yesterday I made a pouf from scratch

the foot of a sewing machine with a piece of white fabric with zig-zag stitches along one edge

a half-circle of dark blue fabric made from pie-slice made pieces stitched together

a complete pouf, looking like a little beanbag; my feet are resting on it in running shoes and the croissant, a young ginger and white cat, is examining it with a distrustful expression

new hair

a smiling blonde trans woman looks at the camera, sitting in her car. her hair is freshly cut and styled with long bangs and nice layering. she is wearing an olive green dress and a pink floral shawl

that's what's up

a concrete basement floor with about a centimeter of water on it and a Shop Vac hose valiantly trying to suck it up

the eternal homie @lochann.bsky.social has given me the dream garage and then some

a photograph of a bookshelf full of 1/64 Hot Wheels and otherwise toy cars; in the centre a large diorama with internal lighting highlights my personal favourites: a Rover SD1 Vitesse, a BMW E30 325i Touring station wagon with M livery, an Alfa Romeo Tipo 33 Stradale, a BMW E30 M3, and a Buick Roadmaster station wagon. above the lighted diorama, display boxes show an SW20 Toyota MR2 with Martini livery, a DOME Zero, an Alfa Romeo GTV6 in GT2 trim, and an RWB 911. in the centre of the image, a miniature parking garage structure hold a Toyota Land Cruiser, an Alfa Romeo Giulia, an FC Mazda RX-7, a BMW E30 325i Touring station wagon, a Maserati Birdcage, a Toyota Land Cruiser in Japan Automotive Federation livery, a Toyota Land Cruiser pickup, a Hond N600 in a goofy sort of rallye trim, and a BMW 507.

listen to @savantgardepod.bsky.social

I got a new toy last week and it rules. I've got a solo flight to Toronto next week and I'm going to be so entertained

a hand holding an Anbernic RG35xx H, a very small handheld game console with standard D-pad and four face buttons, and also twin analog thumb sticks. the screen is displaying the Nauru singing scene from the opening of Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages

an orange and white cat, the croissant, sits on a wicker chair with one paw extended toward the camera. he has a gormless expression because he is a little dummy

a tabby and white cat, Francisco, lays on my wooden desk and rests his head on my hand with half-closed love eyes

I got done up for my partner's dance performance on Saturday and I've never taken a better selfie

a trans woman with long, wavy blonde hair and grey-blue eyes looks into the camera with a slight smirk. she is wearing green-grey glasses, a black mesh top and a light-grey cardigan

what the fuck are you talking about, Instagram

screenshot of an Instagram DM from me. text reads: "I would love a manual lever machine. completely mechanical, unpowered machines like this have a reputation for being a bit fussy to manage temperature but something like a LaPavoni Europiccola or so would be fun". beneath the DM bubble, small grey text says "Tap and hold to imagine with AI. Try it"

Francisco has given his assent to my new desk

a brown tabby and white cat is sitting with folded paws on a wooden desk, lit by pinkish light from a dork-ass gaming PC. his expression is relaxed and curious.

feeling pretty proud of this

a photography of a sit-stand desk in standing position. there are two large computer monitors on arms with desktop wallpapers of a Ford Mustang and a Toyota Pickup's interior. the raised standing desk section is flanked on either side by fixed sit-level desktop "wings", with green shelves built into the corners of either wing.

I'm also a big fan of all of BMW's 90s UX design

the instrument cluster from an E34 BMW 5-series. it is unfussy and explicit, with a large speedometer with white text on black, an equally large tachometer, a fuel economy guage, fuel gauge, temperature gauge, and digital information display. there is nothing here that is not needed.

Aoife Rowan 🏳️‍⚧️@mckechnie· May 12

consider also

the instrument cluster from a Lexus IS300, heavily inspired by fancy technical watch faces. the large central speedo has inside it tiny temperature, voltage, and fuel economy gauges. it is flanked on the left with a tachometer and on the right with a fuel gauge and LCD multi-display with odometer and whatnot. the design is very elegant, compact, and pleasingly mechanical

Aoife Rowan 🏳️‍⚧️@mckechnie· May 12

the instrument cluster from a Lancia Delta Integrale Evo; there are five rather aeronautical gauges in gorgeous yellow on black, in a grey panel. the speedo does 3/4 of a full sweep and has 80km/h at the very top; the tachometer counter-rotates so the needle sweeps into the driver's field of vision at redline. it's a beautiful, no-nonsense, driver-focused work of art

Aoife Rowan 🏳️‍⚧️@mckechnie· May 9

did a thing

Aoife Rowan 🏳️‍⚧️@mckechnie· May 9

got one coat done on my office update, and I'll need to hand brush some of the spots the roller can't reach

a wide angle photo of a small room with a window in the center of the wall. three walls are a patchy dark green. in the bottom right corner of the photo a white and ginger cat looks toward the camera

lmao

a Bluesky screenshot describing the "Rude" label applied to a skeet of mine

the skeet in question: me reskeeting myself. the original skeet says "nearly got the big espresso machine finished and I'm already plotting a PID upgrade for the small one". the quote skeet, a month later, simply reads "you dumb bitch"

only because I'm currently listening to an audiobook of The Rise and Fall of DODO: Anathem by Neal Stephenson

the cover of the book Anathem, by Neal Stephenson; a lithograph engraving-style illustration depicts a colossal orrery in a domed vault, with sunlight streaming in from a row of arched windows

cats are such graceful, majestic creatures

my cat Francisco, a brown tabby and white boy, is lying on my bed. his little brother, the croissant, an orange tabby and white boy, is sitting directly on top of Francisco's flank. Francisco is looking at the camera with an expression that suggests "what the hell is this"
