Whooof. I can feel my work diplomacy skills getting a workout.

Needed to find the compassionate but firm way to deflect requests for JS/CSS help from my old team, because "I bailed from webdev for very good mental health reasons and by the way I'm pretty sure my boss when I worked with you was transphobic or at least kinda sexist" is, sadly, probably not a good move as the first thing I say to someone in 6 months.

Whoops, how'd I end up in this wolf pelt?

Awoo~~~~

Looking at my old art makes me cringe less than I expected. And a lot of the cringe is less "This looks terrible" than "Geez, if I'd kept at it, I'd probably be pretty dang decent now."

I guess I could still make a go of that.

Whew, okay, that was a good use of a night that started off feeling a bit cruddy. I have basically all my art and commissions entered into my picture library, all with at least roughly correct date information.

Oh hey vim has the nav keys in the same order as DDR arrows, maybe I CAN learn this.

meta, "postfurry", sexuality // 

In my head furry has always had a small contingent of people who were like "stop! stop! that's Lewd, and those cartoon foxes aren't even married!!" or "no you are Not Allowed to be half-wolf half-skunk, that's not realistic. And don't even think about mixing sexual dimorphisms"

and everybody else pretty much ignored them & is going full speed ahead with their toy wooden-block dragicorn that TFs people using mind control pheromones or whatever

I'm still feeling a bit ungrounded... Introspective... Uncanny.

This eclipse thing... I have never had an experience where I've had a harder time just coming back from it, being able to go 'okay back to daily life now'

And I've taken a LOT of psychedelics.

LB: Need some postfurry commentary on this, I think. ;)

PLANETS RATED BY SEXINESS:

Neptune (cold, aloof, alluring, nice blue)
Uranus (even nicer colour, minimal as fuck, loses points for being sideways)
Mars (badass red)
Saturn (good overall aesthetic, rings a bit TOO ostentatious though?)
Venus (cloudy, maybe looks a bit sweaty)
Earth (just too much going on there, pare it back a bit lad)
Mercury (snore)
Venus (cloudy, maybe looks a bit sweaty)
Jupiter (big red spot reminds me of a giant signature broach, nobody likes the broach, I'm sorry Susan)

LB: These have been exactly my thoughts too. o.o (@Soreth)

That happened yesterday and everyone expects me to just go about my business today like it's all normal? I close my eyes and that burning silver circle is still waiting behind my eyelids.

So, all time travelers, take note:

Be careful though, @Elanna was there and she got a little wigged out by the sun going dark and turned everybody into were-birds.

The thing that's blowing my mind about the eclipse is just... Okay. You've probably seen an eclipse portrayed in some media and how it's all super-dramatic but looks kinda fakey? Yeah, no, that's how it looks and feels. The most realistic version of all that.

It looks exactly how you'd expect... in a way you can't even imagine.

That was so beautiful, words completely fail me

Oh gods I basically cried through the whole thing. 💜💜💜☀️🌑💜💜💜

I'm already really emotional about this eclipse thing, dang.

McMinnville! Officially inside totality area now!
