This is a picture I took when I was living alone in a shack in the wilderness. It was an experience that changed me.
I post a lot of personal, art, nature stuff.
I’m one of those livejournal refugees that came to tumblr in 2011.
I am finally free from a batch of obligations and so I made popcorn and watched a movie. Tomorrow I am back to work on the next batch of obligations. I am so relieved to be making progress finally instead of being bogged down by health issues.
I am extremely not leaving the house today and I’m probably going to work on cleaning and servicing my knitting machine.
And for the first time in weeks I didn’t have any foot or leg pain when I woke up. So I guess I’m never buying sketchers shoes anymore.
Ok well I in fact slept all day and listened to an audiobook. It seems like I have “let down” migraines where a drop in cortisol (stress hormone) triggers a migraine. Which i must say is not a good evolutionary feature. I finally get to relax and it hurts. So I guess I need to get more serious about handling stress and taking adequate (more) rest
palm-nut vultures are very unique species of vulture since over 60% of their diet consists of fruit and the rest of it is mostly small animals like bugs, crabs and small mammals as well as the usual carrion

"I am doing..." Raskolnikov began sullenly and reluctantly.
"What are you doing?"
"Work..."
"What sort of work?"
"I am on tumblr," he answered seriously after a pause.
[the words “on tumblr” have been edited in]
End of ID.
i think more final girls should be forty and kind of weird and off-putting
what I want most in this world to instill in people who have had "shameful experiences" and who feel like "failures" is that shame is a technology of the powerful to displace the ways in which institutions and systems fail people back onto those who were failed.
if you need to read that a few times go ahead sometimes it takes a while to sink in.
ok.
now gather up all the self loathing that this has generated in you over the years (this also takes time no need to rush) and put it in a box.
look at how full that box is.
now, get fucking mad.
I have to buy new shoes. I hate this. The sketchers I bought in April are causing me so much pain in my feet and legs. Also they’re incredibly worn out for just being a few months old. I hate this. Sketchers used to have such nice shoes but I guess their shoe design department is spitting out AI slop just like their advertising design department. I might just drive out to Livermore to go to the Asics outlet store. I don’t know where else to get quality shoes for cheap. Maybe nordstrom rack?
If I had to live in any pre-industrial time and place, I would only live wherever I knew I could get a regular bath. So probably most of the Islamic world.

I wish I could make white people(and not just white Americans) understand how diverse the pre-columbian Americas were. The history, religion, culture, politics was at least as complex as Europe's. There was the full gamut of religions, from monotheists to animists to ancestral religions. There were city building empires, village farmers, nomadic traders, and so many other ways to live. This is all just based on what we know, the fragments left behind and the stories of survivors of an apocalyptic plague. All this before the most extended campaign of genocide in history was waged in an attempt to wipe out those survivors.
Over 500 years spent trying to cut down a whole trunk of human culture.
Do you understand how much poorer our whole species is because of it? Can you imagine where art, religion, and science would be if we still had these vast bodies of knowledge? The stain of the colonial project will never be fully washed clean. We owe more than just the land to those we stole from. We owe them a whole future, a future that could have been brighter for all of us. If only greed and fear weren't allowed to rule this land.
Please watch ancient americas and learn

Trip Report: Mount Lassen Volcanic National Park, northern CA, USA
This park isn't that well known outside of the area, and I was excited to visit a new park and bring my park count up to 35!
It was a really beautiful mountain landscape, with amazing volcanic features, with a ton of ravens, snow plants (a totally red parasitic non-photosynthetic plant), and sagebrush lizards.

Ok well I got into another art show. This is #4 in the seven months since my final thesis. I don’t have time to get the art professionally framed so I’m just going to pretend it’s normal. I need to figure out how to get the framing supplies and do this myself. Also I’m looking at a TIG welding class so I can make my own custom framing and armature for my art.
Girl help. I am having to demonstrate my AI skills to get a job. And it’s so stupid. I made an app. I don’t know if it works and I don’t care.
Ok I also have a gig reading grant applications and rating them on whether or not they answered the questions. Like I don’t have to decide if their project deserves funding. I’m just looking to see if they provided goals, metrics, budget, a plan, etc.
And I am honestly disappointed in how many people are using AI for this grant application and not putting any thought into their goals or outreach or accessibility or whatever. Like some applications are clearly written by AI but list specific information relevant to their organization and project and that’s fine because you don’t need to be educated or working with a professional grant writer to be capable of handling a non-profit project.
But a lot just have weird narrative garbage that doesn’t answer the questions. If you’re asking for $30,000 and you can’t describe the community you serve and just copy paste some vague AI slop into your application then what are you doing? I immediately suspect that organizations with vague AI answers are just trying to funnel money into the director’s pockets and not actually provide anything to anyone.
