Belovèd has just gotten off work from a full day IN AN OFFICE and is heading out to do comedy for a charity event.

I'm wondering if I'll have the spoons to maybe fold these clothes I washed Monday.

I don't have room! Sort of.

Oh, it's pneumonia, neuropathy, AND sepsis. Even more exciting!

Going to the store is the worst, but there is literally nothing to eat in my house. I must arise and go shop. I must. I'm…I'm gonna stand up any second now.

to be fair, I do respond to it

There is a non-zero number of people in the world who think that my real, actual, IRL name is 'Crow'. This comes from being referred to as such for fifteen years across Twitter and here.

it is very funny to me that 'abbot of unreason' was a bit inspired by a friend changing her handle to 'lady of misrule' (because those two and 'prince de sots' are all names used for the master of the revels at carnival) and now people deadass refer to me as 'abbot'

Pretty exciting stuff! I wonder what it's like to live in a country that's working to advance science and, like, life.

Very excited to hear that Jordan Peterson is suffering from sepsis, which is a truly agonizing way to die. May he shuffle loose this afternoon so he can be forgotten by the weekend.

Give it a few days.

I mean, no shame and no shade for flash tattoos. They're just *very much* not for me. I have a few and I agonized over all of them!

BONE-02. THIS TIME IT'S PERSONAL.

Ada Palmer @adapalmer.bsky.social · 10h

Chinese scientists have created a oyster-inspired medical adhesive called Bone-02 that can bond shattered bones in just 3 minutes. Inspired by how oysters cling to rocks underwater, the glue forms a strong, biodegradable bond that replaces screws and plates. buff.ly/znJ2jxD

Spookiest part: what is O.C.T. an acronym for?

'I went back to New England for two weeks and all I got was this deep melancholy about the increasingly unreachable nature of my former selves.'

please don't be worried about me, this is literally just what people from New England who move away have to do every 9 to 24 months or we'll start dreaming about trees again

lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

what would you buy to break the curse?

It's taken me a lot of tattoos and a lot of years to trust my artist the way I do now, and I still look very closely at her designs before we get started.

samhain birb 🎃 👻 @crow.stormsong.org · 23h

I've found there's a nonzero number of people who just want to have tattoos but don't care what they actually are. Absolute other end of the spectrum from me and makes no sense at all.

I still want a tattoo of Rhonda with her wagon.

I didn't see TRICK 'R TREAT till just a few years ago. Belovèd was astonished and sat me down immediately to watch it. Now we're going to see it in the cinema for the first time!

I hope he doesn't get sad, thinking 'why doesn't the big one talk to me any more?'

samhain birb 🎃 👻 @crow.stormsong.org · Jul 11

My tiny old man makes an absolute litany of whiny noises when he's waiting for dinner. It makes me very sad indeed that he can no longer hear me making them back at him. 😞

Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves. One for practice and the other one is the "main" grave.
