Random shite that occurs to my magpie brain, including (but not limited to) cats, fermentation, seasons, books, pots, and the tremendous importance of being kind. Possible risk of TLDR; ooh! Squirrel! She/her.
Beautiful winter skies here this evening. #glimmers

people say “you need to start living in the real world” but they forget that the real world includes lupines and lightning bugs and ginger beer and starlight and sea coasts and Renoir paintings and Rachmaninoff’s piano concertos and fog banks and foxes playing in snow.

Went to @heligangardens.bsky.social’s Night Garden yesterday - just blissful. Definitely recommend if you’re in the south-west.

Wet-on-wet watercolour background for a flow for the week - going to use black pen to draw a timetable so things hopefully stop falling off my radar and I have a better sense of what happens when…

Listening to BBC Radio 3 Unwind, which feels like a super-long episode of Late Junction, in an entirely good way.

Word of the day is ‘suspiring’, from the 16th century: a deep sigh.

(Covers exhaustion, relief, sadness, collapses onto the sofa, or whatever fits the bill).

Okay but hear me out:

A nighttime bookstore in which the only lighting comes from lanterns, tea is served to all who enter, there is an emotional support owl in each section, and a buy one / get one free sale occurs during every full moon.

Squiggly: (Adjective)

‘Consisting of a line or lines that curve and twist in a way that is not regular’

This is when a tree favours one-sided lateral growth instead of apical dominance, which is sideways growth from one side alone

Word of the day is ‘hibernacle’ (18th century): a hibernating animal’s winter retreat.

I believe it works on a human level too.

Can someone explain to me how putting a rainbow in a classroom is “indoctrination,” but the Ten Commandments isn’t?
