So legitimately, I think Steve may have stumbled onto the source of this spider’s jankiness… I have frequently been taking a cup of coffee with me into the backyard as we work on all of our projects. Spider guy is a beverage thief?!

Canadians, I think it’s important we get loud and vocal about this stuff. Use the link & follow the instructions she kindly laid out, it takes very little time to do this.

Took this photo in the yard earlier, while helping my dad with more of the shed project. It’s very much spider season right now, and out of the many webs around… this poor lil guy had done the worst job. Keep trying, bub, at least you put your creations out into the world! #Brave #Inspo #B2B

Cover lever writing will never not be mind-numbing. As someone that has hired for several roles I understand the use/need for them (And I do always read them!). But I'm also immediately bored by writing them. It feels like a mini black hole or 'insta writer's block' no matter how many I've written 🫠

Since today is Monday, I suppose it's a good time to remind folks that I'm still looking for work. > 13 years of game dev experience > marketing & community team leader/builder with a passion for true employee mentorship > love working in environments where I partner with design/production

LinkedIn remains depressing

What the fuck Tom Holland better be okay 😭

Saw the Downton Abby movie with my parents today, good family watch and I def cried at that tribute shot for Maggie Smith* *if you complain about this being a spoiler, in a rare instance I will proactively call you dumb. Of course they were going to do a tribute shot to her

A group of youth climate researchers affiliated with UC Davis is trying to fix climate models to correct for fossil fuel industry propaganda that has snuck its way in. But... of course their funding was just cut. :( So they're doing a GoFundMe. www.gofundme.com/f/support-Ba...

Went for a long walk w my bff earlier - she dropped in at my parents house, we walked to our old elementary school and junior high/middle school*. I hadn’t been to my middle school I think since I left school? What a TRIP. *our ‘junior high’ transitioned to ‘middle school’ while we were there

This study should itself force companies amd govt to cease planning use of these models in any critical or meaningful way. And yet.

I don’t really ‘love’ Doritos but this post made me crave Doritos on principal 💀

I will day this, the Disney Adults have proven themselves much more ready to meet this moment than any Harry Potter Adult has.

I love how AI has made it that now when you do see a cool video of human achievement or nature instead of just enjoying it you also have to wonder if it’s real. It is sucking the life out of everything

I’ve spent all day duel-wielding cordless drills, assembling various shit in the backyard with my dad, and getting a metric ton of dirt between my toes since I’ve worn sandals the entire time… … I feel like I missed a DOOZY of a news cycle today and I think I’m just… not… going to catch up on it?

@clapifyoulikeme.favrd.social is a dear friend of mine and a civil litigator who has dedicated her life to doing good for the world. She is being sued by a hateful troll for a thread she wrote on Twitter, which she had every legal right to post. PLEASE if you can spare it help her out.

Holy smokes am I -tired- today. Been in bed since 9. My last two brain cells are herp-derp-ing along…

Holy SHIT 💀

Did you think that was all for my shop drop today! NYHOO! I have also added ANOTHER cute sticker sheet- now Figgy can enjoy Halloween with his big sister Rosie! 🖤🧡🎃🍂 shop.yamino.art/collections/... #stickers #dachshund #goldenretriever #halloween #puppy #fall #autumn #pupcup #pumpkinspice

Does one of my mutuals feel like DMing me a very factual run down of the plot to Weapons? Because I’m curious about the plot but I can’t watch horror movies because I’m a chicken shit. Were they hypnotized in music class? Is it actually a true story? What’s goin on there 😂🫣

Always a fabulous reminder ✨

How is this monster still in charge of Alberta? Someone please just mail her to the US since she’s so dang eager to get in on the MAGA circle jerk. Just a vile, wretched woman that makes me increasingly mad with her bigotry.

It could be because the sun has gone away, but I woke up feeling decidedly bleh today. Probably also tied to the job hunt thing….

Wait, Yahoo still exists???

History is going to remember the pieces of trash that tried to silence speaking against injustice. You always get what's coming to you. Always.

The local radio station is advertising a Star Wars symphony event quite frequently. The Star Wars theme song has been my ring tone for 12 years. I ONLY have my ringer on if I’m expecting an important call. I’ve been been running to find my ‘ringing’ phone a lot today, only to remember… that’s an ad

We have two sets of dice left: The Geode set, and the Arctic Bloom set. A $75 donation to help kids through my Extra Life page gets you your choice of one of these sets of dice. Brand new, in original packaging, never used, guaranteed* uncursed. bit.ly/CGELGlenn25 *Your mileage may vary.

Spent 5 hrs paddling into a no cell reception zone with my brother, SIL & dad today. Went swimming in icy cold mountain fed water. Ate a picnic lunch on a creek-side sand bar. Saw herons, dragonflies, butterflies, wildflowers, and a bear cub. Best of all, have NO IDEA of the day’s news cycle/horrors

I do a shit job of promoting my own stuff (lol), but someone just bought a t-shirt of my Street Sharks/Sharkleberry Fin mash-up design for the first time ever, so I'll end the day with a tiny celebratory fist pump and link to the design (that has previously only ever sold as a sticker)

If you see this, quote with the energy you bring to BlueSky *I dunno, probably this level of excited chaos and zero societal masking?

I’ve been enjoying staying at my parents house since I got back from Alberta, especially because helping my parents with stuff around the house is a great distraction, AND I’m utterly spoiled by mom’s cooking while I’m here. But at some point I do have to go home and water my likely angry plants 🫣

Forgot to take shed progress pics today but I am exhausted deep in my bones. Instead, you can have a pic of pumpkin guts that we’re scraping out for a recipe tomorrow

Sometimes, all we can do is focus on being a ‘determined little scrap of life’ 💪✨

Oh gosh, I choked up reading this. I can’t share this news with my mother right now, her mom passed due to Alzheimer’s and his books were the -cornerstone- of reading for 36 years of running her daycare. This story cuts deep 💔

One day left of free shipping in the shop! 🍂🍄‍🟫📚

<Sunday night stress>

I didn’t want to jinx it until they were actually here, but - it only took 3 days between contacting someone on Facebook and them actually coming to pick up my parents spare canoe… It’s a Christmas miracle ✨

Today is the first rainy day in quite some time, forcing some rest on the outdoor projects, and it feels like the most ‘Sunday-iest’ Sunday of all the Sundays as a result ☕️🥰🌧️🕯️ tea & crumpets for breakfast also help underscore the Sunday-ness of it all

Bonus: a lot of women find allyship to be one of the most attractive qualities. A man that vocally advocates for others is something I pay attention to. (I say this because sometimes this shit helps motivate CIS dudes. It shouldn’t be required but if we can move the needle in the right direction…)

The extra shelving I made for the linen closet at my parents house was finally finished today, and surprising my mom with something that makes her life easier is a 12/10 feeling 🥰

I judge people that cannot comprehend this concept HARSHLY, *especially* in business. Because it means they’re not smart enough to grasp this, & likely make poor choices - either in hiring, in choosing vendors, or choosing biz partners. Either way, folks that don’t understand this often fuck up

It’s taking all of my self control to not send this to every mother fucker that said anyone that thought they’d try to do this was way off base.

A full day of manual hard labor and wicked bad PMS do not mix 😅🫠

Sweating buckets hauling around and measuring cedar siding 🥵

And today I learned how to use a circular saw and a mitre saw 😄😎 Also I am very very sore and very tired

Helping my parents with projects around their house is a great way to alleviate job search stress, until the evening hits and existential dread takes over

to my mind the woman who dies of sepsis because of antiabortion laws, or the person who dies because they can't afford insulin -- these are just as much victims of political violence as the man shot through the throat while making a racist speech
