At work on of the folks I support is almost always blasting fox. It’s their home so of course they absolutely can watch whatever they want. Still… it’s one of the many stimuli that I have to block out while at work

😁🎉

Almost four weeks on the job. On the one hand it’s nice to be getting things done. On the other hand there is always more to do.

Today feels more like winter with freezing temps and snow flurries. But last weekend autumn was autumning here.

A Golden Guide: Hallucinogenic Plants Showing cannabis leaf, mushrooms etc.

What?

I only bought it for the articles, honest.

It’s way too Tuesday for me to be feeling so Friday already

This was my phone wallpaper for a long long time, and I’ve only just found the image. Sadly I don’t know who made it can’t credit them: #dq2 #dragonquest2 #midenhall

"What type of Yule/Winter Solstice ritual/magic[k] could I do this year?"

I’m hoping to get out before the rain today. I’m also bringing my raincoat.

It was a spectacular day yesterday!

Such a bridge to cross! #dragonquest #dragonquest2DHD

Yes’m.

It happens with some frequency. Like it won’t happen for a couple of years, then it will be like six or seven times in a couple months. Dehydration and stress seem to be the factor.

To echo a post from earlier this year, reaching the princess never felt so good!

Calf cramp. Yay. Me on floor trying to keep the other muscles unclench whilst I jam my fingers into the cramp until it releases. I am always grateful this didn’t happen while I was driving.

Alright! Congrats and good luck!

Whelp, it’s Monday and week two of the new job. Here’s to hoping I can cobble together access to enough resources to get things moving!

Well done!

Look, even if you don’t see feeding children as good in and of itself (though it totally is), making sure kids aren’t hungry is one of the baseline ways to improve their school experience and help them for life, thereby improving society, the economy, etc. Why wouldn’t we want to do that?
