An ongoing frustration of mine is the idealising and/or villainising of fixed stars and I wrote about it! azuradastra.substack.com/p/a-cosmolog...

A thing I love to do with planetary days/nights is connect them to my natal chart
Sun-Mercury conjunction? Wednesdays are great for exploring those themes and chilling with the gods

Here's a really good site for hosting academic papers without ads, without spamming your and your colleagues' inboxes, and without signing away all manner of rights.
Zenodo is operated by a European institution (CERN) and, best of all, is named after an ancient Homer scholar.

The Victoria & Albert museum holds many treasures, one of which is this late antique pair of shoes from Roman Egypt (400-600 CE). 10/10 would wear today (photo is my own).

One of my small joys is seeing birds enjoy the water I leave out for them
I'm always like 🥰🥰🥰
I guess it's like...seeing my offering to them has been accepted and I'm playing a small role in their thriving
It's gratifying 😌

So I went with the red/Destroy ending again...but for different reasons
Previously it was "fuck the Reapers (and the Illusive Man)"/external reasons
This time it was, "I want even the slimmest chance to get back to Garrus. It's my turn to get something back for all I've given"/internal reasons

I have played about 400 hours of ME3 alone over the last 12 years
I have never romanced anyone except Garrus
And I still, from the first play to just now, ugly cry until I can't breathe when Shepard says goodbye to him the last time 😭😭😭
May I be loved the way Garrus loves Shepard 🥹
