Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Anyone here still Bluesky-curious? I have several invite codes....

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I need to learn how to use BlueSky. Or at least remember to look at it occasionally. Or maybe just having it there if I want it is actually enough, I don't know.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy Hannukkah to all who celebrate!

Well, this is a long time with no posts. Everything ok?

I was wondering too! But I’m tired and had a migraine overnight and hadn’t had the energy to comment (went to bed with a bit of a headache hoping sleep would relieve it, instead had to get up at 2am and take my meds, so feeling a bit hungover today).

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Or at least remember to look at it occasionally

This is me. I think there just isn't the critical mass of people/accounts there yet that makes it feel like a must-follow in the way Twitter used to. OTOH since I mostly forget to check it, maybe I just don't know what I'm missing?

(Also, the last time I logged on my recommended follows were almost entirely furry-related accounts/lists, which gave the impression that Bluesky is aiming for an audience that does not quite align to my interests?)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I was busy yesterday doing Onerous Tasks with Emily.

I tried to get her to help me clean the Guinea Pig cage (much easier as a two person job but Matilda has had basketball games every night this week). I took the soiled liners down to be shaken out and washed, and she was supposed to sweep up the rest of the cage, but she was yelping, "I can't do it! I'm going to throw up!"

She'd be no use mucking out a barn.

Emmett's coming over this afternoon to help move furniture in advance of the xmas tree getting tomorrow. He will be rewarded with his favorite Coq d'Indre au Cognac et Cidre! Also, known as Turkey Stew. Though I made it soupier this year and it's probably the best flavor ever on this recipe. I'll serve it over butter noodles and he'll be a happy lad.

I'm quite happy that cold weather has arrived in SF.

I'm quite annoyed that the garage door has decided to malfunction.

Oh, did I mention we're having a school crisis with Matilda? She's in danger of failing her ceramics class because she's missing a project and has missed the cutoff date for getting it in the kiln. Though we may be able to salvage it.
