Covid and flu boosted! Expecting a weekend of feeling shitty, but it's always worth it.

INCREDIBLE.

Need to play it!!!

Remember this guy? It's HAPPY :)

IT'S THURSDAY!!! We won't get to watch this until tomorrow bc schedules, but OMG WE CANNOT WAIT!!!

Wow...

For whatever reason, all my plants have suddenly decided IT'S GO TIME!! I have numerous plants putting out new leaves and offshoots, every cutting i plant is rooting, everything is so lush!! I'm delighted!

Aaaa major adulting thing has gone so well!! Success!!! Celebration.gif AND a huge sigh of relief!! Now we can really start planning!! 🙌💪

does being trans in the US Right Now, w/ a queer romcom out in 2 weeks, feel like inching closer to a woodchipper in a clown costume? SURE. does this make it impossible to write promo posts? YES! am i forcing myself to throw my preorder link here before i 🧵 about this? BARELY: geni.us/1204-al-aut-am

MUAHAHA! My ultimate plan as GM has come to fruition! The party was hired by a Druid frantic because all the parrots had learned magic missile. The party interrogates the parrots and finally learns the ability to spellcast came when they fed on something across the river.

Went into this TXT concert vaguely a Soobin bias, and Yeonjin has just bias wrecking balled me right across the hall, DAMN

TXT TIME!!! NO ZOOM!! @itslineto.bsky.social did an amazing job with the seats!!

First time i open bluesky today and i see this. Wow. WOW. RUDE. 😳

Outstanding list, 14/10 for all! #3 almost had me spitting out my coffee 😂😂

So anyway, turns out plasma in menstrual blood can completely heal wounds in 24 hours. hudson.org.au/news/womb-to...

Cw: body issues Wouldn't it be wonderful to have a buy nothing exchange program for body parts? Here, take these tits i DNW and have fun. Bodies should be more like legos, with interchangeable parts as needed.

WHY ARE BRAS. :(((((((( I HATE EVERYTHING. why is finding a well-fitting bra akin to finding proof of life on Europa. 💀🤦

Just finished watching Queen's Gambit and holy shit, that's one of thee best tv shows i have ever seen. Everything about it is 😳😍. Will i be heading straight to ao3? Damn right i will.

Goodnight from me and smol doge. He is already in weekend mode.

The Beatles,Tina Turner, or Queen. We have been known to belt a number of those soungs really loud on the highway.

What Women Want. I listened to that soundtrack what mush have been hundreds of times. Also the 2005 Pride and Prejudice ST is wonderful.

if you want to understand tailoring, you only need to watch mid-century movies, when actors were dressed by tailors, not brands. in the 1944 film cover girl, gene kelly's suit drapes beautifully, moving with him, not against him. collar stays on his neck, even as he dances.

GOOD. we don't have D+ but if we did it would have been gone today.

I have made the major decision to set aside an ambitious knitting project i had planned for my mother (to prove to myself that i still love her) and replace it with just a shawl. Deep breaths. I don't need her approval anymore. It can just be a simple person to person relationship, and that's FINE.

I've done a very adult thing and now i am trying to keep my anxiety from taking over even though the thing went very well. No brain we do NOT need to incessantly go over every single word you said!! You can just let it be!! 🤦

Here are some nice mushrooms

TIL that a curfew is also a literal object! the word has its roots in the French couvrefeu - "cover fire" - and was used to denote a bell rung to warn people to cover their fires overnight to prevent the outbreak of flames between wooden houses. a curfew was a bell-shaped cover for embers!

Do I know anyone in the SC area who knows someone (or *is* someone) who wants to adopt two cats? I desperately need to find a home for my parents' two cats. I already have three, so I can't take them. They are boarding at their vet while I look, and I have to go home to PA in less than a week.

people who want other people to stay in sad little grey boxes forever and never be happy in their bodies or desires are villains and cowards and they may be winning right now but by god they will lose as water smooths stone and roots break it, because that fierce joy is roots and water and life

Humans are Space Orcs

I have spent the whole afternoon playing with plants in dire need of attention. I repotted 11 of them, bolstered the supports on 5, pruned + put a few offshoots in water, and made a new small pot of succulent leaves for new growth. Now i am exhausted but very pleased with the progress! 🌱🌿🪴

“Every period is a failed pregnancy” more like every period is a chance to regrow someone’s severed limb, you squeamish little cowards that’s a whole-ass human-producing chamber getting flushed

Anyway, scientists should get the fuck over being whiny little wretches who are scared of female bodies, because menstrual stem cells appear to be industrial printers compared to bone stem cell little desktop printers and you don’t have to drill into bones to get them. www.gavi.org/vaccineswork...

So, right now, the only reliable way to diagnose endometriosis is with exploratory surgery. But finally, real scientists (instead of male scientists), are on the job & of course they’ve identified multiple markers in menstrual blood that point to noninvasive testing. www.science.org/content/arti...

Tea drinking friends - I'm looking for tea places that make fun and interesting blends and that have a good decaf selection. Already a fan of harney & sons, but i want something new. 🥺

Omg Dylan's newest sounds DELICIOUS! (heh)

LOOK AT MY LONG NOODLE, I HAVE MISSED HIM!!! Happy birthday buddy!!

Hot damn, this week's Fix The News edition is a banger!! Feeling more hopeful about the future by a whole margin! I'm very mad that they moved to Substack, however am willing to overlook it THIS one time bc they do such incredible work.

Timeline cleanse! May you live in a world where your top concern is: will this hat I knitted fit my hedgehog?

@itslineto.bsky.social is in her bread making era and folks, each loaf is better than the last. Today's bread's crust is simply divine, dark golden, crackly, a little flakey. Perfection! I'm the luckiest wife!

It's such an amazing and thoughtful gift!!! And we get to share it!! So much fun! 💜💜

Great gourd! At the Arboretum in DC, it's definitely fall season and the gourds are heavy on the vines.

I did just yell at the end of this thread loud enough to startle the dog out of a dead sleep

This except of a review has made me so furiously angry that i am scream-reading it to @itslineto.bsky.social and repeatedly yelling HAVE YOU READ THE ACTUAL FUCKING BOOK at the writer. I dissected the shit out of Frankenstein for my thesis; this review has made flames appear on the side of my face.

Had a wonderful time today at my afternoon tea treat! So fancy! So delicious!! 🥰

Walking through downtown DC near the mall at 12.15 pm this afternoon and it was so eerily quiet and empty of people. In prime tourist season, on a 3 day weekend. It's almost as if national guard presence is bad for tourism.

Beautiful 1860s Victorian butterfly, which was used to store small packets of sewing needles on the underside of the wings. This was a collaboration between a London-based drapers company and a sewing needle manufacturer. On exhibit at Tatter Blue, a Brooklyn textile museum. IG tatterbluelibrary

Thanks everybody for the lovely birthday wishes! 💜💜 I had a very wonderful day of relaxing at home, playing a game, taking the dog for a romp, and then there was Crit Role and cake! Absolute bliss. Tomorrow will be part 2 of my bday gift, which is afternoon tea at a fancy hotel! 🥰

A magnificent birthday breakfast! A good way to start the day!

My birthday twin!! All respect to her.
