A few of my favorite things: cats, music, books, Genshin, Star Rail, Final Fantasy, lilacs, the beach, the smell of rain, and thunderstorms

Welcome new followers! I’m pretty quiet around here most of the time. I mostly post cat photos and photos from walks through my neighborhood in the summer. I have been known to share music, books, video games, and movies. I look forward to getting to know you. 😊

Well, yesterday I fully ended the long-distance relationship. He’s too entangled with his abusive gf, and clearly not ready to face reality or get safe. I told him friendship is good, but I can’t be someone else because of her crazy shit. It’s a shame. He’s pretty amazing. 🥺

The vast majority of trauma survivors I've ever met don't want anything "special." They want the opportunity to find out who they are without the ghosts of their past polluting their thoughts, beliefs, & decisions-- autonomy that the normies take for granted.

No more; no less.

Sleep is eluding me at the moment. Again. I am so over this.

One of my favorite Ae'o shots (in fact, I have a 24" x 18" float mount of it up on my living room wall), a matched pair feeding in the shallows of Kealia Pond NWR. Inspired to post by @mollybangles.bsky.social and her curlews! :) 📷🦉🌿

For many abuse survivors, our pets are more than a source of emotional support. They might be the one reliable source of unconditionally safe & affectionate physical touch we've experienced--maybe our entire life.

Guess what’s back!

Yup. Insomnia. 😫

I hate this. 🥺

I finally had the talk with him, and it went really well. He was receptive and interested in resources I sent him. He thanked me for sharing my perspective, and admitted that he might be in denial. He said I’m a good one to have on his side. I said I’ll be there as long as he’ll let me. 🥰

Still no talk. I’m frustrated. Hoping to the opportunity tomorrow or Thursday.
October 8, 2025 at 3:12 AM
Well, I did not get to talk with him today. His youngest is sick, and he’s of course focused on her. Timing, I think, is crucial. I’m hoping to get this chat done this week.

Mars was the Roman god of war.
That’s why we say ‘martial arts,' ‘martial law,' and 'court martial.'

Marshall was the Roman god of designer fashion at discount prices.
That’s why we have Marshall’s.
