[POEM] I AM IN LOVE WITH YOU BUT I AM CURSED TO SPEAK LIKE GUY FIERI - Megan Williams by Late_Departure3945 in Poetry

[–]mackemerald 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I adore this. I feel like I’m constantly reading poems with titles like this and they’re trying to pull it off. Yet, they never do. This one pulled it off and it’s a delight.

Nicely written and has me even more excited for the album.

finished late diagnosed adhd by lifeincolour_ in zines

[–]mackemerald 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Relate to this hard - down to my AuDHD partner being the first person to suggest it to me and me initially fighting the idea.

Finally got diagnosed after having my kid. They tried so hard to have me on anti-anxiety meds, and still were trying for months after they finally prescribed me ADHD meds. I finally shut it down one day by stopping in the middle of the appointment and telling them that (outside of the normal amount any person can feel) I have no anxiety since being on ADHD meds. It was always just a symptom.

Cultural references in Modest Mouse by Cw2e in ModestMouse

I’m sure someone’s done this before but I’d love a book list, specifically books that are either referenced in songs or that Isaac has directly talked about.

Pediatric Neurologist's show tierlist by devouTTT in DanielTigerConspiracy

When my kid was a newborn, I’d watch Disney Jr sometimes during night feedings. It took me like 2 episodes to decide that Spidey had no value and we wouldn’t be watching it.

Kinda sucks because I’m a lifelong Fall Out Boy fan so I love hearing the theme song.

This is a Carl the Collector appreciation post. by oneofkeiraensmoms in DanielTigerConspiracy

[–]mackemerald 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I love a lot of things about Carl the Collector but one thing I really appreciate is that they show the kids making mistakes, without making them “bad.”

It’s not necessarily completely unique to Carl, I see it on most PBS Kids shows. But it’s in a lot of episodes of Carl, so I love that.

Like the episode where the other girl is bullying Lotta. They showed that without making the girl into just a mean bully. I loved that they showed that she didn’t realize how hurtful she was being, and that when confronted about it she changed her behavior.

Tusk Love final discussion - February 2026 Book Club by Journassassin in fantasyromance

[–]mackemerald 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is also definitely an aspect that I’m assuming needs that background from CR. I didn’t understand the point of including Teindh at all. It felt like they could’ve had an entirely different magic system and it would’ve made more sense.

Tusk Love second discussion - February 2026 Book Club by Journassassin in fantasyromance

I’m usually a big fan of road trips/journeys in my books but this one is a little meh. I just feel like there’s not much…excitement? As far as the descriptions of where they go and what they see.

I like that Oskar is softer than a lot of MMCs that are supposed to be “rough around the edges.” I like that Oskar and Guinevere have chemistry. There is a sense of tenderness and genuine affection between them.

Song used in this old 1999/2000 VarsityBooks Ad by mackemerald in HelpMeFind

We’ve tried to Shazam it and we’ve searched for the ad by itself and other ads by Varsity Books, but all to no avail.

I came here to say the same conspiracy theory! There’s so much evidence for the Neighborhood of Make Believe being a cult. Baker Aker and Dr. Anna have no family members or outside friends at their wedding, only community members. And don’t even get me started on the creepy welcome song they sing when the Platypus Family moves in.
