I live in #SiliconValley in the #BayArea. Here I design #greetingCards and teach others how to make them.

In my spare time, I #garden and serve my two #cats.

Toots may be laced with #humor. I use affiliate links whenever possible.

Wow, I just spent 30 minutes waiting for my lunch date before realizing that we agreed to meet tomorrow. 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

It’s a cool day today AND my baking stuff is unpacked (I think), so today I’m making scones! It’s my family’s recipe, and is miles better than the dry, brittle stuff the coffee shops sell. 😃 Recipe Incoming

@samhainnight That sounds tasty!

Hmm... #lutefisk

@ai6yr LOL This Swedish person agrees with the sentiment. Most Swedish people slather it with homemade mustard to avoid actually tasting it.

Although it's still better than surströmming.

@ai6yr @dogfox No meatballs for you then, Ben. 😂

Seriously, if you want to try something exotic that's actually good, take a look at the pickled herring at Ikea. Regular pickled herring or mustard herring are genuinely great on a sandwich.

It IS purple, and aside from needing a cut, I love it!

Not the most flattering angle, you know!

@Pagan_Animist Love the color!

@ai6yr Wow, "moulage" was not pronounced the way I thought it was! But the comments say it's wrong. Now I'm thoroughly confused. 😵‍💫

Shout out to every designer and developer who've ever had a client become severely distressed over Lorem Ipsum text.

Total solidarity with anyone who've had the same person freak out twice.

@sysop408 LOL How do you even find these people? I prefer to do my user testing with people outside the Bay Area, because people here are very online compared to the rest of the US. I guess your clients are the exceptions that prove the rule. 😂

Paying a car service to pick up the relatives at LAX, I have hit my free Uber limit.

Hail Freya, it's Friday!
For this week’s I'm reviving an age-old pagan debate.
This is a two-part question:

Do you think cursing/hexing is an acceptable practice?

Have you done it?

mjausson,
@mjausson@mastodon.design avatar

@Cat_LeFey I think outright cursing can be warranted in some cases, but I've never done it. Even when warranted, I didn't want to be entangled in the cursee's energy or fate.

OTOH reflecting back a person's energy toward themselves can be very effective. As long as the recipient is a non-psychotic adult, in my book reflecting back is ethically neutral. In my experience it's best combined with a banishing. They usually stay gone after that.

Achievement unlocked. Went to the farmer's market on a combo of bus and bike. Learned many lessons...

@ai6yr Is there a phone number for parking enforcement you can call to clear the semis out of the bike lane?

mjausson,
@mjausson@mastodon.design avatar

@ai6yr Even worse! 😱

ai6yr, to random

No coffee?! No hot peppers?!?!?! No bike riding?! Impossible! 😱

mjausson,
@mjausson@mastodon.design avatar

@ai6yr A whole week? That's harsh.

mjausson,
@mjausson@mastodon.design avatar

@ai6yr I sympathize. 😴

In a previous job I had someone get mad at me for yawning. 🥱 Not sure what he expected me to do about it in the middle of a meeting.
