welp now i'm nauseated from a reply to the thread i posted to distract myself and feel better 🙏 hence deleted.

Me as a passenger listening to a rambling PA from the captain: does the world really need more talking Me if I were an airline pilot: smashing that PA button every five minutes just to revel in the glory of human flight, MY DUDES CHECK OUT THAT SWEET CLOUD

Tragic news. I had an absolutely insane outfit ready for a ceremony this week and now it will be too cold for said outfit

Guys I made a new friend and she's 87

there is so much amazing knowledge for free on the internet. i'm SCREAMING today i'm teaching myself music theory

The same way that the invention of washing machines raised expectations about how much cleaning women should be doing (you guessed it, more)

i've never tried to sing before but when my dog does a little howl before going outside it sounds perfect and because he is my biological dog this must mean i too will be a great singer

someone told this girl in our language group that "i love you" in chinese is 西兰花 so she's been running around going 西兰花 to random people but guys 西兰花 means broccoli

You could make seven of Tarsem Singh's The Fall and still have 10 million left over

Counter to my fears I have actually been receiving a lot of love and fame for my anti-AI stance over on LinkedIn!

The doom got me. Held out for much longer this time than I did during previous states of the world and I'll be ok but man. I did not miss feeling this way.

You're not going to make any money doing this and no one is going to read it, so you must hope for a secret third thing to happen

I am just so spiritually offended by this. One of my most helpful core beliefs is that anyone can learn anything to at least a middling degree - not everyone can be world class, but I really think everyone can make progress and almost everyone can get to "huh, not bad!"

My dog lies on the floor instead of his bed or the sofa just so he would be A LITTLE BIT closer to me 😭

Me: I would like to learn Thing because I don't think I can do Thing. Teacher: You can't and will never be able to do Thing. Me: I THINK I CAN DO THING

Okay gang I'm doing TikTok, come over if you want! www.tiktok.com/@becauseivy

Periodic reminder that I also paint

Damn when you regularly challenge yourself to try things you think you can't do you actually do occasionally come across something you can't do

Public Service Announcement we met Eli's girlfriend outside, this makes 3 perfect dog walking days in a row!!! After his multiple health shenanigans this is VERY SPECIAL to me 🥹

Sun's out, 17°C, 98% of my problems have suddenly disappeared

trying to get eyeballs on our opera movie, everybody pls go like and comment etc on this video so the tiktok algorithm finds it desirable www.tiktok.com/@becauseivy/...

Not one but two great career things today, not one but two perfect walks with my perfect doggie in this PERFECT SPRING WEATHER

PSA Do not use wix for anything professional - I still had my business email set up through there, was given false information by customer service despite literally quadruple checking, my account was taken offline & bounced as "undeliverable" - lord knows what I missed and what consequences I suffer

"The men implicated in the Epstein files reinforces that I spend half my life explaining to men that their simplified, optimistic view of other men doesn’t line up with the experience of women and girls trying to dodge sexual harassment, assault and abuse attempts." - Leslie Morgan Steiner

Ich gerade auf dem Weg zum wichtigen und dringlichen Arzttermin, den ich letztes Jahr im November gebucht habe, als ich -

I've surrounded myself so entirely with supportive, proactive friends and collaborators that I forgot about the magic power this morning's naysayer unlocks in a person: Spite

Was gifted new slippers. Very squishy

Something something the history of humanity and domesticated creatures. From the wolf to the aurochs, for millennia we have gone into the wilderness and looked at fanged, horned, obsidian-eyed ultraviolence machines and said ‘if is not fren, why fren-shaped?’ And then made fren.

I am so HYPE for my dog walk later because I bought this 2.99 bag of peanuts in the shell after hearing crows adore them, my gang is going to be so happyyyyyy

SIPPING AIR wins 2nd place at the German Directors Guild Berlinale Pitch Event 🥰

After quite a hostile winter, I have to say the combined effects of green tea caffeine + seeing the SUN... peak experience

do i know any religious scholars who work on theodicy *across religions* including non-western, not only "world religions", including globally lesser known indigenous thought and belief across cultures?

tears in my eyes reading this

@davidgallaher.bsky.social hi! long time!!

10,000 matters satisfactory and laugh mouth constant open to everybody 🙌

The creative horizon is bright lately - and real life has intervened in the form of some unexpectedly heroic vet bills that insurance didn’t fully cover. If you’d like to support future films (and the continued royal standard of living of my dog), you can do so here: paypal.me/becauseivy

quit caffeine two years ago and now i had two cups of tea and can hear colors

the Directors Association let me bring my dog to one of their labs and he was so good and SO PHOTOGENIC

well i didn't phrase this well because yeah ok it was not "in my house" that Elivy got rear-ended while stopped at a traffic light

If you have to practice for any kind of performance (presentation, concert, stand up set, whatever), it's life changing to practice under duress! You will often be under some kind of duress! Practice your set while you're hungry and have to pee and the neighbor is drilling into the wall

HOW GOOD is Pro Bono. My life's happiness would double if there was a season 2 😭 Rarely had this much fun watching something. The title song and the way the use it within the episodes! A flawless piece of art

My Latest. Really proud of this one. Please watch in full screen with headphones or a good sound system! Made by humans. www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdL4...
