This could have been a whole novel tbh but there was a lot of good about robots with feelings, trans and disabled allegory, community and community in food, and oh yeah, SF after a cessation war with the US
quick psa: if you use GDrive, go into Settings -> Manage Apps and make sure the Gemini AI horseshit is turned off.
Just got a heads-up about it elsewhere, and sure enough, Gemini had been turned back on without my permission
Her wig flying off in the third panel is sending me, this is so cute
it is! which is why I'm like "if my tummy hurts from too much caffeine why legs swell 2day" LOL
it showed me some of them and I was like oop! hehe
anyway taking an hour to do lymphatic therapy for the first time in a while because my legs are swollen today lol oops I didn't take walkies today and got a little nausea from too much caffeine hehe
Isn't caffeine supposed to be an anti-inflammatory! ok probably not like that lol
counts
I have shipped 95 orders this month (and 14 more on deck) and I'm not going to count how many patches that is 8)
realtalk things are really tight right now so the massive work I've been doing over the Halloween season has helped immensely with that but I've also been up until midnight most nights, I'm tired lol

"ok if I do priority mail will I get it by Halloween"
only if you choose the rush fee (goes into detail about day job/evening work, I'm down a machine, these sets take like 2.5 hours to make, etc)
"ok I ordered with the rush fee (nice words about my time)

pulls up order
guess what isn't there
"can I get these patches by the 30th? I'm in (CA)"
Sure, if you do it with the rush fee and choose priority mail at checkout
"priority mail says x dates"
yeah Etsy guesses on arrival dates but the rush fee means I'll make/mail it earlier, priority mail only controls speed after shipping

As a Libro.fm acolyte, it is my duty to inform you that audio that's purchased from your favorite indie bookseller sounds better and is also more emotionally fulfilling than the same audio purchased from a megacorp that's assisting the authoritarian federal regime.
And then my first audio T Kingfisher which was great! Love her uncommon protags and this is no exception, a broad older (30s I think!) woman, a mystery in a retelling of Snow White but this time, with nature and poisons and secret mirrors yessss

Between this and Sabrina doing a similar thing it is VERY CLEAR which pop stars are aware of The Moment right now and are rising to the occasion and which ones don't give a shit

If so there is a song for that we can teach him!! Hehehe
Sudden realization I might be able to wear normal boots for the first time in my life lmao
(Even when I was xx lbs less I couldn’t because the then-unknown lipodema misshaped my calves so badly I only ever found like 2 knee length boots I could fit)
Shock
My faaaavorite of the series, I knew I’d love Rosie from one line in the last book but I was RIGHT. Also love short king Adam because we know I love a stuffy man being taken apart. So much lore and world building in this final volume, loved it
