The costumes in this were an absolute delight and it was fun to have a little mystery going on. Definitely was looking at Nora's dress like "I want to knit that"

Love the AI obsessed people in the quotes completely missing/ignoring the part where the results suggest AI degrades your ability to do simple tasks and/or lowers your desire to finish them. "Why would I do a math problem if I no longer had AI to do it? This isn't a measure of the real world." But-

My progress on the reading challenges is slower going and I suspect I won't complete them. But since the goal is to check out things I normally might not seek out, any progress is a win.

I had a goal of reading 26 books this year. I'd met last year's goal of 25 so early in the year, but that was largely because I was unemployed until June. I have now met my reading goal for the year (and already exceeded it because I finished another book tonight).

I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

#sotd is a light dot of Dead Leaves, Vetiver, and Hinoki from BPAL. It's got a good balance and I suspect it would layer well; I may try doing so later today.

Note: the website indicates there have been some reformulations and I'm not sure when this perfume dates from, specifically. So the above list may not be exactly right for my little sample. But I would say "boozy fruit and incense" is a pretty solid summary of this scent.

Paulie Ann-Marie Cromatic @polliecromatic.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Tonight's perfume is GLÜHWEIN from Pineward. This was a random pick from the sample bag but pretty nicely fits my bedtime perfume preferences. Notes: cranberry, champaca, cherry compote, raspberry, fir balsam, chocolate, davana attar, oakmoss, tolu balsam, rose, sandalwood, frankincense

Going a bit nontraditional with my perfume choice for the first day of October. #sotd is Penis Penetrating a Vagina in a Pickle Barrel from BPAL. This is a favorite of mine both for the name and the slightly briney lemon peel scent.

In the dream, I was wearing one of those black satin pajama sets and was coming back to the outdoor area where I'd been eating something and found a woman sitting in the spot I'd vacated. She started telling me about how she wore the wrong thing to a medical appointment with a "decoy doctor" and

Took a shower and sprayed Chandlery from Pineward on (discontinued). Notes: Beeswax, Cinnamon, Lavender, Vanilla, Anise, Champaca, Deer Tongue Grass, Carnation, Tuberose and Vetiver. This is a delightfully smoky woods and spices scent. I have been wearing it for over an hour without any fading, too
