My husband's a Scorpio.

When I think of Scorpio I think of some pretty specific things and this perfume isn't it.

Sometimes that's a good thing, sometimes it's a bad thing, sometimes it's a neutral thing.

Scorpio: A summer rainstorm, white Egyptian amber, bright pink peppercorns, dalmatian sage.

Scorpio is October 24 to November 22, meaning it's very solidly an autumn or spring sign. "Summer rainstorm" doesn't make sense. Vibes-wise it makes sense, Scorpio and Rainstorm, but there's autumnal and spring rainstorms. This also doesn't smell like rain at all. It also doesn't smell like peppercorns or sage (although dalmatian sage might just be something I'm unfamiliar with).

I'm not a fan of this scent, and it kind of gives me a headache. It's only been "resting" for about a week since I got it so I'll try it again in a week or two and see if I like it more. It's got a kind of plastic-ness to it, although it doesn't smell like plastic, if that makes sense. It's just a sort of feeling.

Heated Rivalry, the Canadian show about queer hockey romance, is popping up all over Dreamwidth (as well as every other platform). The Squeaky Wheel, which bills itself as "the first-ever satire publication that focuses on the experience of having a disability" channels The Onion as it mocks our disabled lives. Here’s their first take on the series:


Audio Description Ruins Family TV Night During Unexpected Sex Scene - The Squeaky Wheel

[hero photo not reproduced here; its alt text is "a family watching Heated Rivalry"]

A recent family TV night at the household of 14-year-old Sarah Mason ended abruptly when the audio description began to vividly relay the details of an unexpected and lengthy sex scene.

“It went on and on about the positions, and how much pleasure was on their faces, and so much ‘thrusting,’” said Sarah’s mother, Beverly Mason. “It was excruciating. I shut it off and told everyone to go to bed.”

I'd love to learn whether Heated Rivalry's audio description is as sexy as the Squeaky Wheel would have it.

The house has been either entirely too cold or very pleasant, and no middle ground. There's been a fire all day, and it has helped a lot. One of the big issues we have is concrete floors, and it's slick and keeps the cold really well. Perfect for summer. Awful, terrible, no good, and bad for winter.

But I do have house shoes that supposedly are arriving tomorrow? I'm fine if they show up Monday though. I don't really like how the USPS has to deliver packages on Sundays.

The upcoming months are already filling up. I'm going to be busy so many weekends!
