My latest project, which I didn't realize was put in the frame backwards and misaligned until I was done with it. Score another point for ADHD fucking with my hobbies.

No cheating. Your last saved celebrity photo is your therapist. Who is it?

Honestly I would open up to either of the life forms in this photo, but if they were both present? Yeah. Very effective therapeutic team.

Gurathin said he wanted to show Murderbot the ropes, didn't he? Or something like that. πŸ‘€

I finished this project off tonight with the second herb from the left, and it took me seven episodes of Murderbot to finish those eight leaves. But now I can give this to my sister this weekend!

Can we talk about how BRILLIANT Noma Dumezweni was in Murderbot??

I appreciate that in this moment in time, Murderbot is telling a story about people who choose to help each other no matter how many times the world around them tries to tempt them toward cruelty and selfishness.

Still frame from the "Murderbot" TV show. SecUnit (played by Alexander Skarsgard, a tall thin young man with short dark blond hair, a high forehead and an angular face) stands to the rear of Gurathin (played by David Dastmalchian, a dark-haired middle-aged man with an angular face and tightly pursed lips). Gurathin is looking down at something in front of him in consternation while SecUnit looks on with a neutral expression.

But that day, when SecUnit said "I need to check the perimeter," Gurathin realized what it really meant was "I love you." #MurderBot

The local library has a Silent Reading Party a couple of times a year and Sunday is the next one. Last time I read a novel by a local author. This time I'm going to bring Murderbot. Pretty sure I can finish All Systems Red and Artificial Condition in the time allotted. (will be 3rd reread in 3mo)

Hey, if you're not trashing it based on stupid criteria, share your thoughts. if you think "all this voice over means it's a bad show" maybe don't make that post.

practicing self-care by blocking people with stupid-ass Murderbot takes instead of wasting time telling them why they're blockheads.

repulsion is valid, Murderbot.
