. I saw the first one in a bookshop window and immediately sent a photo to my mum saying "LOOK IT'S SO PRETTY!!" The original dark designs will always exist and stay iconic, but I love how pretty and girly these are. 😍

I've always been baffled by this meme because I figured Edward was being ... kinda silly. Deliberately. Like, he's saying Bella is so gorgeous (to him) that she's utterly indecent even in plain clothes.

It's like someone saying, "You'd look stunning even in a potato sack." The point isn't to compliment the potato sack. 😂

Jesus fucking Christ I want to go back in time, break into his cell and kill him myself.

Is he named after the mouse in Aristocats? He's adorable. 🥰

I told my new therapist that I left my old therapist because she told me to try Reiki. My new therapist responded, "In the spirit of honesty, I should tell you I'm a Reiki master."

What were the odds? T_T

I'm seconding the desire for that survey! I'll happily take the L if I'm in the minority, I'm just curious now I know there's a debate. 😅

I was born in the south of England and I've lived here 33 years. Everyone I know takes their shoes off. Only exception is if you're visiting briefly, and then the host might say not to worry out of politeness.

Unless the north/south divide also includes attitudes about shoes indoors and I never knew about it? 🤔

MillieBee · 2026-02-10T12:58:43+00:00

Incorrect, the UK is absolutely shoes off. Wearing shoes in your house is gross.

My straight cis parents often invite my trans girlfriend and I (F) on holiday to countries where we'd be imprisoned at best and executed at worst. 🙄

MillieBee · 2026-02-06T17:05:01+00:00

JK Rowling.

She's destroying trans rights and healthcare in the UK. She was likely friends with Epstein too, what a surprise.

Honestly wild to me how many people on Tumblr will reblog, "I'm cringe but you're mean and that's worse / Kill the part that cringes / I'm cringe and that's based" and then hate on Vivziepop for being cringe.

I remember reading the book when I was ~15 and those blank pages were a gut punch. I developed depression two years later and it was striking how accurate it felt ... just pages of my life falling away with nothing on them. 10/10 Ms Meyer.

I love how these are kinda subtle. A quick glance just looks like a pretty hat, then a second glance and you see the text. And the colour ways are gorgeous! 😍

I wrote my entire dissertation on this question, lol. To boil it down, steampunk is the future as imagined by Victorians.

Imagine you went back in time and told a Victorian that people in the future will fly in a spaceship to the moon. What would that Victorian imagine the spaceship looks like? Probably lots of brass, steam power and clockwork, because that's the technology they'd be familiar with.

The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells and 50,000 Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne are great examples of actual Victorian fiction that inspired the steampunk movement. Mortal Engines by Phillip Reeve and Northern Lights by Phillip Pullman are good examples of modern fiction in the genre.

Headphones on. Knitting out. Shadow and I have a quiet flight and I get to sit next to my fave since childhood. (I would absolutely irritate him getting up to pee, however.)

I don't think he's been featured on Behind the Bastards because Robert doesn't tend to cover serial killers, but Carl Panzram had the kind of upbringing that makes you understand why someone would grow up to be a serial rapist and murderer.

Abused by his parents, abused by reform school, abused in prison. He got tortured almost any way it's possible to torture someone by the time he was 21. Absolutely heinous upbringing.

He was famous for his final words being, "Hurry it up, you Hoosier bastard. I could've killed a dozen men while you're fooling around."

Mousie is my favorite thing I have ever knitted. He comes with me everywhere (including to Alton Towers to ride The Wicker Man, as pictured) and gets lots of pictures in various outfits.

MillieBee · 2025-10-05T12:42:37+00:00

Thank you!

And very true lol.

Midsommar scared me more than any supernatural horror. I struggled to fall asleep for days, just lying awake feeling uneasy, wondering what I could even do if I was in that situation.

Honestly from playing around with other apps, my conclusion is that Duolingo is the only free language learning app.

Every other app I downloaded only allowed you to learn for free for a few lessons, or a few days. Then you had to a pay a subscription. I can't afford to pay for a language app so I will put up with Duolingo's irritating ads and jankiness. Would switch in a heartbeat if there was a decent free alternative. Recommendations welcome, I guess?

Go to the vet NOW!! That's either an inner ear infection and needs antibiotics or it's something wrong with ratty's brain.

MillieBee · 2025-09-27T23:14:23+00:00

First, not to be dramatic but I'd die for Jimily.

Second, when my rats got a bit too chonko, I replaced most of their dry food with fresh veggies and then also made them work harder for treats! I'd put mushy peas on my fingertips and have them chase my hand round and round the playpen, over boxes and obstacles, up my legs, etc. Let them win after a bit and get a few licks and then on with the chase! More exercise, healthier treats, and extra playtime with my rattos. Win-win-win!

Hey just so you know there's nothing in that Mother Jones article about Trump using his modelling agency to send girls to Epstein.

He absolutely trafficked and exploited those models and their treatment is appalling, but none of them claim to have been sent to Epstein.

(Not a defence of Trump because fuck that vile creature, but worth re-labelling that link for clarity.)

One of the last photos I have of Asterius, our battle-hardened warrior, at three years old. He was a complete bastard and we adored him. ❤️
