Another #boardgame day! This time #Ethnos was my fave, but I really liked the sounds and tactile feels of Seaside.

Star Trek is this weird space-themed workplace drama where no one is allowed to have coffee or a water bottle. (Picard gets tea because he has a private office.) Everyone else is presumably dehydrated all the time, which works out because they have to take an elevator to find the nearest bathroom

OMG everything IS tuberculosis! This is a must read for everyone. It's good for your brain, it's good for your heart, and it's just so, so good.

It's so weird to have a new #watercolor set! I don't know these colors! I don't know their personalities or quirks! Painting with them is like going on a first date or something. (But way more fun than that!)

Board game day! I really enjoyed Shadow Hunters as a social deduction game because you don't have to bluff, it's more strategy and quiet interactions. #boardgames

Some #DnD doodles. You know, knitting as you float downriver to help fix a death curse. Normal things.

Kermit the Frog delivered an inspiring commencement speech at U. of Maryland: "Rather than jumping over someone to get what you want, consider reaching out your hand and taking the leap side by side, because life is better when we leap together"

Needed a transition out of my #wfh day, so I jumped on @scistarter.bsky.social and watched a flower for 5 min for The Great Sunflower Project. Mindfulness + #citizenscience! ♥️🌻

It’s Mary Anning’s birthday, so time to share @katebeaton.bsky.social’s brilliant cartoon again.

Just finished this! Such a sweet, weird love story between nature and tech. I got a bit lost in the third quarter, but it wrapped up very cool. Loved the main characters.

This book was about a pirate and a woman (same person), and it felt so real. It straddled the world of piracy in such an honest and human way. Thank you @rchetypes.bsky.social!

Realized that stuff that was annoying me for always being in the way was actually just being put it in the wrong spot! (I'm sure there's a lesson in there.) Anyway, 5 min #diy project!

Take the fictional characters quiz and post the first four you know! openpsychometrics.org/tests/charac... This was actually a pretty fun process - I appreciate a thoroughly designed quiz like this! ... And mashing these four characters together is pretty on point! 🤷

Please enjoy these shelter pups reacting to getting a kiss. Some are bashful, some have butterflies, and all deserve approximately 10 million more. 14/10 for all

The first 3 letters of 'Sweden' and 'Denmark' spell out 'Sweden.' The remaining letters spell out 'Denmark.'

Finally finished the #Farseer Trilogy! Book 1: interesting world building, there's potential! All well written. Book 2: kind of depressing, dark, and no relief 😮‍💨 (not my cup of🍵) Book 3: first half MC annoying, but then it got interesting and different! Enjoyed the last half of 3 the most of all!

Happy dog, owl-themed brunch with @mbirdface.bsky.social, and an ibis. Fairly successful day trip to Flagstaff.

Wild! Tropical Blast Pop-Tarts (1997-circa 2000): Part of the "Wild!" line of Pop-Tarts, this one had a "tropical" theme, featuring blue and yellow icing, shark-shaped sprinkles, and an orange-strawberry-pineapple-lemon flavored filling

Before having sushi at my favorite place the other day. I like to draw before I eat. When you're very hungry and waiting for your food, time passes much more quickly 🤪 . . #sketchbook #mixedmedia #sketchinghungry #daruma I’m a bit sad that uskweek2025 is over now. I really enjoyed it.
