I've noticed a weird and growing sentiment online from people in middle school and high school, talking about how SPECIFICALLY women college age or above that are still in fandom or geek spaces are weird and "jobless losers". Which is odd because they don't say a word about men that still have the same hobbies they always did. Or about them having hobbies at all. It's specifically women that shouldn't have hobbies or should have PRODUCTIVE hobbies.

And maybe I'm a bit touchy because I cosplay online as a hobby and have had to put in my bio for people under a certain age to please not duet with me. But... we were in these spaces first? Why do we need to go? And why are specifically women not allowed to unwind in a way that doesn't make money or benefit other people? "get a job" I've got two, thanks.

No matter how long I've been working as Eliot's assistant, it will always baffle me how many people will try to plan things for the very last minute. You want to get married in June? Fantastic! That gives you a little over a year... oh you mean this June? Yeah, no. Not happening. You've known you were engaged for how long? Everyone is booked up, and IF you can find someone who can wiggle anything in, it'll cost an insane amount of money. Plus, you know, you have to INVITE PEOPLE. This isn't the sims, you can't plan a wedding day of.

It's really weird thinking I'm almost done with college. When I first joined this network, I was trying to decide between schools. And complaining about my high school drama dept changing what we were doing for the end of the year. And now I'm a few months away from graduating, I have a job, I've been in a professional production, I've been an extra on film, and I have a following making videos online.

It's weird how much I've grown up in the past four years. And I'm just really glad I had all of you to help me along the way.

Tiktok changed the max time for videos from 60 seconds to three minutes. And I'm not sure if I'm annoyed with the change, or if it means I get to be creative with future videos. Because honestly, for me? Getting what I wanted into the time limit was part of the creative process.

Well at least I have one actual friend in my Dreams even without my mother's support for my desires though. Mary Ann, my confidante there and one of the maids, helped me get to my room and out of my flour covered dress without running into my mother since we both know that she'll fly into a rage if she sees me that way. While getting me ready she and I get to share some of the gossip that we've overheard around the house and around the town too - like that the King is planning to introduce his new jester at the ball tonight. And that there's going to be an empty storefront on Main by the end of that month which will be perfect for our pastry shop.

DreamMe knows that I'll have to act quickly to get the store before someone else and before Mother finds out what I'm up too since no heir of Rock Turtle Cove has ever owned or run a business and she's not intending for me to be the first. Since the theme of the party is black and white, I'd planned on a simple sort of white ball gown - which honestly I fell in love with here when I woke up to my wardrobe having crossed over - but Mother shows up at my room and insists that I wear her choice, a low cut red dress that is too just a little too small and the corset has to be cinched far too tight for my comfort in order for me to wear it. My mother's response when I tell her I can't breathe because of how tight it is "You shouldn't take seconds on desserts and you'll just have to go without dinner tonight". I just know that when the next Dream hits if it's that party it's going to be utter hell for me.

Today I had a client ask we tell the caterer he wanted candle salads as a starter dish. And I've never heard of a candle salad before. So I looked it up. Okay fruit salad of some sort, but why is it called a candle salad?

So I kept scrolling to the finished picture. And um.

I don't really have much (any) experience in that area, but that really doesn't look like a candle to me, and I can really only think of one way you'd eat that.

Did I mention this event was a wedding rehearsal dinner? How much do you have to hate your in-laws?

I saw the White Rabbit again in my Dreams! And this time he talked to me! Well he thought I was someone named Mary Ann but that's not the important part! He needed my help to keep the Duchess from executing him over something or other by going to his house to get his gloves and fan that he'd dropped in the Hall we fell into. The Hall disappeared while the flood was happening so I went running off and find his house by following the signs that point in that direction. As soon as I went in the house it finally hit me how weird all of this is and I ended up fantasizing for a few minutes about what it would be like to have Dinah ordering me around the way the Rabbit did but then I realized she probably wouldn't be let in the house doing that.

I found his fan and gloves and right next to them a little bottle on the table and clearly dreamAlice hasn't learned anything about just eating and drinking what she sees in this strange world I'm dreaming about because she drinks the bottle down even though there's no label on it because her logic - something interesting is bound to happen - and she's not wrong. She starts to grow bigger which is great at first until she stops drinking from the bottle only to keep growing. Finally dreamAlice is so big that she has to lay on one side with her arm out the window and one foot up the Rabbit's chimney in order to fit in the house and that's when she quits growing.

And that was when I woke up.

All I wanted was to watch Apollo’s tiktok videos of Aladdin and now I’m somehow following a skateboarding French bulldog. I’m blaming Apollo for this. It’s his fault.

I'm still a little upset that I was trapped in Fillory and everyone else got to go back to Earth and get demons put in their backs. But I guess in the long run it's a good thing. The tattoo that Quentin had to get to seal his in was tragic. I had another dream - the Beast forced Margo, Alice, Quentin and I to try to kill each other through a curse he'd placed on our thrones. It would affect any child of Earth but we were the lucky ones who got to be Kings and Queens after he took over. Way to go us right?

Penny solved the problem though - he poisoned all of us and then brought us back using adrenaline. Our deaths, even temporarily, were enough to satisfy the curse so we stopped trying to murder one another so we were able to get back to figuring out how to defeat the Beast which would have gone off perfectly if Julia hadn't interfered with Alice's attack so instead of killing him he was just wounded and took off with Quentin and Alice following him.

When the battle finally happens, Quentin gets hurt by the Beast and Alice uses the battle magic spell anyway even though she doesn't have enough power which results in her turning into a Niffin and after killing him, which thank God that's done, starts to go after me and Margo but that brilliant idiot Quentin releases his demon to kill NiffinAlice so that we're safe.

My other social media of choice besides this thing is tiktok. What can I say, I love cosplay. And... I have a magic item that GIVES me costumes. It's a match made in heaven.

If you don't have one or haven't heard of it, a lot of it is people lipsynching as characters from various things to song clips or memes. Well, today I was going through to find a song to make a video with, only to find clips of my own voice from when I did Six.

I'm torn between "wait, how is this clip on here?" and kind of thrilled at the same time.

I love how Alice and I look like we're going to vastly different Christmas parties. She's in like... three layers of clothes before her dress even starts and looks like an extra from A Christmas Carol. Meanwhile I look like I'm in that one scene from Mean Girls.

Now that Thanksgiving is over I'm able to announce that Pink's Treats is taking a limited order of Christmas orders for baked goods! Mention the Network in the comment section for your order and get a bonus personal sized cake with your choice of flavor. I'm not thinking about the fact the tree regrew after they removed it. I can't think about that. I need to keep busy.

So you know how before Halloween I usually bug everyone here about the local Rocky Horror midnight showing and I didn't this year? There was a reason for that. This year's musical at school IS The Rocky Horror Show, and I got the part of Columbia! I figured I'd let someone else take her for the RHPS shadow cast this year and focus my energy on being the best Columbia I can be on stage. As usual, the first showing will be in December, and I'm looking forward to seeing all of you there! (Thomas, can you distract my parents from... any parts you know they're not going to want to watch? Thanks!)

School it's so bad in my dreams, I mean I'm dealing with popular girls being bitches, but other than that, I kinda like it. I'm still on the task of getting the wand for mother, but I'm going about it another way, which I'm not too fond of. I gave the Prince spelled cookies for her could fall in love with me.

I know, I know, but the thing is...I think I'm falling for him? Weird.


Also woke up to my mother spell book in my bed.

The last time I saw anyone angerclean was back in 8th grade when Mom saw my F in pre-algebra. But the past few days have been a weird trip down memory lane because that's what Alice is doing with her post break-up energy. She's getting rid of so much stuff, and I'm not sure if that's a good or a bad thing. I've never seen her closet have this much room in it before? But she's got four huge boxes of things to donate to charity. And I've lost track of just how much stuff we've been taking pictures of for her to list on LaceMarket.

These Dreams are a special sort of madness once they start aren't they? Just flooded by them...and letters from no one I recognize flooding my house being delivered by Owls. Didn't know anyone used birds to deliver things in modern times anymore. Dream uncle went insane, wouldn't even let me have one. There were hundreds at least. Made us move to some lighthouse island to escape them.

I thought I'd gotten the rabbit I woke up to last month comfortably established at the Magic Guild. Nice little hutch in the library for people to talk to it, and be as creeped out as I was by it's repeated use of one word in that grating voice, but I go in today to feed and water the little thing and it's pouting in the corner of it's hutch not looking at anyone.

Anybody know if rabbits can get depressed? And if they can what do I do to fix it?

Moving back in with Eliot and Felix. Engagement is off and Roman is selling the house. Does anyone have a van or something they could volunteer? I have a lot more clothes than I did when I moved before and really don't want to have to make multiple trips. I'm not taking any of the furniture so it's just my clothes, jewelry and makeup.

I will be forever grateful for Magnus' glamour. If I had lost my eye after he left then I'd be stuck with everyone being able to see this stupid eye patch. Fucking fairy bitch had better give me my eye back soon, because I'm not going to live with this glamour forever and there's no way I'm getting married with one eye. This honestly couldn't have happened at a worse time.

I just found out from a Tik Tok that apparently your tongue sticks to dinosasur bones/fossils, which is an easier way to find out if it's a fossil or rock.

Mind blown. Tik Tok can be good for a few things apparently.

Now that the final papers have been signed and filed I can announce that Yondu signed ownership of Lux over to me. It just made the most sense with him having some more pressing issues needing his attention right now since I already know the staff and how he was running things since Lucifer gave it to him. God when am I ever going to sleep

Don't worry regulars - I'm not going to be making any major changes to the place. Why fix it if it isn't broken right? About the only thing I know for sure that I'll be needing to do is hire some new staff. Not just for there but that's the immediate start dates

Have any of you ever had a realization about a game after years of playing it that after you realize it is just so obvious that you can't figure out how you never got it before? That was me today with Pokemon Go. Ekans is just snake spelled backwards and it's the name of a snake pokemon.

Dream me is an idiot. I should have left but nooooo. I stayed to film Ladybug and Cat Noir fighting the supervillain The Pharoah. And who gets kidnapped by him? ME. And what does he want to do with me? Sacrifice me. I swear dream me is so single minded sometimes. Always about the latest scoop.

I really should have listened to my gut when Mina's dad brought up adding daddy to the new campaign we're planning for once things calm down on set. He used to always be a part of our D&D campaigns but when his company took off he had to miss a few.

And now I remember why the loss wasn't all that bad - he decided today that part of his characters backstory involves curing cows of addiction to the game world equivalent of meth.

Has anybody else woken up to find a item from their Dreams the same night they started having them? Or maybe a couple of items even?

I wear this ring in mine that looks kind of like a cat's face and when I woke up this morning it was on my hand and Plagg was on the nightstand with Camembert cheese.

My Dreams didn't really start off on a good note though. I was back in Paris living with my dad and it was my birthday. My best friend there wanted to throw me a party but my father refused and even went so far as to ban him from the house as a bad influence on me. The next thing I knew there was someone putting all of the adults in bubbles for not being fun and preventing kids from having fun and sending them into the atmosphere and then throwing me a party. He called himself The Bubbler. I thought it was great until I realized how unhappy all of my classmates and friends were about their parents which is when I went into the house and turned into a superhero named Cat Noir? I guess to get help and then this superhero wearing a black leather cat suit with ears named Cat Noir showed up and went out to fight him with another superhero, a girl dressed up as a Ladybug named...Ladybug. We managed to defeat him and then after destroying his weapon to release the akuma inside of it and Ladybug turned it back into a regular butterfly - The Bubbler turned back into my best friend Nino and all of the parents came back so it all worked out in the end.

It was just really weird.

Success! Maman has decided with everything that happens around here she would feel better if Casper lived inside the house with us and the dogs. So now I just need to take him to the vet to get his shots and a collar and he'll be safe inside from anyone trespassing in our yard. She says his bed will have to be downstairs in the living room but that's fine. He's going to be in the house now.

These Dreams are definitely a roller coaster. I laid down for a nap and found myself traveling through a place called the NeverNever with Harry and his friend. It's the quickest way to get to where they're holding our girls at, but of course our shit luck means that we get caught by his fairy godmother. Who despite what the fairytales say is not a kind woman who wants to grant our wishes and make our lives better. She wants to kill us pretty much, I think. Michael, Harry's friend, and I stay behind to fight while he goes to our girls. I really don't know how we survived the fight, unless one of us has a nice fairy godmother looking out for us, but we did and exited into a strip club. Which I'm pretty sure I enjoyed a lot more than he did.

There's something very freeing about not having to go to Japan for the summer. Father is trying to push but the court ruling was very specific - I only have to go to him during the summer until I'm 18. If I choose to visit after that it's my choice. And I'm choosing not to go.

...My Dreamself is really not very observant when it comes to the little things happening to her. The rabbit dropped his fan and gloves while running away from me after my giant state scared him. I was using his fan to cool off and it must have reversed the cakes effect somehow because I was able to put one of his gloves on. Unfortunately - I forgot the key again while I was still tall enough to reach it but I did drop the fan so I didn’t shrink anymore. I just have to deal with the mess of the tears I cried while a giant having formed a sort of sea around me so I’m probably one of the few people who can honestly say that I’ve been in danger of actually drowning in their own tears. Nice right.

I also found out that it’s not just the white rabbit who talks - there’s a mouse trapped in the tear sea with me and I mention Dinah and accidentally frighten it off. Or offend it? I’m not really sure which so I start talking about dogs and that’s...not an improvement and the mouse just leaves me there by myself and refuses to talk to me anymore if I don’t promise not to talk about cats or dogs either one anymore. While we’re floating there I notice there’s actually a lot of animals in the water with us and the mouse promises to tell me it’s history once we get to the shore which has...somehow appeared in the distance. I lead it and the other animals to the shore and that’s when I woke up, soaked through and had to strip the sheets off my bed to run through the wash. I’m so glad I decided to just be honest with Daddy about these Dreams. I didn’t have to come up with any explanation at all for absolutely soaked bedding.

Or for the fan and gloves that have now joined the cake and cordial on my dresser top. I’m starting to have a nice little collection of Dream items there.

Now that we're almost finished with promoting the Byron film I can announce that - it's probably going to be my last film role. Good genes and skin care regimen will only explain away my lack of aging for so long so better to go out now than put it off. Maybe I’ll start playing around with the area theater, explore that world a little bit. I’ve got time to figure it out.

Well one part of being high king of Fillory that does suck? I can’t ever leave the country again, so I’m stuck there by myself while everyone goes back to Brakebills to figure out another way to defeat the Beast. And one of the first things I learn on the throne? My kingdom is facing a famine due to the way the Wellspring was abused and I have to teach them how to farm without magic. Looks like my growing up on a farm there actually did come in handy eventually.

How do you guys know what's a DREAM-dream and what feels like... more than that?

'Cause like, one time I dreamed I had a GIANT keyblade and was fighting heartless on campus at school. And another time I had to eat a bowl of ramen the size of my bed before THE WORLD ENDED. And another time I was going to super hero school and could electrocute people and it was super scary 'cause I didn't want to hurt anyone. AND ANOTHER TIME I was on stage in the drama club in middle school and didn't know any lines so I just made stuff up until the curtain dropped, and nobody even noticed!

They all felt kinda normal-weird, ya know?

I don't know about the rest of you, but I am absolutely living! I've always WANTED to be in a video game! Anyone want to join me in cosplaying while we hit all these boxes? It doesn't matter if you don't have a costume, I'm using my compact to disguise myself and I don't mind using it on you as well.

Now that it’s official I can announce - I’ve got another movie in the works! It’s not a sequel to my last one exactly but it is going to be in that same universe, so if you wanted to know what happened to some of the characters….this could be your chance to find out. And since it’s not a direct sequel if you haven’t seen the other one don’t worry. It’s going to stand alone.

Am I insane to be taking on so many projects and trying to stay this busy?

Yes you heard me speaking Japanese on the phone in the campus computer lab. And you were absolutely right in saying I don’t look Japanese. Good to know this year’s freshman class is so observant.

Now if only I could get some assurance that they aren’t all judgemental jackasses like this guy. I wasn’t speaking Japanese in an attempt to be “trendy”. I was speaking it with okaasan because since we found out that I understand a lot more of the language than any of us thought - we’ve been speaking it on the phone so that I can learn even more. One of the benefits of my best friend’s parents being my second parents.

I do so love being a punching bag for people's racism. I was told to take my germs and go back to China while I was completely minding my own business and not showing any signs of being sick. I'm not sick. To my knowledge, I've never even been to China. But sure, accuse me of spreading the coronavirus just because I'm Asian. Racist asshole just needed to make himself feel better by putting me down. I hate people.

So it's not bad enough that we have spam mail and spam calls, but now we have spam texts? I felt the need to share the one I received today.

Cut for Size. Viewable to all )

First of all, the obvious, my name is not Marco, so clearly it wasn't actually meant for me personally and second, I really don't need whatever they're selling or pretending to sell. Trust me. ;)

I've been so busy between school, practice, and work that I haven't even had time to post here about my mother's reaction when I got the part.

Mom thinks she has a sense of humor. I mean, okay. She does, but it's a weird one. Knowing how absolute horrified I've been about the movie version of Cats since the trailers first hit, she decided to tell me that to celebrate? She was going to get us all tickets. The woman told me this with a straight face, waiting until the look of horror and shock washed over me before she finally gave up and started cracking up.

Thank the gods that it's already out of theaters, because I think she would have actually spent money on this joke otherwise.
