Smol fluffy black dog vs curled up kitchen mat: which will win?

This is him before that, trying to absolutely destroy the newly washed kitchen mat for some reason unknown.

Smol dog curled up on top of a crumpled olive green quilt and another wine coloured quilt under that.

This is him.

Leo is curled up behind me, snoring. So much noise for such a smol dog.

This little gem is Willow. She’s 9 weeks old and brought so much light to my life since I brought her home.

She’s the one I’m raising money to train as my service dog.

I'm reading The One by John Marrs at the moment. It's sooo good.

Scrivener replied to my email about AI.

It's an unequivocal no to AI in their product.

(Their point being: they won't, if an author wants to they can.)

Please repost this. These guys are decent people and a pretty small company.

Also, I want folks who create stories to please PLEASE write that weird stuff- the stuff you think people will gasp about today- your indulgent, genuine, and unapologetic self in your works. Because i guarantee you, someone out there NEEDS whatever 'messed up' story you wanna write

hey not to be all corny but please understand and internalize that your creative work is vital and beautiful whether others see/hear it or not and that your creative expression enriches the world just by your having done it

It's strange how different social media platforms have such distinctly different vibes.

Ever look up which zodiac sign each social media platform is?

Tonight was pretty amazing and eventful. Story up on Threads (xfirefly9x) if anyone's over there too. 🙂

Nice! It is again dark here.

Aw. That sounds like a short trip.

Where would you go if you walked in your sleep?

Dark skies here at the moment, what with it being 2.07am. How's the sky wherever you are?

Thanks! 🙂
