I post whatever I’m into at any given time
ABOUT ME

-> Younger than the Golden Girls but old enough to make that reference. I'm here for a long time, not a good time!

-> The letter 'A' is a frequent occurrence in my biography. My name, my nationality, my religion (or lack thereof), my sexuality (or lack thereof :P), my neurotype all start with 'a'. It doesn't mean anything. Just a neat coincidence!

-> I also don't know what to write in an 'about me'

ABOUT THE BLOG

-> Tumblr is my scrapbook where I post and reblog whatever I'm into (well, almost! Some of my interests don't show up here much). Movies are my life and I have a particular interest in queer cinema. Television is another love of my life and I fell into the world of Asian BLs (particularly Thai) kind of took over at the beginning of January 2024 and haven't looked back

-> Sometimes I ramble about them and you can find those posts here. I sometimes ramble about movies too.

-> Sideblog to organise AouBoom photos, etc., @aouboomarchive

-> My BL masterlist (ranked by country) can be found here

If I ever reblog/post anything AI generated, please let me know! I will never intentionally do so.

MY POSTS
BY SHOW/MOVIE
A FEW OF MY FAVOURITE THINGS
ON TAGGING

I very rarely remember to tag for spoilers, but I tag show and film titles, so you can blacklist those if you still want to follow me. I use NSFT occasionally, and 🍑 for anything with bare bums, because I am mature like that. Flashing gifs get 'flashing' as a tag. And I do tag for horror/blood/gore (horror, cw blood/blood cw, cw gore/gore cw, respectively) when I'm in a horror mood

Very very rarely, you'll get an auspol post, so if you're not interested in that, you can block that too

Getting to know me

Tagged by @my-rose-tinted-glasses - thank you <333

1. What's your blog title from?

2. What movie have you watched most recently? What did you think of it?

Last first time watch (feature length) was the 1952 adaptation of My Cousin Rachel (SO good) and last rewatch was The Boy Who Could Fly because I wanted to watch a 1986 fave for my 40th

3. What are you looking forward to right now?

Going out with my friend tonight and many other things, including seeing First and Khaotung in six weeks!!

4. If you could do anything at all today what would it be?

Finish Unlucky Bae because I was too tired to stay up last night and watch it

5. What's your drink of choice? (coffee/tea order, alcohol of choice, soda, etc.)

Bubble tea

6. What's your hair routine? Anything special?

If I'm staying home, or not going anywhere special, it's just wash and blow dry (except in summer, when I let it air dry), but if I am going out, I'll use mousse or something and scrunch it

7. What's your favourite way to travel? Is there a mode of travel you haven't done that you that you want to?

I don't really like any mode of travel much to be honest

8. Favourite month and why?

August because it's my birthday month haha or October because HALLOWEEEEEEEEN!

9. Favourite time of day and why?

Around 10 or 11pm because I'm finally alone and my neighbours generally make less noise

10. Do you play or follow any sports?

No. I'm a sports hater for life haha

11. What kind of music is stuck in your head a lot lately?

It's always something random! Right now it's Tearing Up My Heart by N*Sync

12. Dishes or laundry?

I'm fine with either? Probably dishes, though. It's more meditative

13. What's something you learned recently?

I've been watching Antiques Roadshow, so I'm learning random stuff from that, but I can't remember anything right now. Damn, my answers are boring

14. If you could give a TED talk on anything, what would you talk about?

Can I give on on Barbie?? I don't really know how TED talks work tbh despite having watched a couple

15. What's a piece of advice you find yourself giving a lot?

To other people? Nothing, really. No one asks me for advice, except occasionally about dolls

16. What's a piece of advice you would give yourself five years ago?

Start watching Thai BLS now and then you'll be in time to buy the Moonlight Chicken boxset (and others I missed out on) lmao

17. Do you believe in luck and superstition? Do you carry any lucky items or follow any?

No

18. Are you musical (play any instruments or sing)? Would you ever perform for an audience?

I like to think I am. I taught myself ukulele and used to play guitar, bass guitar and violin at various stages in my life (wouldn't remember anything, though). And I already have! Probably wouldn't do that again, though haha

19. Write, type, or speak?

Depends on the day tbh

20. What do you wish someone would ask you?

Would you like one million dollars, no strings attached? 🤣
