green except too damn hot @green@awoo.space

Nar was so excited about the sudden abundance of crows that he ran down the hall howling. and then ate most of Pooka's breakfast. XD

lots of dreams, most of it uninteresting fragments. a particularly memorable bit, though, was finding a spider under my bed the size of a coconut crab (scale reference: https://ixquick-proxy.com/do/spg/show_picture.pl?l=english&rais=1&oiu=http%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F7hixUzz.jpg&sp=938e0dbe6c4b4d265b732a4eb78763f6) and backing away warily with the intention of moving away, and just leaving all my stuff there, nope, thanks.

later dreambits of lazy snuggling with head-Loki were a nice counterbalance...

@kara@occult.camp *sending you so many warmthoughts*

I'd taken the birdfeeders down because of the high winds earlier this week, and just put them back up this morning, and the birds were *ready for it*. while I was out there on the porch a hummingbird came up to the feeder, about two feet from me, watching me warily. the chickadees, juncos, and crows gathered while I swept the porch. as soon as I went back inside there was a FEEDING FRENZY, including a downy woodpecker. XD

I don't always say goodnight on Mastodon, but when I do, I do it with an awoo.

goodnight, Mastodon. awoo! <3

@Ulfra_Wolfe@witches.town I am spitting curses at her family and that funeral director.

@cute_weeds oh hon. *offers more hugs* we value you. you are valid. we care. <3

@Gargron YES. SO MUCH YES. I prefer pretty much everything about HPMOR to canon, though, so. but especially "HE SET A CHICKEN ON FIRE"

@adeptomega eeeeee!! :D

@indi oh wow, thank you! this is good stuff, and gives me some good ideas for what to do while meditating (which I kind of flail around with for some reason), and helps me define... what I do, um, yeah. *flails* anyway this is helpful thank you! ^___^

like seriously, reading this article I am doing the most alarming mad scientist evil laughter. I'm not even sure *why*. this includes a strong impulse to yell "FOOLS!"

We don't understand how they're doing this categorization. ... not the programmers and not anybody who looks at it... understands anymore how exactly it's operating any more than you'd know what I was thinking right now if you were shown a cross section of my brain. It's like we're not programming anymore, we're growing intelligence that we don't truly understand."

I just caught up to the end of season 5, I think, if Kevin's party is the last episode of the season. EVERYTHING IS TERRIBLE or at least changing THERE HAS TO BE A NEW TITLE SEQUENCE is season 6 out yet???

@brokenfingers yay! ^___^

there's like four owls, one hawk (I'm not sure if it's a Cooper's or red tail), more seagulls, pigeons, a few ducks... and that's it. slow time of year! still plenty to clean up, though, and lots of seasonal stuff, like repainting, deep cleaning, putting stuff in storage.

all the squirrels have been released, yay! there's one opossum and six raccoons, and that's it for small mammals. the two bobcats are doing fine, and we have to be quiet around the facility because they're trying to get the four older bear cubs to hibernate. there's a new cub, much younger, but with a very uncertain prognosis. :/ oh and a seal pup that's doing great.
