I used to think it was silly that people on Star Trek would walk across the ship to deliver a padd to someone when it's clear they have the capability to just transfer the data to another workstation. but then I realized. ah. the Federation simply outlawed email. we have so far to go to reach utopia
Ugh, and why so picky??
I'm so sorry you're going through this (again)! 💜💜💜
I only like that if they give me a discount code to come back and buy it, otherwise shut up
A long, narrow blanket made out of colored squares. They run in diagonal lines made to look luke a hot air balloon. There's a strip of yellow at the top for the sun, burnt orange at the bottom for the fire, and brown at the very bottom for the basket.
A closeup of the blanket in diagonal stripes of white, yellow, blue, green, and orange.
My next #fandomtrumpshate item is by me: a long, narrow blanket/wall hanging. If the bidder wants I can customize it, take out some rows to make it shorter. It's meant to look like a hot air balloon. (If you know HYYH, that balloon was the inspiration.)

My #rec! A sweet Stranger Things fic about Steve & Dustin's brothership.
Reading an article in the newspaper that might as well have the headline "New data suggest lower-income Americans have less money than higher-income Americans" like no shit
Squidgie is Walter, the founder of squidge.org, and has been around since the The X-Files days when he hosted mailing lists on his server.
I use it for images occasionally, it works fine, and it's squidgie so it'll still be there tomorrow
You know what's awesome? Vids. Which is why I had the best time watching almost all of the 128 Festivids from this year. While I was watching I made a quick doc of my favorites, which I've now posted as 35 vid recs on Dreamwidth. If you also like vids you'll love these. So many fandoms! Such skills!
Last night I dreamt I'd bought new underwear, so this morning I dug down past all the basic britches and pulled out a nice pair, as a treat.
Digital painting of a bright blue sky filled with gauzy white clouds. The clouds are thin, branching out into undulating patterns, tighter and looser in places. There are a few burgeoning branches showing in the lower left corner of the frame.
We report: there is some kind of symphony composing itself in the sky this morning. We can almost hear how it goes just by looking at it, abstract sheet music changing from second to second. It is a little colder than the past few days, and the wind feels bracing.
One grandfather worked in the steel mill and the other, when he got back from WWII, was a salesman.
Digital painting of a cloudy landscape: there are small mountains on the horizon, and fields in the foreground. The sky is filled with long, voluminous clouds separated by thin gaps that let sun rays straight through. The landscape is in the shadows.
We report on one of the first few days of meteorological spring: we are slowly getting reacquainted with the intermittent presence of the sun. It is so far quite content to remain at a distance. We look for rays to walk into wherever we can, and they are rare and thin.
If you need something to read while AO3 continues its investigation into why we can't have the AO3, all my fic is up on my website: punk.esteefee.com

Our #rec theme for March is Siblings—assigned and chosen! #fandom fancake.dreamwidth.org/2445469.html
thank you, that makes me feel less crazy

"A floodplain (or floodplain)"
Why is National Geographic gaslighting me? That is the same word twice! I'm nearly certain of it! education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/flo...
ouch {{hugs}}
I made so many good edits to my fic today even though I was SUPPOSED to be doing something else, or, perhaps, because.
A crow says "I just want to"
"Focus" Crow is now very detailed and crouching down

Digital painting of a dark blue night sky, full of stars. There are long, smooth clouds stretching across the frame, and smalller, fuzzier ones scattered around them. The clouds are blending into the sky, shades of grey due to the time of night.
We report as we close our eyes: on nights when we have trouble falling asleep, we send our mind to wander amongst the stars. In this state of half-wakefulness, the darkness is more comforting than it is cold, and we find paths to galaxies in places no one will ever reach.
The way K/S was meant to be read!!
First fandom I read fic for: The X-Files, on a fan site in 1995 or 6.
First fanwork I shared: An XF fanfic posted to alt.tv.x-files.creative in 1997.
They literally cannot stop you.
I mean, it was pretty easy to deal with before, but she says: "No more sticky cake bottoms!" This will require further investigation (cake).
Those dream people have now denied you pizza THREE TIMES.
I would find a way to get myself pizza after that meeting, both as a reward and a fuck you to those dream people.
