World indoor athletics championship, summarized

A scene from our household: @faefyre.bsky.social, reading on her phone: Oh no! Me: What? Faefyre: Shane let out a breath he didn’t know he was holding!

I’m doing a drawing course and am really enjoying this new visual art hobby thing. Most of what I’ve been drawing is course assignments from provided references, but here is an original drawing I did yesterday of some buildings in my neighbourhood that always catch my eye.

Someone found where I put my exercise mat

This is an incredibly good description of an extraordinary book

I am working overtime at home this evening and the stupid software froze and ate all the work and I am very grumpy about it. Thank you for killing my motivation, software. (Easy to redo the stuff, just very tedious)

I've been living in a hotel since mid-2024, and I've finally found an apartment if I can come up with $2500 up front for the deposit + first month's rent. Any help is appreciated, including sharing this post. #MutualAidRequest #TransCrowdFund cash.app/$Settiai paypal.me/poicelle venmo.com/u/Settiai

Okay, but I tripped and fell into my vast sea of old Star Trek: Discovery feels

Got to s3 of Discovery in our rewatch and I forgot how much Mr Sahil makes me cry

#ThePitt this week was many feelings.

I’m a bit sad that I’m not as into Heated Rivalry as some of you and as my partner. Would have been fun to be genuinely swept up by a juggernaut fandom

Still home sick, but now with bonus feelings of “too sick to do anything, but crawling out of my skin with restlessness”.

For reasons (show rewatch), I just reread/rewatched all my ST:Disco fanworks on AO3. I did some good stuff with Stamets and Culber, guys. And now my brain is going “what about the WIPs? What about the time loop missing scenes? What about the tardigrade reproductive biology one with oviposition?”

Took a sick day today because of a cold. Have been entirely useless all day, doing nothing but watching TV and blowing my nose. I do not approve of nose-leakage

Taking Jarvis-dog for three-months-post-surgery checkup at the vet hospital that is in another city. Neither of us like getting up at 5am to catch a train. Incredible moon over the lake, though

Please someone tell me it’s past bed time

I may be slightly obsessed with this season of Bridgerton. What if I wrote a stupid number of words about Sophie going full femdom because Benedict is such a ridiculous disaster goblin submissive?

The X-Files, one of the archives dedicated to that show, probably 22 years old. I read about the existence of fanfic in a newspaper and immediately had to check it out.

Had a haircut and I feel so much nicer. Sitting in a massage chair while hair dresser washed my hair was definitely the kind of relaxation I needed

Feb 24th 1989 - Laura Palmer was murdered in the early hours of the morning. Later that morning, her body was discovered down river. FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper was assigned the case. 📺📅 Twin Peaks (1990) #TwinPeaks #TwinPeaksDay

We’re watching The Americans, hoping not to get derailed before the end this time, and, wow, “Do Mail Robots Dream of Electric Sheep?” is one excellent episode of television

Super impressed by the Swedish women in cross-country skiing this Olympics, and today especially by Ebba Andersson, the first ever female Olympic gold medalist in 50 kilometre classical. Previously only men have skied this longest of distances, but now race distances are the same for men and women.

I made a fanvid for The Pitt for Festivids, for @such-heights.bsky.social. No S2 spoilers. All S1

Time to bring this back, as the men’s curling finale is starting. Sadly no cheese to compete for in the Olympics, but I have faith Bruce Mouat and Scotland can do it just for the gold

This basket full of intricate basket-weave flowers kind of made my day. Did you know arts and crafts are good and human beings make beautiful, clever things with their minds and and hearts and hands? From the article linked below about Chippewa basket weaver Spencer Lunham Jr.

The US vs Slovakia in hockey is just too much red, white and blue. Who is who? Nobody knows! #Olympics

#ThePitt is so much a lot in so many ways

If you want to see an out gay male athlete win an Olympic gold (?), may I recommend the men’s curling final Saturday night

Somehow always amused by the form email from the vet hospital that says my dog should be fasting 6-8 hours before his appointment, but: “(This does not apply to rodents, diabetics, kittens or puppies.)”

This is a CAT checkpoint. Show me the most recent cat image on your phone.

I love watching Olympic outfits and having opinions about the ways countries choose to symbolise their identities

Meanwhile, the curling:

As a Swedish curling fan, I’m honoured our team will be playing these brave men

Post a tree you photographed

Wranå siblings, OMG!!! 🥇🥇🥇🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪 🎉🎉🎉 #olympics

I hope to get a signed version up at some point, but in the meantime, I made a festivid! Firewood, The Pitt. ‘Everyone knows you're going to live / So you might as well start trying’ Sorry not sorry about all the feelings! archiveofourown.org/works/78614536

A #Festivids rec: This vid by marah_sarie is a perfect recruiter vid for Knight Flower, which was one of my best TV experiences last year. Cho Yeowha is a widow constrained by society’s rules by day, a masked, sword fighting hero of the downtrodden by night: archiveofourown.org/collections/...

I made a vid for #Festivids! dirty_diana asked for Emmanouil Karalis (cute Greek pole vaulter) RPF & I made a vid about his very good face, friendship between competitors, and most of all about striving to be your own best though someone else will always be better archiveofourown.org/works/77983396

In other Festivids news, there are so many vids I opt not to watch because I haven’t watched the source but think I might, so I don’t want to be spoiled

Just exported a signed version of my festivid, and damn, I’m just so happy I made that vid.

For the Swedes here: www.mittskifte.org/petitions/st...

Bruce Mouat is playing curling on my TV, so clearly it’s time to kick off the Olympics with the best image in winter sports: Gay Man with Cheese

We’re watching the first event of the Olympics, mixed double curling, Sweden vs South Korea. In the very first end, there is a power outage in the arena. 😂

My book is out!! Read about Drew and Ellis, a recovering workaholic and a recovering asshole who find love at a community volunteer group! It's got queers, it's got disability, it's got immigrants, and they spend the book working together and slowly becoming happier. www.amazon.com/dp/B0GKXFRXD5

@faefyre.bsky.social and I are watching Heated Rivalry on the Swedish one-ep-per-week streaming schedule, which means we have now watched two eps. Meanwhile, faefyre has fallen down the fandom hole, read the books, and keeps telling me about Connor Storrie things she finds on instagram.

I want to watch Festivids, but also I have a low level migraine

Witness me, I am signing several sets of paperwork and mailing them! Defeating the admin of parental #death one small document at a time
