I have a lot of complaints about this place sometimes, I do. But none of my concerns are that it’s not getting big enough or staying big enough. This mindset is a freaking disease. Everything does not have to be infinitely big, keep getting bigger, grow grow grow in size.

I'm almost finished with the #lostbakedgoods archive. Here's one of my favorites posted 1/2/2019: Pizza Squirrel! I suppose it’s not really “lost” now that Pizza Squirrel snagged the slice. But it was, at one point, lost. 🍕😉

“Desire paths” are unofficial trails, usually bypassing a planned path, that reveal the most convenient route to get somewhere. The people (AKA meanderthals) that tramp along these routes often wear away grass, creating the secondary path Walk this way for more on desire paths (a thread / tread)...

Looking for a good dog bed ramp for this boy. One that runs alongside the foot of (or side) of bed for a low incline. Anyone have one they like and recommend? Our boy hurt his leg the other day. He's fine, but he's also getting older and I'd like to avoid him jumping up/down from that height. 😅

Researching small business groups in the Syracuse area that aren't chamber of commerce-ey, SBA, or start-up-ey. Unfortunately, those seem to be the only sort I'm finding. I've started my own groups to scratch that itch... but it would be nice to just attend rather than build from scratch. 😅

Drive was a big factor in my survival coming up. But when it's the only choice to make ends meet, it feeds into the culture of work that destroys us. Now, I do things differently. Later, I learned (thanks, @karaml.bsky.social) it's the philosophy of lagom. nicolablack.kit.com/posts/adopti...

Do you feel like your logo/visual brand identity represents your business as well as it could? Not feeling confident? An audit will give you clear insight into what's working well + what might need work. I'm discounting my "Light Logo Audit" package (next 3 ordered) by 20%. Link threaded.

Me and my tendons have a troubled relationship. There’s always one somewhere in my body that’s freaking out. This one is for anyone who relates to the feeling of being overly aware of those burning sensations your body can present you with ❤️‍🩹

Insect art, flight paths being filmed. This is grainy as I'm trying different lights that they can't see. I don't want to disturb them, just film them. 👍
