my therapist: 'the hot sea devil' isn't real, it can't hurt you
the hot sea devil:
Actor Samuel Oakley as the Sea Devil ‘Tide’ in a promotional image from ‘The War Between The Land and The Sea’. He is a very attractive man and the new Sea Devil design makes this apparent in a way that reminds me of the Handsome Squidward meme.

Tilly isn’t responding well to the clocks changing. Can you believe dinner is nearly an hour late and *nobody* seems to care?

do ittttttt! but be warned that puppy-rearing is really hard work 😮‍💨 i skipped all that by adopting tilly. i’m not an “adopt don’t shop” type but i do think adopting an adult dog is easier. i get all the cuddles and adventures without the hard work ☺️

But all of my unsolicited advice aside… I really hope you get this dog. They can be a handful but I know I wouldn’t be around today if it wasn’t for the role my dogs have played in my life.

(Pictured: my old dog Scruff, a purebred Norfolk Terrier, and my current dog Tilly, a mystery rescue mutt)

taking time to smell the flowers (possibly because someone peed on them earlier)
Tilly, a small terrier mix, sniffs a purple flower on a bush that’s spilling over the path. She’s wearing a harness with a rainbow strap and is on a blue lead.

ever relevant Haus of Decline comic
A four panel comic. The first panel is a title card reading “Steven Universe vs Hitler”, it shows Steven’s smiling face and Hitler’s angry face. In the second panel, Steven asks Hitler “what if you could change your mind, Hitler?” In the third panel, Hitler looks back furiously. In the fourth panel, one of the other Steven Universe characters (idk what they’re called, I’m an adult) says to Steven “I think we’re going to have to kill this guy, Steven” while comforting him with a hand on his shoulder. Steven looks sad and says “damn”.

the #succulents have taken over!
Perhaps around a hundred small succulents in nursery pots, plus a few larger ones and a couple of cacti. The plants and the wooden table they are on are wet because they have just been watered.

tilly enjoying the sun 🌞 i can’t believe i’ve only had her just over two weeks, she has completely changed my life. i’ve had a pretty rough time lately but right now i can finally feel the spring coming.
a small dog, lying on a brown sofa in a sunny spot. the dog has a white body with brown patches, a brown face, and alert ears, with a slightly scruffy coat. a plaid blanket in muted tones is draped over the sofa, adding a cosy touch to the scene. shadows from the sunlight create a warm, relaxed atmosphere.

i bought a sheepskin for tilly to lie on when she’s in my room. it’s on the bed until i place it properly but i think it has already won her approval.

Dr Naomi Wolf’s best moments
I endorsed Pres Donald Trump yesterday. Today all day my phone froze, the cursor on my computer started wondering around the desktop, and my wifi continually disconnected. All coincidentally. Terrifying. Also confirms/explains the conversation I overheard in a restaurant in Manhattan 2 yrs ago in which an Apple employee was boasting about attending a top secret demo: they had a new tech to deliver vaccines w nanopatticles that let you travel back in time. Not kidding It was amazing to go to Belfast, which does not yet have 5G, and feel the earth, sky, air, human experience, feel the way it did in the 1970s. Calm, still, peaceful, restful, natural. QRT of a post from “Stanley Bear” where he (a teddy bear) is photographed helping out at a UK vaccine clinic. He is wearing a teddy bear sized mask and hi-vis jacket. Dr Wolf responds: No! No!!

I think Levi’s have a different definition of “essentials” to me…

finished setting up my winter succulent storage to beat the frost! it’s modest but it will do 💚

i took this opportunity to do a count… i’m up 92 succulents 😱
A small stack of metal shelves filled with succulents of various sizes & varieties. The top shelf is mostly filled with small echeveria with the exception of a tall & somewhat misshapen cactus.
