POV: you’re the video I’m hunched over editing on my iPad bc my laptop won’t play anything
Vic, a non-binary brown-skinned gremlin with a grown out mid top fade, wearing white glasses frames covered in black cats playing with red yarn. They’re hunched over the device with a blanket on their shoulders and a slight smirk on their face. A white shelf with various baskets is in view above them, with two tiny pink/orange-haired trolls swinging from a basket by their hair. There is a small light above them hanging from the ceiling, which is off as sufficient light is flooding in from outside.

Celiac is only the most recent of my worries, but I’d like anyone to read this and tell me people shouldn’t be given more sick days when theyve got disabilities like this going on
Summary Accidentally eating gluten can cause symptoms of celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Getting extra sleep is essential to recovering from gluten-related fatigue and brain fog. With these symptoms, you should also avoid tasks such as making critical decisions. It's common to have problems digesting milk and milk products after gluten exposure, so avoid dairy and any foods that you don't know for sure are safe. Be prepared for symptoms to last a few days or longer.

Already one thing to not be able to absorb nutrients, absolutely wild to temporarily be rendered unable to consume dairy
www.verywellhealth.com/recovering-f...
Skip Lactose-Containing Foods ( photo of glass milk bottle and cup on white background surrounded by caution tape) If you've experienced a severe exposure, you may temporarily become lactose intolerant. This means you have difficulty digesting the natural sugars in milk and dairy products. Lactose intolerance occurs because you digest dairy proteins with the very tips of your intestinal villi. When you ingest gluten, you can damage those villi. Lactose intolerance is common in people with celiac disease, especially among those newly diagnosed with celiac. However, many people report that they're better able to digest dairy again once they've followed a gluten-free diet for a while. This indicates that their villi can recover.

- Roxane Gay, 2015

black people, what are we doing for ourselves today to feel alive? nothing deserves the powers over us to render us lifeless day in and out
“[it is] traditional to try and destroy the black spirit. I don't want to believe our spirits can be broken. Nonetheless, increasingly, as a black woman in America, I do not feel alive. I feel like I am not yet dead.”

A short bit from *TBU* about corporate greed in the 1930s.

Context: this text is referencing the shifting cultural fabric of Detroit as black people were drawn to plentiful jobs in vehicle assembly
Book: The Black Utopians by Aaron Robertson Chapter: the promised land that wasn’t, page 51 “[…According to Fjord’s patronage system… pastors who wanted their parishioners to obtain decent jobs at] Fjord Motor Co. would need to limit their criticisms of [Henry] the industrialist. [Reverend Horace] White blamed these pastors for letting themselves become tools in the hands of "King Fjord." He accused Fjord of owning Detroit's black churches as surely as he owned any factory, diluting whatever salvific power they had left in an age marked by corporate greed, economic devastation, and the chronic suffering of the poor and oppressed. In later years, White's tenure as a Michigan state representative and head of the Detroit NAACP's housing commission gave Albert Jr. one of his early models of a leader in the Social Gospel tradition.”

Hey nerds, like the first draft of my card?
Light purple hand-drawn greeting card with a cutout of chopper’s pre-time-skip hat from one piece. His bowler-esque hat allows his reindeer horns and ears to poke out from the sides, and features an ‘x’ in the middle. The image shows text within and below the hat forming two phrases: ‘the one piece’s been real’ and ‘you have always been real’

yap yap something poignant about bright new growth in a cold dark world
A photo of a ‘zz raven’ plant surrounded by decor and home items. The dark-leaved plant, in a handmade brown-clack ceramic planter, has three new shoots with bright green leaves unfurling. These stems have been poking out for about a week now, and the leaves are just becoming individually visible. The planter is sitting on a small drawer set adorned with walnut stain and white paint. To the left of the plant is a small empty decorative cage with bees on it; cutout paper people are holding hands sitting on the protruding bees. Behind the plant is a Velcro ball dart game from daiso, like a “break open for dopamine emergency” case until it finds a home. On the right, some tools and hardware can be seen leaving the frame.

While my turtle may be the equivalent of a sleepy newborn baby living in a water world

he requires the maintenance of a sleepy newborn baby that shits where he swims and is too doofy a predator for algae-eating tankmates

(who let me brush his shell for more than a minute without leaving today 🎉)
A teenage red-eared slider napping with his beak upturned, right arm extended into the water, back legs mostly tucked, and tail partially butted against the glass. The left shoulder of his shell is beneath an algae-covered rock tunnel/cave, and he’s lying on top of a bright green diving ring. Around him, his heater, rock structure, rocky surface, and drawings on his front glass are visible.

Different things will go here and the screws will be painted too, but here’s the new bedside shelves!

It’s almost time to return to the megabed and keep making our room better until we go.
Two green shelves are centered, made from engineered cardboard scraps and paper. The shelves are filled with miscellaneous sickbedside items like a mini trash can, meds, books, and art supplies. Below remains a surface to be cleared, with a Nintendo switch, a mini junk drawer, and various scraps of paper. The surface and shelf are against a light green wall with a cream cloud painted on the upper right, and an in-progress painting hanging to the left of the shelves.

A poem of queerplatonic gay love for my bois
It took me a while to believe, My brain prone to intruding, and I boldly naive enough to pass these thoughts off as mere intrusions. I know I love you. I'm fairly certain I like you. Certain I trust I can know you well enough to become overwhelmingly smitten by your warmth. You declare I can know you better than you do, and I after all am partial to your understanding of this world. Yet it took me time to understand my own certainty. Certainty you could, can, hold the grace and space it takes to love someone so... out of place. I was unsure I, you, any of us, would find ease in this, so I let it be. I let us all just love each other without any new understandings being understood. I let myself forget about it as much as I could, and my health made that easier to achieve. That short time has changed a lot for all of us. Yet held tight in your arms, standing in your silly chaos amidst a crowded store, or holding space from worlds that deflate you, I still can't help but feel time record new save points. You will always be a risk, and I fully believe you are a risk worth holding onto. (for my boys)

Today’s fun little project has lasted all day somehow but the reward is cool new trinket shelves made (from bed) with supplies I already had :3

Mayhaps I shall share the shelves once they’re dry and on the wall

Timeline do ya thang 😂
A Colin Robinson post mocking ‘I promise to stop drinking if y’all put me in charge of the nuk*s’ Followed by a Media Matters for America post quoting a fox anchor asking ‘What secretary of defense doesn’t have a bottle of bourbon whiskey in their office?’ We’re cooked, and so are the parasites from the alcohol they got us hooked on.

Graphic of a tree with two people sitting on one branch, and another on a lower branch sawing off the two’s branch. The person below has a republican symbol over their head. The two people sitting together have gay and trans flags over their heads, and the person with the gay flag is cutting the trans person’s piece of the branch of too! It’s a commentary on how non-trans gay people are often persuaded to disenfranchise trans comrades by the same people who seek to eliminate them too.

This panel really fucking got me. Like holy fuck yeah it does feel like that. It does make me sob out of fucking nowhere because sometimes it comes out of fucking nowhere.

My back and shoulders are literally doing it now. It’s heating pad time, we’ve met today’s pill limit.
Two panels of a comic about reaching a myalgic encephalomyelitis (aka chronic fatigue syndrome, or ME/CFS) diagnosis. The top panel shows a likeness of the author in bed snuggling a pet, half asleep. The text above says “the tricky part is that those symptoms lag.” The bottom panel’s text reads “for me, most of the time, they appeared the next morning.” The panel shows the same character in a waking position with no background. Her face melting, head bisected, a form constricting the top of her head, and sharp static highlighting all of her joints. I. Fucking. Feel. This.

As someone who loves openly, help me understand why liking people is still periodically embarrassing
Main character from sky, a brown-skinned shaggy white-haired adventurer who wears a blue cloak and floaty outfit, shaking their head side to side. Motion lines swipe horizontally from the sides of their face, joining two side profiles with the front view in the center. Small beads of sweat fly off the sides of their head indicating distress.

finalizing…
A top-down view of the electric kiln shows the squash teapot and watermelon slice centerpiece on a shelf surrounded by bottles, cups, planters, whistles, and other small ceramics. The pieces are all coated in glazes that dry opaque greys before firing to varying colors and opacities. Four kiln post stacks are distributed evenly across the kiln to hold up the next shelf. The kiln posts and firebrick are a light beige, with dark wire elements showing in the crevices of the firebrick. A close-up of the teapot shows a natural-colored and textured glossy squash shape with a segmented handle. The interconnections between the pot, coffee/tea strainer, lid, and handle segments are all facing the camera. In the background, the centerpiece can be seen with the flower holes, seeds, and glossy sliced texture visible. The pieces all sit on top of a black and white drop cloth.

initializing…
Various unfired clay pieces can be seen sitting on a large wooden board resting atop the kiln opening. An assortment of white, golden, red-brown, and marbled travel cups, palettes, bowls, and whistles are visible, all carved in some way. A floral planter, patty pan teapot, watermelon slice centerpiece, and two bedside water bottles are seen inside the kiln. The golden teapot and centerpieces have blue-grey and green embellishments respectively, while the red-brown planter and light marbled bottles show off the color of the clay with unique carvings embellishing each. The pieces are flanked with four stacks of kiln posts, and the kiln elements and firebrick are visible in the background.

installing…
Patty-pan shaped raw clay teapot mid-build. A golden brown ufo-shaped form can be seen front and center on a cake spinner secured with a cut piece of canvas beneath. The teapot features a hidden pour over, topped with a dome-shaped lid where the branch meets the squash shape. The handle for the lid and pot interlock, creating a split branch shape that can be held with one or two hands. Long grey tables with minimal black plastic and steel metal stools on top, a grey cabinet, a television, and other various decorations and tools can be seen in the background. The same patty pan teapot from the previous photo can be seen in the front, with an extra segmentation of the handle creating a wishbone section to allow for simpler cleaning and storage. The edges are no longer protected by newspaper, and the pour over section is just out of frame. Behind the teapot, a watermelon slice-shaped napkin holder can be seen covered in painted seeds and watermelon chunk texture. The slice has a hollow in the center for napkins to sit in, with two lids finishing the slice’s shape on either side. Unpainted seeds on both lids are perforated before being cut out to allow the owner to display dried or fresh flowers along the sides. A third, mostly flat lid in the center allows for napkins to be stored on top when it’s closed, and flowers or other items to be stored in the center when it’s open. Both pieces are still golden brown, with the watermelon showing off purple-grey seeds, an off-white pith, and variegated green rind. These colors will all change as they are fired at different temperatures toward the end of this process.

Apparently of the 3k artists I listened to, these guys made it to the top five

(Predictable honestly these are mostly my top comfort artists)
Graphic with photo and text, a red and black tinted light-effect album with Moses summery is over a vibrant green background. Text below reads: top artists 1-5 Moses sumney, MARO, Cleo soul, raveena, rum.gold; top sings 1-5 velvet blue (Cleo), le depart (adi oasis), breeze (Naomi Sharon), still dreaming (raveena), and all the noise (manana). 112,261 minutes listened. White text on black background. Same as the previous photo, but with a blue photo background and black text on yellow.
