I'm really pleased with how my living room looks so far
My living room. Clockwise there are: a bookshelf filled with books, a large two sided wooden door leading to the dining room, another bookshelf, a green velvet chair with a cushion, my plant collection on the window sill, my table, blue paint and bare wood, with matching chairs, a model of the globe sits on the table. The floor is made of wood and the walls are white. There's a blue glass lamp hanging from the ceiling

Got this super cute Halloween candle at Ikea
The south-facing window of my living room, several plants (a strelitzia, a monstera and an aster) are on the window sill. There's a black candle in the shape of a cat sat in a green glass dish between them. To the left there is a green velvet chair that folds out into a bed, with a cushion of the same material and colour on it. In front of the radiator there is a large pachypodium.A black, cat-shaped candle in a green glass dish between several plants on a windowsill

Man I love living up north
A grass covered construction site and in the background a church somewhat obscured by the thick rainA view towards the palace gardens from a terrace at Schwerin PalaceThe sun setting across the mouth of the river Warnow, thick rain clouds are in the process of dissolving Saint Peter's Church at dusk, the stained glass windows illuminated from within and the tower, over 100m tall, "rising, like a second heaven into heaven" as Friedrich Schiller said

The beavers really turned this place around (although I only saw nutrias today, there are beavers in the area and they dammed up the creek creating this pond)

The main purpose of my visit to the zoo was to get some sketches in for my next tattoo. I want to complete the circle of animals around my thigh, kind of a zodiac-garter. Next in line is my favourite fish, the Australian Lungfish

JK Rowling uses her Harry Potter money to fund lawsuits against companies that support trans rights so no, I do not care what Hogwarts house you are in.
Trans lives are more important than Harry Potter.

Phil Ochs wrote about them in the song "A toast to those who are gone"
A screenshot of the lyrics from Spotify. The text reads: 
And over the ocean to the red spanish soil
Came the Lincoln Brigade with their dreams of a victory 
But they fell in the fire of Germany's bombings
And they [fell] 'cus nobody would hear their sad warning
So here's a song to those who are gone
With never a reason why
And a toast of the wine at the end of the line
and a toll of the bell for the next one to die

Just got done yelling at a man at the train station for popping a kid's balloon. Who does that? Especially while I'm nearby having a bad day. (Which is something everyone should always be instinctively aware of, obv)
