For the new people I have met here (hi!), I make clothes. Dresses and the occasional corset, mostly. It's a matter of mental hygiene. I sew because punching people in the face is frowned upon.
So prepare for the occasional work-in-progress #wip post, it helps me with self-accountability.

Dear hivemind,
I'm thinking about making the move from Spotify to Tidal. Family subscription.
Thoughts? Caveats? Support? Ideas?

I know, everybody should leave X, but I think an exception should be made solely for Joyce Carol Oates so she can keep wounding Musk's withered soul on his own site and he can't do a thing about it.

The dementia risk aside, my Dad had shingles about ten years before he died, and he was in pain until his very last days. Go get your vaccine.
A new study shows people who experienced multiple episodes of shingles had a higher risk of dementia for several years after the second outbreak, compared with those who had it only once.
How a childhood virus can contribute to dementia later and what you can do
A new study suggests that the shingles vaccine may help prevent dementia by reducing the risk of varicella-zoster virus reactivation

good parts did you first suffer love for me?

Benedick: Suffer love! a good epithet! I do suffer love
indeed, for I love thee against my will.

‘Great lords, wise men ne'er sit and wail their loss,
But cheerly seek how to redress their harms.
What though the mast be now blown overboard,
The cable broke, the holding-anchor lost,
And half our sailors swallow'd in the flood?
Yet lives our pilot still.’

Whispers the o'er-fraught heart and bids it break.
