Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 25/08/2026I’ve had to step back and get my news (at least the national/international stuff) basically via word of mouth, it’s just been way too upsetting. But I think I’m following enough of the kind of people who’ll let me know when it’s time for the revolution 😅 010
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 17/05/2026Apparently when I’m drunk and remember I have new black eyeshadow I have to go and be real gothy about it 😁 030
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 04/07/2025I think I found it. It’s honestly hilarious. open.spotify.com/track/5aLD8C...open.spotify.comSportsViagra Boys · Street Worms · Song · 2018 000
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 04/07/2025Sometimes the spotify algorithm almost tricks me into thinking it likes me. I wish I wasn’t about to fall asleep so I could listen to this... 120
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 30/05/2025It seems that the time of reading glasses is finally upon me… 250
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 10/04/2025I’m almost done watching #ThePitt and perhaps for the first time I’m heading right for the gen fluff fic. I just need Dr. Robbie to have a REALLY GOOD DAY 😭😭😭 020
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 09/04/2025And I have to keep on eating! Every day! (I do love food sometimes, but having to feed myself so often is a bit much) 130
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 31/03/2025A very kind bus driver honked at me today. He was next to me at a stop light, and went to some effort to let me know I’d left my chicken and pie on top of my car 😂 I would have gone through my life wondering what the hell happened to them… 140
Reposted by LytheaDavid Roberts @volts.wtf · 31/03/2025As I've been shouting for longer than I can even remember now, the ill health of the US information environment is the Ur-problem. No other political problems are solvable until it is addressed. You can't solve problems in reality when most citizens of your democracy aren't living in reality. 1128294
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 29/03/2025actually there’s some great lyrics in there about wanting a revolution! It does get a little overshadowed by the catchy chorus though, it’s true 110
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 28/03/2025It’s so good though! I don’t know why I thought it was a ridiculous vegetable for the first 40 years of my life. It’s just so solidly itself. 110
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 28/03/2025That’s definitely a valid option! But then I finally realized that I’m just too tired for that anymore. My facebook people can be exposed to a spicy fanfic or two, it won’t kill them. hopefully. lol 010
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 28/03/2025To clarify: I had The Hobbit read to me about a year after I read the Narnia series (which was pretty much immediately after learning to read). But I started LOTR just wanting to read more about Bilbo (who was this Frodo guy). I didn’t try again until 2001, and then read the whole series in 3 days. 010
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 28/03/2025Who are the five writers that made you? C.S. Lewis Mercedes Lackey Octavia Butler Charles de Lint J.R.R. Tolkien in roughly chronological order 210
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 28/03/2025I know also that part of the problem is that in the past I had a fairly clear divide: fb was for real life friends/family, twt was for fandom friends. And now everyone’s in the same place, but it turns out it doesn’t matter, you can all know my multiplicity of facets, we’ll all be ok! 120
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 28/03/2025Have you considered attaching some fluorescent tape to it? I literally lose things like all the time, I never could have thought of this if it was my own problem… 100
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 28/03/2025I kind of had a big ::shudder:: about the demise of twitter, and even though I made an account here I kinda forgot for a while that I do actually like a bit of social media. So yeah, I’m choosing now to exist here. Give it a try. 4100
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 28/03/2025I very nearly lost three fingers to a bandsaw in college because I went to class before fully processing the news of the day. The ER docs said they could see my tendons, but they weren’t damaged 😳 020
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 13/01/2025I just learned the answer to a question that I didn’t even think to ask! The reason we have 24 hours in a day is that it was the Babylonians who invented the sundial, and they counted by 12s, not 10s. The Greeks didn’t bother to do a redesign when they stole the idea haha 040
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 04/01/2025I’ve learned as a sculptor that I can sketch an idea, but if I try to make a 3D test of concept (aka maquette) all my inspiration will go into that and I’ll feel compelled to do something different and usually worse for the “final piece” 😅 010
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 04/01/2025Weirdly one of the best AND cheapest is gf Barilla. It’s made with corn as well as rice (if memory serves), so it gives a little variety to the gluten free diet. It’s not something most westerners have to worry about, but rice does have naturally occurring arsenic, especially brown. 100
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 04/01/2025lol, him too! But my deep nerdiness is showing, this was actually about my original Kevin Smith, the guy from Xena. Probably took me a decade to switch my default association in conversation over to the guy who did Clerks. 120
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 04/01/2025this actually makes so much sense — this started out as a fandom space for me when everyone was leaving twitter, but now my “real life” facebook friends are showing up here too, and I’m not entirely sure what to do about the merging of my worlds 😳 120
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 18/12/2024Sometimes The Castle comes up on the image rotation at work, and every time I’m re-delighted that I got to see it in person with @ladylark.bsky.social! 040
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 28/11/2024gosh, this one photo just convinced me I should have gone into debt to attend 😆 010
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 28/11/2024yay toast! I impulsively bought “pumpkin butter” today, I hope I get some magical toast out of it. 110
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 07/10/2023I somehow relate from personal experience, but what does that even mean? what’s the right kind of nerd?? 110
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 06/10/2023I just can’t help it, I’m so curious — how did you previously think it came to be? 020
Lythea @lythea.bsky.social · 06/10/2023GOD. I watched awesome new episodes of #OFMD #Loki and #WoT all in one night, and I am entirely overwhelmed. How the hell am I supposed to get to sleep now?? (also, does this app even do hashtags? I’m not very good at this yet) 030
