The mug, btw. I thought I had a second one but I can’t find it. Also this one says 1978 so whoops. I *used it* in the 80s and 90s, though. 😅

Glass Garfield McDonald’s mug from 1978. He’s lying in a red hammock and his thought bubble says, “it’s not a pretty life, but somebody has to live it.” On the other side, which is not visible, Odienis fanning him and holding a drink.

So if you’ve been following for a while, you know that my apartment roof leaked pretty badly during a crazy storm back in October. It was like pulling teeth just to get a tarp on my roof. And yesterday I noticed that the tarp has a giant rip in it. Because it’s been there 9 god damn months.

Photo showing the roof of my shitty apartment, covered in a faded brown tarp. The tarp is held down by sandbags. There’s tree debris all over it. And. Ow there is a rip running down the left side of the tarp, a few feet in.

🍿 Last film watched 💿 Last album/song played 🎮 Last game played ❓ Last meme saved

Song played: The Vampire Lestat - “Brutal Love”

Meme is a Darth Plagueis meme. Images are from the scene in Revenge of the Sith. The text of the meme reads as follows.

Panel 1
Palpatine: You ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise?

Panel 2
Anakin: Ummmmmm no.

Panel 3
Palpatine: Come on really? Well what about Darth Revan?

Panel 4
Palpatine: Nihilus? The Sith Who eats planets.

Panel 5
Palpatine: Ok you have to know this one. Darth Vitiate formally known as Tenebrae, also known as Valkorion the immortal emperor of Zakuul?

Panel 6 has no text and is just Anakin and Palpatine looking at each other.

Panel 7
Palpatine: They don't teach you shit in that temple.

Realized I did not share this photo. On Monday I got to meet World’s Greatest Author, @chucktingle.bsky.social at the Decatur Library in Atlanta! Drove up from Florida for this trot with my friend Erin, @howboutno05.bsky.social. We had a great time! And Fabulous Bodies is my book club’s next read! 😎

photo of me, a blonde female presenting individual, dressed in black skirt, capri leggings, a faded grey tshirt that says "read books, be kind, stay weird", and a black hoodie. I am holding a copy of Chuck Tingle's new book Fabulous Bodies; it’s teal with pink lettering. next to me (my left) is Chuck themself! he's wearing his signature pink bag mask and sunglasses, a fun magenta sequined jacket, a black tee with an insect on it, silver sequined shorts. he's giving a thumbs up with his left hand. behind us, a whiteboard says, "Love is Real."

Does anyone have any experience with keeping DUCKS out of your bird feeder? This is not the bird this feeder is for and my apartment complex is lousy with these ducks and them getting on my feeder is pissing me off.

A fucking Muscovy duck sitting in my bird feeder platform, where she does not belong.

My dumb workshop is taking a break. So I’m lying on the floor of my office with my feet on my chair. Harley has joined me.

My sweet tabby cat child Harley lying on the floor of my office in solidarity. She’s brown with white chest and muzzle and white tipped “socks”. Her eyes are closed. I was just giving her scritches.

Prepping for bunny suit construction. I’ll be starting with mockups like a smart person, but I’m currently browsing the needed supplies for the final piece.

In the background, my laptop showing a tab open to Mood Fabrics, on a page showing teal satin fabric. In the foreground, my hand holding sewing instructions, flipped to the supply list page.

A Pig Can Jig. I specifically taught myself to read using one of these (Part 1, I think) when I was 4 years old. I'm sure my mom had read it to me at one point (she read to me a lot), but I wanted to be able to read by myself and this is the book I picked up.

two yellow books, side by side, titled A Pig Can Jig. one book is labeled Part 1 and the other is labeled Part 2. The covers are identical except for the titles. they show an anthropomorphized pig in a red shirt or coat and blue pants and he is doing a jig.

Why post AI garbage when it is SO EASY to find the real one on NASA's image gallery (images.nasa.gov)? This is the real splashdown photo of #ArtemisII #Orion capsule. Not necessarily blaming OP, maybe they didn't know it was an AI image, but it's super easy to verify. Do better, y'all.

Official image of NASA's Orion spacecraft carrying Artemis II astronauts, splashes down in the Pacific Ocean near San Diego, CA. The image shows the capsule hitting the ocean with the 3 striped parachutes deployed above it.

My #LastFourWatched for this #LetterboxdFriday 1. Project Hail Mary 2. Apollo 13 🔁 3. Apollo 11 4. Apollo 13: Survival Those last two are documentaries on Netflix - highly recommend! But I haven’t watched anything new in a week because I’ve been watching the Artemis stream. 😅 #Letterboxd

My cell signal was GARBAGE out there. Someone was playing Rocket Man right before the launch. 10/10 no notes. #ArtemisII

Artemis II launch. Sorry I’m not good at describing. It’s a rocket. It’s going up up up TO THE MOON BABY!!

I’m sorry, but any time anyone mentions Heated Rivalry to me, this is my reaction. I’m not interested out of spite tbh. (Them = HBO, my boy = OFMD.)

Captain Kirk in The Undiscovered Country with text, “I could never forgive them for the death of my boy.”

This makes me extremely nervous for the future of my current job (which I DO want to leave, but LOL *gestures at everything*). I work for an insurance company (evil, I know) and my work is directly tied to ACA plans. Loss of consumer base = more possible layoffs and we’ve already had two this year.

They love the toys. Success. I’ll be making some for friends with cats but not tonight.

Photo focused on my hand holding a cat toy that resembles a candy with both ends tied. In the background is my cat Ivy investigating a different but similar toy. There’s also a yellow toy on the floor that I made.

Close up of my cat Harley, a tabby, doing a sniff test of the same toy I was holding in the prior photo.

Just saw FedEx drop off a package. Confused, I don’t think I have any incoming orders. I retrieve the package, it’s soft. Shirt? I haven’t ordered any shirts recently. Shipper unfamiliar. Open package. A Jaws 50th shirt from Cinemark. Don’t have any near me, but I know my friend Kamo does.

A white t-shirt with a blue Jaws 50th design with the words “D-Box Feel It All” in read above the design.

Happy #StarTrekDay! I have Trek to thank for many of my closest friends.

Leonard Nimoy, myself, and William Shatner, DragonCon 2009.

Myself (blue Trek hoodie), my padawans Nikita (to the right of me), and Jen (below Nikita), and Nichelle Nichols, DragoncCon 2015.

Apparently, my Bluesky app had not auto updated yet so I wasn’t able to post my own gifs. Anyway, here is a gif I made for ontd_startrek on LiveJournal back in 2009. I have done my best to describe it in alt text.

These people they’re with in this photo? They host a right wing podcast. Here’s they are with her and here they are with trump. Stop giving her your god damn money.

Stupid fuck ass Taylor and her dipshit MAGA boyfriend and Nazi pals.

Some stupid Nazi dude bros that TS is pals with.

Captive of Gor by John Norman. 🫣 I can’t say it was *good* but I liked the cover (Boris Vallejo!) and the plot was definitely not something a 12-year-old should read, but here we are. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Cover of the sci-fi novel Captive of Gor by John Norman; two scantily clad warrior women are standing over another scantily clad lady who is kneeling in the ground.

Quiz incorrect on the aspect of anyone being in love with me. I don’t think a fictional version would be lovable either. Create this Picrew of yourself: picrew.me/en/image_mak... Then take this quiz: uquiz.com/quiz/eTdXoU/... and post the results to see what you’d be like as a fictional character.

Picrew representation of myself. Blonde hair in a bun, with bangs and side pieces sticking out, green eyes, nose piercing, spiked collar, black shirt, teal shirt (or jacket, hard to say) over it, holding up a peace sign. There’s are bisexual and asexual coloured hearts on the left side of the image.

Your Result:
Bastard (Good)
You're a bastard. A wet cat, if you will. And we love you for it. You're a little shit, but in the good way. You are the baddest babygirl. You killed a man, but you looked good doing it. You flirted with the hero and the enemy. All of Tumblr is madly in love with you. Congrats, I guess?

Randomly remembered where this action figure was, thought I’d create a scene with the Snap Squad Rexy that was already on my desk. (Today’s calendar page makes this even funnier to me.) Hehe.

Photo of my desk showing an Ian Malcolm figure and a Jurassic World Snap Squad T-Rex figure. Next to figures is my daily Effin Birds calendar. Today’s message is, “just how fucking stupid do you think I am?”

Sometimes I think about him.

So I'm going to pull these out again to remind everyone. (And if I get some snarky reply/QP to any of this, which happens every time I defend those of us living in the US South, I'm blocking on sight.) 3/
