Trick or Treat with Casimir? 🎃👻
You have been... Treated!
Trick or treat here! Please come again, there's plenty of treats to go around!
Casimir has no clue what Halloween is, poor thing. There's a good chance he might be familiar with a similar concept of some variety, but Halloween as we know it? Not a clue.
So, of course, when you explain it to him, he's very curious and excited to learn more! He wants to know everything. I hope you like Halloween, because now he's looking at you like you're an expert with that adorable glimmer in his eyes he gets when he's excited, so buckle up!
You're gonna end up giving him the Full Halloween Treatment. It begins, of course, after your lecture on what exactly Halloween is, with decorating! It's time to leave a very impatient Casimir for an hour or so while you run to the nearest dollar/discount store and raid their Halloween section for all sorts of goodies. And oh, if you thought he was excited before? The way his eyes light up when you come in with your arms overflowing with bags is nothing short of delightful.
You've brought him everything you could find and think of. You have colorful lights in the shapes of pumpkins and cats and bats (plus a string of regular orange lights for him to potentially destroy while trying to figure out how they work), you've got all sorts of decorations, you've got pumpkins! And beyond all of that, you've also grabbed some other supplies, 'cause it's time to get crafty!
With your guidance and assistance, you carve a pumpkin or three together, because what's a classic Halloween without a jack-o'-lantern? This is actually one of the older traditions, so Casimir might be somewhat familiar with carving large vegetables and putting a candle inside of them, but even so, he definitely hasn't had a chance to do it in ages. He loves working with his hands, so he definitely enjoys the chance to make something with you, and after a bit of a learning curve, his pumpkin-carving skills are simply incredible. He's got a knack for intricate details and remarkably steady hands with all the time he spends working on clocks. The little flickering LED candle light you pop in the pumpkin fascinates him, too.
Speaking of making things, back to crafts! You've gotten all of those DIY fall craft kits you could get your hands on, because he obviously never experienced them as a kid. You guide him through painting and glueing and decorating all sorts of things, from little scarecrows to mini foam pumpkins and paper bats and all sorts of things! He's never been happier. I think Casimir would absolutely adore making things with those he loves, especially his very favorite person~
After all of the crafting festivities are done, it's time for other traditions. You tell him about Trick-or-treating, and while you can't exactly take him out to experience it, you help him put together a costume (or perhaps the House provides them for you both, if you ask nicely?) I think he would love dressing up - it's unusual, and he might feel a touch awkward at first, but he'll get over it soon enough and enjoy himself. I'm not sure what he'd be - a werewolf is a bit too mean, but Vampire Casimir? Sign me up! You definitely eat candy together too, even if he doesn't quite get the trick-or-treating fun.
If you ask very very nicely and do some extra chores, the House might just be willing to put on a haunted house for you! It configures itself into a little maze with dim lighting and a spooky atmosphere, has random 'monsters' pop out at you randomly, accompanied by the growls and screams you might expect! Casimir doesn't let go of your hand the entire time, partially because he's more scared than he wants to let on, partially because he wants to protect you - and partially to ground himself so he doesn't lose control of his emotions and shift accidentally.
I don't think he would like scary movies, though. He's fascinated by the way they work, sure, but... I feel like he would prefer more lighthearted films. Maybe a little spooky, but nothing too scary - in addition to not liking the gore and murder of it all because it reminds him of being a 'monster' himself, he's always paranoid that he'll get too spooked by a jump scare and lose control.
All in all though Casimir quickly becomes obsessed with Halloween, and you've never seen him so delighted!

You've experienced a haunting? :O
Yeah. It's a long story. And it was a hugely formative part of my life. It's a reason I left Christianity and baffles me to this day.
I'm actually at a point where I can say you may have read or heard this somewhere because I posted it on reddit. Imagine how that went down.
Are you ready? Get a big ol' hot drink or something. I'm copy-pasta'ing this thing because it takes forever to do. At least it's more readable this way.
When I was 10, we moved to a new house in the country. A cozy, homey place, very comfortable; when i think of home, i think of it. I often miss it, and i like to imagine i will go back and buy it someday (lol Millennial nonsense).
That said, it was the oddest damn house. From what I understand, it had started life in a nearby town before being physically moved about six miles outside city limits. Someone then tacked on about 25% more house--i think the family who lived there before us did the work. I'm told it was some creative DIY. Anyway. They tacked on a new master bedroom and bath and extended the living room, then an enclosed, screened-in back porch.
My parents got the new master. My sister and i got the original master, behind which was this newer porch add-on. I have no idea why they added that porch because it made our room dark af all the time. The moon had to be large and set or rise at just the right times for us to get light in there at night.
A whole year passed very happily. We liked the house. But sometimes--about thirty minutes to an hour after my sister and I turned the light off in our room--something would start bumping in the attic. Big thump, thump, thumps, like someone with two peg legs stamping around in circles. My sister and i called this "the Thump Bumps." We'd make up whole stories about them. Honestly, I think if my unexplained experiences had remained this simple, I would have chalked it up as rats, which we definitely had.
The thing is, I've since dealt with rats, both wild and tame, and while it's not impossible for them to make such sounds--why constant circles? Why did it sound so heavy? If it were that heavy, you'd think the rat was jumping, and if it were jumping, you'd hear the answering "slap" of its tail. Also, rats have their own little lives to run; they're not automata. Why take enormous, bodily leaps in circles and circles in a steady, rhythmic pattern for two to three hours at a time?
But whatever. We weren't afraid. It was odd, not bad.
Stop Touching My Toys
Early summer rolled in. I had recently turned 11. I woke up suddenly one night. I heard someone doing dishes. Running water, dishes clinking against one another. It was black as sin--which meant someone was doing dishes in the dark. I glanced at my clock. 2 AM. O-kay. Well, i was thirsty, so i got up. Just as i reached the end of the hall--just as i turned the corner to the living room--the sound just cut off like someone had hit "stop" on a tape player. There was no squeak of the faucet handle being twisted or the stream slowing to a trickle or dishes being set down. The sound stopped mid-splash, mid-clink.
Complete silence.
Nervous now, but committed, i slinked into the kitchen. The sink was bone dry and everything clean. Why shouldn't it have been when we had finished all the dishes the night before? I still have a clear memory of the moonlight glinting off of the faucet. I didn't know what to think of it, but nothing seemed awry. I drank my water and went to bed.
I don't know how long passed, only that it was summer and Sunday. That morning, i had been playing with my toy dinosaurs, of which i had five--velociraptor, iguanodon, brachiosaurus, styracosaurus, and... i forget the last but it was an herbivore. I had lined them up on my bed very neatly before heading off to church. I was last out of the house because my dinosaurs were important business. Well, when we finally returned, my parents unlocked the door, and in we tromped: brother first, who turned into his room ahead of me, and me second.
I stopped right in the doorway and I felt real fear for the first time. My dinosaurs were no longer lined up on my bed, but scattered across it, like they had been played with. One was lying under the bed; one was lying halfway under my pillow; one was lying at the foot of the bed. Worst of all, my velociraptor had been jammed together with the iguanodon, like they were locked in battle.
This one bothers me a lot because it's scary no matter how I interpret it. If it wasn't spirit shenanigans--it was human shenanigans. My family might have done it, but whom? Dad was unimaginative, Mom was busy, and although my sister or brother would be excellent suspects, I had been last out of the house precisely because I had spent time lining the dinosaurs up. I think I asked my sister if she had done anything and she said no.
Also, the style of play counts out the animal members of the family; to get that iguanodon into my Velociraptor's arms would have necessitated a great deal of shoving and twisting. We had a Labrador retriever and many barn cats, but all of them were outside.
If not my family, this implies that a stranger broke into the house, only played with my dinosaurs, and then left without doing anything else. Which, frankly, is also terrible. In fact, there is nothing scarier than a human being, and I'd prefer ghosts to them any day, but I guess I'm getting off topic now.
So I'm seriously unnerved by this point. I start connecting dots and I don't like what they suggest. I put my dinosaurs away and tell no one.
It Gets Worse
Well, not long after, I wake up in the middle of the night. It is unbelievably dark in this room, but that's normal. I was very cozy, deliciously rested, safe, snug. One problem: my left arm was sticking up out of the covers at an awkward angle, like i was trying to slap the ceiling. It was actually uncomfortable, but i was so relaxed that i didn't want to move, even to put my arm down.
Suddenly, a warm adult hand presses down against mine. It drags down against my palm. The ball of their hand catches on the ball of mine. The skin is rough and moist. I can feel all the fingers. It drags off and flops away. It was like being high-fived by a zombie.
I jerked my hand under the covers. I am now wide awake. I stare into the inky black and i listen intently. I realize that i can't hear my sister breathing. I can't hear anything. Oh, god, i wanted to hear something, anything. I lie there, not daring to move a muscle, straining my eyes and ears. I was certain there was a person there in the darkness, but i couldn't hear them at all. I was sure they'd speak. They'd have to speak, right? You don't high-five strangers in the night and then not talk about it, right?
I don't know how long I waited but eventually, I slept. And when i woke up the next morning, i didn't say anything about it to anyone. I listened to everyone at the breakfast table and nobody mentioned coming into my room or seeing weird strangers in the night. I honestly didn't know what to think about it. I had been wide awake, i knew it! A sleep-walker, perhaps? Maybe my sister? My mother? But no one was a sleep-walker that i knew about.
I decided to put it behind me. Again, I told no one.
That very night, I wake up again. Wide awake. There's a little bit of moonlight but thanks to that goddamn porch it's a mere sliver on the windowsill behind me. It spent all of its strength just getting there; it can illuminate nothing. And this time--this time, I felt like i was waiting. I tried not to wait. I told myself I woke up in the middle of the night all of the time. I was absolutely not going to give any more high-fives to night people. I had my arms under the covers and everything.
A few minutes later, I hear my brother shuffle out of his room. I immediately relaxed. Oh, thank god, just bro. He was probably going to the bathroom.
Instead of walking to the bathroom, which was right across from his room, he shuffled to the end of the hall.
Okay, so he's getting a drink. Fair enough.
But then he turned around at the end of the hall and shuffled back. Alarm bells started jangling in the pit of my stomach. I froze in place and listened.
He reached the door to my room, then turned around and shuffled back to the end of the hallway, then turned around, shuffled back towards my door. He did this about four or five times. I was getting increasingly more concerned.
Finally, I sat up in bed. The shuffling had reached my door once more. I could see nothing.
"Sam?" I asked. "Are you okay?"
Complete and utter silence. My heart started crawling up into my throat. Please say something, come on, say anything!
Then the shuffling began again
AT THE OTHER END OF THE HALLWAY.
I flew under the covers, which is where I lay for hours while a barefoot ghost shuffled back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. My door is open, it can come in, it can see me, oh my gosh!
But you know what's wild? I fell asleep. All it was doing was shuffling. The sound became tiresome and i was tired. I guess shuffling isn't that bad? Better than nonconsensual high-fives for sure.
The next morning, i was again left with a conundrum: "Do I tell someone?" What the hell does one say about something like this, and what did I expect anyone to DO about it? The thing could teleport. Its ability to do dishes transcended time and space. I didn't know what it wanted. I didn't even know what it was. I wasn't even sure I could trust my experience. It was just so goddamn weird.
For the record, my family was one step above Christian fundamentalism. Southern evangelicals believe in a spirit world of blacks and whites: either a spirit is God's or it's the devil's. There is no middle ground. They also don't tend to believe that ghosts are the returned dead, but actors of spiritual anarchy, there to confuse the faithful and lead them astray.
Well, I was an extremely devout child. I'd read a lot about devils. They came in groups, they were destructive, they caused mayhem, they were almost unimaginably wicked.
My spirit-thing had exercised in the hallway and high-fived me.
So, you know, not sure how to categorize that.
Again, I opted to say nothing. I was hyper-alert when i was in the house, but it was normal and comfortable in the daytime. I decided tonight was going to be better. I prayed and I read my Bible.
On My Own
I woke up that night. Wide awake. This time there was no waiting: shuffling started at the far end of the hallway. It walked up to my door and it did not stop. It walked into my room.
My bedroom's floorplan was like so: sister's bed toward the inside of the room, and my bed sat in front of the hallway. There was an E-shaped walking space. And my new shuffle-buddy was like, hell yeah, I love to shuffle in pathways shaped like a capital E. Let's see how many circuits i can make of this bad boy.
It was summer and I had thrown off everything but a single thin sheet. This creepy fucking bastard started poking me through the sheet. It poked the sides of my arms and legs and hips. It had a lot of fingers, but generally, it would poke me on the side it was walking. Also, the fingers were preternaturally small. I kept hoping i was imagining it. Maybe it was the fan. Let it be the fan just whiffing on the sheets.
"Lol," said the ghost, probably.
Did I fall asleep this time? Absolutely fucking not. I lay there absolutely still, barely daring to breathe, for I don't know how long. I kept hoping my sister would get up.
Eventually, the room started lightening. Dawn was coming. I started straining my eyes again. Soon it would grow light enough for me to see my tormentor.
The shuffling stopped at the head of my bed. I heard three drawn-out sighs in a woman's voice. Each one was identical to the one before, like a recording being played.
And, just like that, it was gone.
I launched out of bed like it was Cape Canaveral. To my surprise, my sister followed me immediately. I was angry at first, like, you mean YOU didn't do anything? (She was 9, idk what I thought she was going to do.)
I threw myself into my mom's bed and started babbling about ghosts. There was a ghost in my room it was walking around my bed and it was touching me and it sighed and it high-fived me and why wasn't my mom looking concerned? Why did she look crabby?
"Watchword, please, stop," Mom said. "You're going to scare your sister."
I frantically turned to my sister. She stared at me blankly and said nothing. I realized she must have jumped out of bed because i had disturbed her, not because the ghost had woken her up.
This was beside the fact: my mother didn't believe me.
I hate to tell y'all this but i would routinely lie as a child. I'm not talking about mundane activities like whether i had cleaned my room or finished homework. I'm talking about, "Today I saw a dragon while i was riding the bus!" Or, "I found a magical pool full of fairies!"
The only thing worse than being disbelieved by my own mother was the realization that i had played myself. I was the boy who cried wolf, but instead of wolves it was Shuffles, chore-ghost.
I was on my own.
Jesus Magic
So that night, i prayed before i went to bed, and i threw on my comforter even though it was uncomfortably warm. When I woke up suddenly that night, right on the dot, i woke up afraid--and mad. Like let's throw hands bitch. If Mom wasn't going to help me, i was going to help myself.
Right on schedule, the thing shuffles from the end of the hallway into the room and begins shuffling. Moonlight was starting to pool on the floor but it wasn't illuminating and the ghost wasn't getting very close to it.
Thankfully, no more poking.
Shuffles had only gotten three-fourths of the way into its cycle when i leaped out of my bed. I balled my hands into fists. I stood straight and threw my shoulders back. This was great and everything but this was as far as I'd planned. Also, I was 11 years old. Nobody is afraid of babies except for smaller babies.
The ghost stopped. I could feel it regarding me from a corner. It felt so apathetic. Like it really didn't care, but go off, i guess.
I groped around for something to say and pulled off the verbal equivalent of the housewife who starts throwing flowerpots and ballpoint pens at a home intruder.
"You'd better not hurt my sister," I said loudly, hoping my sister would wake up (she did not).
Silence. I stood there, feeling dumber by the second. Was I going to try and fist-fight a ghost who could teleport? After a couple of extremely awkward minutes, I lay back down, and just like that, Shuffles started walking again. I spent the rest of the night wide awake and in despair.
Again, as the dawn light began to fill the room, and just before I could see anything, the ghost sighed three times--each time identical--and was gone.
Again, i sprang out of bed and marched to my parents' room.
My dad had come home the night before. He often worked at faraway locations for weeks at a time. So as I tried to tell Mom what had happened, he leaned up on an elbow and listened.
He believed me!
Mom tried to tell him I told stories like that all the time. I don't remember the exact gist of the conversation, but he prayed with me, and I felt better.
That night was Wednesday night church. Dad put in a prayer request for me and sang a special song he'd selected that mirrored my fears. I felt so seen and so cared-for. And that night, he prayed over my doorway, asking God to put an angel there. He also told me what to say if the ghost showed up.
I went to sleep elated.
I woke up that night again. This time I was just buzzing with excitement. Was I about to see a ghost fight an angel?
The shuffling started at the end of the hallway. It grew closer and closer. I was so afraid that i might have to face the ghost myself. I waited for any sign that the prayer had worked.
Shuffles shuffled straight through the door. Didn't even hesitate. Shuffled right beside the bed. This time the moonlight fell far enough that I should have seen something walking--pressing into the carpet, at least, right? But I could see nothing at all.
My heart sank. I sat up anyway. Shuffles stopped right beside me. I could feel it regarding me.
"In the name of Jesus," i said, "get out of this house and never come back."
Huge, pregnant silence.
Then: "Haaaaah." One long woman's sigh, identical to all the ones before. And just like that, it was gone.
I was able to sleep the rest of the night, and the next morning i raced up to Dad and gave him a huge hug and told him it had worked!
Now, I've got to interject a note here. I am no longer an evangelical, but an atheist. This one experience kept me religious longer than i might have been otherwise. It was also the seed of some doubt and thought... because, like a bad horror movie, it didn't end.
This Is the Song That Never Ends
Early fall, about 6 in the afternoon, I was sitting in my brother's room, reading a racist primer from the fifties, as one does. I started to feel uncomfortable. I felt like I was being watched and i couldn't pay attention to the text. My eyes kept sliding over the words.
I wanted to get up and leave. But when I really thought about it, I got a bit tetchy.
"No," I thought. "There is absolutely no reason to leave. I won't."
I started just staring at the page, doing no reading at all, as the uncomfortable feeling grew and grew and grew.
Then, from the door: "HAAAH." A man's sigh, but like the woman's sigh pitched down.
I flung the book and sprang. When I hit the doorway, i passed through a heavy coldness. Hit the hallway. Realized the hallway was downright hot compared to the room--probably a difference of fifteen to twenty degrees. What's more, passing through that coldness was like stepping through a door. As i walked into the living room, i marveled. Dad was watching Wheel of Fortune turned way up, bro was on the computer, Mom and sister were cooking and conversing loudly.
When I had been in that room, I hadn't heard anything. It had been completely silent.
After that, all obviously weird activity dropped off precipitously. It didn't end, though. A number of small, bizarre things followed me into my mid-twenties. At one point, I had a customer tell me I had an angel, and I said, "HAHA no. No thanks."
I have my theories; that's all they are. Mostly, I want nothing to do with it. I ain't going into no haunted houses, y'all. I don't trust something that can look or sound like anything it wants. I can't understand their motivations and that alone is reason to stay far, far away.
I became an atheist. I was able to explain away a lot of nonsense i had thought was miraculous as a child. I haven't been able to explain this. And honestly? I'm kind of grateful. Keeps me humble. I feel like it was a truly rare experience.

Arduino Due vs. Mega: A Comprehensive Comparison
What is Arduino Due and Mega?
The Arduino platform has revolutionized the world of DIY electronics, providing hobbyists and professionals alike with versatile and powerful microcontroller boards. Among the myriad of options, the Arduino Due and Arduino Mega stand out for their advanced features and robust performance. The Arduino Due, introduced in 2012, is the first Arduino board based on a 32-bit ARM core microcontroller, the Atmel SAM3X8E. In contrast, the Arduino Mega, built around the 8-bit ATmega2560 microcontroller, is known for its abundant I/O pins and memory. Understanding the differences between these two boards can help in selecting the right one for specific projects, enhancing both functionality and efficiency.
Processing Power and Performance
The processing capabilities of the Arduino Due and Mega are distinctly different, primarily due to their core microcontrollers. The Arduino Due, with its 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 processor running at 84 MHz, offers significantly higher processing power compared to the Arduino Mega's 8-bit ATmega2560, which operates at 16 MHz. This difference in architecture and clock speed means that the Due can handle more complex calculations and tasks faster and more efficiently than the Mega. For projects requiring high computational power, such as real-time data processing or handling multiple sensors simultaneously, the Due is the superior choice. However, for simpler tasks, the Mega's processing power may suffice.
Memory and Storage Capabilities
Memory is another critical aspect where the Arduino Due and Mega diverge. The Arduino Due is equipped with 512 KB of flash memory for code storage and 96 KB of SRAM for data. On the other hand, the Arduino Mega has 256 KB of flash memory and 8 KB of SRAM. Additionally, the Due features a Direct Memory Access (DMA) controller, which allows for efficient memory operations, freeing up the CPU to handle other tasks. These memory enhancements make the Due more suitable for applications requiring large codebases and significant data handling, such as advanced robotics or sophisticated control systems. The Mega, with its more modest memory, is ideal for less demanding applications.
Input/Output Capabilities and Expansion
Both the Arduino Due and Mega are renowned for their extensive input/output (I/O) capabilities, yet they cater to different needs. The Mega boasts a whopping 54 digital I/O pins, 16 analog inputs, and 4 UARTs, making it ideal for projects that require multiple sensors, actuators, or communication interfaces. The Due, while offering fewer digital I/O pins at 54, includes 12 analog inputs and 4 UARTs, along with additional features like two DAC outputs for analog signal generation and enhanced PWM capabilities. These features provide the Due with superior analog output capabilities, making it suitable for applications like audio processing or advanced signal generation.
Power Consumption and Compatibility
Power consumption and compatibility are practical considerations when choosing between the Arduino Due and Mega. The Due operates at 3.3V logic levels, which makes it more power-efficient than the Mega, which uses 5V logic levels. This lower voltage operation is beneficial for battery-powered projects where energy efficiency is crucial. However, the 3.3V logic also means that the Due is not directly compatible with 5V components without level shifters. The Mega, with its 5V logic, offers broader compatibility with existing Arduino shields and components, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of projects. Understanding these power and compatibility nuances can help in making an informed decision based on the project's specific requirements.

a meme!
Thanks for tagging me, @grimm-lynn :)
1. Are you named after anyone?
I think the intention was to name me after my dad's mum (who died when he was very little), but to spell it in a more modern way. Inadvertantly, it's also a portmanteau of my parents' first names.
2. When was the last time you cried?
I was very sick and very tired and very frustrated when the removal guys broke it to me midway through emptying the house that they absolutely couldn't take any of my garden plants over the Irish Sea because of fucking BREXIT. I was also very angry with my husband, who was meant to have checked this. In the end, we managed to palm the plants off on friends and family and we'll try to bring them over later, once we've looked at the paperwork involved.
3. Do you have kids?
No!! I have known for a very long time that I never wanted them and do not have even an iota of maternal interest let along instinct.
4. Do you use sarcasm a lot?
It has its uses.
5. What sports do you play/have you played?
My weekend hobbies as a kid were horse-riding and karate, and I played field hockey at school, did long jump and 200m sprint. But then, y’know. Everyone else got taller and I didn’t really. I dabbled in rowing at uni, because it was kind of expected that you'd try it, but my late-night carousing rather interfered with the early mornings. Also, as mentioned, I am short. Since then I haven't really done anything regularly except about a year where I got into weights. I'd like to get back into picking up heavy things and putting them down again, but I resent the cost of gyms and I need to have a structured class where someone tells me what to do, I don't have the willpower or imagination for solo training.
6. What’s the first thing you notice about other people?
Hm, it's tough to describe (my mum would say 'their energy') but like...whether they're engaging with me, like really with me and curious about what we're talking about, or if there's that feeling that you're on the clock to prove you're interesting or whatever before they get bored.
7. What’s your eye colour?
Blue
8. Scary movies or happy endings?
Weird things to compare?? But uh. Happy endings probably? Not in my scary movies though. I like scary movies with bittersweet endings. Though the more I think about this choice the more confused I get.
9. Any special talents?
I'm so bad at answering these things, my mind just goes blank and I'm like 'oh pffff I don't do anything special, there's always going to be someone who's better than I am'. Assigned Jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none. There are lots of things I like to do and I try to do them well. I guess I will say that you probably want me around in a stressful situation - I'm calm and I love coming up with solutions to things.
10. Where were you born?
In a county hospital in a large and rural county of England.
11. What are your hobbies?
Ok, well. Writing, obvs. Fic and poetry now and again. There's an original idea that's been rattling round my head for a few years that I keep saying *this* NaNoWriMo I'll do it! And then don't. Art used to be much higher up the list but I'm so rusty. I haven't painted in years (...has it been over a decade?). Gardening (I miss my garden so much SO MUCH rn). Baking and cooking. I go through phases of manic knitting interspersed with a little crochet, but I want to improve my sewing - I have my granny-in-law's sewing machine I need to learn how to use. If we get this amazing house we’re looking at I’m going to have to get good at DIY, too.
12. Do you have any pets?
Two greyhounds and six (yes. six.) ferrets.
13. How tall are you?
5'1"
14. Favorite subject in school?
Art and English lit.
15. Dream job?
Not to be all 'I don't dream of labour' but I for sure don't dream of working for other people/companies. As you can see from the hobbies section, I like to DO stuff and be busy, but I like to work on my own terms and I like project work. So my freelance editing and proofing stuff suits me fairly well right now, though I dream more of a UBI that would let me do more with my time that wasn't just about earning, but could encompass more volunteering and community stuff. Being on furlough during lockdown suited me so well - I did so much and recovered so much energy that I was much more willing to engage with strangers as well as friends through video chat etc.
Tag fifteen mutuals - FIFTEEN?! huh ok, I’m tagging y’all but no obligation, right? And Idk who’s already been tagged, sorry if you’ve done this already and I didn’t see! @stripedroseandsketchpads @notfromcold @erinaceina @bellaroles @batri-jopa @donnaimmaculata @notabuddhist @kheldara @blxcksqvadron @boogerwookiesugarcookie @elwenyere @thatonelemontreeiforgorabout @jimtheviking @weirdsociology @rapidashmascot

Offshore Tax Preparation and Staffing for CPA Firms
In today’s fast-paced business landscape, offshore tax preparation and offshore staffing solutions have become invaluable for accountants and CPA firms in the United States. By leveraging offshore talent, firms can streamline tax preparation processes, reduce operational costs, and enhance service quality. This guide explores the benefits, process, and key considerations for US-based CPA firms when outsourcing tax preparation and staffing solutions.
What is Offshore Tax Preparation?
Offshore tax preparation refers to the practice of outsourcing tax-related tasks, such as 1040 tax prep and corporate tax preparation, to qualified professionals located outside of the United States. Typically, CPA firms outsource to countries like India, which offers a highly skilled workforce, competitive pricing, and proficiency in US tax regulations.
Benefits of Offshore Tax Preparation for CPA Firms
1. Cost Efficiency
Outsourcing tax preparation work offshore significantly lowers overhead costs for CPA firms. Offshore destinations, particularly India, offer skilled labor at a fraction of the cost compared to domestic hiring, enabling firms to maximize profits while maintaining high-quality service.
2. Access to Skilled Professionals
Offshore teams specializing in US tax law are trained to handle complex tax requirements, including S Corp tax preparation services, C Corp tax preparation services, and individual 1040 tax returns. By tapping into this expertise, firms can offer clients a broader range of services without the cost of in-house hiring.
3. Enhanced Efficiency and Turnaround Times
Outsourcing allows CPA firms to expand their service capacity, which improves overall productivity and helps meet high-demand periods during tax season. Offshore teams work round-the-clock, enabling a quicker turnaround on tasks such as tax return outsourcing.
4. Focus on Core Business Activities
By outsourcing time-intensive tasks, CPA firms can focus more on client relationship management, advisory services, and strategic growth initiatives. This makes offshore tax preparation an attractive option for both small and large firms alike.
Key Services Provided in Offshore Tax Preparation
S Corp and C Corp Tax Preparation
Many offshore professionals are adept at handling S Corporation and C Corporation tax preparation. They understand the intricacies of each business structure, from compliance requirements to tax deductions, and ensure accuracy and timeliness.
1040 Tax Prep Outsourcing to India
1040 tax prep for individuals is one of the most commonly outsourced services to India. Offshore teams are well-versed in US individual tax forms, ensuring that they can deliver accurate and timely submissions for US clients.
TurboTax Assistance and Outsourcing
Leveraging offshore staff for TurboTax support enables firms to handle a larger volume of clients who require guided assistance with TurboTax filing. This service is particularly beneficial for clients who prefer DIY tax solutions but need professional guidance.
Offshore Staffing for CPA Firms
1. What is Offshore Staffing?
Offshore staffing is a comprehensive solution for CPA firms looking to hire accounting professionals who work remotely from other countries. Offshore staffing firms provide trained professionals who act as an extension of the firm’s in-house team, performing tasks such as tax preparation, accounting, and bookkeeping.
2. Offshore Staffing vs. Remote Staffing
While remote staffing refers to hiring employees who work from a different location within the same country, offshore staffing is a global solution that allows firms to hire from countries where labor costs are lower and talent pools are larger.
Benefits of Offshore Staffing for Accountants and CPAs
Access to a Broader Talent Pool
Countries like India have a high concentration of accounting graduates and professionals experienced in US tax regulations, which enables CPA firms to access a large and qualified workforce.
Scalability
Offshore staffing provides flexibility and scalability to meet the demands of a growing firm. During peak tax seasons, offshore staff can be expanded, and scaled down afterward, without the complications of local hiring.
Improved Work-Life Balance for Onshore Teams
By delegating repetitive or time-consuming tasks offshore, CPA firms can reduce the workload for their onshore team, helping prevent burnout and enhancing overall employee satisfaction.
How to Choose the Right Offshore Staffing Firm
Selecting the right offshore staffing firm is essential to maximize the benefits of outsourcing. Consider the following factors:
1. Expertise in US Taxation
Ensure that the offshore staffing firm has experience with US tax codes, forms, and regulations. This expertise is critical, especially when outsourcing complex tasks such as S Corp tax preparation services and C Corp tax preparation services.
2. Security and Confidentiality
Given the sensitivity of financial data, choose an offshore provider with stringent data security protocols. The firm should comply with US data protection laws and ensure a secure data transfer process to maintain client trust.
3. Communication and Reporting Standards
A reliable offshore staffing partner should provide regular progress updates, detailed reports, and ensure that the offshore team is easily reachable. Clear communication channels facilitate seamless collaboration and faster issue resolution.
4. Client Support and Responsiveness
Select an offshore staffing provider with a strong track record of customer support. In a dynamic industry like tax preparation, client needs and deadlines may shift; a responsive offshore team can adapt and continue to meet client expectations.
Tax Preparation Outsourcing: Key Considerations
Outsourcing tax preparation is an efficient way to optimize operational capacity and cater to a broader client base. Here are some important points to consider:
Data Security and Compliance
Data security is a major concern in tax outsourcing. Offshore teams should employ high-standard encryption practices to protect client data. Additionally, they should comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and IRS requirements for data handling.
Technology and Software Integration
Offshore providers should be proficient in major accounting and tax preparation software, including TurboTax, QuickBooks, and Xero. This expertise ensures seamless integration between the offshore team’s workflow and the CPA firm’s existing systems.
Quality Assurance and Error Resolution
Reliable offshore teams have a thorough quality assurance process to minimize errors. It’s advisable to request quality reports and error correction protocols before finalizing a partnership with an offshore provider.
Training and Upskilling
Ensure that the offshore team undergoes continuous training to stay updated on the latest tax laws and accounting regulations in the US. This practice maintains the accuracy and reliability of outsourced services.

Top Offshore Staffing Services for CPA Firms
1. Offshore Staffing for Small Business CPAs
For small business CPA providers, offshore staffing offers a cost-effective way to manage tasks such as bookkeeping, payroll, and tax preparation outsourcing. Offshore teams are familiar with US small business tax requirements, providing seamless service to clients.
2. Offshore Staffing for Tax Preparation Firms
CPA firms specializing in tax preparation can benefit significantly from offshore staffing by scaling their workforce during peak periods. By hiring offshore CPAs, these firms ensure that they have sufficient resources to handle seasonal client demand.
3. Offshore Tax Accountants for Compliance
For clients with complex compliance needs, offshore tax accountants provide expertise in meeting IRS requirements and mitigating compliance risks. Firms can thus expand their client base by offering specialized compliance services.
The Future of Offshore Staffing and Tax Preparation for CPA Firms
Offshore staffing and tax preparation outsourcing are rapidly growing in the CPA sector, as firms recognize the value in tapping into global talent pools. By reducing costs, improving service delivery, and freeing up time for client engagement, offshore solutions enable CPA firms to operate more efficiently in a competitive market.Discover how offshore tax preparation can transform your firm’s workflow; Schedule a call now!

Interior Design Ideas for Travel Adventurers
For those with an insatiable wanderlust, the thrill of adventure doesn't have to end when you return home. By weaving elements of your travels into your interior design, you can create a space that not only reflects your worldly experiences but also inspires your next journey. Here are some creative ideas our interior designers in Bangalore compiled to transform your home into a sanctuary for travel adventurers.
1. Showcase Souvenirs as Art
Souvenirs aren't just trinkets; they're tangible memories of your adventures. Instead of letting these treasures collect dust, turn them into focal points. Create a gallery wall using shadow boxes to display small items like seashells, tickets, or foreign currency. Larger pieces, such as masks or textiles, can be elegantly framed or hung directly on the wall. This not only personalizes your space but also sparks stories of your travels with guests.
2. Map Out Your Adventures
Maps are a timeless way to incorporate travel themes into your decor. Consider a large world map mural as an accent wall in your living room or bedroom. You can pin places you've been or plan to visit. For a more vintage feel, search for antique maps at flea markets or online stores. These can be framed and used as part of your wall art collection. A map-themed rug or throw pillows can subtly tie the theme together without overwhelming the space.
3. Travel-Inspired Color Palettes
Choosing the right color palette can evoke the essence of your favorite destinations. Think about the colors that define the places you've visited. The blues and whites of the Greek Isles, the earthy tones of a safari in Africa, or the vibrant hues of a Moroccan market can inspire your color choices. Use these colors in your wall paint, upholstery, or decorative accents to create an atmosphere reminiscent of your travels.
4. Curate a Cozy Travel-Themed Reading Nook
Design a reading nook where you can relive your travel stories through books and photographs. Start with a comfortable chair and a small side table. Incorporate a globe lamp or a stack of travel books to enhance the theme. Add a plush throw and cushions in patterns that remind you of your favorite destinations. This space can serve as a retreat where you plan future travels or simply unwind with a good book.
5. Adventure-evoking Furniture
Furniture pieces that tell a story or have their roots in different cultures can transform a room. Consider a trunk-style coffee table that doubles as storage for travel memorabilia. Moroccan poufs or a Japanese tatami mat can add an authentic touch. Opt for furniture made from reclaimed wood or materials that remind you of the rugged outdoors for a rustic, adventurous feel.
6. Personalized Displays and DIY Projects
Infuse your personality into your space with DIY projects that reflect your travel experiences. Create a photo collage with snapshots from your travels, using frames of varying sizes and styles for an eclectic look. Craft a custom clock with time zones of your favorite cities. Use driftwood, stones, or other natural elements collected during your trips to create unique decor pieces like candle holders or wall hangings.
7. Layer Textures and Patterns
Travel often exposes us to a rich tapestry of textures and patterns. Incorporate these into your home with textiles such as throws, rugs, and curtains. Mix and match patterns from different cultures for a bohemian look. Kilim rugs, ikat prints, and batik fabrics offer vibrant and diverse options that can bring a worldly appeal to your rooms.
8. Create a Travel Memory Corner
Dedicate a corner of your home to a memory shrine of your travels. Use a small shelf or a vintage ladder to display travel guides, journals, and small artifacts. This corner can be a living memory board, constantly evolving as you embark on new adventures. It serves as a daily reminder of your journeys and the incredible places waiting to be explored.
By incorporating these interior design ideas with proper guidance from a team of interior designers in India, you can create a home that not only reflects your love for travel but also inspires future adventures. Each element—whether it’s the display of a cherished souvenir or a color palette inspired by a far-off land—adds depth and character to your space. Let your home be a canvas that tells the story of your travels, making every day an adventure in itself.

10 Surprising Uses for Old Car Parts You Never Thought Of
Have you ever considered your old, beat-up car and thought it was only good for the scrap heap? Think again. Your old ride has plenty of life left, just not on the road. From quirky furniture to art that’ll make your neighbours jealous, old car parts can be transformed into unexpected things. Let’s dive into ten surprising ways to breathe new life into those rusty relics.
1. Turn an Engine Block into a Coffee Table
Imagine this: you walk into your living room, and there’s an engine block sitting there, but wait—it’s a coffee table! Just add a glass top, and you’ve got yourself a rugged, conversation-starting piece of furniture. It’s industrial, unique, and a surefire way to make your place stand out. Engine blocks are perfect for this because of their intricate design and heavy-duty build. Plus, you can customise the look by painting the block or choosing a glass top that matches your decor. Not only does this make a statement, but it also repurposes an otherwise discarded part into a functional and stylish piece.
2. Repurpose Tires as Planters
Who knew tyres could look so good with flowers growing out of them? Old tyres make excellent planters. Stack them up, paint them bright colours, and fill them with soil and your favourite plants. You’ve got a garden that’s as vibrant as it is eco-friendly. Tires are durable and weather-resistant, making them ideal for outdoor use. They can be arranged in various configurations to create unique garden features, such as hanging planters or vertical gardens. The bonus? You’re recycling and reducing waste, making your garden beautiful and sustainable.
3. Create a Unique Wall Clock from a Hubcap
Got an old hubcap lying around? Turn it into a wall clock! Hubcaps come in various designs and can add a vintage or modern touch to your home, depending on the style you choose. All you need is a clock mechanism, which you can find at most craft stores, and a bit of creativity. Drill a hole in the center of the hubcap, attach the clock hands and mechanism, and you’ve got a timepiece that’s both functional and stylish. It’s a perfect addition to any garage, man cave, or even your living room if you’re going for that eclectic look. And if you need a new cover for your repurposed project or current car, check out the options at carcover.com for high-quality car covers that can protect your vehicle from the elements.
4. Use Seat Belts as Dog Leashes

Plus, your furry friend will have a unique leash that’s sure to turn heads at the park. Seat belts are designed to withstand a lot of force, making them perfect for strong or energetic dogs.

Car doors can be transformed into funky garden gates with a bit of creativity and elbow grease. Add some hinges, a latch, and a fresh coat of paint, and you’ve got a gate that’s sure to make your garden stand out. The solid construction of car doors makes them ideal for this purpose, as they can withstand the elements and provide a secure entrance to your garden. You can even use the windows in the doors to create a peek-through feature, adding an extra layer of charm and functionality. This project not only recycles car parts but also adds a unique and personalized touch to your outdoor space.

8. Build a Barbecue Smoker from an Oil Drum
An old oil drum can be turned into a barbecue smoker with a little bit of welding and some ingenuity. Cut out a door, add a smoke stack, and you’re ready to start smoking meat like a pro. Oil drums are perfect for this because they’re made of heavy-duty metal that can withstand high temperatures. By adding grates and a firebox, you can create a smoker that’s ideal for cooking large cuts of meat or even whole chickens. This project not only gives you a unique and functional smoker but also helps you recycle a large metal container that might otherwise go to waste.
9. Use a Car Frame as a Garden Trellis
Old car frames can make excellent garden trellises. They’re sturdy, provide plenty of room for climbing plants, and add a unique industrial touch to your garden. Car frames are typically made of strong metal that can support the weight of heavy vines or vegetables. You can place the frame in your garden and train plants to climb over it, creating a living sculpture that’s both beautiful and functional. This project not only reuses materials but also creates a striking focal point in your garden that’s sure to impress visitors.

Exhaust pipes can be bent and welded into all sorts of interesting shapes. Use them to create unique sculptures or wall art that will add a touch of creativity and industrial charm to your space. Exhaust pipes are flexible and can be manipulated into various forms, making them perfect for artistic projects. You can create abstract sculptures, wall hangings, or even functional art like coat racks or shelving.
