another one bites the dust (me seeing that knitting for olive was acquired by private equity)

sarah 🧁 @sarahesterman.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

that new purple kindle is pretty but my current kindle works just fine and also my next ereader (when this one bites the dust) probably won't even be a kindle, so 🤷‍♀️ #booksky

i got my septum pierced today and i was so worried going into that i wasn't cool enough to get my septum pierced but my bff (who went with me) affirmed that i am indeed cool and also that it looks like it should have always been there. and i'm choosing to believe her

reading "is this a cry for help?" by emily austin and the mc's therapist just said to her: "i'm not sure it matters whether life feels meaningful. i think it matters whether you find it worthwhile" and that kinda just blew my mind? #booksky

to drug our cat for a vet appt, we just wrapped her in a towel burrito and my partner held her while i attempted to push the liquid gabapentin into her mouth with a syringe anyway she spit some of it out and it landed in *my* mouth and that was a level of intimacy i hoped to never share with my cat

it's time for a new phone but all of my options are disappointing

i either need to get a new phone this year or replace the battery in my iphone 14 pro and it makes more sense to get a new phone but like why are all they so big? i have little hands. i want a little phone!

i've been looking at the light phones (and similar products) that don't have apps and just have the basics, but i can't help but think my phone could already be a light phone if i just didn't have all the apps on it

I’m v proud of some of my recent #pottery wips

A work table in a pottery studio features three greenware pieces. One is a bowl made to look like a bear with stars in its eyes. One is a bowl made to look like a cat with big starry eyes. The final, sitting on a banding wheel, is a mug made to look like a bee

I’ve nearly fainted/fallen in public multiple times in the last week bc of dysautonomia so I should probably use my cane while symptoms are so bad but my brain is saying I can’t possibly since I’m otherwise able to be mobile (like at the gym) internalized ableism is SO WEIRD
