Welcome, hi, take a seat. ☕️ Coffee? Tea? Something stronger? Anyway… I'm Hippo. I write things and occasionally make edits and a smattering of other things. My works and content skew more mature so you must be 18+ to interact here.

Fandoms/Ships you can expect: Schitt’s Creek: David/Patrick, Stevie/Ruth, Twylexis, David & Stevie (platonic soulmates ftw), the occasional OC, very occasional Hawk/Tim (Fellow Travelers)

Looking for 911? It's moved!

For the record this (or any other) similarly named Twitter user is *not* me (i do not exist on that cesspool of a platform)

What's up Wednesday

tagged for this fun new tag game by @filet-o-feelings! it's a lil late but it's still Wednesday here for another hour or so.

If I'm being incredibly honest, I've been waffling between giving the Socially Acceptable Answer or the Real Answer. So, maybe a mix of both?
Lately has been a Struggle in all domains. Marriage, parenting, work, writing, balancing my Love/Hate relationship with my neurospicy... Those last 3 are interconnected in many ways and I'm trying to remember that these things come in waves. But thinking that and knowing that are two wildly different concepts when the world only seems accepting of a person being On all the time, whether they wanna be or not. It's a little hard to go to one's boss and say 'I know I'm not mega productive right now but at some random unknown point in the future I will be bringing my A game and be So Helpful™️".
So yeah there's that.
In better news! I was blessed with reading beans and have been devouring some fantastic fics in a way I haven't been able to for a while. (Eagerly impatiently awaiting the writing beans to return tho). Only 87 days until I get to meet @stereopticons in person. My heart is so, so full. And a mere 62 days until one of my bestest besties releases her first book (!!!!!!!)

I think that's enough for now...

adulthood is just a constant struggle of, “man, i want cookies for breakfast, but I also recognize this is a bad nutritional decision.  On the other hand, the only one who can stop me is me.  i know that fucker’s weaknesses.  i could totally take me in a fight.”

frog and toad are my two remaining brain cells struggling to keep my horrible body alive

just gonna say it, squidward was right about everything

look spongebob is a terrible neighbor and an exhausting person. no one should have to suffer patrick star's lifelong dedication to ignorance & imperviousness to logic. put them in the same room and that's an automatic noise ordinance infraction (plus inevitably public property damage). they are lowkey domestic terrorists. squidward is a grump and a snob but at the end of the day he's a burntnout service worker with a shitty boss who just wants some peace and quiet during his downtime. he asks for so little honestly. all the other characters should be in jail
