i made a pipe cleaner version of this guy

@richoblation it me

how can i make my nails more scratch-ready

@graveunfurling what do you use?

@appleMechanic oil your cuticles as often as possible. file down roughness with a gentle file

@graveunfurling huh oiling your cuticles helps with the nails? hmmm

@MalmSanta oh gosh and they very much so are lovely. like. when it’s sunny and a micro rainbow forms from the light among the droplets… ahhh

@appleMechanic a spiderless outdoor shower sounds very nice tho

i’ve used 3 outdoor showers in my life and they all had a lot of spiders. i think that soured my opinion of them but in theory, an outdoor shower seems like it’d be really cool

@MalmSanta okay at least a half of an infoor shower just to keep up appearances

@appleMechanic no indoor shower?? what if the spiders find this one too?

@arcanejuice will you today! this sounds like what i would like plus 2 naps

I want to go to the book store, the plant store, and possibly even the grocery store.

@manamajere peak poasting hours can v often b peak life-ing hours 🧚🏼‍♀️

I'm having such a good time in life right now. I'm always missing peak posting hours, though. Ah, well. 🌺

@chopstickfury01 what will you do during your hour of wait

I get to be paid for an hour of work consisting of standing here waiting for aluminum sulfate to get delivered. This is a good day.

@BecomingCritter i am very this at this moment 😔

mfw i left things for tomorrow yesterday

@MaryZoso could i be invited

me and some unknown number of other whos

@aaronschachacht they are convening are they planning something

Nice picture of ducks around a submerged fire Pit

@quiprotator wait what is the symbolism

Curious symbolism.

@FractalAuth do you feel there is something blocking you, maybe in a 'feeling small' way along with it, right now? i have the wildly undesirable bathroom dreams as well. mine are usually also huge multi-stall bathrooms where none can be used

Update on the cleanliness of my dream bathroom: No standing water anymore. Toilet drain is still blocked but obviously with sewage and hair hanks and not stuffed animals or food bags (???). This is good progress

@DAVIDMORRI91706 it's kind of.. a bit wild, isn't it

@appleMechanic Excellent observation.

gently palpate around behind your ears… feeling the shape of your skull there it’s quite particular, feels just like the science diagrams look reminding myself i’m a being that happens to be human hello. good morning.

@inkolore_ do you have a favorite. what's its name

@appleMechanic My parents have 5 of them, I don't think they have any names though, 3 of them are hard to distinguish because they have a very similar shade of color sooo

Making my goldfish slightly more hungry than they're used to so they become grateful for the food when it arrives. I feel like a mini-version of a petty God trying to instill some tough love lol.

@ngray251 gm ngray ☀️

@appleMechanic GM

@meadandjuniper reasonable

@appleMechanic I thought you were an alien

@Shmojii i have made this vow to myself after a long, long time of doing just that…

Super grateful for this arc bc now i know i will never do this again. i plan to never just barely survive like this again. it's insanely brutal. I'll probably still switch around jobs when necessary, but the weight of barely surviving is rough at long timescales
