Please do as I’ve got two shonen series to check out now since the rest of your list calls directly into my tastes as well. 😂

I only like reading about stupid people when they’re doing something so dumb it’s funny, not frightening and harmful.

Lmao right??? I’m moving in just a few weeks and need to pack but I also need to save the Pokémon world from desolation.

If your cat has to wear a cone after surgery to remove bladder stones he may as well be bread.

Though all seething sarcasm aside, I really hope there is no draft or pulling back of anyone who isn’t on active duty any longer because one of my close friends hits dead center into what your described as a reason to join the military. :(

I feel like we should all just say that we’ve been diagnosed with TDS and cannot participate because of it. Just go with the diagnosis they keep throwing our way because according to them we are all “mentally unsound” because of it. 😇 (“Tr*mp derangement syndrome”)

EXCUSE ME WHAT?! This is incredible! The attention to detail, the scenery, the makeup. Everything is just perfect.

If by some weird chance you haven’t played the Horizon series, that would be my recommendation. (I am basically going to treat your list as one for myself though since you apparently have similar tastes in games. 😂)

Yes! My partner and I have been watching it a ton lately. We are quickly catching up to the current season too quickly for my liking. 😭

And to think we almost got rid of this tiny stool.

Noooo!! My partner is going on a merch run for me tomorrow and your books were on my list 😭

I’ve accepted that I am middle aged and so are my game tastes. That or this is my entry for “Things I could talk about for an hour straight without trying.”

As someone born in the Midwest and with a lot of family still in those states, seeing what is happening in Kansas hurts my heart deeply. There’s a lot of good people in the Midwest who don’t agree with what’s happening, but until they can push to fix things we need to help keep trans people safe.

Offer to do technical writing for an unstaffed project (I haven’t written in over four years), immediately get lambasted by blocking presubmit errors while trying to request a review. 🥲 It’s fine, I’m fine.

…I should just stick to editing, it’s less painful when I’m the one requesting fixes.

I liked that I could pick colors myself and create a design before ordering them.

I love all your Ghibli pins! But also the little Tsuyu one with the umbrella is so darling. 😭❤️

I even got fancy with mine to display them on the wall. 😂

I’m not looking forward to being a ghost and watching someone go through my COVID Depression Pin Collection. 🥲

I’m very glad most current shojo doesn’t do this, it was VERY common in the late 90s and early 00s. But now we have series like April Showers Bring May Flowers, The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity, A Star Brighter than the Sun, and Skip to Loafer which are all so sweet.

Three paintings, one haunted waves, one flower, and one anthropomorphic duck reading.

Can you tell I've been having a VERY hard time focusing on subject themes lately? Lmao 🫠

Painting roundup of goodies still looking for a home!

It's been a very slow month and would appreciate boosts if your looking for original artwork!

DM to claim (US shipping included)

I can tell @paigeedits.bsky.social is tired from packing and organizing because she handed me some sort of toxic painting oil and instead of saying “put this with the hazardous chemicals”

she paused and then said “put this with the danger liquid go-go bye-bye”

I just adore everything about her! She’s funny, she’s incredibly kind and compassionate to all of her competition, and her skating was the most freeing version of figure skating I’ve ever seen. Alysa truly just went out there and had the best time ever and it showed (and paid off).

You’re about a decade late with that recommendation I’m afraid! 😂 I’ve been a huge fan of the series for forever now and was legitimately disappointed when I found out the “gay hockey romance tv show” wasn’t based on that series (though I have hopes that one day it’ll be true!).

I’m apparently doing the Olympics figure skating to Blades of Glory to Yuri on Ice figure skating pipeline. …I also started watching Ice Princess and I’m reading the Heated Rivalry series (it’s got skates, it sort of counts right?).

I’m going to cry even harder than usual over the plane episode the next time I do a greys rewatch. 😭

Alysa Liu’s Olympic run came with terms. Her choreographer helps her express them Liu is the best U.S. hope for an Olympic medal in women's figure skating, which would be the country's first in the competition since 2006.

“When Liu, 20, decided to return to skating, she did so with conditions. She’d wear what she wants. Dance to the music she wants. Eat what she wants. Take breaks when she wants…. [Skating] would be the vehicle through which she displayed the real Alysa.”

she did it! her! way!!

This post gave me and a bunch of other technical editors a good laugh and lots of validation that our jobs are still important!

I went and shared it with all the other tech editors, I can’t be the only one to suffer.

Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon.

Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.
