The circle game

I’m noticing more and more mowed lawns in my neighborhood - a sure sign that the days of my recalcitrance are numbered. I know that once I climb aboard the mowing-go-round, there’s no getting off it for six months.

So it makes sense, the way I see it, to stall as long as possible before launching what will become a weekly ritual. What’s more, mowing stimulates growth, which necessitates more mowing, which stimulates growth ...

And that’s not just an old wives tale. I looked it up. Grass really does grow faster after it’s cut as it tries to recover its genetic norm. In response to the reduced surface area of each blade, it grows faster to maximize photosynthesis.

Dustin posts a Tiktok where it’s very clear that he was going to say something important but was instantly distracted by the snippet of conversation walking (unannounced) through his front door.

Eddie: …like when you’re a kid and you didn’t understand the concept of death so you kept putting bugs in your pockets and killing them on accident.

Steve: That’s not a universal experience, Eddie.

Eddie: Yes, it is. Everybody did that. You did that when you were a kid.

Steve: You think I was putting bugs in my clothes???

Eddie: Yes??? Just like everybody else. Back me up, Henderson

Dustin: I created habitats for bugs and kept them in my room.

Steve: That’s why your cat got eaten.

so many tips for budgeting/being frugal are just twice as hard when you have a disability

"meal plan!" idk if i'll be feeling well enough to cook every day so it's hard to plan for what to eat

"cook in advance!" i can't cook meals for a whole week at once and plus i can't count on that because again idk if ill feel okay to cook at the same time every week

"use cloth napkins and towels!" those need to be washed and folded, i already have trouble doing my laundry

"delivery is expensive, always shop in person!" going to the grocery store can wipe me out for the day.

"base your food shopping on whats on sale that week!" one, allergies are a thing and some people don't have that luxury, two, that's a lot that you have to prep for and that takes energy.

"DIY!" takes time and energy. maybe i could do it by myself but would it be worth all the time i need to take to recover?

i mean none of these are bad ideas or trying to exclude people. most of it is cutting out conveniences. but for disabled people, something that's a convenience for someone can be a necessity to others

Found out my little native plant garden inspired a neighbor to start growing their own native plants 🥹

I do believe in my soul that if DeanCas got a place it's an apartment and they are the worst upstairs, adjacent, below, whatever neighbours of all time. Music blasts at all hours, you're ninety percent sure there were gunshots once, they have vaguely satanic symbols on their door, they cannot keep the story of how they met straight, a very serious man with crazy hair in just a trenchcoat asked once to borrow a cup of salt, there's a perpetual parade of random people you've never seen before insisting they're some kind of relation and asking to be buzzed up, and their loud arguments become everyone's problem, prompting someone to leave very pointed print outs on the complex's shared bulletin board with a step by step outline of how to fix their latest dispute even for repressed maniacs.

I was contacted late last year for permission to typeset my silly baby robots story for a fanbinding. I was somewhat aware of fanbinding and have an admiration of the art of bookbinding in general, so I happily gave my blessing. Hey, if someone likes my writing enough to commit an act of craftwork about it, I say full steam ahead. In my opinion it's the highest honor a work of fanfiction can receive.

Fast forward to now. @catspawbindery has gifted me this gorgeous tome.

Y'all.

Sweet shiny Primus is this thing gorgeous.

Just look at the quality and care that went into this. It's so well made and wonderful to hold.

I had (am still having, when spacetime allows) so much fun writing this series, despite/because-of its cracky premise, and seeing it manifest as a physical object is delightfully surreal. I'm going to find a prominent place to display it in the room where I do most of my writing so it can spur me on. Hopefully someday right next to it will be the first hardcover of Scoundrel.

(Don't worry, she is a very gentle pup and no damage occurred.)

Amyda, it's beautiful. Thank you so much. I can't stop grinning.
