I said "ooh I like your gold necklace" one time in front of my friends and they called me "Covetous Smaug" for months

A picture of three giraffes (heads only). The parent giraffes heads are coming down into frame from the upper corners and nuzzling the baby giraffe's face which is coming up into the frame from the bottom. Indoor fencing can be seen in the background.

Timeline cleanse. A baby giraffe was born Monday at Hogle Zoo (Salt Lake City, Utah). Photo by Kennedy Camarena of KSL News.

i am rooting for the fat parrots to have a good mating bonanza

That loom is so gorgeous 😍

Honestly not sure if this is a good or bad sign

POV: you decide to lie down for a couple minutes before going to work

Having my work laptop open next to me with Outlook and Teams pulled up counts as work today.

Thank god for work from home, I don't have to pretend to be working in the office today. Made three bracelets while catching up on Critical Role this morning.

Photo of a bottle of ketchup on a grocery store shelf. The brand name is "Harmless," so the label says "Harmless Ketchup."

Immediately suspicious

Scandi Gnome Ornaments pattern by Mary Beth Koskie These little guys are great for combing types of scrap yarns; they can be made plain or add stripes, zig-zags, etc. They can be made to hang as decorations, or to sit on a shelf.

I used this pattern btw: www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

Photo of a knitted nisse with a red body, white beard, and green hat.

Photo of the same thing but from the back.

One of my friends sent me a video about nisse like "did you know about these?? I love them, I wish I had one for my apartment!" I told him my mom has like 40 that she brings out every Christmas, and then I spent the afternoon a few days later making this little guy for him. I hope he likes him 😄

Want to walk into and through an actual Iron Age house…and UP THE STAIRS?
Of course you bloody do.
Come with me.

Carn Liath broch, just sitting quietly beside the A9 as thousands whizz by without stopping. Their mistake.
Far too excited to wait for #HillfortsWednesday

Selfie of me and my reenactment group at a medieval fair.

Photo of a hand holding a nalbound sock in progress, resting on a wooden table along with clay jars and a bowl.

Photo of the inside of a historical tent. There's a bed made of animal skins on the right side, and a bunch of assorted stuff on the left.

Photo of a campsite at a medieval fair. There is a wooden table in the front with some items displayed on it and two reenactors standing behind the table, and a wood and canvas tent in the background.

Some moments from the medieval fair we participated in in Limache over the weekend, including starting yet another sock (it's neverending) and my bed Saturday night (only 4 members of our group chose to sleep there, and we had 3 tents, so I got a big tent all to myself)

Photo of two women smiling at the camera. The one on the left (me) is wearing a homemade Star Trek Original Series uniform and holding a can of beer, and the one on the right is dressed as Morticia Addams and talking the photo.

My friend and I looking very cute at her Halloween party 😄

“some people abuse SNAP” your soul is rotten

Photo of an orange cat's face. I'm rubbing the top of his head and he has his eyes closed his tongue poking out of his mouth.

Thursday blep

Pals! Do I know anyone who’d be particularly interested in being a podcast expert on representation of disability in fiction for a rather lovely podcast by and for and about disabled people? U.K. based preferred but not essential!

For the first time ever I had to pay a customs fee (like $70, about as much as the stuff cost) on a box my mom sent me from the US for my birthday. I don't know enough about Trump's tariff bullshit to say with any certainly that it's his fault, but I'm for sure blaming him anyway.

Photo of me, a tall white woman with long blonde hair, drawing back a wooden bow to shoot at a target not in frame. There are trees and bushes in the background.

I love my new bow and quiver and arrows, really feel like this whole archery thing is coming together. Turns out having decent equipment does actually help.

Photo of an orange cat lying on top of some pillows, but with his shoulders and paws resting on the window ledge. The sun is making him look very reddish golden.

Look at my beautiful boy

Just subbed to you on AO3 because I need to read this 🙏🏼

Photo of a leather quiver lying on the grass. It is mostly light brown but has green at the top and bottom.

Everyone look at this quiver my friend made for me, I think it's so gorgeous

Photo of an orange cat lying on his back with his paws curled in front of him, his head lying on my hand, and his tongue poking out of his mouth.

Friday blep

Ever since I was a little girl, I always dreamed of growing up and getting yelled at by strangers on the internet about the word ‘irregardless.’

Hell yes
