Good morning!

Great video on Indian Dhaka Muslin, a lost fabric due to colonization, greed, and capitalism.

The fabric was prized for it’s quality and comfort and was made in 16 different steps by 16 different villages.

It was the most expensive fabric in the world.

My Mohawk Maker’s Quarterly came today, along with the sample pack for Mohawk Color Papers I ordered with it.

I’ve been saving my Strathmore Writing and Script samples along with my Mohawk Superfine samples.

My daughter looked through my past Mohawk Maker Quarterlies and was so inspired.

We will have some serious fun soon!

I, uh, may start without her.

As soon as my embellishments are sorted a little more.

Now?

It used to be that I posted a selfie and nobody gave a shit. I’d maybe get a couple likes. Now I’m used to get a certain amount of likes and comments and it’s kind of a problem, because if I post something and it doesn’t “perform” then I start thinking like “Did I look fat? Is it because my boobs are small? I shouldn’t post photos without makeup”. It’s dangerous. I can’t expect every photo to do numbers. I’m a person not a brand.

Did I remember to tell you my Ostrich Fern broke the surface of the planter on Mother’s Day?

I’m so excited!

I took my over wintered fern out that day for the start of acclimatizing it too.

Soon it will join the other two ferns outside in the shade!

It dawns on me:

While Coursera wears a mask of academia, all the quizzes & tests are softballs because they don't want to fail anyone. They're selling a product, which is this cert, and they want everyone to pass so as customers we have a Positive Experience and go back to buy another cert.

I just have to get to the end of it. I'm at no risk of failing. There's no academic rigor to this at all, because capitalism.

I really do think I would move if Trump is elected. Not just because of that. But it would be too much. I’m still thinking Barcelona. My wife and I talked about visiting today, to see if it’s a good fit.

Of course I have no idea if they would have us.

Leave if you can.
I think anyone that can, should.

There are times you look at your family and realize your safety and sanity are of paramount importance. Nothing else.

We can’t.

No one would have us.

Good morning!

I think I might’ve found my first definitely AI generated image.

These HANDS!

I’ve been around people in their 80’s and 90’s my entire life. I know a woman that is 104.

I’ve never seen ANYONE with hands that looked like they belonged on a desiccated corpse.

This is the first Mother’s Day I have ever felt it was a day for me, and not just my Mom.

I’ve been missing her every Mother’s Day for 35 years.

Today was a very good day.
My daughter and son in law came to visit, they brought me purloined lilacs, and we got the patio looking a lot neater.

I managed to get in some begonias too.

I hope everyone had a good day, and a reason to smile.

another one from The Hill, this one about RFK Jr now being demonized by Republicans as a threat to Trump.

can we agree he isn't so much a political threat but a cypher for the mental of USA's political class and the citizens who parasocially elect them?

Goddess help me my son in law asked me what I thought of him and I told him I thought he was an idiot.

He went on to encourage me to look at his material because he’s been SO maligned!

😳

He really, seriously likes him as a candidate.

Fellow people who are still genuinely , particularly those who are also single, live alone, and have basically lost your entire (already small) social circle over the last few years because no one else is taking any precautions anymore (...just me?).....: How are you keeping life worth living these days? I must admit I'm struggling.

Pagan_Animist,
@Pagan_Animist@beekeeping.ninja avatar

@oddshapedmarbles

There are many good suggestions here.

I wear my mask so much I forget I have it on outside very frequently.

It’s also bright pink, so everyone notices!

It’s been hard for us, my husband and me.

I’m safe at home with visitors with our level of air filtration, but I always mask out.

Restaurants are a thing of the past. Take out picnics, maybe.

Thankfully the family loves being outside, so we do that.

No one we know masks. My daughter still doesn’t.

can’t believe people just raw-dogging covid.

at my job, there’s someone who i’m pretty sure has some form of long covid already, she suddenly got extremely sick, but came in to work anyway.
then she tested positive for covid, everyone was aware of that.
she still came to work, wore a surgical mask in the morning, but it was off by the afternoon.
i was the only person there masked at that point.
others were going up and having face to face conversations with her… about having covid!!
the fuck?

Academia can be an incredibly small world. Reflecting on how a protesting professor scuffed up by cops I just saw in a news story, I haven't seen or thought much about since he generously let me sleep on his air mattress when I was in his town for a conference in 2005 or 2006, a lifetime ago

Fuck the university for giving me this occasion to recall a former colleague

I am home, relaxing.
Trying to relax, anyway.

I’m having my first coffee of the day. It’s made with fresh beans, ground right before brewing with my aeropress.

Grass-fed milk.
It’s pasteurized, of course.

It’s breakfast. 😳 At 7 pm.

I won’t mention this to my nutritionist.

I’m rather frayed this week.
I deserve some slack.

I need some, even if undeserved.

Daughter is coming tomorrow.

That will be nice. More than nice.
It will be wonderful. ❤️
I’m grateful.

@samiamsam

My mother asked my bio-Dad to leave our lives when I was less than a year old.
He did.

Her new husband adopted me years later.

My Dad found me when I was 20, then we lost each other again for 25 years.

I’m afraid I’ll never know who I am.

I was once told, quite dryly, after I’d just started at a new company that if I was meant to have a life, it would be on the schedule.

I thought they were joking.
