I’m about 5 weeks post op, and wore my binders out to the point of the elasticity was giving up the ghost.
I hate what’s happening in this sorry excuse of a “free” nation. Absolutely inexcusable decisions being made.
I’m, just so tired.

In addition to this administration trying to kill kids, and they're also coming for our binders? OUR BINDERS.

Funny animal videos no longer being trustworthy just fucking sucks all around. I love the wonder of animal behavior and what it says about the experience of being alive. It's because it happened in reality that it's so fun. It's not fun if it was just made up. There's no wonder there.

The cgi might look dated but those practical effects are holding strong.
Time for another midday #Horrorsky rewatch.
#NowWatching Stuart Gordon’s Dagon. Based partially on the Lovecraft story of the same name, but melded with The Shadow Over Innsmouth.
Haven’t seen this in years, but I always enjoyed in, in spite of some major budgetary restrictions.

Love it when I ask if there’s cilantro in a dish just to be told “no” when infact the entire dish is cilantro focused. 3 out of 4 components of the dish were heavy on cilantro. The only thing free of that vile herb was the sour cream ☹️ (they took it away and refunded but wtf)

Home from seeing Wolfwalkers in a theater! On a big screen with proper audio! The only way that could have been better is if I had been able to see it when @tommcartooner.bsky.social projected on the side of the castle walls in Kilkenny.
Thanks again @thefridacinema.org for screening this properly.

Accidentally sent my eldest down a rabbit-hole of Gaither’s Pond, she is overjoyed in learning more about whatever fever dream that was. Thanks Digital Circus for reminding me of cursed knowledge.

Got up extra early today, went down the Requiem Cafe to try our luck in the stand by line for their Amazing Digital Circus meet & greet. We would have made it in, but the kiddo’s bff’s birthday party was today as well and we had to dip around 2 to attend.

Amazing Digital Circus, I really dig that trippy ass effect, but my kid recoiled so hard from the visual overstimulation.
I’m guessing it did the thing where you feel like you’re moving while you’re just standing still watching a parade pass by.

Crocheted a Hornet doll from Silksong for my eldest.
Just finished stitching up a plush dragon for my youngest’s bff’s birthday tomorrow.
Now to crochet a pillbug plush for said youngest in the next week while she’s at school.
Not having income sucks ass, but at least I have a crafting supply cache.

I don’t really care for the term ‘comfort show/movie’ but damnit if any travelogue with Anthony Bourdain isn’t that for me.
That said, I absolutely will not be watching the postmortem series. It feels ghoulish and wrong. Just squeezing the last few drops out of what scraps can be scrounged up.

I was already looking forward to Dust Bunny because it’s Bryan Fuller with Mads Mikkelsen. But a 3:1 aspect ratio sounds insane. I want to see what Fuller will pull off with that! Hannibal had the most gorgeous shots, so no doubt every frame will look like it could be framed on a wall, but looong.

Another email from HR in the case of ‘did Amber work the 3 days they claim?’ since I’m still missing 22 hours worth of pay. Only to keep adding another manager to the thread.
Fucking cc the whole management team, I just want my money!
At least they fixed my pronouns after I pointed out their error.

Going to go and see Wolfwalkers on a big screen Sunday, since Covid stole that option from everyone when it came out.
I love that @thefridacinema.org is running a whole program of screenings for movies that had to be unceremoniously dropped on streaming when everything was shuttered.

Can not emphasise enough how much you should go to your moderation settings and turn off hiding for the 「 rude 」 label
All the moderation here sucks but this, in particular, is systematically abused by Aaron the so-called head of 「 trust and safety 」 here at BS.

Good news! No more bandages or binders!
Bad news! I have to start going back to work next week.
(Unless they can’t accommodate my modified requirements, then it’s 3 more weeks at home, only time will tell)

If anyone is trying to find a normal ass chocolate advent calendar, good luck.
We started at World Market, they usually have aisles of them, not this year. CVS, Dollar Tree and Ralph’s also did not.
We found a handful of options at Kohl’s in their impulse buy section at their cash wrap.

Finally got around to tackling this project, took a few detours in my plan but this honestly came out much better than my original vision.
Peeled it back, then peeled it back some more, right down to the backing board.

Most of my top played (not Spotify for various reasons) I already own physical copies of but stream when I’m nowhere near my collection/player.
Buy the music, buy the merch, go to shows if you can. Support the artist by any means. Streaming just doesn’t pay them nearly enough.

Hey it's *Bandcamp Friday* again. The best day to go find that artist who was top of your Spotify unwrapped and actually buy their music, because all the proceeds go to them today. And by god do musicians need it.
