I am standing outside, in Seattle, in the pitch dark, and I’m sweating from the heat and humidity. It isn’t even June yet!

Someone’s gonna pay for this

Neat find in the parking lot today. Looks like a Porsche 356, ‘57 maybe?

On the other hand, I look damn cute in apocalypse chic

(Just ignore the shoddy seam work and messy hair, yeah?)

Finally finished sewing my mask. I chose microfiber for the outer layer because it’s nonwoven and hence less porous, and t shirt fabric for the inner liner because I could be sure it was 100% cotton.

Boy let me tell you, those are fucking *awful* fabrics to work with. They’re both so stretchy and since the microfiber doesn’t have weave to separate it just tears constantly instead.

Learn from my mistakes kids

Quick poll: anyone not on Mac or Windows (which I imagine is a fair number of people here) what OS so you use? I.e if you’re on Linux or a Linux-like system what distro are you running, etc.

Me and Insomnia: name a more iconic duo

So, if anyone wants a copy of The Oxford Solid State Basics (or any other textbook for that matter, I probably have access to it) let me know

One of my textbooks has Adobe DRM (the kind where you can only download it with Digital Editions) and I don’t have any reason I need to try and break the DRM but I’m still tempted to do it out of pure spite

The only good thing about the warmer weather is the cool but not cold evening walks

Slow Burn by Bowie is another close contender

Also, I know the first line to that song is “check out the skylark” but I still hear it as “Chekhov’s skylark”, which makes me giggle

“If an author goes to the effort to mention the presence of the skylark, you know that it will likely murder someone later in the story”

Soaring early 00s guitar riffs are a quick way to my heart. The intro to Rialto by Laura Veirs makes me swoon every time
