I've finally given in and ordered myself new glasses.

Optometrist: not too bad, actually! Only increased by 25!
Me: +sighs+ "only."
Optometrist: on both sides!
Me: 😭

I was doing online tutoring for a whole hour to the distant, shrill sounds of "fweeeeeeeeeee. _fweeeeeeeeeeee_." (they were muted enough through the walls that I don't think my mic could pick them up, so I didn't say anything, but _I_ could hear them, and it was a very bizarre experience)

'Moorland pools' - the fourth landscape in tomorrows mini art update! This one is essentially a smaller version of the last moorland piece I showed where I just wanted to play with shape and texture some more :) I'll post tomorrow afternoon when all 4 are up, around 4pm GMT on my site! #embroidery

a hand holding an embroidery hoop, which depicts an embroidered aerial view landscape. The landscape is moorland inspired with shrubs and bushes surrounding little pools; the top left as a rocky area, made from painted pine bark chips.

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · Aug 15

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Green sits by himself in front of his computer, frowning in mildly annoyed disappointment. His thoughts hover above his head as narration.
Green, in thought: They say "nobody else is in charge of your online experience. Nobody's breaking into your home to show you things that make you mad." Of course not.

Green remains unmoving, his expression unchangeing, as Blue appears on the scene. Blue is frowning at his phone, tilting the screen towards Green, who is adamantly not even glancing towards the phone.
Blue: Look at this stupid thing people are arguing about.
Green, still in silent narration: He lives here.

lol I've been farming latest dungeon for gear and had to do the panicked samba-arm's length-waltz-improv finish-second wind DNC tank routine on 3 separate runs when tank unexpectedly blew up and only just realized it's because the trash mobs do a true gravity attack that cuts by 50% max hp XD #FFXIV

I like how I have cleared the latest extreme twice now on two different roles (PLD and SMN) in complete and utter confusion just sprinting side to side off callouts and so I still have no clue how to do this fight lmao

I will *never* apologize for a post

According to Greek mythology, Chiron was a half horse, half human doctor.

This made him the Centaur for Disease Control.

I mean, "the amount of stamina and core/leg strength I have can fit in a thimble." I can execute a cross body lead left triple turn no issue. What I can't do is a cbl triple turn into a cbr double into coke into cbl double into quadruple spin.
"You're ok what!" No. Please stop 😭

My bros, I love y'all, and I appreciate the compliment that my follow connection apparently still feels good enough that y'all feel confident enough to lead the shit you've been leading through, but when I say "it's been ages, go easy," I don't mean "I've forgotten how to dance";
