This led me to looking into sourcing materials again, and was sad to see how much I just can't get anymore. I may have to start casting some things like rubber pads myself. Or spending a bunch of money buying full goggles w/ pads from someplace like GloFX, but they already sell them with lights…

This weekend I dug out my soldering iron for the first time in over a year and started making rave goggles again.

Made this a while back to combat everyday drudge. Now more than ever it’s good to remind us all that we are enough. No matter how laws change or what bigotry spreads. #art #transrights #humanrights #digitalart #mentalhealth

Sometimes I really miss falling asleep next to someone I feel safe enough with to be so vulnerable, and either sleeping peacefully through the night or - if not - to be able to snuggle back to that sense of assuredness.

i don’t know if rowlf singing “what a wonderful world” to a sleeping puppy is soothing or lie-on-the-floor-and-sob heartbreaking. maybe it’s both. i think I needed both.

4. Do you believe in soulmates? Why or why not?

I'm not religious/spiritual, don't believe in souls. But I do believe that we encounter people throughout our lives who we connect with so deeply, either through our similarities or through shared experiences, that those connections complete us.

3. Is there something you want to tell someone, but won’t?

Of course; I already said I'm pretty private.

There's people I'll never see or talk with again but I'll always love & support them; crushes I know it would never work with so I stayed silent; thoughts I don't share b/c it'd kill the vibe

2. What's a compliment I've never forgotten?

Here's several:
• "You give off calming vibes and make people feel safe."
• "Sexy Wee John!"
• "Can I ask your orientation? Because you're very attractive."

1. Do I have any nicknames?
• Arnie
• Q
• Phteven
• Scuba Steve (or just Scuba)
• Iccy (pronounced like Icky)
• Stoove
• Stoive
• Sexy Wee John
• Hat Daddy

And social media with character limits prevents longer, wordier posts that would have nuance. Do they mean Israel the government, Israel the nation of people, or Israel the codified label for all "people of Israel" (Jewish people) worldwide?

I don't know what that person intended; do you truly?

A friend shared this, and it got me thinking: I'm actually pretty private most of the time, so maybe I could benefit from posting something like this and getting drawn out of my shell a bit

I'll also answer questions if you have something not on the list.

No, you missed what they said.

And being against the actions of a government is not the same as being against the collective whole of all people of a shared heritage. Stop trying to conflate the two. There's a lot of Israeli citizens who don't support the actions of the Israeli government.

A party that doesn't practice what it preaches alienates its voters.

Check out my friend Lark's shop and get a really sweet deal on real handmade plushy birds (and that gorgeous rosy maple moth)!

this is one of my ultimate “could never get away with this today” movies

genuinely an impeccable way to teach kids that poverty is an artificial social construct and the cops use violence to enforce it

also Friar Tuck is one of cinema’s greatest Catholics I am serious

As someone who still keeps current work console gaming, I'd highly recommend a PS5. Unless you want to be able to game on the go too, in which case a Switch or Switch 2.

‘Extremely disturbing and unethical’: new rules allow VA doctors to refuse to treat Democrats, unmarried veterans Trump order allows VA staff to decline providing healthcare to patients based on political affiliation or marital status

What’s the point of this—besides promoting hate?

Medical professionals swear an oath: First, do no harm

It’s disgraceful to see VA leadership cave to politics and deny care.

All patients deserve respect and treatment.
Veterans deserve nothing less.

WHAT THE FUCK

They purposely trampled dude with a HORSE, more than once, then whacked him over the head HARD with a big stick, then got on top of him bodily

I wish I could’ve hit screenrecord faster, there was no rewind on the live but I just saw some grade-a fucked up shit, then ABC7 cut away 😕🙃

there's not a lot of levity here tonight so if you need a break from doomscrolling, this is the biggest love letter to watching anime in the 90s that i've ever seen in my life and it is 3 episodes of the fun kind of escapism

Okay, I can't find the specific pic of me with that same wild hair, but the face pretty close. I might've nailed it with a slightly squinted look as if I were looking towards the sun
