Haha, I wore one contact lens afterwards. Thought about a monocle, for a distinguished look. But I’d have looked too much like Col. Klink.

Can you help?… I’m trying to find my people

I know there’s more space fans here… just not sure how to reach you

Feels weird to ask, but would you give me a signal boost by hitting share?

If you’re new… Hi I’m Cat, I make pretty picture of space 🥹 let’s connect if you like weird space art

Woman standing next to large artwork on an easel. The painting is of a wormhole with gravitational lensing that shows stars and galaxies are warped around a central point.

Loved this movie. You just reminded me of that kid wearing a Killer Dwarfs patch on his jacket. I’m gonna go jam to them on Spotify right now…great band.

The laser treatment was pretty fast. It was painless and my vision was immediately clearer. I didn’t realize how bad it had become until I looked around leaving the Dr’s office.

I know what you’re going through. I had a similar situation after retina and subsequent cataract surgery. Some laser blasts took care of it. Hopefully it works in your case too.

I still have the Merlin I got as a kid. It works & takes 6AA batteries to power all that technology.

Transformers G1 “Smokescreen”. This is a what a well used 40 year old toy looks like. Broken roof and rear windows and missing a door. I remember my brother accidentally stepped on it in ‘85 or so. Still haven’t forgiven him 😆.

Loved the Lego Space sets. My brother had a large ship and I had a base. Somehow I still have the moonscape from the base. My son used it with his Legos.
