I'm Kate. Aussie, awkward, Autistic ADHD'er with a side serve of PTSD. Feminist killjoy disaster bi pixie, immensely fond of shenanigans and sunflowers. I've been raging against the machine pretty much since birth. Multifandom but mostly The Blacklist, The Rookie, Madam Secretary, and a lot of general nonsense. Fan of sassy, badass, precious dorks, Saram shipper, writer of fanfics, and gif-er of, well, gifs. Humans don't usually make sense to me, but tbh I'm a lot happier about life now that I've stopped trying to pretend that they do -shrugs-

Hello tumblr-verse! -waves-

I have a rare weekend with a smidge of free time. I’m feeling creative and missing my old People & Colour Series moodboards shenanigans (yes it’s over two years old, no I’ve never stopped missing it since :P )

So, please please please send through some requests for this week! This includes if you had one two years ago and you feel like you might like a new one or a different colour now. Knock yourself out :D And please reblog to spread the word so that this can reach anyone who might like a moodboard.

Here’s a copy of the instructions from the original series post:

The really short version is: I like making moodboards/aesthetics. And I like making things for people. So I have challenge myself to make lots and lots of moodboards for people. Except I don’t know that many people… So I’m kinda relying on you guys to volunteer as tributes. With me so far?

How it works: I use google images and search “[name] + [colour] + [any other optional requests you might have] + ‘aesthetic’“, and assemble the top(ish -I’ll take a little artistic license where necessary, mmkay?) results into a grid. Tadaa! You have your ‘aesthetic’ according to google. Sometimes it’s fun to see what craziness you end up with. (Exceptions are below under the cut)

What you need to do: send me an ask or reply, and let me know your name and your favourite colour/s. This can be your first name, nickname, screen name, whatever you fancy. All I need is something vaguely resembling a name or adjective for the search. Similarly you can have one colour [x], two colours [x], or if you’re feeling super indecisive; rainbow [x]! If you have something super specific you want/are interested in, you are welcome to request that too :)

Just don’t ask me to choose for you. I too, am indecisive, and you will end up with either a rainbow or something truly ridiculous. Or both. Your call.

Mmkay folks, that’s it! Request away! :)

(not that any of my remaining tumblr followers really mind, since I’m pretty sure they’re primarily tbl based and the accounts are therefore largely unused now, but for anyone not disinterested, I primarily use twitter now)

Reflections of 2.5 years.

The whim struck me yesterday, wondering how long it’d been since I’d last done any real writing. I knew it’d been a while... And so I went digging through old notebooks for some semblance of a date.

2.5 years, to the day. Well done, universe. Well done, indeed.

It doesn’t feel like it’s been that long. These last few years have passed in a blur, and damn now I’m all reflective and nostalgic.

How on earth is it July already?

This year has been a huge blur for me. It’s kinda crazy to me that only a few months ago, I was still scrolling happily through tumblr every day without fail. granted, I had been getting less active on here for a while (thank you, fandom drama), but I was still here where necessary.

Now I can go weeks without remembering to check tumblr, and months without posting/reblogging anything, and that time flies faster than I can blink.

As an update to anyone who’s wondering (probably none of you, but anyway); early this year I got a job offer, and I took it, very excitedly. It’s not something I can really go into on here, and it’s not something I ever thought I’d be doing, but I absolutely love it. It also keeps me extremely busy, all the time. A lot of my non-work things (not just tumblr) have fallen by the wayside in the last few months, or significantly reduced.

It’s cool though. I’m tired, but the generally speaking I’m the happiest these days than I’ve been in a long time.

Anyway. Tldr; I do still get tumblr notifications, in the off chance something needs my attention. It might take me a while to answer them, but I try to get to them eventually. I just don’t tend to scroll through the dash so much anymore.

Hope you guys are all doing well :) ~Whimsy
