My name is James and I use this forum mostly for happy-making things. This is not the place I do my "make the world better" stuff. Therefore, I mute, block, and don't follow people who harsh that vibe. Nothing personal; use bluesky however you want! I do the same.

The sweater you’re knitting is supposed to be 10 stitches to an inch, but you’re only getting 7? Problematic gauge gap.
Angry person yelling at chill person who is responding by being calm, which makes the angry person even more mad? Problematic rage gap.
Prisoners keep escaping because you put the bars too far apart? Problematic cage gap.

I had so many plans today and instead of read NIghtwing comics then wrote Dick Grayson fanfic. Uh. But at least I also went to the grocery store?

Yesterday at work, I felt something poke my butt. Turned around, there was a dog, nose at butt level, who, when I turned around and spread my hands to demand WHAT, pushed its head into my head to give itself pets. Which, fine, I guess that might as well happen. ;-)

Middle of the night pains got me taking a gummy; was not awake enough to really check but maybe two were stuck together? Am now out of bed, six hours later, and are my eyes open? I don't know. You don't know.

Everything is stupid and annoying and wrong and I cannot find anything on AO3 I want to read and I probably need a nap but I've had naps twice today already and this is the worst part about not feeling well! Not tired enough to sleep again, no energy to do anything else.

Very excited by the number of times I have seen the Least Weasel on my dash this morning. Clearly I have curated my list properly. Good work, everyone!

If you’re wondering what a “least weasel” is, they absolutely live up to the name. This is the least amount of animal you can have that can still meet the bar for “is weasel”

Meet our newest patient here at the Alaska Raptor Center, a Northern Pygmy Owl named King Owlbert by his rescuers. Owlbert arrived with a drooping wing, making flight difficult. We’ve given him a supportive wing wrap, plenty of tasty mice, and time to heal. #small #owls #adorable
