Ugg. Gotta love stress dreams so stressful that you actually realize you should wake up.

Oh no 😭 This new book has a different audiobook narratorrrr 😭. The other five books all had the same one. This is like when they publish later books in a series in a different size or with a new type of paper and they don’t match. This is tragic 😩 I want the other lady back.

A book I had preordered came out today, and I’m pretty sure the notification of its delivery woke me up at one this morning, so I started it then, and read on and off all day and I just finished it. It was pretty good I think. The series can continue to be part of my evening wind down routine.

The Monkees show makes it look like life was so fun in 1966. They’re just goofing around on the beach, riding unicycles, and wearing funny costumes with their buddies. Not a cell phone in sight.

The last week was not without its challenges but wanted to make a quick shop update as I promised: the punk prints are loaded and I have some new goodies on their way. So, stay tuned. ✌🏻 www.gettheorion.com/store-1

Someone in the neighborhood shot off one random firework, so I immediately came here to see whether it had happened.

Y’all know what’s great? The Monkees tv show. 💙 I watched it growing up and I just realized it’s on Tubi so I’ve been rewatching it. It’s so freaking funny. 🤣 I love them 💙

I worked so hard today! And I got done a big project I’d been dilly dallying on. Go me! Too bad the project was making two mini terrariums, one with glow in the dark spiders and one with nano 3D printed rollypollys. 🤣 No pics yet because things aren’t dry yet.

It always weirds me out when Amazon says I don’t need to actually return something and they’ll still refund me. It feels like I’m cheating. I know they obviously do way worse, but I can’t help but feel like a cheater.

I’ve been getting lots of ideas lately for what to make as a door giveaway or craft swap thing for the Star Trek cruise in Feb. I need to commit to one and get to work. I also need to do my cross stitch pattern for it, but I haven’t had any bolts of inspiration yet.

Hey, guess what, I added something else super random to my Etsy shop. I liked the bag I made for my own doll so much that I also made 14 more. 😂 And pretend candy, too. They’re perfect for a 1/6 scale bjd doll. YMMV with other dolls and figurines. Yay Halloween 🎃 www.etsy.com/listing/4576...
Picture taken from above showing a variety of miniature tote bags that look like trick-or-treat bags for Halloween on a white background. There’s also little bags of pretend candy. They are hand sewn from a variety of fabrics and ribbons. They are the size for a small, 1/6 doll like a yosd bjd.

Oh no! Voyager crashed into this sand planet and is getting devoured by a giant crab! Let’s see Future Harry fix things this time. Good luck, Ensign.
Picture of a plastic sandwich container on a desktop. The container has kinetic sand in it, regular sand colored. A 3D printed model of the USS Voyager from Star Trek has its nose stuck in the sand like it crashed. Then there’s also a plastic toy hermit crab placed like it’s crawling onto the wreckage.

Found it! It was at the bottom of a box that had later been filled to the brim with tons of random cardboard bits that I was saving either for crafting or hole punching. 😂

When I got back from the cruise last year I made this whole book for stickers and cards and other flat things I had collected, and I just realized I haven’t seen it since then and I have no idea where it is. 🧐

There’s a set of 5 books that I have as audiobooks and I listen to them for a little while every night as I’m winding down and falling asleep. I just cycle through them over and over again, been doing this for like two years now, so I’ve heard them all the way through probably 20 times or something.

Horrible news, y’all. I came upstairs after dinner planning to lay on my bed and play phone games for hours, but it turns out me from earlier today never folded the clean laundry and it’s all over the bed. 😭 I guess I’ll lay on the floor.

Ugg. I hate that I can’t use Bluesky to do a quick search for breaking local news because the city’s name is still being used for something from national politics that happened here, so you have to wade through posts of people referencing that to find anything useful.

Another thing I keep forgetting to post is this lovely rainbow from a few days ago. It was really clear and you could really make out all the separate colors. It was pretty mesmerizing.
Picture through a window. The bottom half is all green leaves from the tops of trees. Above that there is a slightly cloudy sky with a wide rainbow arching across it. Close up picture of the same rainbow. Now it’s just the cloudy sky with the rainbow stretching across it.

These bins were right next to each other at the grocery store, which I thought was an interesting visual representation of the changing season. Also, does every season have some kind of large round fruit or vegetable that epitomizes it?

The pipeline between all things Harry Potter and hurting trans lives is just that--one pipe. Straight line. Direct funding. Not a complicated diagram. When you don't watch the Harry Potter preview, that helps. Not getting the views helps.

I spent wayyy too much at Michael’s but I’m shopping for like a billion different projects. Plus they have good candies and snacks by the register so I always stock up. Ridiculously, the most expensive thing I bought was balsa wood, and I got the cheapest pack I could. When did that get so pricey? 😬

Happy September, Bluesky-ians. Time to start thinking about Halloween! 🎃 You've got two months, which is plenty of time to stitch up this pattern. I designed it last year, but it's only more relevant now. 🙃 www.etsy.com/listing/4395...

Watching the news this morning and they said something coming up about “jelly roll” and my head shot up because I thought they meant the pens. 😂 Then I thought the food. 😅 But apparently it’s a person? Kind of niche to name yourself after a pen or a cake, but I do understand.

I just read this and realized that Dolly is the only famous/rich person example I can think of of my “empathy tax” theory—that everyday people especially in frontline professions like teachers pay a “tax” for being empathetic because they are face to face with so much need and they can’t ignore it.

every billionaire & tech mogul, they all want to be adored & celebrated without doing the things Dolly did with a fraction of the power & money. What she had, she gave away. I'm sure she was comfortable (& that's good!). But she just relentlessly helped. It's not that difficult. Love. Care. Help. 💚🌸
