this reminds me a little of a quote from a movie whose name escapes me "you didn't make good choices, you had good choices".
Not erasing the good choices made by those with the options! But, as you say, some people have to climb out of a hole first.

Back when I was on Spotify I used to listen to a fair bit of jazz. Especially in the realm of like soft jazz.
No lyrics, or excitable brass.
It appears I never ported over those playlists when I left and now I've been missing it.
Anyone got any recs for me? Think music that is good background for reading, winding down.

I can't help but think about the fact that at many protests people cover their faces and identifying tattoos and leave their hands visible.
Just a random thought that popped into my head while reading this, surely it's not related at all.

My entry for my own Draw This In Your Style challenge!
For me the whole point of this challenge is to develop my own style with urban sketch. What that looks like for this sketch is a lot more ink work. I was almost scared to add paint to it because I liked the ink so much!

New pen! The sailor fude, which has a very unique nib in that the tip points up at the end. This allows for a ton of variation in the line, depending on the angle it touches the paper.
Will be fun to add to my toolkit.

Thank you! I haven't seen any starlings yet. The jays definitely clear the peanuts out pretty quick. Them and the two squirrels.
I'm so happy with my setup, it was a bit of a splurge but it brings me a LOT of joy. In the face of the world being, frankly, very terrible... feeling connected to the local bird population is helping.

lol! Yes, my new Brome setup, loving it a lot, especially with the added branches.
Mostly the squirrels have (knocks on ALL the wood) left the bird feeder alone. Even my last one they ignored completely. That's part of why I added the branches even tho I know they'd let the squirrel get at the feeder.
Just putting out very small amounts of treats right now to gauge interest.

SO smart. It's really neat watching them turn it around to soak it, hold it in their claw to keep it in one place and submerged. Absolutely fascinating.
It *might* be pizza? I wondered that, later one visits with a piece that definitely looks like it has tomato sauce on it.

2025-08-13 21:23:21 UTC

I *just* cleaned that bird bath, lmao
No idea where the crows keep getting the bread, but yesterday they visited with a chunk twice. It doesn't look like someone's feeding them, the piece is too big (i assume). My guess is someone's unsecured compost or food waste.

I spotted one at the feeder last week, mostly hiding behind the cylinder so I couldn't get a good look.
iNaturalist agrees it's a chickadee, but isn't sure what sort. Top suggestion was chestnut backed which does look right.

2025-08-12 19:29:45 UTC

I'm ever so grateful to the bird friends showing up today as I've had such a difficult week. Having to take down the feeder was a big part of it too.
I *think* this visitor is a chickadee.
I've gone out and rinsed the bath, replacing the water. This morning's visits left it a bit dirty. As payment to the birds for bothering their space I left some shelled peanuts in the mesh tray. That's as good as I can do til the better feeder gets here.

We've finished watching Andor and I quite enjoyed it!.
I've never been a SW fan. I didn't hate it, just... Didn't do it for me. But I freaking love Rogue One a lot.
It feels different in the ways that I like. So we decided to give Andor a go. The last second season wasn't as strong, especially in the beginning. But still great.
Last night we watched Rogue One, so interesting in the light of the events of the show.
Tonight? A New Hope. We'll do the trilogy then the Mandalorian.

I'm kind of amazed how much time the crows are immediately spending at the bath, drinking water.
Makes me wonder if there aren't good sources nearby? (I do live in the suburbs, lots of trees but not much wild nature areas) Or the nature gods of the area have just blessed me with crow friends.

Crow friend is back. I think this one has a small leucistic strip of white on its wings.
This crow has been a pretty regular visitor already, although they weren't out this morning, they showed up immediately after I refreshed the water.
Debating a name for them.
My son and partner are taking bets on how long til the crows start bringing gifts. I would fully ugly cry if that ever happened.

It can help open up a broader conversation of WHY we have first responders (fire, ambulance, etc) and then discussions about why police don't really serve a useful purpose for that. And what jobs might be better fits for the problems we are told police solve. Point to social workers, mental health specialists... and then getting into stuff like food and housing. Obviously that last bit is advanced for a 5yo, but it lays the groundwork for the future.

Specifically:
* tomatilla grande rio verde
* tropical sunset tomatoes
* mini cukes
*long english cukes

People who like beans: I am trying to include more fiber in my diet, and beans is an obvious route.
My typical lunch these days is a rice bowl with a lot of veg and protein. I'm thinking I could add some beans to that?
I batch cook the rice and freeze in portions to reheat, thinking can mix the beans into the rice?
But what sort of beans would suit that style? (preference to something I can get canned or is very easy to cook, like in a slow cooker - I don't have/want an instapot)

Not bad for a first time. But we'll see how they look after rising, and baking.
These are kaiser rolls, shaped in the traditional way from a long rope that is knotted and tucked into itself.

Ok, I'm gonna try my best this time cuz I do hear it's a great show and I need a distraction.

See and I think it's after the first 1.5 seasons that I start to get really confused and find it hard to follow lol.
Glad to hear the wrist is better!

I've never watched it all the way to the end. We'll see if this time it sticks.
I *know* that the smart thing to do is rest until my wrist is 100% better. And I will, but it's so frustrating in the meantime.
I hope you're pain-free and back to crochet now <3

Yesterday I finally found a combination of things that helped me unplug and relax. Knitting and watching Fringe.
Today I wake up and my wrist is so fucked there's no way I can knit responsibly. Feels like the universe giving me the finger.

That depression/burnout feeling where you make plans you're excited about and then the day comes and you have to get ready and actually leave the house...
Fuck.

Yeah, the fabric isn't BAD, just worn and tired looking (another testament to quality!)
I'm debating slip covers but it's so hard to find good ones that would fit this style couch. I think I'd be stuck with the big blanket style draped over it and that can look so sloppy.

I don't even know what my parents paid but it was A LOT. Like probably 5k+ for the whole set? It's a BEAST of a set but it's the most comfortable furniture I've ever sat in.

I've been debating this as well. I have a fairly old couch set, like it's probably ~20 yrs at this point. But it's SO comfy and sturdy and I know that buying anything that quality of make is going to likely be $$$. So even tho it might cost more than a new couch to recover it, it's still less than buying equivalent quality.
Plus yeah, all the landfill issues (although I could probably sell/giveaway the current set)

Parents, if I could give you one single piece of advice for handling the teenage years...
Be interested in what they're interested in. Let your kid info dump at you, try to remember the things that crop up repeatedly.
Nothing builds that bond between you like just being interested.
Kids don't wake up one day and decide to stop talking to you. It's not a switch that gets flipped the minute they turn a certain age.
Listen to your kids, ffs.

very comfy to hold! And it's waterproof (pretty sure, lol)

It's the Kobo Libra Color! I adore it. Especially because I can wirelessly add books from dropbox/google drive AND from the library.
Plus it's very responsive.

Sometimes you just need to ignore the world and luxuriate.

You may also like, if you haven't played it yet, Sakuna of Rice and Ruin.
It's like, a rice farming sim, and then also a side scrolling platformer. And the story is great and it's just so cozy and sweet.

Oh it's so much fun. It's like exactly what I imagine when I think the "Final Fantasy people" made a farm sim.
There's a lot of farming elements, and then cooking the food is a big part of it. Plus there's a plot and magic and stuff. It's *excellent*.

The desire to curl up in a blanket nest with my latest Switch game obsession (Harvestella) and NOT venture out into the FREEZING cold is very strong.
However I need groceries and it is too late to get delivery (and while delivery of groceries started out very strong like a decade ago here... it's absolutely bullshit now and more stressful than just going out).

The first one is based off a Kobold Press setting called The Book of Ebon Tides. But from what I understand the vibes are similar to the Witchlight campaign.
Golden Sky Stories sound adorable! I love the idea of a non-violent campaign. While the Obojima setting isn't fully non-violent it definitely puts the emphasis on finding other solutions than just killing the problem

I am! I had two campaigns running for the last like... two years? But I was a BRAND NEW dm. And I didn't know a lot.
I've learned a ton since then. So I'm starting two new ones.
One is like, all court shenanigans and fuckery, and ofc it's in the shadow fey realm. It's gonna be bonkers.
The other is way cozy and chill and entirely a homebrew plot, in a new setting called Obojima. Very like Ghibli, whimsy vibes.

I'm so sorry. I'm around for a bit, faffing about with some storyline stuff for my new D&D campaigns.

Oh gosh, that second photo brought me to tears. Their relationship is so very special, and I'm so honored and grateful they permit you to share it with us all.
I hope everyone has a restful evening.

I might just live off rice bowls forever.
I always forget how easy 親子丼 (oyakodon) is to make.
Normally one would leave the yolks runny but I don't trust north american grocery store eggs not to cook them fully.

I do this pretty early on with any new person who I want to actually be a friend. It's a bit of a litmus test for me, whether we can actually be friends-friends or just ppl who know each other
