The Bath. An elegant woman, clad in towels and robes, stepping out of a bath. Imaginative, handmade collage using bits and pieces of paper, some watercolor, magazines, and old books that smell of smoke and coffee.

Do not question the Doolan. The Doolan knows exactly what he's doing. His master plan continues unimpeded.
Soon, the snacks will be his. SOON.

good morning netizens, I need to put out a request for #mutualaid today. A dear friend is caught in a downpour of #carproblems right now and just wants to get the vehicle back up and running so they can provide for their family. They have a #fundraiser here, so if you have any amount of money to spare, it would be greatly appreciated, and even if not, please boost for visibility
My 4yr old saw Bolivia on a map & is now obsessed with it. He wants to go there โat the end of May please we can go then because itโs AFTER your birthdayโ & learn everything about it & talks Bolivia every day. He says โI think it is the country of all my dreams!โ
Wellโฆnot actually going to fly to La Paz in three weeks, soโฆdoes anyone in/from Bolivia follow me who might want to make a little video message for him?
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
