And the electric work has begun 🙌
I'm mostly running wire through channels in the frame. Using conduit and grommets to protect the wire from chafing against the metal edges. I'm just running wire for now; all the connections will happen after furniture goes in.

I know this is corny to say but this is the real America, man. This is what it’s all about. This is what those freaks are trying to destroy & we won’t let them
Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.

Cat is out of the bag! Tor declined my suggestion to include in the blurb "sapphic Winter Soldier, but wizards"; however this is in fact the only accurate way to describe this book torpublishinggroup.com/call-me-trai...

Okay, I will preface this with the GIGANTIC disclaimer that I promise I know how this looks, and I *swear* this is not personally motivated: If you have an old #LiveJournal account, and it has things you still care about in it, download it or import it to Dreamwidth SOON. Details:

Time for year-end lists~
As usual, this is in order of completion, and I tend to not finish things I don't like, except for movies.
My favorite book I read this year was But Not Too Bold. I've been waiting since I was 12 for a monster romance just like this one 💖

Among other things, 2020 really warped my perception of reality into “alone time with my parents is a real and possible thing to achieve”

As a multiple language speaker it's also frustrating to see people using AI for translation because the English speaking world tends to treat translators like workers for hire instead of co authors of text and this feels like more of it. Translation at the literary level is creative work.

Ok I'm going to try and stay calm
But I'll point out that AI translation is literally causing translators to be fired (see the whole Harlequin line in France)

i'm kind of feeling the paint color, but i want it to be a touch more red, which i'm hoping will happen once all the walls and ceiling are painted. it does pair well with the green and grey tho, imo.
spur of the moment decision to get a sample and paint one of the door panels so I can get a feeling for this color I've been eyeballing for over a year. This panel is not going to stay in the long term; it's one crack away from splitting in half entirely, so I'm just gonna let it be its janky self

the good news is the insulation is working really well for sound proofing. the bad news is my neighbors are having a house party in their backyard and the van is currently quieter than my bedroom.

Back to the van after a long travel break. I got foam up on the ceiling today for a little extra soundproofing, this was just leftover underlayment. Insulation will start going up tomorrow. The floors are not 100% done, but I’m tired of being cold in here lol
