Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Casual Restorer's moment of hubris: Got my hands on a clock from the 50s that needed some internal work and resetting of the hands. No problem. Except for one thing... It's a radium clock. I honestly should've known that by the color of the hands but I was thrilled that it still was ticking... 120
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 28/08/2026We just picked up some great burritos--pastor for me, lengua for K--from a food stand called Tacos El Fugoncita off of Hwy 99 in Tigard. Man working the grill was a master of burritos, grilling the cheese between the tortillas & the woman was sweet. Happy tummies! 010
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Noooo! Ouch, ouch, ouch. I have a real fear of slippery surfaces after having to acquire this ankle last November. Which, ofc, now needs all the metal removed from it because it's causing problems. This stuff stinks. Hope your knee recovers. 120
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Watching the marketing response to post-COVID changes is so very fascinating and concerning. It used to be "hangry" but now hunger causes brain fog. That and probiotics in everything probably due to post-COVID digestion troubles. 140
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Holy shit, the article about COVID causing structural changes to the brain is even on Facebook. Weird living in a world where I'm no longer the crazy one. 010
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 06/08/2026He continues: "I remember how bad it was a couple years ago when the sun was all orange & you could see it everywhere. Awful." You can see it everywhere today. There is no sky. All heat & smoke. The sunlight? Orange. The sun? Muted. If he noticed the little things then, why not today? 131
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Update: The creep gave me a black eye along with bruising at my temple and scalp. My eye is still discolored 8 days later. 110
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 14/06/2026Also saw probably at least 10 people wearing masks in the small venue. Smart and awesome crowd. 020
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 14/06/2026Moon Walker in Portland was amazing. Super talented. I also probably damaged my hearing. 😂 100
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 22/03/2026Nearly was in a head on collision today because of a driver who started turning left but randomly decided to turn right midway, driving down the center median before driving straight at me in my lane (where I quickly moved out of the way) only to attempt a failed left turn, reverse, & go left. 100
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 14/03/2026Realized a while ago that if the world is going to go mad, go mad with it but only in the best ways. So I'm making wild crowns. Might wear them casually at the grocery store bc fuck it. IDK 180
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 12/03/2026Well, this is depressing. They are SO CLOSE in grasping it. SO CLOSE. 1213
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 10/03/2026It's been a while since the YT algorithm decided to spam the 15 minute song, "Exist" by Avenged Sevenfold one after the other but here we are again... 000
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 10/03/2026COVID turned my 83 year old dad into a meme lord but this one is actually hilarious. Enjoy. 030
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 08/03/2026Not on X anymore but spotted this floating around. Holy shit. Meanwhile, Paula Scanlan is whinging about how "concerning" people wearing masks in 2026 are. Transphobic ghoul there. What began in 2020 that killed a chunk of disabled people? COVID. It's COVID. 040
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 02/03/2026🥁🥁🥁 Ta-da!! OMG she kicks ass. Her one regret was being hasty in cutting the squares so that they weren't all even but damn for not knowing what she was drawing, that's pretty damn photorealistic. 😂 140
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 23/02/2026Here's Oregon's statewide COVID wastewater data. The line? People testing. It cratered to the ground even as its still being detected in the wastewater. Thinking this is all done and over is lying to oneself. It's still a problem & it's impacting fetuses, elderly, & the vulnerable. FFS mask 1198
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 19/02/2026Likewise for "littlestjeff@yahoo.com. I see emails that are sent from his main accounts to his littlestjeff yahoo account but that's it. Also in 2007. 010
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 19/02/2026Where are the emails from this Epstein gmail account that he created in 2007? 110
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 19/02/2026So Epstein's type based on this person's statements about their "pretty friend" is pretty, disconnected from their family & needs money. Gotcha. Fits the reports to a tee. jmail.world/thread/vol00... 100
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 17/02/2026Gets weirder. He had 2 accounts with Match. One under jeeproject and the other one? Sultan175. Sultan. 100
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 13/02/2026Epstein to unknown who was hired to do "clean up" for him. "It is not right that every month there is some new reason. I would appreciate you fulfilling your pledge to me." Pledge for WHAT exactly? This is research on brain manipulation using frequencies. Was that on Epstein's dime? 100
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 06/02/2026Not brass. Chrome and brass. The moment I realized what I was dealing with, I took great care to not restore too much. Just enough patina to show its age but not so much that it's unrecognizable. Probably Maison Bagues. God I love what I do for a hobby. I find beauty things that were forgotten. 130
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 06/02/2026I found a beauty thing. At first it looked like just another cheap brass table but its balance of design stopped me. The tempered glass? Thick, beautiful and subtly colored. That finish that looked like worn brass? Too light of color. 130
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 01/02/2026Snipped from Reddit. Someone accidentally drove into the local 7-11. Grocery run the other night showed a bunch of high risk maneuvers by drivers. Combine that with my experience w the v crazy driver that nearly struck me 3 times have to wonder if this is the flavor of the current wave of COVID? 100
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 30/01/2026To the "anecdotal evidence" person, I pointed out the two articles discussing the research & provided them with the wastewater surveillance data showing the protracted waves of COVID that likely were outbreaking in schools during that time. We're a good state that does try to stay home when sick. 110
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 27/01/2026Increased risk taking behaviors? Executive function impairment affecting spatial awareness? I really hate living not far from train tracks but at least this one wasn't trapped on the track and didn't result in the crossing arm getting struck by the train. 020
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 21/01/2026Never seen green gas in any so-called LTL weaponry. Anybody ever see this before? Spotted on Reddit. #minnesota 010
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 10/01/2026Her name is Lif of Ragnarok. We knew there was a reason why this werecat wannabe needed saving from the shelter. (Forgive our kitchen. We were in the process of renovation that was paused due to surgeries. ) Might need to change her description from werecat to meercat. IDK. Happy Caturday. 071
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 07/01/2026Just had my 1 year post op. Total success. Everything is fusing very well. He laughed about how I ended up with more metal in my ankle this time. His recommendation: stop needing metal in my body and aim for medals instead. Lol 050
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Well, we've entered the timeline where even the free animated movie options on YT are depressing. 👀 000
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 03/01/2026Overlay collage on mass shootings in the US by my uncle, Robert Wagoner. It's a gut punch but a needed one. He's a retired architect & artist. Alt text has his caption and comments about it along w the description. We really need to do something about gun violence. 020
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 08/12/20251 year Post op CT scan of my spinal fusion is in. No failures. No fracture. Screws firmly in place. Hardware in place. Optimal results! Don't have a pic of the most recent imaging but this is what was wrong & what my fab neurosurgeon did to correct it. 330
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 07/12/2025The face of a woman who broke her ankle in 3 places, suffered complications from anesthesia, intestinal complications and a severe allergic reaction to the meds. I'm victorious but also so very done with all that noise. No more complications, tyvm. 290
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 24/11/2025If you're a cat owner, you know exactly what she was doing regardless of the innocent act. Even with broken ankles, cats are gonna cat. 010
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 23/11/2025Happy Caturday! Just woke from my nap to my Lif snoozing on the guard kitty job. She's been watching over me with my broken ankle for days. 060
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 21/11/2025They made a mini gurney for my ankle as they lifted me, screening,onto the actual gurney. The remainder of my walk in the park was strapped on a gurney & hating every bump. Trimalleolar fracture, oblique and vertical. First bone I've ever broken in my life. Radiologist called me an overachiever. 010
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 21/11/2025But then my left foot started sliding on the leaves, down the slope. I tried to ground my step by pushing down firmly only to hear a sound like a gunshot crack. I managed to ease onto my side as I slid down, leg first, the slope to near the water's edge. 100
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 21/11/2025Something red caught my eye and it was an even prettier mushroom. I trudged my way through the leaves on the ground to take a few pictures of it. But then, I saw another even more beautiful mushroom just a little bit further away. 110
Steph @observingangel.bsky.social · 21/11/2025As I walked along the path, I spotted a tremendous orange and cream mushroom the size of a salad plate. In awe, I ventured off of the path to take a picture of it. 100
