Mars Volta - Deloused in the Comatorium
The album atwork for Deloused in the Comatorium by Mars Volta. It’s essentially some kind of lab with bits and bobs everywhere but on a table in the center of the image is a white plate with a golden head on it. The head is looking toward to the top left of the image with a ray of light shining from its mouth.

The Innocence Test Heathen (68) You like to have a good time, but know when to reign yourself in. Good for you. Just don’t make too many bad choices.

Time for a light therapy update!

Still going well despite a bump in month 2 (unrelated to therapy) and the last few days which have been awful (also unrelated to therapy) and it’s still working even if I'm not consistent.

The biggest change is that I maintain control of my pattern, which is huge!
A screenshot of my light therapy tracking chart, showing a steady improvement in my waking time of about 2 hours from the day I started nearly 4 months ago, then it degrades by an hour for ~20 days, then improves again by an hour for ~10 days, then degrades again by an hour for another ~10 days before the last few days which is just a mess but that’s because there’s lots of stuff going on and I am struggling to fall asleep rather than simply to wake.

LOL I don’t think so 😂
A screenshot of the header of an email I received from Experian, implying that my eligibility for credit cards has improved, except it doesn’t actually say MY eligibility has improved, and it’s very very unlikely it has.

I haven’t seen a swastika in the wild in this part of the country since the 80’s, and never on somebody’s door. Until today, the day after the only Union Jack appeared in this very multi-cultural area.

I am fucking disgusted. This fascist Labour government have not just enabled but encouraged this.
A photo of somebody’s front door with a poorly scribbled swastika and the words “fuck off” surrounding it, large enough to take up most of the bottom panel of the door.

The fucking state of this shit.. 😱
Emily @emilyselkie.bsky.social I feel like I'm the only person here who actually agrees with @garyseconomics.bsky.social Toph it's a bit of a moot point as I would be surprised if anyone who is happy to call racists racist to their faces actually encounters them in their lives and would be willing to have a meaningful discussion. arnie @arnie.bsky.social emily a friend of mine got spat at in the street how exactly do u think any meaningful discussion is going to come from that? Emily @emilyselkie.bsky.social I'm sorry to hear that, that's abominable! Personally I would go with "what the hell do you think you're doing?! That is not ok!". Called them out without name calling, wasn't that hard.

The absolute state of this guy 🤪

He replied then blocked me instantly so I didn’t get to not read what he said and reply to it flippantly anyway 😅
Raj. S. Kumar @rsk-1m.bsky.social I know but I like to forgive. I keep thinking of Keir as the person he used to be.... "THAT” left wing lawyer who protected the rights of people. I know there is good in his heart but he's over complicating the strategy to win another GE. He's made mistakes, I hope he can apologise. Kathryn de Plume wka@kathryndeplume.com 🖕 forgive this Raj. S. Kumar @rsk-1m.bsky.social Sort your ADHD please... Just because you've got a problem doesn't mean you have to act like a child. Kathryn de Plume @kathryndeplume.com Fuck off you ableist condescending prick. Raj. S. Kumar @rsk-1m.bsky.social See that's your ADHD. Having a condition whereby you think you are entitled to more than the rest of society and that "we" should make allowances for your poor behaviour and attitude because of your statement shows how spoilt you are. It's okay Kathyrn I'll 🚫 you. You're 10th of the day Kathryn de Plume @kathryndeplume.com Hark as I tell thee how many fucks I give:

Imma turn this frustration into motivation. Bite me, life.
A photo of me standing in front of my sofa in my den, with my hands on my hips looking upwards, wearing my shortest little black dress because if I’m gonna be angry I might as well look good doing it.

A photo of a pair of shoes tied together by the laces and casually hanging over the wire of a telegraph pole, set against the backdrop of a beautiful blue sky with some wispy clouds for good measure.

And check this one out.. looks like the Home icon has some kind of status making it blue, right?

NOPE! It’s just the Reminders widget icon on the desktop behind it!

Genius 😬
A photo of part of my macOS screen showing a couple of icons from the control center. The night shift icon is gray because it’s switch off, but you could be forgiven for thinking the home icon is “enabled” because it’s blue - but it’s actually the Reminders widget icon shining through it and being magified to fill the entire icon.

I had to snap a photo of my screen because macOS hides the widgets, so pardon the poor quality - but glass corners on a non-retina screen are so ugly it hurts. They don’t even look that great on a retina screen.

We tinkerin’ tonight 👩‍💻
A capture from my den camera. I’m sitting at my desk which is against the far end wall to the top of the photo, and my other desk (with my gaming PC on it) is to my right. You can also see my sofa at the bottom of the photo, and the door to the rest of the house to the right. The room is dimly lit with a pink lamp and a blue lamp, and although you can’t see it in this still image, the main light is reacting to my music.

I’ve got at least 5-6 boxes of these 😆
A photo of a cardboard box containing many (probably 40 or so) miniature replica F1 cars in their display cases. A photo of a miniature replica of Jarno Trulli’s 2004 Renault R24 F1 car in light blue and yellow.

A selfie of me sitting at my desk in my den. I’ve got long (graying) blonde hair and dark brown eyes. I’m wearing a black strappy dress with a black choker, and my “signature" K necklace. Beside me you can see part of my desk with my glasses and case, iPhone charger, and a pink scrunchie on it. My chair has trans flat coloured shawl (which was crocheted by one of my kiddos) draped over it. Behind me you can see one of my shelving units with my homelab equipment on it and a bunch of other random stuff, mostly covered by a large trans flag.

My son bought me this set for my birthday just over a month ago, and after the day that today was this seemed the perfect time to just dissociate for a while and build it 🥰

A photo of the STS Enterprise strapped on a Boeing 747 at Stanstead Airport, England, in 1983. It’s a sunny day with clear skies, and people are walking freely around it - which would obviously never happen today 😅
