Reggie-Wirt and Pickle-Gregory for Halloween.

I'd like to make a wearable teapot for Pickle-Gregory too.

Pickle said we had to go over garden walls but I'm not sure that is right because everyone else just went around.

Oh it is because of our costumes!

Survival found there are at least 196 uncontacted Indigenous groups worldwide. Half of them could be wiped out in 10 years if nothing is done. Take action!

Take action for uncontacted peoples!

Uncontacted Indigenous peoples’ forests are being invaded and ripped up to extract resources and make way for roads and ranches, by those who value profits over human rights and survival. Send an ema...

Because it feels relevant as we continue to evaluate the media and our representatives’ statements, my favorite way to identify the active vs. passive voice.

A post by Rebecca Johnson:
“I finally learned how to teach my guys to ID the passive voice. If you can insert "by zombies" after the verb, you have passive voice.”

A tumblr respond from mightymur:
“The final, brilliant word on passive voice.
"She was killed [by zombies.]"<--passive
"Zombies killed [by zombies] her." <-- active”

Buckland Abbey staircase

#NationalTrust #NationalTrustBucklandAbbey #BucklandAbbey #stairs #staircase #geometry #geometrical

A bird's-eye view down the centre of a staircase, spiralling down in an odd shape, almost like half a semi circle. 3 sides are straight, the fourth is curved. The stairs are carpeted in dusky red over wooden floors. The tops of the bannisters are a rich wood while the vertical railings are white, carved and elegant.

Undiscovered Scotland @undisscot.bsky.social · Sep 10

Stobo Kirk, south-west of Peebles in the Scottish Borders. It is one of the oldest standing churches in Scotland, largely dating back to around 1120, and was built near the place where St Mungo is said to have baptised Merlin. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot...

#Scotland #ScottishBorders

Stobo Kirk. The image shows a view from a slightly higher level of the church, which is finished in grey harling and is in bright sunlight. The tower is at the right-hand end and the rest of the church extends to the left and away from us. There are buildings in the valley beyond the church and fields and woods climb in the background.

Wilting cafe flowers.

#cafe #decor #cafedecor #flowers #rose #cosmos #cutflowers #vase

A portrait close-up of a wilted pink rose, white cosmos and another white, many-petalled, orb-ish white bloom. They are trying to remain upright in a glass bottle against a grey wall with a pale grey picture creating a shadow that runs down behind them. In contrast to the subject matter and wall colour choice, they are lit with an optimistic yellow light.

Stairwell corner with plants and picture hook.

#plants #decor #indoorplants #peacelily #bostonfern #fern #yellow #green

A shot into the corner of yellow painted walls. On the short side is a white plant pot hanging from the wall by unseen means, almost obscured by the spray of peace-lily leaves and drooping Boston fern fronds. On the longer wall the sun shines a bright buttery yellow at the top, grading to a deep, almost burnt orange shade at the bottom. The leaves cast elegant shadows on the wall that is blank but for a single, empty, picture hook.

Today I wrote about a general tendency to accept atrocious premises, and the need to reject fascism's false choices in order to find expansive and imaginative paths forward.

Breaking the premise, embracing the obstacles, pursing everything.

We actually aren't constrained into atrocious premises by thought exercises. Obstacles are a reason to fight, not an excuse to quit. Our friends and neighbors aren't distractions..

The Cute Petite plush series is a great source of faces and unique fluffy hoods.

Sheep Antu cute beast 1 12th scale ball jointed doll with Star Bat face and fluffy hood. An anthro style beast girl with green hair to match her dress and purple eyes to match her hood. Her "bored with you" expression compliments her shiny hooves and pointed bat ears. One hand rests on a wooden staff while the other waves at you flippantly. You are dismissed.

Goodies arrived from
vivschwarz.bigcartel.com today. The day after International Cat Day too!
Thanks @vivschwarz.bsky.social

A copy of the book "animals with tiny cat" by viv schwarz placed upright over the cardboard envelope in which it arrived. On the side of the envelope is a hand painted cat by the author with it's eyes closed and tongue out in a smug looking blep. On the table in front is a cut-out cat curled up and looking at a nearby Sylvanian Families black cat baby (Reggie Midnight) whilst six other Sylvanian cat babies, from various families, gather nearby to look at the set up.

WoW is a huge part of my life in much the same way as described in this thread. Though I'm still playing/living in that world.

So many memories! My friend teaching me how to swim in a pond on Teldrassil. A complete stranger guiding me for hours from Teldrassil to Westfall to get my seal form.

A long, rambling and somewhat melancholy about World of Warcraft, because, I don't know why. Why not?

So I've not played WoW for... must be getting on for 2 years maybe? Before the most recent expansion for sure. WoW was My Game for well over 10 years.

Mudkip is hungry

A view over the corner of a PC desk, the computer screen just visible in one corner, nintendo gaming gear blurred in the background behind the jutting corner of a monitor stand. On the front edge of the stand is a tiny Mudkip pokemon model on all fours, one back leg kicking up. Mudkip's open, smiling mouth is around the corner of a paper note on the stand. It Looks enthusiastic about the papery snack.

I need y'all to get it out of your heads that Indigenous societies were primitive and simplistic.

That's colonial thinking, perpetuated to justify the creation of the colonial state in order to "uplift" and "educate" Indigenous folks

It's pure BS

I have to wonder how often this corner of the bank gets used. Does it just sit there like some forgotten shrine?

#bank #phone #landline #cordedphone #oldtech #oldschool #vintage

A corner of a bank. One wall is white, the other green while the strip light on the white ceiling is framed in green. Two soft grayish green stools are gathered underneath a tall hanging box shelf that is being used as a booth for a button dial phone with corded handset. Three air conditioning controls are lined up with the top of the booth.
