Main bedroom update 2; Parquet Hibernation Tactics
Check out my post on what I've decided to do with the old parquet floor in my house!
Step into my home, where every room tells a story – a story of well, a parquet floor that’s seen better days. Yet another not-so-picture-perfect side of my home improvement saga.
Let’s talk about this parquet floor – the one that, at first glance, might seem like a symphony of squares and brightness. But, and this is a big ‘but,’ I’ve got a confession to make. Brace yourself because, despite the…
Pants update! It's been a year and I figured I would post how they are looking now! They don't look THAT different from a year ago but I took a pretty long break from them. I WILL finish these jeans if they are the last thing I do but for now, this is how they are looking!
About 50% of the patches were painted by me and the other half were done by local/Etsy artists!

Man, definitely understand being passionate about telling folx to not DIY T, but it's really telling something about your character if you call them an idiot for doing it. Our transcestors did what they had to do to survive - the lack of means plus desperation will result in taking very high (and sometimes lethal) risks every time. Have some compassion mate.
Botched surgeries from dodgy surgeons, complications from DIY HRT... these are the results of systemic issues coupled with desperation. Not of someone being an idiot. Those that become disabled or die from taking actions out of desperation deserve compassion from the rest of us, do better.
Knock off the ableism and direct that anger towards our oppressors.
- an older trans person who has never done DIY HRT, is well aware of the risks, but has compassion and understanding
Yep, I am not compassionate and understanding! And it's for the same reason I'm not compassionate and understanding when someone sticks a knife in a light socket:
Compassion and understanding do not stop you from being fucking dead.
Chemistry and biology are laws of the universe. They do not bend. If you fuck around, you will fucking find out. If you want people to compassion and understand their way into having a fuck-ton of dead kids? You will not enjoy my blog.
There's a block button. If you don't like hearing 'this will make you the fuck dead', I'd use it, because a lot of my blog is saying 'yes, in fact, this popular idea will make you the fuck dead'.

there's an invasive called scotch broom here - it was literally sold as an ornament plant but it's crazy invasive and literally flammable green let alone even it dries
anyways we pull any we find... except this odd corner of the property that's on the other side of our driveway road and we never go there
well having a scotch broom patch is just an invitation for it to spread to the rest of the property - unfortunately i can't do anything about my idiotic neighbors who just ignore their entire infested properties but it still has the road to cross
the soil conditions are perfect right now for pulling stuff by the roots - ground is damp and soft, and i can easily pull all the younger stuff but some bigger shrubs have roots going down a foot or more, tap root style
in the past i've taken a chain, wrap it around the trunk a few times, and pull with the tractor - but that only works when there's a trunk at least an inch or so because the chain just won't tighten around something smaller
enter this,
shrub pulling game-changer
basically the chain goes through the ring (of pipe), around the trunk once, then back through the ring and then hooks on; pulling on the chain not only tightens it but also presses the pipe edge into the trunk for grip
needless to say it's a huge improvement over the chain and pulls everything very quickly
i got C to help - she's operating the tractor, moving it forward slightly when all the close broom are cleared, and raising and lowering the bucket which is imparting the pulling force
this collection of broom was pulled in less than an hour, in the past it's taken me all day to get that much without the loop and solo
(the rectangular part is there just because this is an ancient piece of scrap and i don't have a metal cutting wheel right now but as it turns out it's actually not in the way and even convenient because it's easier to grab with gloves on)
I have! A BJD now! /screaming, crying, generally carrying on
I've been wanting one for like... over 15 years or whatever but these fuckers can get expensive and it's only recently I've been able to afford the indulgence, AND! It's one dressed in a style that reminds me vaguely of mid-00s EGA fashion, which my broke teen goth ass had considered to be the HEIGHT OF BOUGIE GOTH FASHION.
THAT'S MA BOI
A fancy ball-jointed doll! Dressed in fancy almost-Elegant Gothic Aristocrat bullshit! My inner child is
