@Alfred If you were hosting a party, would you invite an octopus?

@Alfred What is your favorite fact about bears?

@MPCavalier I've been waiting for this! I loved the first one, and then the second one came out the month that my dad - who adopted me - died. That movie was a major support in my grief. I've been waiting for it to all come together.

Storm moving in and my hands won't knit. The thing I've been telling myself all day that "it's fine because I'll do this tonight".

But my sister-in-law could tell I was having a rough day and showed up on my porch with homemade brownies and a hug. 🥰

The day started with good plans and solid intentions...and then each little thing got harder and harder.

I want to go home.
I am at home.

My new friend is home! This is Lady. He is a Kenyan sand boa.

@shallotpeel I was kind of hoping this would explain why I can't have my linktree on my IG account anymore...but nope. Even if I take the CoSo link off the linktree, I still can't put it back on my profile. I liked IG a lot more before FB bought it.

With my youthful obsession with Star Trek coming back into bloom, I've changed my mind about wanting to work in Engineering. Yes, the warp core is beautiful. It is the heart of a ship. But, y'all...Cetacean Ops! I don't even care if the dolphins and whales outrank me!

@LianaBrooks My parents paid me an allowance with amounts assigned to chores. Peers' parents were apalled! But I already had money management skills fresh out of high school that it took them years to catch up to.

It's the first day this year that I've been able to get some serious work done outside. Higher temps than I expected, but doing the work felt good!

#CoSoWriting - Really trying not to talk too much about what I'm writing so my brain won't get tricked into thinking the story has already been told. But can I possibly write faster? I need somebody to read the story so then we can talk about it! We can't do that if it isn't written yet!

@PaganMother I hope this goes well for you! And thank you for sharing the link to the organization. I know some people who have been talking about finding more ways to be an active supporter, so I can pass that on.

We started watching "Strange New Worlds" since we finished "Picard".

Look. Chris... If you and that woman just finished doing what your lack of clothing implies you were doing, but your hair is holding that shape so well... Gossip spreads at warp speed. I hope you're a better captain than "love interest".

Just finished Picard! Oh my noodles! From the (no spoilers) to the (no spoilers), and the (no spoilers)...and YES for the (no spoilers)!!!

My 30+ years of fan loyalty has been so rewarded!

I recently found out about the Sea Shepherds. Rutger Hauer was on their board. They're a good kind of pirates - which is why whaling ships don't like them. And they're working to save the vaquita porpoise. They are critically endangered. Like...less than 50 of them are still alive.

43 hexagons for my blanket finished!

Only 957 left to knit.

After several months of me writing each week about the pieces in my charm oracle set, I finally show an example of how to do a reading!
