Thank you @writersamwicker.bsky.social for the sprints today. I ended up doing about 5 hrs in total, the first decent chunk of writing work I've done since... before Milou.
I just could not see the point. Nor do I want my grief and sadness in the manuscript. Maybe this year I'll finish #TimeShift

I love ghost stories, liminal spaces. Here's my favourite episode of Big Old Boats, SS Baychimo. Usually I go for the lighthouse stories, the ghost stories, but I love this one. Hope someone out there will too. #JoinIn

#JoinIn was so popular on Bluesky on Christmas Day that there was a 7-hour delay!!! Posts are finally showing up today.

People have been chatting the whole time, so your post isn’t being ignored.

People are still chatting.

Everyone is welcome throughout the Christmas holidays.

I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I spent hours looking for something to watch that hit the spot, but it found me, so I'm sharing with you #joinin

Here's my pretty feline company, Tabita, but I think she's actually torbie (tabby+tortie), she definitely can be spicy at times. #joinin

*the light returns!* yeah I get it, I've lived far north too.
But to me it means less left of the cozy season--this year before it even began. I'm still grieving.
I'm exhausted.
I wish it was cold enough to burrow in a blanket with tea (✔️) and chocolate (which I don't-allergic).

Every cat, dog, hamster, rabbit, guineapig, horse, you get it.
I hope every furry creature I ever held, comforted, or loved come running—not because they were called, but because they remember me the way I remember them.

Spring depression hit early this year, it feels like I only just shifted out of it. I know it's not what you want to hear, but that's where I'm at. Can't wait for the "festive season" to be over and the forced jolliness to go away.
F off 2025.

I guess that's one thing I did too, but Milou did not, so it doesn't feel like a win.

So relatable 😹 (laughing with you, not at you) and wish it wasn't. Great capture, AshFiles

Was tired of rushing my tea getting cold so I got this as a Solstice present. You can see Tabi is a small cat (and the mug is big!) Started using right away coz why not, get maximum use. It's a knockoff, but I like that the handle stays cool and of course the colour (a lot greener irl.)
