My chair is supposed to arrive today! So excited! Hopefully this will mean an end to some of the chronic pain!! 🥹

PSA: Check with your public transit operators before paying for fare on any online site. Google maps said fare was required and linked to a pay site. I bought a day pass ... and then discovered that the city does not charge fare. Public transit is free. So it's a lesson learned by money lost.

Live in the frozen path? Bathroom on an exterior wall? Open your cabinets and set your sink to drip water. If possible run a small space heater in the areas farthest from your vents. Kita, why would I need to worry about that? My house is comfortably warm. 🧵

Household object challenge arranged by @gettohooking.bsky.social ! My challenge came from @brianna_moooore on Instagram. Make a doorknob in my style! Well, my style is to fly by the seat of my pants with no pattern and very little in the way of a plan save for a nerdy idea of a fandom dream!

Did you know that if someone from LA wanted to drive to their nation's capital to protest, it would be longer than the drive from Lisbon, Portugal to Athens, Greece? Almost 4300 kilometers and that's not even all the way to the edge of the nation. Just driving around Canada is over 7000km.

I've been playing XIV so long that I have seen the return of the Horse. (I know there are players who have been in it longer, but it still hurts this kelpie's knees to say it.)

The cutoff for this to guarantee it for NA Fan Fest is coming up fast!! I'll still take the commission after that, but I can't promise anything given the amount of work that went into the first set.

"What are you in for?" "Wanting to be able to complete more than one task a day"

Hotel room with accent curtains as opposed to functional light blockers? That pen in your bag makes a handy clip to help reduce the glare of that beacon of a lamppost! ... I am so tired. It took me far too long to think of this solution and I'm going to add actual clips to my road kit now.

Tips from your favorite traveling fAeDHD artist! Leave your shoes in front of the mini fridge (or big fridge if the hotel is cool like this one was) if you have breakfast or caffeine you need to remember on the day you checkout.

Naka-Kon is taking you to Nihon! Naka-Kon’s mission has always been to celebrate Japanese culture, & we’re excited to announce a new experience to support that cause. Naka-Kon is sending one outstanding member of the our community on a 5-day, 4-night trip to Tokyo, Japan!

Inner Child: I saw so much cool stuff today. Did you have fun at the convention today? Me: *considers broken body and mental difficulties she struggled with all day* ... More than other cons we've attended. Inner Child: Yay!! Me: .... yay. #Convention #fAeDHD #JustKeepSwimming

My cat enjoys the luxurious lifestyle of having food so I was forced to post this. Should I actually make more videos in future?

Portfolio Time!

I'm going to say this once again: If you speed through the early alliance raids and force sprouts to panic skip their cutscenes to catch up, I will not heal/rez you if I'm the healer or will drag the tank buster over your ass if I'm the tank. Manners matter, dickhead.

Momodi would send several groups of adventurers in after my little WoL's AWOL ass and one would finally return with news that I have made a fortress in the back corner with a Home Alone vs Equalizer style killing field leading up to it and refuse to come out until I get a vacation from shards dying.

I would like to have a conversation with folks who sway actors away from having a basic demo when they feel ready to audition for things. With how the indie industry is more keen on demo drops and calls instead of standard audition sides, not having a demo seems limiting.

1. Volume controls for ANY audio, preferably split by type but at least master volume and 2. Keybind setting options for accessibility reasons 3. Color or pattern adjustment settings on necessary game mechanics. 4. SUBTITLES!!!

Generic Vyvanse takers, take heed.

So many pop to mind ... How do I choose?

Nakama! Don't forget about Naka-ween, October 31 (Halloween Night) from 6:00pm - 9:00pm, co-hosted by our friends at the Lolita Collective! Facebook Event: www.facebook.com/events/20128... RSVP HERE: forms.gle/UN2hKnnPE5dr...

Some days I miss steady income. EVERY day I do NOT miss having panic attacks at the thought of going to a hostile work environment. I made the right choice for my health and I work hard even without pay. If you're in the same position, don't let anyone berate you for working for yourself.

Stumbled upon my old portfolio from school. Time capsule in charcoal. Not posting pictures until I have a chance to go through and see which have survived storage.
