For real! I had to choose between playing in the park or going home to see Sailor Moon when I was in kindergarten. :D I didn't miss the intro thankfully.

That poem is both haunting and lovely, perfectly on theme. And the poet having ties to the Pre-Raphaelites like artist Millais is pretty dope!

I was working with an artist on one of my quests today and as we tried to figure out the environmental storytelling with some roads and rocks and trees and shit I couldn't help but wonder if @anyaustin.bsky.social would be able to sus out what happened ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธ

The internet wants you to be both
1. Someone who has to change your mind to fit into the changing world
2. Will hold you accountable for any views you held at any point in your life because people don't change

Or in my case, rejecting the cookie for the rice cake, as well as the yogourt, the apple, the cup of tea...and eventually realizing I should have just eaten the cookie because it was the only thing that was going to satisfy me. Instead I gobbled so much more in my effort to avoid the cookie! ๐Ÿฅฒ

One time a friend told me that if you must procrastinate, commit to it! Maybe it would be the irresponsible decision, but if you've already decided to procrastinate... don't half-ass it. ๐Ÿ˜›

PFAS in the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River | CBC News Toxic chemicals are flowing into the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River โ€” and theyโ€™re showing up in drinking water.

Most places I've lived have been along the Great Lakes or St Lawrence River, and I've always consumed the local tap water. ๐Ÿฅฒ Still crazy that this is the best time to be alive healthwise, all things considered. ๐Ÿคธ๐Ÿพโ€โ™€๏ธ Always a fan of sleek anims from the CBC explaining dire problems that affect me haha

Happy 85th Birthday to BUGS BUNNY (making his theatrical debut in a July 27th, 1940 short)

The clip comes from a 1947, "Slick Hare"

This is still one of the best 90s gaming magazine ads ever.

Was using the cleaning crystals to purify my alignment this morning.

My retainer had too much plaque buildup on it.

to live in modern times is to suffer repeatedly from a poison ingredient, convenience, or app that seems fine at first. and then after you've become poisoned it turns out that it was poisonous the whole time, with no remedy

I hear in your 40s you start to not give a shit what other people think, so I'll try to manage until then. There's a great song by The Books called, "Enjoy Your Worries, You May Never Have Them Again", and like to remember it when dealing with spectres from my childhood.

I hope you can too. ๐Ÿฉต

I appreciate my team so much because they give me that genuine validation, and as I build my self-esteem, I'm less reliant on their praise and more able to stand on my two feet and believe my work is good and my worth is clear.

This is who I am right now and that's okay, even if painful at times.

The older I get, the more evidence I have for my childhood dictating patterns throughout the rest of my life.

Which is some nice wisdom but also A TOTAL PAIN IN THE ASS as an ex-perfectionist who still needs validation from everyone and everything, like a child. Work โ‰  school! ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

30-something me, looking back to teenaged me and foolishly thinking that all people were *actually* equal because that's what we were told as children. Reality hurts. The fight for something better continues.

My petty observations continue! I'm pretty sure I know the culprit now.

An empty toilet paper roll on a holder, with a newly started toilet paper roll nearby on a garbage can lid, in a bathroom.

I have 3 guests and am silently judging whoever has done this. We're all over 30.

The guest with ADHD? Possibly, but her home is cleaner than mine, it's uncharacteristic of her. Maybe her partner? Too little data. Could be the guest who still lives with her parents, but that's a potential bias... ๐Ÿง

Aww, that's sad but also a cool celebration of life. You totally need to get yourself a nice black cotton summer dress that is billowy and appropriate for the occasion.

Regarding my appreciation of transit in cities I've lived in, I'll take Montreal's STM stability over hometown Toronto's TTC any day. But I'm also impressed that Torontonians remain much more patient boarding the train. They don't force in before people have mostly exited. More of this pls MTL!

Beloit, WI revitalized its waterfront and chose this way to celebrate it: by bringing to life Georges Seurat's "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte."

I wanted to buy a fall/winter fleece on sale and did the responsible thing and waited a couple of days to decide. Went to purchase it today and now it's gone from the site. Not sold out. Gone. Along with all of its other out-of-season friends.

God I hate the fast fashion cycle.

Adriana Smithโ€™s baby was delivered. We wish we could say she delivered her own child, but she didnโ€™t get a say in the matter. The state of Georgia got what they wanted. Today, Adriana Smith will be taken off life support. buff.ly/MH9FY07
