I'm so confused...? My grandparents were Catholic so growing up I went to Catholic school - while they had some funny/strict...things...in those schools, most them and the people at my grandparents church were the types to run soup kitchens and donate clothes for those in need - where did THAT go?

"There are rainbows comin' out my heart"

That was brilliant

There are always creative and small ways to use our voices. And we're always less alone in things than we realize. I went to look at Google fonts today and was pleased to see the default text had changed for text samples to samplings from the UDHR. It's nice to see.

Text samplings from Google fonts. One of them is cut off but says the first half of the same sentence as the top. Where there's a sample of the first font, it says "Everyone has the right to freedom of though, conscience, and religion"; This seems to be a sampling from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

A screenshot of Google Fonts and a font preview in two different sized. The text for 48px reads "Whereas a common understanding of these rights and freedoms is" and the second sampling at 36px reads "No one shall be held in slavery or servitude; slavery and the slave trade shall be prohibited in all their forms". These both seem to be samples from the Universal Declaration of Human RIghts.

We'll see! He said he really wants to try one, but I'm worried it might frustrate him too much! Hopefully he enjoys it (and then we can find one of these, too XD If not, I'll just have to enjoy when you post more XD)

I just bought my first kit for my kiddo's birthday next week and now I'm regretting not finding him one of THOSE. That's super pretty! Reminds me of all the clear electronics back in the day, too....I always wanted some of those!

Then the kiddo's dessert and cat

Then yesterday, we did Mythical Beasts (day 7) and kiddo colored over his with grey as if it were a block of stone and it was carved in. But the creature was also labeled like "spine, butt, etc" almost like a research drawing; it was cool. Mine was just a burning phoenix feather

On the left, an eight year old child's drawing of a new mythical creature as if it were carved or painted on stone. The creature is four legged, has a straight tail, and has teeth with a fairly smooth head. Text can just barely be seen labeling the parts of the creature, as if it were research. On the right page, a singular feather, fire at the top and ash falling, black and more ashiness at the top. The feather is upside down as if falling. The text in the corner of the right page reads "Mythical Creature Inktober Day 7"

Catch up time! I'll do a couple under in the comments

Fairy (for Monday). Kiddo did both a fairy AND a fairy sword.

#inktober #fairy #sketch

A sketch of a fairy with oblong long wings hanging down her back. Her head is down, eyes closed in sadness. Her hair is pulled around the opposite side of her neck to the viewer and falls down around her face. Her wings are dropping downward to about mid thigh. She's holding up dead and wilting plants and flowers.

A sketch of a sword with a triangular shape and wings coming out of it. The wings are blue and the metal of the inner triangle is also lined in blue.

On the right, a little fairy, dragonfly style wings, filled in as if a silhouette, hair sticking out as if the fairy is in flight.

It's also a good reminder that stretching, peeing, filling waters are all good things, too! I've been where $5 would overdraft my account >.<

But, as half of what I stream is random non-story driven things, I also understand not pausing when you're in the groove because there isn't as much to miss!

I will still feel like an idjit every since time!

But I know the dirty follow feeling is different. Been watching a bestie get slowly follow botted over and over for a couple weeks now and it's just as depressing, dirty feeling, AND disheartening. I am quick to ban/block for piece of mind!

I...uh..... accidentally do this here on Bsky T.T I use "Discover" feed more than my "following" feed so when I find someone I like, I go to their page to follow/add to lists and the color is so NOT apparent to me that I already follow that I click.....and unfollow T.T I always feel so stupid
