I wish the posts were reversed, but good enough

Look what one of the servers made for me!

A chocolate cake with frosting rosettes alternating with fresh strawberries and Ferraro Roche candies around the edge. In the center, pink frosting was used to write Happy Birthday Heidy

When your commitment to Pride is bone-deep

A small brick house on a busy Denver street. It's pretty unremarkable, except for the 12 ft skeleton holding a full size Progress Pride flag. I fucking love my neighborhood!

I'm reading A Discovery of Witches. A vampire is telling a babywitch how to make a special herbal tea for her health. 🎶Drink 1 cup a daaaayyy🎶 And what's in this special tea?

A page of text. The important part is a list of herbs which reads:
Parsley. Ginger. Feverfew. Rosemary. Sage. Queen Anne's lace seeds. Mugwort. Pennyroyal. Angelica. Rue. Tansy. Juniper root.
You wouldn't think a vampire would still need to know how to make birth control tea, but it's hilarious she isn't telling the witch what properties those herbs have

Yup

The cover of The Yiddish Policemen's Union by Michael Chabon.
A black center with white and red shadow text for the author's name, a red line title and red drawings of a cityscape, surrounded by a blue border with Alaskan Native symbols and a stylized gun

This may be as close as I ever get to having all my ducks in a row

In the gap between a stereo speaker and a phrenology head is my miniatures collection. A yellow, a green, and then another yellow miniature plastic duck are facing a tiny red and white mushroom. Behind them on the shelf are a red pyramid, 2 Jesusessess but one is mostly obscured by the pyramid, a pink Kirby pencil topper and a marble. There's also a quartz chunk and a replica mastodon tooth in the scene.

I was gifted this little pamphlet. I had the perfect magnet to hold it to my fridge

A small booklet titled Will Christians Disappear Soon? with a headless corpse on a couch for a cover photo is held under a flat magnet with a photo of woman in a red background. She's wearing painfully 1980s clothes with poofy permed hair and oversized glasses. The caption on it reads "Sorry I missed church. I was busy practicing witchcraft and becoming a lesbian."

I've been playing this game for 6 years and this is the best I've ever done in a side-game

A screengrab of the leaderboard. I'm in the 2nd bracket, Top 25 and came in 22nd. My in-game rewards are directly above the ranking, and below are the top 50, 100, 250, and 500 brackets with rewards

This is the shitty dive bar

My thermostat is set to 75. I'm wearing sherpa-lined sweats and double socks. I don't know exactly how the contractor justified 2/3 of every apts. outer wall being nothing but windows above uninsulated sheet metal, but I'm sure it saved a couple 100K

A view of my "wall". From the bottom going up, there's a heat vent, then a sheet of bare metal, then windows to the ceiling. It's bright, it's contemporary, IT'S FUCKING STUPID IN A LOCALE KNOWN FOR WEATHER EXTREMES

My family spoons that will never be used. Grandfather took the cutlery, turned it into jewelry and key chains and gave it to everyone. So I have my great-grandmothers wedding silver, but not taking up space in a drawer. The keychains get used every day!

3 variously sized, ornately decorated spoons with orange blossom motifs were disembowled and drilled or bent into keychains. They're on a smudged black table

My spoon ring on my puffy hand. It's the same blossom as the keychains, but this spoon was engraved along the entire length.

I gathered up all the books I bought this year but haven't read yet. I thought it would be nice to have a single TBR pile. But, as it turns out, a pile would require engineers and scaffolding. Behold, my book bag! I'm officially not allowed to buy any books until I get through half of the stash

A large reusable grocery box with straps, overfilled with around 2 dozen hardbound and paperback books. 2 titles are visible, one is y.a. novel The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan and the other is a book about Yiddish called Born to Kvetch by Michael Wex. Given that I'm both old and decidedly non-Jewish, it's kinda funny those two ended up on the top of the stacks

Company Christmas present**! **not a present, I stole one of the extras. I got first dibs on the stickers since I had to do an "appropriate for work" check on the bulk buy

A small water bottle with a sticker of Supergirl carrying Superman as she flies

Another side of the bottle, this time featuring stickers of Ms Frizzle with her iguana and the face of Albert Einstein sticking his tongue out

Company named partially obscured by a NASA sticker and a 2013 tweet that reads Just found out the world doesn't revolve around me. Shocked and upset.

The last sticker, it's white and has bold black lettering which reads Hang on. Let me overthink this.

Pie is from a box. So I had to buy a pie crust to make scrap cookies

A pumpkin pie cools in the pan. It's sitting on a white tea towel on a granite counter

She's gone now, but here's Sasha. She got into the treat bag and decided to just live her best damn life

I feel better about my housekeeping now, for some odd reason.

A small bird's nest of grayish fluff on a bed of small sticks. It's a well made nest, level and round. It just happens to be surrounded by trash, because it's on the rocky ground between railroad ties.
The earpieces of my glasses are blurrily foregrounded, but that's just because I'm a really bad photographer and the train was coming so I couldn't get a better shot

If you're not going to go with the "a pair of readers every 3 ft." strategy, you have to go full granny-mode.

A series of photos highlighting beaded chains in various color combos for holding reading glasses. Most are from etsy, but that's because Wal-mart doesn't advertise them, just sells them next to the multi-packs.

Seeing this was worth getting a bit rain-damp

A gray sky looms over a parking lot with trees and buildings. On the left it is medium gray with a faint rainbow. Then there's a dark, angry gray slice, followed by a pale silvery gray. The two are divided by a brilliant, glowing rainbow

I defeated (well, ok, I severely wounded) a Doom Pile! 2 days ago, I couldn't open these drawers. #decluttering w/ #ADHD

An empty patch of floor between a bed and a kitchen floor. There is a messy kitchen island with 3 drawers facing out. That patch of carpet hasn't been vacuumed in literal years, there was always! a pile of clothes there.

Years ago, I found this at a thrift store. I had to leave it there. What could have been...

A gray donkey with a cowboy on his back. The cowboy is wearing green studded pants, a white shirt, and a brown cowboy hat with an oversized brim. The two are posed on the edge of a blue river, which the donkey is drinking from. The whole thing is painted in bright colors on a canvas of black velvet.

I read all the way to the end. My brain still insisted on this👇, and boy, has fandom gone too far

Oh ffs! My building management is so intent on not paying office staff they've now resorted to chatbots. At least the security guy is still watching out for us.( I wish he'd quit calling me ma'am though)
