ha! You sounds like me in the last year. Many of the thoughts & feelings I had growing up I thought were standard.. were not. Embracing my differences has made me SO happy! Now I'm learning to work with myself. Oh - I'm 52. Female, minority, uncontrolled masking (but I see it now).

THE FLESH KING will be out this Tuesday! It continues Ford, Neuland, and Tilda's story back home in New York, where they are blackmailed into hunting down an immortal killer. Also, my cat says please buy it because we're out of chicken and chicken is life. 😿

Hello! Yeah, I'm not on the socials as much right now. Hope you're doing well

Well, I'm happy for you and that the problematic organ was removed. society can be bullheaded about some things. Heal quickly and hopefully the loss of the organ will have minimal impact on quality of life (per YOUR definition)

I will respect your privacy, but not going to lie. My own health issues have taught me that we can't just count on doctor's knowledge. Other people's experiences can provide a crucial clue. I'm glad you're recovering, though. Very happy!!

That is wonderful news. I've been following you for a while so I've seen some of the bumps in the road You have to deal with. Did you share any info on what it was? I'm always looking for that rare bit of information that might help someone or myself.

Heliaa @heliaa.bsky.social · 27/08/2025

I've been offsite for quite some time, scrolling to see what info you shared on this. Glad you're recovering well. Assume this was related to the issues you've had this past year? Hoping all is resolved. Take care of yourself! (and your cute l'il boy)

True story: my dad bought himself a watch to take his bp. He took it constantly. Went to doc, bp was high, doc told him to stop taking his bp.

It's been an age since I've been here. Book work, then found an online game where I ran into a bunch of wonderful people. Been spending way too much time there just chatting - but it's nice cause I get to be myself 100%. No masks. Not that I think so - I don't control mine, as I learned last week.

@lycomorpha.bsky.social When I first ran into you and you shared your love of moths, I wanted to share this pic with you, but I couldn't find it! Just came back in my FB memories. When I Googled the image, it said it was a Tolype moth. - just beautiful!

A very furry looking moth. The antennae are large, white and fuzzy. The wings, which are closed around the body have horizontal stripes, the larger being a dark brown and the thinner ones are white. I could describe it as having brown wings with two white horizontal bars in teh middle, then some more white at the end of the wings.
The head is brown and with the two white antennae, it looks like a vertical brown line.
The butt/tail of the moth is sticking out below the wings. Very fuzzy, a mix of white and brown.

idk how that movie appealed to people, except for the special effects. Anyway.. yeah, women in need of rescue happens less in action movies nowadays. Nice change

Heliaa @heliaa.bsky.social · 16/06/2025

Well now I don't feel too bad. Both characters are named Nate. I thought I was really messing things up. Especially thinking of the conversations I've had with one of the authors. I was freaking out that I had misnamed his character.

Heliaa @heliaa.bsky.social · 16/06/2025

Ever feel like your brain's tied in a knot when you pick up a book expecting one character find out it's another character and try and figure out how you got the messed up but now you're trying to remember what the first characters storyline was all about.

Heliaa @heliaa.bsky.social · 16/06/2025

And preferably not the typical trope about women being demur and needing rescuing. Do not get me started on stereotypes. All my life people have tried to fit me in them and I don't. For the record I like WW84 and Halle Berry's Catwoman.

Heliaa @heliaa.bsky.social · 16/06/2025

Are you kidding me?! I didn't want to see Titanic. Couldn't stand DiCaprio back then and I'm really not into romance. I'm an action type of woman. True I like the occasional romance but it better have a really good story. +

Heliaa @heliaa.bsky.social · 16/06/2025

I can't remember if we saw that one in the theater or not but the only reason we saw is because my husband wanted to see the ship sink. Else would not have ever watched it.

Heliaa @heliaa.bsky.social · 15/06/2025

GIVE ME!!!!! There's something about the old covers... Thankfully, I started collecting before he became so mainstream. But that one - I don't have that one. I want that one. Gimme. Because you like me :-D *lol*

Heliaa @heliaa.bsky.social · 15/06/2025

Then make sure it's good! I thought the Zack Snyder cut was WAY WAY WAY better than the released version. I've watched it more than once. Better character development, better story. But especially the character development!

110

Heliaa @heliaa.bsky.social · 14/06/2025

Oh yeah, don't even have to think about it. Will not be watching. Did just read tho, nearby town officially opening a veterans memorial they've built.... Maybe for that?

Thanks for the reminder I still need to check it out. I Loved the original

Found an interesting thread where people were discussing The danger of being in a room with a bat. This sad story was brought up as proof that you may be bitten and have no proof. The lesson is if you're ever in a room with a bat get a rabies shot. Also the shots are not what they were in the past.

Do you have to work it until you remove all the grit? Or do some watercolors have grit and that's just the way it is?

Heliaa @heliaa.bsky.social · 10/06/2025

I recently rewatched and I loved watching for when it was a stunt double but then also when they changed your boots from heels to flats. That always made me smile.

You're right big difference I don't mind reading up on ppls personal business lol but sharing of articles and things like that feels less personal. Although I have to admit I do share stuff so often it's to share a smile or push an artist I like. But I do post my own stuff. Either way no one cares

Heliaa @heliaa.bsky.social · 09/06/2025

I use mute for people I want to follow, but they post WAY too much. I have them in a list and I can check on them when I want to do a lot of scrolling. (no John, you aren't there. Yeah, they post way more than you!)

I'd hardly call this an echo chamber! I've seen people who would vote for the same person get into arguments and block one another. Some of those are people wording things badly and the other person just looking for a troll.

My friend of Asian descent friend did teach me the finger method for measuring the water.. but I'm more comfy with a measuring cup. But I *do* own a rice cooker :-P And I love it! We use it weekly.

@kithrup.bsky.social have you read any of the Preternatural Chronicles by Hunter Blain? Very quirky to say the least. I wouldn't call the series (I'm only on book 2) a masterpiece but it is fun. Finished book one and went straight to book two and I think there are 10.

I think Casey had a warm smile for everyone. As long as I've known him, I didn't realize how many lives he's touched. I'll miss trying his new concoctions at the merc.

That's something I'm noticing here - no one wants to share the feeder, excepted mated pairs. Maybe if I get a hanging feeder and they can be around it, not see each other.... Gotta admit - feeders are addictive! I love the action. I'm currently trying to learn to tell the diff btwn my BlueJays.

a.co/d/ffIxwDg a book can't be all that bad if the author has at least two shout outs to one of my fave authors, @richardkadrey.bsky.social. I'm still reading but it has an interesting main character lol. Though I will say I didn't care for the Cosby reference...

I feel lucky that he was a part of my life. But right now, I'm feeling.. what? My heart hurts. I'm bewildered. I keep kicking myself that I should've gone there this weekend to say bye.. but that makes no sense. Always let those in your life know you appreciate them. I'm glad I did, but still...
