I am legitimately not happy that MTG is getting death threats, and I also have to triage my concern and empathy these days so unfortunately there are a lot of people ahead of her in line and she helped put a lot of them there.

"All is lost" narratives are popular because people generally do not want to take action. Taking action is tiring so if all is lost, you are off the hook. Nothing is more seductive than not having to do anything.

And for #ArtAdventCalendar day 2, some fishing lures 😅 Variations on this design have trended on social media for a while. I used creme polishes for the bases, some with gradients, and topped them all with a sheer holographic magnetic polish. Then I added details using more creme polishes.

Send that text. Record that voice memo. Someone just sent me one that made me tear up. You never know what someone is going through. Though my thing is public, you never know. ❤️

Cut my hair during a migraine because I was desperate and could feel the length of my hair tugging at each root. You know, sane people things.

update;
2 months after my father passing, my MIL passed as well. I'm just so behind everything. I honestly need help so I can at least eat something this month. I need a break.

This is not just the pain, it's everything.
Everytime I'm thinking that it couldnt be worse, it is
I hate talking about this but here we go
My father will die in the next month or two. My car broke down and I live pretty far from his hospital, and I'm still paying my hearing aids. I'm just- idk. I'm tired. I hate hate hate asking for help, but I can't do anything atm.

Reflecting on the value of gratitude, one of my favorites. I named this balloon “Infinitude”, a contraction of “Infinite Gratitude”. The pic shows the dedication expressing my gratitude to Benoit Mandelbrot, but really it’s to all the scientists and artists who help us see and understand the world.

WHALE WHALE WHALE
what do we have here?
Coming back from vacation to some good news!

The first baby whale of the 2025-2026 North American right whale calving season was spotted Nov 28 near South Carolina.

Mom is Champagne (ID #3904) and its her 2nd documented calf. What joyful news for a species with 384 whales remaining.

My husband is lovely but... wtf is this exactly? (Hint: I know exactly what it is):

I'm talking about something and he'll interject that I'm wrong abt something. Not rudely, neutral. I'll look it up and im almost always right, but if I try to show him... 1/2
