Ah, we have a certain amount of overlap XD

Post-haircut selfie from yesterday that I'm particularly pleased with:

Haven't committed, but contemplating these (the A5 cover to use with my Aura Estelle planner)

Is this the cover you're talking about? Because it's definitely what caught my eye, also at maybe too young an age than ideal. 😅

Photo of an edition of "Beasts" by John Crowley, showing a burly man with a leonine face, taking off (or putting on) a plaid shirt over a white tee and faded jeans. Next to him is a person of ambiguous gender with curly red hair, wearing a baggy brown jacket. It is snowing.

Pleasantly surprised that my preorder of @wiswell.bsky.social 's latest novel arrived on release day!

Which is weird, because I only started playing this year! XD But I was an 80s kid, with an older brother who got into TTRPGs early, so I can believe there was a strong influence.

You were doing this long before it was cool. You were doing it when it was actively uncool. You probably got beaten up for it once or twice. But you’re never happier than when you’ve got a calculator in your pocket and a massive black-and-white reference manual full of complex tables to represent the effects of wind resistance and gravity on your bullets (by calibre) in your backpack.

I still have the small glass-bottomed pinch pot I made at a workshop there, years ago.

The first thing I think of whenever I see photos of Trump banners on federal buildings.

Still from G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra, showing the White House with two long banners being unfurled on the front. The banners are black with red snake eyes.

Reskeet with a tweet you still think about

A tweet by Alistair Coleman from Feb 27 2017, showing an advertisement for a "worship and healing revival" called Britain Arise, but the I in Arise is a yellow human figure that contrasts so much with the letter forms that it doesn't look like part of the word. So it looks like "arse".

Sharing some beauty: flowers outside the co-op extension office.

Large yellow peonies in full bloom, against green foliage.

Pale pink peonies, some in bloom, some in bud

Ruffled peonies in full bloom. They're a vivid...fuschia, maybe?

It's kind of scary to be visible, right now, as a trans person. But I'm so much more *myself* now and I don't want to go back. #TransDayOfVisibility #TDOV

I've never been able to watch those two episodes, I was SO mad about it.

A still from the TV series "Person of Interest" focused on Detective Joss Carter, played by Taraji P. Henson. She is turned three-quarters towards the camera to look askance at Harold Finch, played by Michael Emerson. He's great, but Carter's the reason for this post.

Meanwhile I got "Social Butterfly" which is not something I'm called very often. XD jyc.dev/at

On the left is an arc graph showing about three-quarters of my posts are replies. Under the graph is a butterfly emoji, and the text: "The Social Butterfly Conversationalist: You're fluttering from conversation to conversation, pollinating discussions with your replies. Your strength lies in pure dialogue, weaving words into meaningful exchanges." To the right is a circle graph showing that the wide majority, maybe 90%, of my posts are text-only.

Put the sticker a little too low for a good selfie, whoops 😅

White guy with a black KFN94 covering his whole lower face, wearing a blue short-sleeve button-up with an abstract black print. An "I Voted" sticker made from a child's drawing, showing a stylized US flag over green hills, is mostly visible on his right chest.

If you see this post a vampire.

A screenshot of Deborah Duchêne as Janette DuCharme from the 90s TV series Forever Knight. She is a white woman with dark hair in a bouffant updo, shown from breastbone up, in a strapless dress, a black ribbon choker, and big dangling earrings. She has sharply defined, arched brows and smoky eye makeup.
