I feel like this explains at least half of the books covered by @ifbookspod.bsky.social 🤔
Why nonfiction books are so boring.

As folks are watching Fit For TV, the documentary about The Biggest Loser, a few reflection questions:

How did The Biggest Loser teach you to think about people who are fatter than you?
How did it teach you to treat them?
Where have you unlearned those lessons? Where can you do more unlearning?

Little delights: my kitchen sink playlist just dropped Spice Girls' "Never Give Up on the Good Times" after NWA's 100 Miles and Runnin' and it works startlingly well, for my brain at least. Smooches, friends, I hope your Friday is upbeat! 😘

Just endometriosis things: wake up in the middle of the night with a brief wave of nausea and vertigo. Weird, stay awake for a while in case it's food poisoning? Nah. The ovary pain starts an hour later when just falling back asleep. Aha! Fall back asleep but have vivid lucid dreams until morning. 🤷🏻‍♀️

A whimsical D&D game, pizza, and my favorite cake with my friends. This was the best birthday party my 14 year old self could imagine. 🥰

‘Whelmed’ really means ‘capsized’ - the over and under were added later for effect. But you can be consolate: consoled and comforted. And gruntled too.
I can be overwhelmed or underwhelmed, but I can’t be whelmed.

Or, at least, I think theoretically I could but the way I have set up my life seems to have made it very difficult.

I would love to spend more of my life whelmed. Someone whelm me.

This little cutie is a gift for a coworker. I learned some things following the tutorial and have more ideas to try on the next one. Paint!

How I spend my Saturday mornings; this was my longest distance to date. Getting closer to attempting my first metric century!

Potentially unpopular GBBO opinion: I HATE the "Hollywood handshake" bit. Unless maybe Pru also gets to have a special award, but I'd rather neither.

HOW DID I NOT KNOW?! (obvious answer, too beguiled by platypuses to pay attention)
As an Aussie, never having seen one except on tv, the size of a kiwi still breaks my noodle.
My brain: a fluffy grapefruit, fit comfy into cupped hands

DM'd a chapter for my amazing group of players yesterday...I didn't have a mini big enough for the dragon they were fighting, but a plastic dinosaur worked quite well as a stand-in. Our rogue did get eaten at least once 🤔. Good times!

I know, for my own personal well-being, I should "lean in" to doing things like exercise, cleaning, and other tasks after I come home from work. But I keep thinking of what Ali Wong said: "I don't want to lean in. I want to *lie down*."

I used to think I wanted to have a big wedding if I ever got married, but then I realized I just wanted a party where my friends and family were obliged to say nice things about me

Painting update: a podcast I like recently requested art of space turtles. Mine are very silly and were super fun to make!

I'm not saying this is the best ducking thing I've ever knitted, but I'm not NOT saying that. Pattern by Tin Can Knits, inspiration absolutely not my own (I saw it somewhere online, if anyone knows the originator I'd love to give credit with my many thanks).
