….this is better than I ever dared to hope??? There’s so much about this that feels representative of my experience. Not 100% of course (obviously, since I’m not a dream-eating species in a fantasy world xD) but it rhymes! Reflects and resonates! I’m thrilled :D youtu.be/eP9NZFD86b4?...

Running my reincarnated Arthurian larp at a con and it's always nearly full by round 2 of signups... but not this time. D: Still 2 more rounds to go, it'll probably be fine. Getting nervous. Theoretically it can run with as few as 9 players. I've just never run it with less than 23 out of 24.

I am so, so excited for this documentary on Parrot Kindergarten and Jen’s fabulous work with her cockatoos! (And there are even some cameos from the non-parrot Pet Kindergarten group I’ve been participating in for the last couple years!) youtu.be/OT_sY-2eOIM?...

Knutepunkt dropped the sneak peek of their programme for attendees and I don’t know how I’m supposed to choose D: I wanna go to *everything* (this is my first KP and I’m so excited, the larp talks/workshops/panels all look so good!)

Feels like I’m going back in time lately, in my online activity, and I’m happy about that. Bsky feels like old twitter. Discord feels a bit like old IRC chatrooms. Tumblr is still Tumblr. Maybe I’ll get back to using Dreamwidth next, or even forums. Who knows?

Playing the new HSR patch and story, and honestly I think it would be straighter if phainon and mydei said 'i do' at an altar compared to what I am seeing here on screen

oh yay, reasonsforhope is over here! Have followed on tumblr for ages and I send therapy clients their way all the time. Anyone know if there a hopeposting/positive news feed on bsky? I haven’t been able to find one (and not sure how to create one effectively, tho I’ll figure it out if need be).

🧪Ooh, alert! Recent research looking at how a friendly (& long) maternal presence promotes maturation of brain territories involved in both social behaviour & physiological regulation IN HORSES, MY FRIENDS! Another paper to support rethinking premature weaning of 🐴. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Artificial intelligence has been almost criminally underused by insect taxonomists. See my ichneumon subfamily classifier for an example of how it can be done easily with museum specimens. #entomology #ichneumonidae #artificialintelligence #taxonomy

aaaand this is why deconstructing is so important. Gotta deconstruct all the ingrained messages and biases, bit by bit. It’s a lifelong process. If you *don’t* continually, systematically work on that… you just recreate your prev religious baggage in your next one or in your secular life.

s n o w (Starlight the mini says hi)

so so so so excited for this, I got to read it in early draft and it’s already SO GOOD, and it’ll only be BETTER with revisions :D

I have been scrolling videos, comments sections, tumblr recaps, etc on this for the last couple hours in utter astonished fascination.

This entire thread is FASCINATING. what. *what.*

how much do you like these tropes? enemies to lovers: 10/10 second chance: 7/10 fake dating: 6/10 friends to lovers: 10/10 age gap: 1/10 with caveats (see reply) found family: 10/10 grumpy x sunshine: 5/10 mpreg: -5/10 slow burn: 10/10 love triangle: 0/10 unless resolved by polyamory

It’s got the only up-to-date, community-sourced, community-reviewed info on *local,* *rare-disease-specific* providers. You can find years-out-of-date info elsewhere. Can sometimes find places with way fewer people sharing experiences. But your best bet for screening providers is FB. It *sucks.*

TE/MO is seriously my favorite new artist. Incredible lyricist. Incredible vocalist. This newest song is *savage.* (If you know EPIC: the Musical, you may know her as Teagan Early, voice of the character Athena. But her independent music, just released in 2024, is *amazing.* don’t miss out on it!)

The young roo’s colors are coming in so beautifully! (Dark Brahma/frizzle bantam cross) And since the two hens who co-hatched and co-raised him are our gentlest, he’s followed their lead, and our flock rooster has been accepting him. He still hangs out with his silkie mom and bantam cochin mom too.

New blog post! I introduce the term "larpefacts" - artefacts from live action role playing - and explore different methods for archiving LARPs. What's a particularly useful larpefact? The humble name badge. florencesmithnicholls.com/2025/01/13/i...

Something I keep in mind regularly is that we don't all need to be fighting the same battles. There are too many fronts for that anyway. Engage those fights most meaningful to you and leave the others to other people.

aaaaWHAT hoyo you are giving me a playable therapist????! I have wanted this for so long 🥹 we’re usually just NPCs and she’s a dreamwalking youkai too??? Yumemizuki Mizuki: Embrace of Enchanting Dreams Clinical Psychologist and Major Shareholder of Aisa Bathhouse #GenshinImpact #YumemizukiMizuki
