gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Thanks for this, helps me to see it’s kind of the same problem as slop art. As an artist the process is what I’m focused on, that’s where I generate new understanding, the end result without that doesn’t mean anything to me. 110
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I used to not really think about it but we went to the 40th anniversary event and i realized how deeply it affected my neighborhood and my neighbors. A huge loss for the heart of Fillmore St. and SF. Devastating. 0311
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 17/09/2026I don’t use it for self defense, I use it to file my nails. I fantasize about how I could use it in a terrorist hijack because of trauma. And yes, a terrorist could pack a nail file, but it’s a pretty crap weapon for a major attack. 010
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 17/09/2026I carry a pointy Diamond Deb stainless nail file that has never been taken by security and I used to think about who I’d offer it to or where to aim if I had to use it myself. 171
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 08/09/2026A lot of people think creation is a final piece, but it’s a journey and you can’t know where it leads if you don’t start it. 060
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 08/09/2026I had what I’d describe as dental surgery level female procedure last week. Obviously I immediately started a terrible and soothing horror movie when I got home. 220
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 07/09/2026I do freelance admin, the first thing I do for any job of any kind is create simple online folders and start naming every document something like “2026-09-07-title-publisher name-contract-signed.pdf”. I also rec saving any receipts and photos of checks with the $amount included in the file name. 0110
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Served it’s-it’s at our wedding instead of wedding cake, and will never understand why more people don’t do this. 130
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 28/08/2026I found a Rarity-80 word worth 94 pts in OUTLIER. EAGLE EYES · 806 points · 10 rare words. OUTLIER: the daily word hunt where the rarest words win. Can you beat me? playoutlier.com/s/6WPTZRplayoutlier.comOUTLIER · Day 100palgus scored 806 on Day 100. Can you beat them? 000

gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 26/07/2026Cleaned my aging light pink adidas like this last month (similar cleaning instructions with helpful video) and they look brand new again. Weirdly, one of the most helpful webpages I’ve found in years. 000
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 19/07/2026You might like undertone, it’s not bad really I just found the character/premise a yawn, even tho it does have some catholic creepiness, it was NOT ENOUGH catholic creepiness, we can discuss if you watch. 010
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 19/07/2026Points off for only a single person on screen for 75% or more of the movie (hated undertone). 110
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 19/07/2026YES. Extra points for anything with mystical catholic-ish demon/priest/nun content, past lives, or hilarious body horror antics. 110
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 19/07/2026I keep watching the most terrible horror movies lately, some so dull i have to fast forward to get them over with, hopefully you’ll have a few good bad ones for me 110
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 10/07/2026Had someone say they had no idea when they would arrive in town because they don’t use a cell phone and lost my mind. Speed and distance are knowable variables, I used to be on time for appointments all over the Bay Area with nothing but a paper map. 060
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 09/06/2026The entirety of George Winston’s December album makes me want to bash myself in the head with a food court tray. 000
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 09/06/2026Slow burn scary. Someone said no jump scares, but there are - though when it made me jump and scream I was DELIGHTED about it. It’s funny enough that you can believe everything will be ok, keeps the stress level down for me. 180
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 01/06/2026This is a cat check point. Relinquish your most recent cat picture on your phone 130
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 28/05/2026My favorite YA book in the early 80s when I was a tween was written in 1943 - the story begins in 1912. What pulled me in and fascinated me was relating emotionally to an historical character, the whole selling point is that human experience is universal across time. 010
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 25/05/2026Years ago I woke up one morning and had to make this metallic pincer skirt I dreamt. 1584
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 11/05/2026Can’t tell you how many people in high school I convinced that Bon Jovi means “good gravy” in Italian. 1330
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 09/05/2026It is really funny, everyone is so earnestly goofy. AND I screamed out loud in delighted fright this week. 150
Reposted by gusHildur Knútsdóttir @hildur.bsky.social · 28/04/2026I think it makes so much sense that as the world seems to turn shittier with each passing day, we simultaneously see the rise of horror literature and cozy literature. It’s just two kinds of people, finding their ways to deal with all the mess. 25858203
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 12/04/2026my 5c was the last one I could use without chronic pain from over stretching fingers. 020
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 12/04/2026For you. It is just right for you. I can barely use the smaller 6.1" iphone one handed. I can not grow larger hands, I can only wish for a smaller phone. 220
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 24/03/2026“Bargaining with nothing, too late” - it’s a good line. Bad situation, good line. 010

gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 16/03/2026Alcatraz, Angel Island, Fort Point, Ana Nuevo for the elephant seals and my favorite, the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum. 150
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 12/03/2026If I have a choice of seats on transit and one is next to another masked person I take it. It's not always random. Solidarity and safety. 020
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 12/03/2026I'm the only person who masks at rehearsals and events in my volunteer work. They continue to have regular superspread events (that include elderly members). Took me a while to figure out a response to "We're sad when we can't see your pretty face!" but recently settled on, "I don't trust you." 000
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 12/03/2026Looks like she’s ready to star in a Whatever Happened to Baby Jane remake. I’m sure it’s fine. 040
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 11/03/2026Apologies to the neighbors who heard me screaming for help - this tiny succulent fell over while I was vacuuming dead leaves off the coffee table and rolled into the suction zone. 030
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 07/03/2026I’ll be around tomorrow afternoon if you want to moan at someone 010
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 07/03/2026Ugh sorry to see this, pal. I wish I had advice, I was always terrible at getting over it. I did always mostly get over it, but it never felt like I would. I spent a lot of time in the mire. 110
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 06/03/2026My unwritten dissertation topic is how lack of early years art education funding/lack of learned art appreciation skills leads directly to the twin horrors of Michael Flatley and Celtic Woman shows. 000
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 28/02/2026(I think brown would be fine though, they still have that modern 90s vibe to me, but plenty of warmth in the space.) 000
gus @auntiesis.bsky.social · 28/02/2026What restaurant? Brown is warmer, homey, but if it’s a more modern decor I’d go with black. 110
