Possibly found my first chanterelle mushroom? Am I a real Swede now? 😂

Good boy Hubble, adhering to the no cancer rule! FFS, I don't think I've cried so much in years. What a rollercoaster of a week. I'm very grateful for our vet having the consult, CT+biopsy, and results in less than a week. Waiting was brutal.

I say he's the love of my life, and I mean it every time. ❤️

I don't cry over many things tbh, but the tears I have shed over every gray hair, every stiff movement, every time I see "senior" on his medical records... This dog has a steel grip on my heart. I've had him since he was 10 weeks, and he'll be 9 in October.

I love this dog so much more than I ever thought I could love anything. I know he can't be here forever, but I really, really, really want longer than this (if it's what is best for him ofc).

Cassini is doing better every day. She's started to play with Hubble on walks and even show some playfulness towards small toys (on walks). Still won't come out of her room, but she'll get there. Meanwhile, Hubble has his biopsy Tuesday and we're crossing all fingers, toes, & paws. Waiting sucks!

Cassini is slowly settling in, but she still has a lot of fear, particularly of men. The woods are the one place she seems to relax, so I can't wait until she's comfortable enough with Hubble & Tenn that we can do a pack hike!

One week until our new rescue pup, Cassini, arrives! I am so excited, naturally, I had to make a dorky announcement flyer.

Nooooo how am I late to everything ffs. But also, this made me so so so happy to read. Congrats on getting all of your stretch goals funded!!!! Amazinggg❤️

I've realized that I think loving pets is the only real unconditional love (for me). They never have malice or bad intent, and there is literally nothing in the whole world they could do that would make me stop loving them. Hubble & Tenn have my whole heart (and they know it! 😂)

I am once again playing the "did I plant that last year or is this a weed" game, especially since I introduced flowers and herbs I haven't grown before.

Spring in Stockholm is so beautiful (though about 20 min after I took this picture, it hailed)

Post a photo you took with no context to bring some zen to the timeline.

And this anthropocentric, shifting of the requirements for "true language" sounds all too familiar to the arguments used to dismiss gestured languages.
February 16, 2025 at 9:49 AM
Except - we often don't have the sensory capability to detect all the signals animals use to communicate (e.g infrasonic communication in elephants). It seems so arrogant to dismiss complex communication as "not language" before we've comprehensively understood it.

This week, I'm focused on knitting in the round. I attempted this fisherman's rib cowl like 20 times before realizing the pattern I was following was wrong 😬 This attempt is going better though

Another little break from doomscrolling: I'm teaching myself to knit! It helps me focus in meetings and also stay away from scrolling social media constantly. My first week knitting, I made these washcloth/practice squares. Full of mistakes, but I'm learning!

As a timeline cleanse, please enjoy these pics of my absolutely absurd dog, Hubble, enjoying greener times ❤️

This Saturday (July 29) at 2pm CEST, I'm doing a streamathon for Trans Empowerment Project, an intersectional, anti-racist charity providing direct aid to trans folks! I'll be playing games, doing science, and even building a robot on stream if we hit our goals! (Plz spread the word!)
