im honestly surprised (not really surprised considering what website this is) that i haven’t seen anyone on here talk about Lil Nas X getting violently arrested after suffering some kind of mental health episode. I wish he was getting more attention and support.
good article explaining what happened and why the response to it, which is mostly people chalking it up to a joke since they never took Lil Nas X seriously as a real person, is so sad to see
Name: Sarah, but you can also call me Paperlady (or any nickname you like).
Age: 19 (turning 20 in November).
Location / Timezone: UTC+3.
I mostly post about:
Life updates, reflections, and general diary-type entries. I’m hoping to use Dreamwidth as a way to slow down, read more, and improve my writing through conversations and entries. Expect book notes, film thoughts, and sometimes just little pieces of my day. My posting schedule will probably be all over the place — sometimes a lot at once, sometimes nothing for a bit, and occasionally a steady routine when I get into a groove.
My hobbies are:
Baking, playing guitar, journaling, photography, sometimes art and editing. I love discovering new music and I get a little too invested in my playlists. I’m also trying to get deeper into reading and writing.
My fandoms / media loves are:
Coming-of-age stories, slow romances, and movies that ache in quiet ways (Before Sunrise, Only You, Romeo + Juliet 1996, etc.). Been getting into poetry (Rilke, Mary Oliver, Patti Smith) and a mix of alternative/indie music — Jeff Buckley, Radiohead, The Strokes, Smashing pumpkins, The Killers, etc.
I’m looking to meet people who:
Like exchanging thoughts and snippets of daily life, who enjoy books, films, and music, and who are here for conversation.
My posting schedule tends to be:
Erratic, distracted, then obsessed. Probably a couple times a week when I’m consistent.
Before adding me, you should know:
I deal with some anxiety when it comes to talking, but I’m hoping this space helps me through that. I don’t post anything graphic, though some of the media I love touches on heavier themes like heartbreak, mental health, or loss.
Dealbreakers:
I’m not interested in anyone who puts others down for who they are, cruelty, or being dismissive.
honestly my art has always been abt melancholy feelings of nostalgia.. like it was amazing once and who knows the future? im just trying to vibe in my own bubble and ill die out like everything on the web…. pop!

Narrator: “Water. Unlike other cats, long-haired Persians need regular baths to keep their luxurious coats healthy and fluffy. Reginald doesn’t care if he has a prize-winning coat. He just wants the ordeal to be over.”
Reginald: *meows in distress*
Narrator: Unfortunately for Reggie, there’s one last step. He’s about to learn that getting wet is nothing – compared to getting dry.”
