Just realized: ESL speakers struggle with "squirrel" bc they're trying to pronounce it the way it's spelled, which looks like two syllables. Native speakers often pronounce it as a single syllable though. If you can say "world", just append "sk" to the front, remove "d" from the end. "Skworl".

I'm so grateful I'm in a tech-heavy home. Of my 3 PCs, now only ONE has a working keyboard lmao. Ordered a couple new ones, but until one gets here, I'm exclusively using the laptop for my studies. I'd die if I had to use the on-screen keyboard to write a 1500-word paper.

Btw, doing great in school. Annoyed by the responsibility of grading my peers often, but I'm performing well. Just made the President's List 😌✨ 3.92 CGPA. Sometimes I'm not totally sure why I'm doing it, but I'm way too busy to follow that train of thought anywhere bad lmao.

Took a great selfie last week that I forgot to post to most socials 💖🥰

Bust portrait of Rainy, leaning her chin on her hand. She is wearing thick black eyeliner and black lip color. She has long, straight, dark hair. A few paintings are visible on the wall behind her.

My local hospital's hold music is indistinguishable from the Create-A-Sim music. I should be designing a kinda short, chubby, brunette, obvious self-insert for me and all my dead aspirations. She's a multi-millionaire doctor, author, painter, and game designer with no kids, no husband, and 4 cats.

Look, I'm not a *phenomenal* example (I do struggle to hold down jobs, so I housewife instead), but I literally *file* our taxes. I'm pursuing a degree in health science. I'm writing a book. Like??

✨Hi, I'm working online again✨

The first 10 people to request a reading get it absolutely free! You have the option to pay, but you are not obligated to. Paid readings fund my Associate's Degree, and free readings help me write my Tarot book, so I'm grateful either way 💜

"The Great Influenza" by John M. Barry. If there exists a more thorough but digestible resource on the topic, I've yet to see it.

Please look up the influenza epidemic of 1918-19 to understand that the CDC not selecting strains for next year’s vaccines sets the stage for a public health calamity that will, without doubt and at bare minimum, catastrophically and directly impact people you know. This is a five alarm fire.

I used to also love canned vienna sausages, but couldn't stomach them in adulthood. Spam is great though.

If you grew up poor: what are some poor dinner staples you actually enjoy? I really like pinto beans. A lot of southerners make it too soupy and use a slotted spoon to serve them, but if you use *just* enough water to cook them through? 🤤

Every single time I get hiccups, I become slightly paranoid that I'm going to be one of those people who just has hiccups for 40 years straight

Some goofball survivors in #DeadByDaylight left me offerings on the Midwich courtyard sigil hehe

The image depicts a scene from a video game. In the foreground, a character standing near giant chains with concrete debris scattered around, implying that they burst from or into the ground by force. The character is facing toward the viewer, and another character is crouched behind them. Between the characters and the viewer, an intricate red sigil is painted on the ground. A few player items are scattered on the sigil. The environment suggests a dark, nighttime setting. The overall atmosphere is intense and dramatic, typical of survival-horror games.

Told my husband "it basically never benefits me, and the few times it does I never appreciate it." Nearly always only works on cards I wanted to sell anyway 🙄

Benefit of the doubt, people

A two-panel comic.

Left panel: A man with slicked-back black hair, wide eyes, and an exaggerated facial expression wears a dark suit with a white shirt and blue tie. His left arm has a red armband with a black swastika in a white circle. He is saying, “I am a Nazi.”

Right panel: A man with short brown hair, stubble, and a neutral expression wears a plain white T-shirt. He looks slightly surprised or incredulous as he responds, “Well, that doesn’t mean he’s a Nazi.”

The background is a gradient of pink and purple. The text “@pizzacakecomic” is at the bottom left, and “patreon.com/pizzacakecomic” is at the bottom right.

Like the only "skinny" monkeys I can think of are capuchins and spider monkeys, but they're little bitty. Orangutans are about people-size, yeah? I'd be alarmed if I saw one that lacked a pot belly at a zoo. Hold on, I'm gonna google some things...

It's "interesting" that often the people who acknowledge we and modern apes share a common ancestor also believe being anything but a precise BMI is bad. I can't think of a large ape or primate that typically and healthily has heroin chic or Victoria's Secret physique.

I feel like there's at least a soft correlation between your economic class and whether you learned the meaning of "consolidate" from the airport intercom or Credit Karma.

If you ever match with me as Susie Legion, you can guarantee your safety with a particular Leon Kennedy cosmetic. I'll follow you around like a lovesick puppy and refuse to let the Entity have you.

The image shows a character in a video game setting, dressed in a colorful outfit with a hood and a mask. They are standing in tall grass, appearing to be in motion. On the right side of the image, there is a chat box displaying messages from the user "RainyWraith." The messages include: "sorry if you wanted a challenge," "I can't resist a man in a tailored vest," and "xoxox." The overall atmosphere suggests a playful interaction within the game.

Bless you! Posted with no corrections. I stopped writing alt text for art specifically bc I have a tiny audience and no energy after drawing, but this will make my art much more accessible going forward.

The image features a pencil sketch of a character with a stitched mask and long hair, wearing a loose hoodie and a skirt. The character holds an object resembling a weapon in one hand. The sketch shows details like the character's clothing, which appears tattered, and the texture of the hair. A purple pen is placed next to the sketch, indicating the artist's tools. The background is softly blurred, focusing attention on the drawing.
