You’re never going to make everyone happy and that’s okay.
Your needs and your happiness matter, and they deserve to come first.
Do what’s right for you, without carrying the weight of what others might think or say

Sometimes people break one treat in half and pretend it's two treats. It's not. It's a lie. That's a hard life lesson Marcel learned today.

Mum sent me outside for a while this afternoon. She said my help was a hindrance when she was sewing! As if, I only like biting the thread as mum moves it. It must be helpful. #cat #sundayvibes #helpingpaws #sewing 😺😺😺🐾🐾🐾🏡🏡🏡🪡🪡🪡🧵🧵🧵😻😻😻

I wish I had the talent, time and patience to do this!
Someone made a diorama of Trosky Castle from Kingdom Come Deliverance 2!
As Indy would say; this belongs in a museum!

Wonderful night to watch stars. There are these new gadgets, Seestar astrophoto systems, that give amateurs a power tool to study the heavens.

This book has been so soothing. I have probably learned more about the foreign policies that shape the world just in the first three chapters than I have in at least the last 15 years of news media. 🙃 It's helped clarify a lot of the absolutely batshit nonsense of the current timeline. COMFORT READ

Deer have been walking around the farm again. They tend to munch on garden plants while totally ignoring the fact that they could walk right in to the hay shed. I wish they’d leave my rose bush alone.

#Bird display at the Natural History Museum in Pacific Grove, California
As I made my plans for this trip, @rescuerofcritters.bsky.social mentioned that the town in which I would be staying had a nice natural history museum. I wasn’t sure I would have time to do it, but when my friends had to

Communities need used-book shops.

As the trends in our world are increasingly standardized and entrenched by "predictive" technologies that stifle innovation and reduce human actions into economic categories...

We need a full range of possibilities for readers and communities to explore and share.
