Afternoon ponderings today:

We CANNOT have legit conversations about the harm of fast fashion until we deal with fat-phobia in clothing.

(I'm not here for your spicy, puritanical and fatphobic takes, I block liberally and move on with my day).

Something I really loved that Scottee of the Wonkee Club talked about in this month's practice is that in yoga, the practice of Ahimsa (non-violence) includes not pushing your body too far during your yoga practice.

I came across this quote from Hilary Kinavey "Am I doing this TO my body or am I doing this WITH my body?" and I think that's an important question to ask.

This journey of strengthening my body (and mind) is going to cause some pain. But I don't have to be violent.

Unfollowed a recipe/food blogger on insta that I'd been enjoying because they prominently featured an HP mug on their latest reel.

/sigh

It's 2024... ignorance is no excuse at this point. And coming from a white cis dude it just feels really intentional to feature the mug in the video. Like a dog whistle, except we can all hear it.

I love waking up with a to do list and zero spoons...

So fun side effect of my dog being on pain med drugs...

He's forgotten that he's an anxious little bean!

I had to go back to the vet today for a bandage change and was talking with the tech (a really lovely trans woman :D) She mentioned that they actual prescribe low doses of this med to dogs with anxiety so it's not surprising it helped him with that!

You know what I want?

A line of really sexy and supportive yoga gear for fat folx.

Stuff like Fabletics or Fenty. Both have some larger sizes, mostly in bras. But not a lot in like, cute crop hoodies, or pants.

I caved and called the vet. He's out of surgery and seems to be doing well. They want to monitor for another hour just in case. So I'll be picking him up at 3:30.

I hope he's not in too much pain <3

This morning, Boeing Starliner successfully launched to the ISS for its crewed flight test. Here's an overview of what happened, what the implications for this flight are, and what's next:

@skrishna YAY!

And this was the big moon-landing-implications one, right?

@skrishna Oh goodness. There's so many things happening! I hope you get a nap soon!!

Hmmm, the class signup said the class starts at 9:30a, the website says both 9:30a and 10a...

I AM CONFUSED.

It's funny, after partaking in two very chill yoga classes led by Scottee of the wonkee club at the weekend, I'm REALLY nervous to take the beginner's class by his friend Lucy B this morning.

Maybe it's because I didn't have time to psych myself out - I heard about the sessions the day I took them. This one, I signed up for weeks ago.

Going to conquer the brain weasels and do it anyways!

MsHearthWitch,
@MsHearthWitch@wandering.shop avatar

I did not want to show up on the mat this morning. I was achey, I did not sleep well, bloated and sore from hormones (weeee).

But I'd made a promise to myself when I signed up for this that I was going to do it every damn week unless I was like, deathly ill.

Some gentle butt-kicking as I start this new chapter of my life. Doing hard things.

I'm so glad I did!

Help!

How can I explain to someone that making their webpage harder to skim, in order to force people to read it thoroughly, will have the opposite effect?

edit: trying to resist reactively replying to this person with OMG that is so ableist, please just no

edit 2: i'll reply to this with what i actually sent them

edit 3: i am now trying to find ways to make their page MORE skimmable 😈 as retaliation lol

MsHearthWitch,
@MsHearthWitch@wandering.shop avatar

@dyani For real. I will absolutely check out if a page is just walls of text requiring me to read thoroughly. Especially if not all of it is the info I need. I want to be able to skim to find the thing, then read deeper if needed.

MsHearthWitch,
@MsHearthWitch@wandering.shop avatar

@dyani People always think they're the exception. That the information on THEIR page is so important and special that SURELY ppl will read it carefully and thoroughly.

Morning 🥱

Am impatiently checking courier tracking this morning. I invested in a new yarn swift this month, as my current one no longer holds it's shape and won't hold yarn anymore.

@MsHearthWitch@wandering.shop avatar

@craftygardennz Oh very nice! Lykke is a solid brand

trying not to scream out "NONE OF THIS MATTERS. SHAKE OFF THE SHACKLES OF CAPITALISM RETURN TO THE WILDERNESS!" during my morning meeting right now.

@MsHearthWitch@wandering.shop avatar

@ahermitforhire I finally told the program manager at the barn, "I hate zoom meetings, they're really difficult for me. Let me know what day works for you and I can be at the barn and we can have the meeting on the patio. Nothing that's on the agenda is super pressing."

That's about as close as I get... lol
