I used to study and read, then play Skyrim or ESO or another sandbox game while stewing/applying what I read
Had kids. Became single mom. No time for that.
In school again, and my body is like THIS IS HOW WE USED TO PROCESS. LET US DO IT AGAIN.
So now my kids play Skyrim with me while I study
Our bodies hold on to experiences in the weirdest of ways.
Example: I have gone back to school (AHHHH) for a post-bachelors program in psychology. For a month I floundered and felt so dumb, and kept talking down on myself for wanting to play Skyrim and RPGs
Caved for a weekend. Retained the info..

I'm suing Grammarly over its paid AI feature that presented editing suggestions as if they came from me - and many other writers and journalists - without consent.
State law requires consent before someone's name can be used for commercial purposes.

I usually spend a decent amount of time making a reference for my paintings. It feels very weird for this one to just be holding things lol
MFRC was the closest I ever got to having supports, and even they admitted there was next to nothing they could do to compel CAF to engage
CAF won't even publish the statistics
CAF was, most likely, the only structure that could help my situation, hold accountability or help, and they wouldn't.
I'm going to candidly say, as someone who has a CAF ex spouse that was, and still is, abusive and unwell
There is NO reporting scheme for this. The department will point to MFRC and base support, but off base?
There is no helpline, no call line, and no clear support once you leave a CAF spouse

I will (whale) adapt
A woven patch featuring stages of evolution of the whale, a reminder of resilience, change, and adaptation.
A little reminder I found to be important, especially in these times.

I am always loathe to post selfies of something that took a few hundred hours of my life but making the last minute decision to (mostly) finish Daud and head down to Seattle for ECCC this year was one of the best decisions of my life.

Some days you feel not only that you are caught between a rock and a hard place, but that you're balanced on a teetering rock, in a rushing stream, between the two.
