My name is James and I use this forum mostly for happy-making things. This is not the place I do my "make the world better" stuff. Therefore, I mute, block, and don't follow people who harsh that vibe. Nothing personal; use bluesky however you want! I do the same.
Middle of the night pains got me taking a gummy; was not awake enough to really check but maybe two were stuck together? Am now out of bed, six hours later, and are my eyes open? I don't know. You don't know.

Me: I'm going to find something on AO3 to read while I knit a hat!
*two hours later*
Me: I have read so many things and forgot to ever pick up my knitting.

I really enjoy when Mexican restaurants say the breakfast burrito is made with potatoes, and it's french fries. \o/

Everything is stupid and annoying and wrong and I cannot find anything on AO3 I want to read and I probably need a nap but I've had naps twice today already and this is the worst part about not feeling well! Not tired enough to sleep again, no energy to do anything else.

Very excited by the number of times I have seen the Least Weasel on my dash this morning. Clearly I have curated my list properly. Good work, everyone!

If you’re wondering what a “least weasel” is, they absolutely live up to the name. This is the least amount of animal you can have that can still meet the bar for “is weasel”

Meet our newest patient here at the Alaska Raptor Center, a Northern Pygmy Owl named King Owlbert by his rescuers. Owlbert arrived with a drooping wing, making flight difficult. We’ve given him a supportive wing wrap, plenty of tasty mice, and time to heal. #small #owls #adorable

If you only find one ant in the kitchen, it is an isolated antcident.

I suddenly remembered that Tootsie Rolls used to be a big size, and not just these tiny mini things they sell now. Mmmmmm, Giant Tootsie.

Happy Halloween!

This piece isn't quite done, but it fit the spooky vibes of the season so I'm posting the WIP.

Oh my god Mr Pibb is back?!?!?! And there is a zero sugar version?!?!? They say the formula is re-done, so god only knows if it's as good as it used to be. It used to be The Best Evar (after RC Cola.)

So the internet is re-writing the poem of Ozymandias into different forms. AND YET did all you people do your readings in high school English. I bet you did not. And yet HERE WE ARE.

Ozyman, Ozyman-
dias does what no mortal can
and his works? are they there?
no, but maybe still despair
This is just to say

I have looked on
the works
that were in
the desert

and which
you were probably
thinking
would still stand

Forgive me
they were trunkless
so vast
and so old
Once upon a desert sandy
As through winds the trav'ling man he
Spied the face of Ozymandy
Lying, simply lying there
Suddenly there was some writing
Pon the plinth that he was sighting
That the sand and time were blighting
Quoth the statue, "Now despair"

Quoth the statue, "Now despair"
There was an old man you could gaze
At his works in despair in a daze
If you looked upon them
And were mere mortal men
'Ozymandias mighty', it says
My name is Pagliacci, Clown of Clowns. Look on my works, ye doctors; I despair.
