3amtarot is doing posts on grief atm, and as always I'm finding them a valuable read. Trying out one of today's spreads below.

( One spread below.  )

( Like, this really shouldn't work? But now it's an Armand song? I can't make it not be! )

Also, a fun game some yt channels play is picking a deck for each of the characters in a show they love, and to me Mio Im's Tarot screams Armand. It's got something to do with the sparse nature of it, the limited bone/dust gray palette, obviously all the bones hehe.

+ I'm so behind on Snowflake Challenge, and don't really have time to put in the effort I'd like or see all the cool entries. Boo work. If the Make A Challenge rolls around again, I've come up with a low effort entry; the big one will have to wait until next year.

+ Last night's dreams were a wild mess, featuring: a matrilineal sex cult, a documentary about comedians working on a SNL clone that got big after the show (with commentary), a musical number about period poops to the tune of I wanna dance with somebody. Not featured: me.

I haven't had the time or energy to read or watch anything this trip, I think my brain is lodging a complaint?

+ halfamoon is a fourteen day challenge celebrating female characters in fandom, and they're looking for volunteers to sign up for a calendar day (not a theme day) and read/view/appreciate the contributions for that day.

+ (saved for myself to look over later) European alternatives for popular services.

+ Democrats have managed to get all anti-trans riders stripped from the final appropriations bills (inc HHS and Ed).

+ Anti-Aging Injection Regrows Knee Cartilage and Prevents Arthritis.
In the study, the injectable treatment not only rebuilt cartilage but also stopped arthritis from developing after knee injuries similar to ACL tears, which are common among athletes and active adults. A pill-based version of the same therapy is already being tested in clinical trials aimed at treating muscle weakness associated with aging.

+ X-Files Reboot: Ryan Coogler Shares Exciting Plot Update.
“It wouldn’t be X-Files if we didn’t do both,” Coogler said about the show’s format. “We intend on having both monsters of the week and also the overarching conspiracy.”

If this man brings us back monster of the week shenanigans? PRAISE BE.

+ Of course the actual post got swallowed before I found internet again. Weather absolute shit, Internet shit, boat very warm, zero fish, zero internet in my cabin with the new setup. I can't be fucking bothered to write it up again.

+ One of the things open in my tabs was the latest friending meme at friending_memes, and maybe time without internet was a good thing there. Came to the conclusion that actually, my circle is pretty damn great and I don't feel I get around to commenting as often as I'd like. So skipping the meme, but since I fiddled with the response a bit I'm copying it over here. ( Read more... )

I did appreciate that the meme made me dig back through the year for my happiest memories, and I'm thinking it's a good idea to try and note those days down more. They really do fade into the blur if not.

+ While I may not have the internet to grab the latest Fallout episode - *grumps again* - you can all head on over to retro_icontest to see the results of the icon battle me, naushika, and narnialover7 had.
