This purple silk PLA (Bambu Lab branded) is very shiny in the light. I also like to rub the textures 😊

Two shiny purple 3D printed toys. One is a sleeping lying purple penguin in three articulated parts for fidgeting. The other is a tiny purple loaf cat, based on Bilbo the cat.

Today was a great day. After working on sitting up and sensory tolerance for the last few months, I finally felt well enough to go out in my wheelchair!

Izzy, a white woman with long dark brown hair and brown eyes, is wearing burgundy glasses and a white dress with large pink flowers.

The difference I feel between when I don't get enough sleep and when I do is obvious to my heart rate tracker (Visible app) apparently (first image taken on Thursday, the second Friday). The sleep quality was not the worst on Thursday, it just wasn't long enough. I felt better after a nap.

Happy World Penguin Day! Though my favourite real species is the little blue fairy, today I'm enjoying the epic eyebrows of the erect-crested penguin. Such style!

Apparently the place I buy books has the same concept of time I do. This isn't due out until Thursday 20th March in the UK (Tuesday 18th March in the US). Izzy has now removed it from my presence to stop me reading it and destroying my hands (I'll be getting the ebook). #EverythingIsTuberculosis

Hi! I'm Danni (they/them). Autistic Genderless Purple Penguin, living my best life in bed due to #ChronicIllness: mostly #SevereME and #POTS. Turns out not being able to walk, sit or stand isn't the end of the world. Less pain would be nice though 😊

I'm hoping I manage a bit more this year 😛 Izzy pushed me to and from the care home I stayed in for respite. Getting there wasn't too bad for her as it was downhill, but I'm still not sure how she got me back 😛

I do have my protector @bilbo.cat to help 😊
