Be sure to do something nice for yourself this weekend instead of doom scrolling. Read a good book. Play board games with a loved one. Scream into a cave. Sort your doomsday seeds by season. Whisper the names of your enemies into the wicked ear of Crzthlach, the First God. Make a sourdough starter.

Just a reminder to support your local public libraries! Write letters of support. Use the library often & in many different ways. Show up to meetings.

Library staff have been begging for help, advocacy, and action for years. Please show up for libraries.

Ok let’s try this over here.

Could use some sci-fi/fantasy reading recommendations. Happy for most sub genres. I’m pretty well read so probably nothing overly obvious. Non genre fic recs will be met by a wish from me to stub your toe twice in quick succession.

I'm at this weird point where I want to take martial artd as a sport/way for me to exercise, but also to take motion acting classes for my animation studies, but also defense and safety class for...well its been two years but I feel like I haven't exercised what I learned very well and it shows

Okay, my OCs but in the color palette of one of my favorite artworks....if I CAN FIND THE NAME OF IT

I'm coming over here from bird app and I know this is meant to be ACG (Anime, Comics, Games) kind of multifandom, but I also like yapping about my other hobbies so we doing both good luck

Avoid scrolling during droughts of inspiration or moments of low motivation. Social media will drain your dopamine—and we need dopamine to feel motivated!

Instead, try:
- walking in nature
- exercise or yoga
- automatic drawing/writing
- sitting in the sun

People always talk about the learning curve to go from traditional to digital art but never talk about digital to traditional. I just tried to hit backspace on a piece of paper

All public libraries have one or more of the following: free books, free movies (often new releases!), free audiobooks, free e-books, free wifi, free-to-use computers, , free music, free musical instruments, free puzzles, free wall art, free passes to museums and theater, free food, free restrooms..

An idea: I want to enroll in a defense class again. Go to libraries. Home econ. Basic first aid. BLS. ACLS. I want to do a lot of things that I'm already doing and used to do.
