Hole-ey Fuck. I just found spider mites on the "lucky" clover. My response was to immediately plow down all the plants in the window box, including pink dandelions and yarrow. Y'all need to stop asking me for gardening advice, and the fact that I'm in two directories of people to follow in the "fediverse" in the gardening category is just embarrassing. Fingers crossed, send Celia prayers and wishes or whatever.
I need a tophat with silk Sarracenia flowers. I need a duct tape bodyform, and I can pull out some of the flowing clothes that don't fit, but make them fit better. And look better. Fuck, no sewing machine, no job, no sugar daddy. Um, I mean "patron". Or spouse, whatever. Damn, why didn't I ask more loudly for a sewing machine? Can I pull something together by October? Ugh, why do the best ideas come AFTER autumn comes?
But I think I know how I CAN potentially profit from my creativity, practice exposure therapy for my social anxiety, AND encourage myself to walk. Haunted walking tours of Cherry Street, the place I got my haunted moss from in the post that set me off on this Persephone kick. Just need to do some research, writing, and maybe score an interview or two. Make a costume, and a sign?

Eeeew just realized how this might sound, the mugs were going to be hand painted for me, like to remember some of my "flirty war cries", motivation. Not me looking for ways to profit from this. But the book, which would respect confidentiality, might include this journey because I'm doing really good, I want to show people how I used compassion alongside the tarot to ease the rage, but still stand strong and defend my boundaries. Money isn't my agenda, basic instructions are free on the blog.
Wait. I don't want to make snarky mugs. I'm writing a book already on how I use the tarot as a secular tool in my creative process. I can do an honest and compassionate discussion of my journey with him, in a relevant way. Check out the reference to VIII Strength on the forehead. Traditional tarot imagery shows a woman gently helping a lion with a painful tooth, this symbol above her head.
Current playlist, designed to keep me in the frame of mind I need for what I want to express in my art, includes The Sims soundtrack for the original game and the Unleashed expansion, Concrete Blonde, The Beatles, wolves howling in a thunderstorm in the mountains, and sounds of an urban street. Oh, and shamanic drums and Tibetan bowls.
Isn't it nice to know your platform of choice will never be accused of being a russian tool for spreading misinformation?
Isn't this beautiful? Something about the combination of colors and the composition stopped me dead in my tracks. Courtesy of @eppicsally.bsky.social (I got permission to share.) #LastFlowersOfSummer #Gardening
@Agatha This is how I feel about my blueberry bushes. The deer and birds are welcome to them. I can always go to the grocery store. They can’t.
PET scan results are in. The tumor has shrunk to 3.7 x 3.0 cm, max SUV 6.7, was 4.5 x 3.8,
max SUV 18.1.
IMPRESSION:
1. Interval decrease in size and activity of the right middle lobe
adenocarcinoma consistent with positive response to therapy.
2. There are no foci of abnormal FDG activity to suggest metastatic disease.
The BEST news on a Friday!! Surgeon appointment on the 10th to discuss results of PET and Stress Test. Surgery date TBD but is on the horizon! 💜
Nature, science, and art are super cool. Terribly sorry for the stuff that doesn't fit.
She/they cishet.
