Part of the selling over donating, is to start a fund for top surgery or just so I can rebuild my savings

De-Harry Pottering my life, removing all of it with plans to sell it. I honestly didn't think I'd start to feel grief over it. Mostly the grief of how she's a horrible person and wishing she wasn't so I could hold onto that part of my life. But I can't hold onto it, so it's going.

@candy31.bsky.social inspired me to get back into spreadsheets, and now I cannot be stopped. (Mostly just organising my club's gear, maybe to slight extremes, but it's fine)

The fact I have hurt my knee, and then keep putting my weight on it, because I hurt it compensating for my other leg, and I automatically keep doing it.

Snagged a kindle copy of Heat of the Everflame by @authorpenncole.bsky.social because I couldn’t wait until March for it in paperback. (I will still get it and read it) took me a bit to realise why Taran felt so familiar. And it just clicked. He reminds me of one of my best friends

The wonders the thought of dropping to “limited full time study” has done for my mental health already. The weight lifted off of my shoulders already.

I’ve been able to enjoy reading again. Including demolishing the 6 books I’ve read this month already. (I’m a fast reader when I enjoy a book)

I recently made the choice for myself to not complete my degree on the arbitrary timeline set out for those who are Neurotypical, and the one my parents expected timeline.

Instead, I may only complete end of 2026, but I’d rather do well then fail courses and still complete on that timeline anyway.

I’ll have to see if I can find it in NZ, will check the library.

I feel like a teenager again who would stay up all night reading. It’s 2am and I just finished my second book… having started the first book at 6pm-ish.

And now I’m trying to tell myself that I don’t need to start the third, and that I should sleep

QUAKE!!! #eqnz #wellingtonnz

The feelings are disrupting my ability to use hashtags. #booksky

And my ability to focus on Duolingo.

But as a Gen Zer I should probably know how to use hashtags but it seems I don’t half the time

The feeling of finishing a book and then realising I don’t have anyone to chat to about the ending that will know what I’m talking about and being desperate to talk about it.

I’ve slowly started to learn that it’s okay to call myself disabled, even though most days I can walk by myself. I probably should get a mobility aid, but people like to judge and I don’t want to face that scrutiny. So I’ll just deal with it.

Brought to you by knees that decided to subluxate today

So happy for you!! Will be excited to read it when it comes out!

I’m doing that now, but I should be able to do both

The way the comments changed when the 🦅🇺🇸’s returned. And all the bots. And stolen content accounts.

I love my American friends, but I do miss those few hours that I had (as I slept through most of it)

Okay. 2nd try because I forgot it was a video. I essentially cannot move Americans out of my content feed. I am not allowed to. So to them saying “you build your own FYP”

Seeing them on your videos now makes me just want to delete TikTok, they are fully proving the points that were made

Seeing all the Americans now crying over what you said. Having seen your content this morning my time. I mean. You weren’t wrong at all. They’ve got double standards. They can say all that stuff but others can’t

I’m proud of myself, I fixed the washing machine and got it working

I need to curate my Te Whanganui a Tara Bluesky people as I once had on Twitter. I need the posts of “Was that a shake?” Or “Quake!” to confirm that it was in fact not the wind or me shaking my desk. #WellingtonNZ #GeoNet

I’ve been sick AF lately, but I made progress on one of my assignments!! Should get it done today and then three more to go! (Two are very small ones)

The six week courses are brutal and do not give you time if you get sick.

Spotify Wrapped: screenshot of Red and Green image with a picture of Macklemore. There is text in black that says “You’re a top 0.05% fan and you spent 1,771 minutes together”

Spotify Wrapped: Black background with a picture of Macklemore, and two lists Top Artists 1. Macklemore 2. Imagine Dragons 3. anees 4. MC Abdul 5. Jorge Rivera-Herrans Top Songs 1. HIND’S HALL 2. HIND’S HALL 2 (feat anees, MC Abdul, Amer Zahr) 3. Bach: Adagio (After Violin Concerto No.2, BWV1042) 4. Prelude in G Major 5. Shadow Minutes listened 7,723

As much as these colours don’t do it for me at all.
I honestly thought West End/Broadway would be there more, but I’m not surprised with Hinds Hall being top, or Imagine Dragons being there.

I definitely don’t stick to a TBR, it’s probably why I keep buying more books that gets added to the trolley/book pile.

I think my disabilities are the reason I can’t get a job. I don’t mention it a lot of the times, as I’m not visibly disabled. But when I do if accidentally their mood shifts, and then I never hear back.

Goblin: Intruders!

Bard: Wait! Before you attack—what are you getting paid?

Goblin: A sp a week.

Bard: You know minimum wage in these parts is 1 gp a day, right?

Goblin: What?!

Bard: Yep. We’re gonna kill your boss anyways, so—

Goblin: Down the hall and to the left.

Should I read or do my assignments?
#booksky

I knew this book would be too queer for some straight people and too “straight” for some queer people, but honestly that’s why I knew I needed to write it. This book is for every person in a queer relationship that gets discounted and erased 💜 #booksky #queerbooksky #enby
