today I am reading this amazing Korean webcomic Like a Butterfly
about a grandpa who pursues his dream of learning ballet
I've just been to the library and I have 10 new delicious books to read ๐๐๐
Any artists here good at doing rooks? Not crows or ravens, it's gotta be rooks. Show me yer rooks
I hear there's a bit of a heatwave in the UK right now. As someone from the UK who's been living in South Africa for almost a decade, some things I do to deal with the heat:
* Feet in a bowl of cold water
* Ice pack wrapped in a damp tea towel (especially good under your feet in bed at night)
* Damp tea towel around neck
* Spray bottle to spritz self with water
Keep your 'hot' zones cool; armpits, under boobs, crotch, back of knees. Having cool feet and neck helps immensely too.
verity learns guitar Show more
it turns out medical questionnaires are more expensive than i remember and the course that implied they would be paying weekly in fact pay uhhh bi-monthly. i accounted for what i thought was a realistic worst case scenario of waiting another month before i got paid.
i have enough money to cover me for the next week or so and despite my protests apparently i need it to stretch to the second week of august so if you wanna help out or boost i would appreciate it.

Hey London ppl: can you or do you know anyone who can help me get some estrogen and tblockers, just to last a week-month. I just moved here and signed up for a GP and should be registered Wednesday but I'm going to run out of both before then, and hopefully I can get a same day appointment but they are usually taking 3 weeks :o
Boosts and help very very appreciated.
self-imposed goal: I have 24 days to learn the guitar enough to lead a singing session
I already know about 4 chords
tomorrow: figure out how one strums
I love talking about kit bags, tell me about your kit bags
first aid kits, music kits, for holidaying or gigs or camping: how do you arrange your kits? what do you like to put in them? what do you often forget?
Ahh I have missed the sound of thunder
this smol cloud covered the sun as much as it could.
it's doing it's best!
another day, another email I forgot to send because it was an outlook window hidden by the inbox window RIP โ ๏ธ
well shit. another of my editors (that's FOUR now) have had to step down.
i love them all, i really do, but now instead of gaining the FIVE we need from the applications we've received, we're actually only up ONE.
if any women-identified folks would like experience being an editor for a fucking awesome lit mag, fill out the application!
my computer keeps switching to eduroam instead of house wifi without telling me lol
rather, yes because it's a nice smell but it's not nice weather to be outside tonight... blazing hot in the day and damp at night :<
