[quoted image alt text: what’s your favourite Christmas crime movie? (Don’t say DIE HARD.)]

I cannot judge it as “favourite” because I hardly remember any “Christmas Crime movies”, but this one was entertaining and fun. It was wild and I had no idea what to expect from beginning to end.
Close up of a wide-eyed blonde woman with short hair defensively holding a plank of wood in front of a lot of Christmas lights and outdoor decorations. The words “Christmas Crossfire” are at the bottom.

Off to see the wizard… #WickedForGood
me in a black cotton tube top and skirt with a velvet and mesh floral loose robe underneath a black underbust corset, I’m also wearing a knitted witch hat and lace and beaded choker with green sparkly lipstick and green socks peeking out of my faux leather boots (to look like Elphaba’s green skin); also wearing my blue glasses because I need to be able to see me in the same outfit, posing like I’m doing Elphaba’s dance at the Ozdust (wrist on the side of my head with my fingers splayed out, one of my feet extended) same outfit again but the witch hat is a lil cooler (bent more over my face) same outfit but closeup

I did it 😌 glad I decided to give Death’s Door a go! Very cute, pretty hard for me, but rewarding when I made progress (and defeated the upgrade enemies, which were the most difficult for me). Getting lost was quite common! A few skills/goals not being explained AT ALL was the biggest negative.
The game select screen of Death’s Door showing that I beat the game to 100% in just under 50 hours (I definitely ate a few meals while it was paused though)

A moment for the headdress I made! I love how the bead and ribbon “flies” turned out 🥹🕸️🕷️🪰
me in the same Black Widow costume, but closer so the headdress I made is more visible me in the same costume as above with a different pose the headdress; cardboard wrapped in velvet ribbon with geometric rhinestones on it. 5 spindles come out of the headband (zip ties with spiral cord over top) with black chain between them, the chain has slack so it looks like web strands. Beads with iridescent ribbon through the holes are suspended from some chain meant to look like flies caught in the “web”. The end of the spindles have black diamond shaped rhinestones on them. Attached to my head with thick wire and elastic.

Felt like I was channeling a 90s sitcom character today
me in a vintage clothing area wearing loose light blue jeans, black faux leather boots, a dark brown belt with brass buckle, and a dark brown loose knitted vest over a light grey-brown long sleeve shirt. One hand is in my pocket and I’m smiling. My curly hair is pulled back with some curls framing my face. I’m also wearing blue glasses and gold earrings, necklace, and rings.

Would this set be good for sake? Considering it — I usually prefer chilled sake and have been thinking it’d be nice to have a set to drink out of 🤔

It’s actually purple glass, but hard to see unless it’s in the light! I love that it’s like a surprise 💜
A close up of the same vase, but sitting in a beam of light so you can see that it is a transparent purple, there are also three curved lines of glass decorating the vase. The flowers are blurry as the vase is the focus of the image

between Foundation and K-Pop Demon Hunters I think the real message is “music has the power to change the world”

More garbage art

blue purple green and silver abstract art of circles stamped from random objects, paint splatters, and drips with marker and pen drawings over, cut up with straight lines and reassembled with space between each piece on a purple piece of construction paper

“Spot” prompt, creative writing #whistpr
There’s a spot — It’s always been there, ever since she could remember. But it used to be smaller. She had a sense that it grew with her shame, like that story about the painting in the attic that aged and twisted with all of the horrible things Dorian Gray did. But she didn’t have a painting — she had a spot. When she was younger, she used to try to see shapes within the spot. Maybe it was a duck, or a sailboat, an elephant, a car. As she got older she avoided looking at it. It seemed to mock her. She swore sometimes she could hear it laughing — they’d know, they’d all know. The mark was upon her — sometimes in different areas on her body, but always there. Waiting, biding it’s time. For what, she didn’t know. But someday it would become apparent what had been lying in wait all this time. And it would be too late. -“Spot” writing prompt, 07/22/25, By Ellis

Nov. 3, 2010 — -- Despite a lifetime of hard partying, heavy metal rocker Ozzy Osbourne is alive and kicking at 61, and he may have his genes to thank for it. Now that the "Full Osbourne Genome" has been sequenced, the truth is out: the former lead singer of Black Sabbath is a genetic mutant. The musician has several gene variants that "we've never seen before," said geneticist Nathaniel Pearson, who sequenced the rocker's genome, including variants that could impact how Osbourne's body absorbs methamphetamines and other recreational drugs.
