I must not fear Fear is the mind-killer Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration I will face my fear I will permit it to pass over me and through me And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path Where the fear has gone there will be nothing Only I will remain

Today marks half a century alive. Is this my last decade or will I live to see a quarter century?

boo

Yes art is a learned skill! As an engineer, being able to effectively use the tools at your disposal is also a skill/talent. Simply knowing facts and equations doesn’t yield a solution, just as knowing color theory and materials doesn’t produce art. 💜

Why I hate the #ESO Community Team: #1 - I've been banned from the forums for calling out bad modding. At least some of the forum mods ALWAYS tag my posts, but leave worse phrasing from others intact. But it's "not personal"???? #2 - They get upset if you say non-verbal harassment exists in game.

Someone at #ESO #ESOfam please tell whatever dev made this tricorn hat that they fulfilled my 12 year long dream of a proper pirate outfit!!! Paired with the Noble Suit of course!

Of all the days to accidentally get on the 2 line and not realize until Mercer Island. The 1 day a week I need to be home by 4, stuck waiting because of track blockage.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO Rest in Peace. You were too good for us.

Dear Pacific Medical Center: Beacon Hill - rheumatology is NOT a “65+” specialty! Many people with autoimmune diseases need care starting in their 20s! Facing a waiting room full of geriatric patients judging you for not being “old enough” is NOT fun at every doctor visit.

This is a particular favourite of mine, one of the State gowns designed for Queen Elizabeth II to wear during her 1967 visit to Canada. It is smooth of line with a sprinkling of blue beaded maple leaves circling the drop waisted princess line #RCT #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

'You'll choke too' - an aerial embroidery landscape inspired by all the wildfires happening right now... I'm upset every time I smell smoke outside and somehow we have people starting them maliciously too! But we all breathe the same air so they'll choke too (1/2 - see thread for close-ups)

It's Textile Tuesday, and you know what that means: a piece by artist Faig Ahmed called "The Dragons of Karabakh" that's woven to look like an antique Central Asian carpet is melting off the wall into a puddle. More about the artist here: faigahmed.com

Between @opera auto-updaters crashing Firefox, NVIDIA BS, and Firefox crashing ESO (which corrupts addon files) I spent the first HOUR after turning on my computer, troubleshooting and fixing. I fucking HATE software. Stop vibe coding!

@Nvidia app can't even download/install drivers now. Had to do it manually, but app being open PREVENTED DRIVER INSTALL. I gotta get my AMD machine running, this is miserable.

The next time #ESO has a Daedric Prince take their power out and put it in a jar, in front of me, I'd like the option to kill them. I mean, c'mon! The world would be better without Sheogorath!

Good morning & welcome to Roast Dinner Day What feels like falling behind might simply mean you’re travelling a different road. Life isn’t a race, and you don’t have to keep pace with anybody else. Take your own route, at your own speed, and enjoy what you find along the way.

Alone. Entirely alone. Because i asked “friends” to care about me as a person.

Whether it be Zohran Mamdani or Abdul El-Sayed, the way the establishment nonchalantly kicks into high key screeching Islamophobia whenever a Muslim person runs for public office should be all you need to know about them.

Thanks for the litmus test. Learned that after 2 years of dating, the partner still thinks this is "misleading headline, nuanced, and both of these idiots are Progressive" Glad to drop that mess in the trash.

So gorgeous!!!!

Happy Caturday

We pay ~$150 every 2 months. A 20% rate hike is $30 every 2 MONTHS not per year. Who is lying here: The Stranger or @SeattleCityLight?

Ah yes, “think about the children!” because adult lives are fair game? 🙄

Brushing teeth after staying up too late watching anime. Power goes out Oh yeah, scheduled outage tonight from 1:30-3:00am. Guess I can read on phone for a bit. 🤷‍♀️

He was wearing WOMENS pants when arrested??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Honey you don’t have enough cleavage for that shirt.

Lack of sleep catching up with me Desperately trying not to fall asleep in the chair while my hair dye sets.

It’s 3:15 AM WHY ARE YOU STARTING FIREWORKS NOW???

The folds of this tea gown hang perfectly at either hip in a series of ever increasing drapes. I can’t help thinking that whoever wore this ensemble had no problem with the concept of relaxing at home in a drift of lavender silk. 1910-15 @metmuseum.org #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

It's Friday so why not treat yourself to a cozy trip through space with an Artemis II Eclipse teapot: amyraehill.shop/products/art...

Solar eclipse hanging planter. A good test of glazing skill ✨

Only in #ESO can I pick the lock to a gate in Daggerfall... while standing in Reaper's March.

Went to the vet today - give warning that Tinker does not like to be restrained in any way, and she may nip. Tinker is perfect angel and doesn't even yowl when vet carries her to the back for shots. 😒🙃

tax the rich but also make each of them walk down a runway where they get an extra tax if i think their outfit is ugly

I've never said "X" in real life. As a writer, I only use it to say "X, the platform formerly known as Twitter" because I get paid per word and this earns me enough money for an appetizer

Good morning to everyone who, like me until today, was unaware that Nixon personally designed these uniforms for his Secret Service guards to wear. They were wildly unpopular and ended up being donated to a high school marching band.

I sincerely hope @microsoft.com Gaming division FAILS. You killed a 10+ year game with a vibrant community, for an unrealized game, that many fans of the series will not play. Because you sacrificed #ESO for AI crap in #TES VI. Happy now AI Barbie? Because I will never play another MS owned game.
