Current obsession: Learning metal riffs (that definitely never should be played on a cheap nylon-string acoustic) and playing them on my cheap nylon-string acoustic...
I literally have no idea who to tag, but I guess I'll tag some ppl I follow...
Hey there :) I was just wondering if you had any followers with microscopic polyangiitis who also feel a bit lonely out there with nobody else on tumblr that I've seen have it. Or with any related vasculitis disease? Thank you for the signal if you decide to publish this :)
I don’t know of anyone off the top of my head, but hopefully people will see this and you can get some patient networking going!
Thanks! I definitely need it... Was just about to respond when I somehow kicked my coffee cup.. I'm- this is a mess, there's coffee all over the table... Nonetheless, my lack of basic coordination aside, thank you :) 💚
Dream Journal 2019-11-22: Now With Smell-O-Vision!
First off: physiology fun fact time! Humans generally only perceive smell while awake or during the earliest part of the transition to sleep. After that point, your brain is effectively dead to olfactory stimuli. Your nose won’t wake you up in the event of a fire, and in my personal experience, smell is the least prevalent senses in dreams.
My dear friend @unichrome has called me on the phone for a chat. For once, I’m not using a cell phone to conduct this call. I’m using an old 1970s rotary phone in an avocado green plastic shell, and it’s got a really long cord so I can walk as far as one room away from the phone’s cradle. THE WONDERS OF TECHNOLOGY!
On the other end of the line, I hear my friend rummaging around in her kitchen. And then I smell something that smells like almonds. But I don’t have anything that smells like that in my immediate vicinity.
The smell is wafting out of the phone!
“Did you just open something that smells like almonds?” I ask, knowing full well what the answer is. Yes, she did just open a bottle of almond extract to put in a pie she was making.
“Fun fact!” I holler into the phone’s receiver. “Almonds smell that way because of cyanide and too much cyanide can kill you!”
My friend is silent for a moment. “Okay... Thanks, I guess,” she says.
I don’t think that’s how smells work, brain, but okay. But it was sort of cool to be able to be able to smell something far away through the wonders of old technology.

My #unichrome deep sea nails had to be shared again, bc just look at that sunshine play 🤩😎🤩 #unichrome powder from @oceannailsupply is one of my favorite add ons. Due to the color shifting, It’s like having two or three manicures in one! (Light depending!) . . You can also see the crushed shell at the tips a little in this photo! . . . . . #nailart #junipernails #kellyohsteinsharkweek #seattlesalon #seattlenailart #sharkweek #shaqweek #sharkweekeveryweek #sharkweekeveryweek #sharknails #sharks #chromenails #sharkweeknailart #sharks #sharklove (at Juniper - A Natural Nail Bar)
Sure, the Aurora Unicorn Chrome Powder Coat looks fine and would work best with any kind of gel polish you had applied prior. So let's do some creativity!👍😍
Resin! Because forests. And marsh Labrador tea/skvattram.
🌳 Tree: What is one thing in your future you are looking forward towards?
I just got my first apartment so I'm looking forward to moving out, even if I'm nervous too. It's pretty neat, in an old military building and it's close to nature which makes me happy! Because after living in a rural area my whole life and having been pretty isolated here, I think if I had to live in the middle of town that would be not so great.
I'm really only moving out because going back and forth between here and uni in Luleå would be exhausting which I know since my brother has been doing so for the past few years. It's the shitty bus hours and the bus stop is 1.5 km away. Not impossible exactly, but it's just very inconvenient and I'd rather not. Anyways I'm excited about having a more independent life soon!
