Me, knitting Saga's jumper from Alan Wake 2 and explaining circular knitting to my partner: It's not a loop; it's a spiral.
My knitting work in progress of Saga Anderson's jumper from Alan Wake 2. It's a muted orange-red mainly with dark grey, pink and light grey colour work.

I'm having the anxiety, so I drew a thing. #artsky #art #MassEffect
A pencil and ink drawing of a hannar from Mass Effect. Is it Blasto? Could be, but they're not holding a gun. Maybe Blasto is facing left, there's a slight green glow around their legs from some sci fi lighting coming from the right. The background is an orange starburst against purple.

We need a hero! Bonnie Tyler has just died... and this is how The Mirror is choosing to remember her. (Not surprised but still disappointed)
A screengrab from an article showing 2 images. The first is one of her performing (big hair, red jacket, microphone, big emoting) and the second is from a photo shoot (plunging black shirt with boobage, yellow background). It would be fine but this image has been cropped so we can only see from her chin down, with her cleavage in the centre.

It took me longer than I thought to find this image of 2 toilets in the same room, because my search was filled with toilet cubicles. Fortunately, most places of business also believe in cubicles for toilets, making this toilet obsession the terfs have very weird.
The image shows two toilets side by side, one with the seat raised, the floor is tiled (and looks like it hasn't been cleaned very well with any regularity), and the corner of a sink unit is on the right hand side. Hand hold railings can be seen mounted to the wall above and beside the one of toilets, suggesting it is an addition to a normal disabled toilet facility.

LibreWriter: Writing a book? Me, who opened LibreWriter to do exactly that: *This is a sign*
A screenshot of a Tip of the Day from LibreOffice Writer:
Writing a book? LibreOffice master document lets you manage large documents as a container for individual Writer files. On the left is the obligatory light bulb image that has to go with any random tips.

I got Savage Crowns, the final in the Savage Rebellion trilogy, by Matt Wallace (@mattfnwallace.bsky.social) so I'm re-reading the first 2 books. I'D FORGOTTEN HOW AMAZING THEY ARE! From the sentence level to chapter titles to characterisation to the badass women being badass, I love it all.
All three books from the Savage Rebellion Trilogy, with the most recent, Savage Crowns, towards the front. They've been posed on an old cat tower (but you can't really see it). I'm partway through the second book, Savage Bounty, and my bookmark with a pewter bat and moon is visible. (There are no bats in the books-that I've seen so far- but there is a moon.)--Photo by me, M Nesce Drake

Happy International Women's day. Behold an international woman, Janey Godley, stating facts on a beach in Scotland.
Janey Godley, a white woman wearing a pink floral shirt with blonde hair, is walking towards the camera and high-fiving a cop wearing a baseball cap. She's also holding a sign saying "TRUMP IS A CUNT"
