#THIS GOT A LITTLE LENGTH MY BAD

[coolcatsodalite]

I've officially caught up on the One Piece anime!

Took me a bit over a year cuz i was super inconsistent about watching but! Did you know that if you start watching today, at a rate of around 8-10 episodes a day (not a whole lot longer than some movies these days) you could be totally caught up by the time the anime returns in April? Now is the time!

Ok my math maybe can't fully be trusted and i didn't double check lol but you absolutely can finish if you start now and are consistent

No crafting update today because I spent all my spoons checking out a local(ish) wildlife reservation/hiking place, which was awesome! I could not explore the whole place, and it is very much "only wheelchair friendly if the person pushing my wheelchair is capable of holding my entire weight against a steep slope and immediately pushing the chair up another only partially paved steep slope", but I walked the whole time*! I got to hear wolves howling through the forest and it is a whole hell of a lot eerier to hear on a foggy day in a winter forest than it was the only other time I've heard it, which was a very bright sunny day in an amphitheater at a zoo where one wolf howled alone on stage. There were crows cawing and wolves howling and it was absolutely magnificent and suddenly a whole lot of things from various fantasy novels I read as a kid hit very different. Like, I get why hearing the wolves howl in the night would be alarming now! *we did bring my rollator/transport chair in the car, and the backup plan was that my dad or my brother would go get it and push me back to the car if I needed help

i dont want to give in to Modern Shapewear but i really hate when im trying to have a Fun Outfit and theres fucking Distinct Lines from various under wear bands (bra, undies, maybe a pair of tights?) all at separate points? that are impossible to hide bc the outer wear is fucking form fitting spandex

A week straight of temperatures hitting minus 3 and minus 4 at night might finally have convinced my Venus Flytrap to go to bed

a  heart  poured  out  until  there  was  nothing  left  but  gray  despair.  forgotten  was  the  flow  of  time,  the  purpose  of  an  interview  being  questions  &  answers.  it  had  grown  into  a  conversation, and  yet  was  the  best,  most  honest  interview  he  had  ever  had.  funny  thing  :  hadn’t  caesar  been  certain  the  seventy  fifth  would  have  been  their  last.

enough  material  produced  to  fill  weeks  of  airtime  for  a  rebellion.  an  hour  of  content  cut  into  little  pieces  (  or  more  than  an  hour  ?  )  .  whatever  they  needed  at  a  given  moment  :  the  pain  of  killing.  the  fear  within  an  arena.  the  nightmares  that  followed    —  this  is  where  things  had  gotten  too  personal,  a  weak  sob  from  his  chest,  a  confession  spoken  out  loud  for  the  first  time.  the  painful  nights  and  the  guilt  and  the  faces  that  never  left.  it  was  easier  to  talk  about  love.  katniss’  love  for  peeta.  caesar’s  decidedly  lack  of  love  and  attachment.  love  that  meant  pain,  that  meant  snow’s  exploitation of weakness.  they  had  spoken  about  the  boy  in  the  hospital  room  down  some  floors  in  district  thirteen.  the  cruelty  of  a  mad  king  who  did  not  shy  away  from  hurting  anyone  as  long  as  it  meant  a  gathering  of  control  —  succumbing  to  power.  it  was  the  reason  for  their  rebellion.

caesar  knew  his  purpose  in  front  of  the  cameras.  years  upon  years,  a  spokesperson  for  the  regime  itself.  not  much  had  changed  that  interview  —  just  a  different  regime,  a  different  kind  of  control  sought ( none of those things said out loud — he was many things, but certainly no fool ). but  he  had  known  what  was  expected.  not  only  the  showcasing  of  the  capitol’s  prized  possession  called  caesar  flickerman  on  the  side  of  the  rebellion  (  a  shocker  to  many  loyalists,  surely  !  )  but  he  had  been  an  example.  important  for  everyone  to  see  how  no  one  was  safe.  it  had  been  a  topic  to  divulge  into  during  their  interview-turned-conversation.  recent  memories  flashing  back,  a  retelling  of  what  had  happened.

it  was  a  relief  when  the  conversation  thinned  out.  when  his  best  friend’s  rumbling  voice  called  for  a    "  cut  "    .    the  mockingjay  left,  but  caesar  stayed  behind.

the  stage  empty  (  as  tiny  and  rudimentary  a  stage  it  was  )  .    the  applause  that  had  died  down.  it  were  only  a  few  steps  to  the  crutches,  but  he  imagined  every  movement  to  be  a  tiresome  one.

drained.  nothing  but  drained.  caesar  hadn’t  noticed  the  gray  shadow,  the  pale  woman  and  her  pale  eyes.  the  back  of  his  hands  wiped  away  at  tears,  blemished  cheeks  still  hurting.  it  had  been  vital  for  their  efforts  to  let  panem  see  him  like  that,  but  he  felt  naked  in  front  of  her.  how exposing, terrible, truly.

my general loathing of the new sims infant update vs the rest of the people who lobbied endlessly for years on end to 'free the babies!' and got it and (imo) ruined the game feels a lot like

I- if you gave me a good quality drill, some nice noise cancelling headphones and a wall I may go ham on...

I will drill so many holes. It is so unbelievably fun I wish I could just do that whenever I feel like it who cares about actually hanging anything up.

5 am is the best time to get the drill out and hang stuff up because it's when the walls are at their softest
