Omg

Two peach roses on a tall stem are surrounded by put of focus purple verbena on long stalks.

Four tall stems of neon pink foxgloves rise out of a rusty metal mesh. Behind the flowers, the faded shapes of other plants are visible through the partially transparent plastic of a polytunnel.

Vibrant pink roses in the foreground are set under a dusty blue sky among the many plants, flowers and colours of a garden in full bloom.

A close up colour photograph of a rusted, twisted metal pole. Growing around it is fennel, flowering in vibrant green and yellow. Across the bottom of the frame is some orange twine.

I'm missing the summer already, so please enjoy some of my favourite floral images from the last few glorious months. All shot on film.

Think this is Fuji Superia X-tra 400

So fancy for that time! I love how happy they look

I just signed up for my first lesson in Slovene.

Learning a wildly difficult language that only 2.5 million people in the world speak is very on brand for me

A black and white wedding photo from the 1950s, featuring a happy bride and a pleased looking groom

Also this photo of my grandparents is going up in my kitchen! ❤️

Linocut hand pulled print in black and white of 3 chickadees sitting on a wooden ladder.

Finally getting a chance to put up some of my Mom & Dad’s art in my new apartment.

Living with my art again after years living out of boxes feels so good

Same! One of your posts came up on my discover feed and I was so glad <3

It's rather amazing how many people have a mindset of "terraforming Mars would be perfectly doable" combined with "not polluting Earth beyond our ability to survive is impossible".

At some point you realize that you have aged into saying shit like "it's going to be a scorcher today"

how I feel today knowing the summer is ending

Man saying “Excited to try Bluesky, the friendlier Twitter alternative! Let me just follow some suggested popular accounts and-“

Screenshot of a poster named demonicalf.freak skeeting “THE MODS BANNED DANIEL FOR SPEAKING OUT AGAINST CRULB, MEANWHILE JAMIE IS TALKING SHIT ABOUT ME AND DOGDICK BEHIND OUR BACKS?? ARIEL VALIDATED ONCE AGAIN!!!!!”

Man: wh.. what the Fuck

the Bluesky Experience tm

I like that this website does a bad job of showing the original tweet that's being replied to so your timeline just fills up with weird little snippets like "oh great, let's make babies even bigger" or "what about dog owners who need to use the bus?"

I wonder who I’ll be when I’m not moving to a new country and starting over every year or two?

I’m excited to find out.

at some point on some forum I saw someone say something like, it is amazing how all the people freak out about time travel and going back to the past because one small change can make everything different, yet today we act like we are unable to make changes that matter. I think about it every day.

Thankfully, I really love my new home. Now to move without breaking anything and then unpack 💪🏼

The universe thought it was so funny, making a chronic mover allergic to cardboard…

Just finished packing for move number 35 (ish) lifetime and I am tiiiiiiiired.

Extreme heat, almost no AC for relief, a 5 year old to manage, poor air quality AND I’m allergic to cardboard boxes (no, really)

This better be my last move for a long ass time.

Like… there are things we CAN do as individuals, plus putting pressure on decision makers to make clean air standards a priority for schools & health care. Not to mention, masking in common situations.

Why stop trying?

I met a really lovely woman at the park today, we both have 5 year olds.

She said her life was ruined by Covid - 3 infections. 2 of them left her with potentially lifelong health issues

She looked shocked and a bit embarrassed for me when I told her I’m still trying not to catch it

What the hell

a block isn't a sign you're living in someone's head rent free it's a sign you've been evicted

i think it’s weird when people make fun of other people experiencing a natural disaster for the first time instead of being like huh it’s pretty fucked up natural disasters are popping up certain places for the first time

Also, ‘sitting at a poker table and realizing I’ve forgotten my mask’ is the new, ‘arrived at school without clothes on’ stress dream

Dreamed I was playing in a cash game last night. First hand, the guy to my left was being insufferable so I shoved over a 3-bet, realized the dealer had mucked my cards accidentally but still somehow won the hand.

Inappropriate aggression & deception win the day 💪🏼

If you are a white person who considers yourself to be an anti racist. This blog post is for you.

The number of posts I’ve started to write to engage with things and then realized I felt like an eavesdropping weirdo 🤦🏻‍♀️

I need ‘nice cup of tea and an early night’ bluesky. If you find it, please send up a signal

I’m “it feels rude to respond to posts by people I don’t know” years old.

Bluesky makes me feel like an undercover old person trying to fit in with the youths.

I wish there were a meme for that but maybe memes are over now, idek 🤷🏻‍♀️

The water Lilly pond at Park Tivoli in Ljubljana, slovenia in full bloom.

Living in slovenia is amazing, no doubt. The mountain ahead of me in terms of learning to speak Slovene feels like A LOT right now, though.

“Im going to make choices to make life easier,” she said

“Im going to stop moving to random countries,” she said 🤦🏻‍♀️
