A section of grass, with a hole in the middle. There are several well-worn paths radiating out in a rough star shape from the hole. These are the desire paths of Columbian Ground Squirrels in northern British Columbia.

this is where I post from
A garbage bin on the banks of a river, with the words “STRESS CONTAINER” on the side. It’s a stylish and hip garbage bin, but a garbage bin nonetheless.

Today’s small self-care: taking a moment to admire (and photograph) the flowers by the curb.
A puffy pinkish-purple flower in the shade. A vibrant but slightly wilty puffy magenta flower in the bright sunlight.

Topical text conversations I have with my wife*

*(who may or may not be a cat)
Text conversation between two people: Today 12:07 PM A: I saw ANOTHER cybertruck this morning - on Marine just on the Burnaby side of Boundary Road. Silver this time. (Eyeroll emoji) B: Keep your distance, it could EXPLODE AT ANY TIME (A reacts to this with a laughing emoji) A: it was going the opposite direction, into Vancouver so l was safe B texts 3 emojis: a truck, an explosion, and fire B: Oh no, my cybertruck is burning! Someone spray paint "RESIST" on it! Read 12:09 PM

Case in point:
A cybertruck in a parking lot. It has a white wrap / paint job, and has been decorated with a Rivian logo and the letters R I V I A N on the back. I don’t think that’s going to work.

A graphic on how to disable a police Spot robot. Text reads: According to @LenKusov: "PSA: if you or someone nearby are being brutalized by a police Spot robot and can get a hand or something underneath, grab this handle and yank it forward. This releases the battery, instantly disabling the robot. Keep your hands away from joints, Spot WILL crush your fingers." There is then a picture of the robot lying on its back, and a hand pulling out the battery pack.

You laugh, but this is what Richard Dreyfuss (in Close Encounters of the Third Kind) would have eventually made with potatoes, given enough time.

If you see this, post a magic user! ✨

Several years ago I crocheted this Vivi the Black Mage doll for a SF/F fan convention. Might remake another, see how my style has changed.
A crocheted doll of Vivi Ornitier, the black mage from Final Fantasy IX. He’s wearing a blue jacket with gold edging & ornamentation over green & and white striped pants. On his head is an oversized brown wizard hat. His face is obscured by black, & his eyes are big and yellow. I’m very proud of him.
