alias_sqbrThree ships: He Xuan/Shi Qingxuan, Dave/Terezi, Utena/Anthy
First ever ship: Mannn I don't knoooow, I've been shipping a long time and I am pretty old! But I think my first ironclad OTP was Anne/Diana from Anne of Green Gables. Even now, any time I am reminded Anne married Gilbert I have this moment of "NO. ANNE/DIANA 5EVER". I didn't even realise I shipped it, I just felt VERY STRONGLY that they should run off together and be bff roommates with no boys allowed.
Last song: I mostly listen to the radio, and before that was a music meme I already posted to tumblr so...have a random song from my wishlist on bandcamp, to see if I can embed it:
(Hmm, looks embedded but with a big gap? Sorry for the scrolling, folks)
Last movie: I'm sure it wasn't Jungle Cruise but that's the last one I remember. It was mostly fun but kinda racist.
Currently reading:
"Faraway Wanderers" by Priest is the only thing I'm partway through and intending on probably finishing one day. Oh and I guess "Game Programming Patterns" by Bob Nystrom. Next up is likely "Black Water Sister" by Zen Cho or "A Desolation Called Peace" by Arkady Martine, unless I read some random fluffy romance in between.
Currently watching:
Murderville (silly fun)
Life With an Ordinary Guy Who Reincarnated Into a Total Fantasy Knockout (ditto)
Inventing Anna (trashy yet compelling)
Currently consuming:
Just had scrambled eggs on toast with bacon, mushrooms, and carrots. I didn't have any cooked potatoes and I did have cooked carrots but I'm still not sure they were a good choice. But I ate a vegetable, hooray.
Unless the question means "Other media which aren't books/movies/tv" in which case: Gamewise, I am playing Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Doraemon: Story of Seasons, both of which have their flaws but are overall fun. And I am regularly reading the currently updating webcomics The Kiss Bet and Tigress Queen, which are two very different flavours of tropey m/f romance and fun for what they are.
Currently craving: Something cold and refreshing, I am Too Warm. Actually, maybe I'll have an icy pole (popsicle)! Thanks for the idea, meme :)

I don't know if this holds on in the anime, but there's a surprising amount of playing around with gender/sexuality and a great sense of humor beyond what I'd expect with that kind of title.
my god, I just checked and your low temperature is near my area's high and I had a tip top today because I felt hot. DDD: I can never visit Australia in the summer

Oh god, no, do NOT visit Australia in the Summer, especially not this part of it. We're like a mirror image of the usual tropes around the seasons: Summer is all dead plants and awful weather, Winter is when nature comes alive and going outside is pleasant.
Also what is a tip top, here it's a popular brand of cheap white bread which caused me a moment of confusion. I mean maybe you cool down with bread, I'm not judging!
