@comicspasta maybe trying new recipes would keep you from getting bored? tbf cooking goes slower when you have to keep checking the recipe, but for me a new process (plus the anticipation/uncertainty of the result) holds my attention more

the coziest bed for winter naps

[marla 🦇 @marla_caye]

i don't use twitter much these days but i need to speak on something important to me. it might be controversial, but the best part of winter is the way birds become perfectly spherical in the cold. i mean they are just so incredibly round. comically fluffed up.

@elIenripley the timeless appeal of a character who would wear glow in the dark wolf shirts and ankle-length denim skirts if given the opportunity

@comicspasta when i was a kid i got really good at guessing what was in them, so i felt like i was winning a game. and i like when people give them to me!! but i don't buy them for myself bc the potential disappointment outweighs the satisfaction of getting the "right" one

[marla 🦇 @marla_caye]

@comicspasta i know that there's a lot of pressure to cater to an audience, whether you're trying to sell your art or just expand your following, but i'm glad that you don't sacrifice the things that make art-making fulfilling for you!! ultimately, your art should bring you joy 💕

@notamandab i've found https://t.co/HKDkjZW2nB to be really helpful for interview prep!! but to me the most important thing is remembering that they don't want you to fail. they want to hire someone, and they're hoping you'll be a good choice!!

happy birthday to the album that made me insufferable in undergrad

i was going to post a line from "working for the knife" for an ~*aesthetic*~ caption but (a) you really just gotta listen to the whole song and (b) i have to state my unbridled gratitude for getting to see mitski perform ❤️‍🔥
