Apparently referring to old tobacco stains as 'old drippy brown' is inappropriate and that I was wrong to say it. 🤦

Two new pins for my badged jacket!

Fixing all the derpy metadata for my ebooks is taking a while ahhhhhh

Removed a massive (ok it's only like 1cm long) bone fragment from my still healing wisdom tooth socket.

Who's doped up on oxycodone and about to attempt to reduce a dislocated elbow? THIS GAL

The dr couldn't get it in so said I should give it a razz myself at home after taking good stuff.

This is not an infrequent occurrence, btw. Will update if successful. Stupid ulna.

Brought in some dampydillts to brighten the house on this stormy day. 🥰

I just realised my hypermobility means I hold books/devices really weirdly. 😂 My poor pinky joints.

A beringed hand holding a kobo ereader. The reader resting on the pinky in such a way that the first knuckle is almost out of joint. Stickers adorn the reader, a prominent fountain pen sticker in focus saying 'goulet pens'.

Finally picked up a sweet ebook reader! A kobo libra colour! One of the first things I've done is grace the sleep screen with Arty. 😺❤️

So one of my cats is deaf, right?

I can insult her and she has no clue 🥰

She started twitching in her sleep so I called her a twitchy bitch and she has no idea ohohoho

Thought this infographic was interesting. 'Only' 17% of Australians are homophobic. Wish it were less. I couldn't imagine carrying all that hate inside my heart.

Oh. Oh. Whoops

That said, I do have bilateral microdontia so comparing something to my teeth is easy to beat 😂

Bad news, I have been diagnosed with B-cell non-Hodgkins Lymphoma.

Obviously shit is scary for me right now but if you would like to support my treatments and recovery, I made a GoFundMe link!

I plan to start my first treatment in the next couple of days.

On a darker note, I am concerned that my friends in the US are losing their healthcare, and that next, they're just going to disappear.

I love you and I fear for you. <3 Stay safe.
