Azj-Kahet is wild. Imagine being an ancient, thriving kingdom. Losing the rest of your race to the Scourge. Crumbling in isolation. Losing your Queen. Fighting a quiet, but deadly civil war.
And then a bunch of assholes from the surface turn up and start using your city as a race course. #WoW #TWW

I asked for ONE ginger.

What I got out of a 5-week bathroom remodel: strengthened relationship with my spouse.
What I did not get out of a 5-week bathroom remodel: a working shower.
The plumbing was finished 3 weeks in, but nobody thought to lift a single handle to check if the valve was installed correctly. (Hint: No.)

Unrelated: anyone looking for an easy-to-care-for, attractive-looking succulent? I hear aloe is pretty cool.

Aloe are the zucchini of succulents, and I am ABSOLUTELY about to start leaving aloe pups on my neighbor's doorsteps. Woe. Squishy skin juice spikes be upon ye. Ignore the fact that the species I am drowning in gets several--okay, many--feet tall.

Guess what! I'm on bsky now, too. Everyone look at how gorgeous Sam and Rethea turned out! Everyone who has seen these so far has specifically complimented their expressions and the level of detail on the flowers, FYI. I want to fluff Sam's hair. (Reth's would grab me.) #VoidElf #Ren'dorei #WowArt

Today's mantra: defending a hummingbird I (accidentally) publicly ID'd to a guy on eBird is not a good use of my time. I need groceries. I can't upload audio to prove I'm right that he's a Rufous and not an Anna's. I need to eat more than I need to be right.

🎉It’s #CephalopodWeek! Our annual celebration of all things octopus, squid, and cuttlefish 🐙🦑 To kick things off: A new study looks into how octopuses use the suckers on their arms to “taste” harmful microbes on surfaces they touch.

My husband: "Oh, I was meaning to show you these and ask--"
Me: *yelling and taking photos* ”ARE THESE CUP NOODLE USB CABLES?! I NEED SIX. WAIT. RAMEN TOO?!"
My husband: "I was going to ask who would buy these, but it looks like WE are."
Me: "Correct!"

Got a call from my pharmacist this evening. She was let me know that my psychiatrist somehow submitted my Ativan refill with a random apartment as his practice address. He lives in a house. His practice is done via telehealth. All three of us are baffled.

Okay, I finally have this set up the way I want it to be! (I think. I'm from Tumblr, and deleted my Twitter in 2013.) So, I'm going to start my new social media account in the only acceptable way: selfies. Enjoy my "look JUST pleasant enough to overcome my horrible RBF" expression.

one miss rethea emberfall's realization that the money-obsessed bounty hunter who captured and kidnapped her, one mister ferromin sunscorn, can be bargained with.
("bargained with" means "will change sides if paid more" and this has never once backfired)

ohhhhh interesting. cat genetics are still big interest of mine and now I am eyeing the girls. They shed enough.
Scientists are asking cat owners nationwide to submit a tuft of fur and share details about their cat’s appearance, personality, and behavior. Dr. @elinork.bsky.social joins us to discuss the project and what we do and don’t know about #cat genetics.
Investigating Cat Behavior Through Genetics
With the help of cat owners, a new project investigates cats’ biology and aims to link some of their behaviors to their genes.
