The Technicolor Out Of Space @neonNeptunian@awoo.space

I got a new tent as a belated birthday present!
and it is the Most Me Thing possible, eeeyay. :DDD

(this isn't even at full-bore sunlight, more like 'partly cloudy'.)

Like, in case it wasn't obvious, yo, it basically me and all my friends?! Like, basically this is our aesthetic wheelhouse. We're /in/, folks.

And that just makes me gush so hard. it's so good. <3

So Janelle Monáe, pop musician, pretty damn mainstream (like Rolling Stone magazine cover mainstream) released an album called Dirty Computer today

and with it made an 'emotion picture'- a collection of music videos to go with the album

about a pan triad of queer PoC trying to resist a dystopian regime's attempts to reprogram-mindcontrol

IN CASE IT WASNT OBVIOUS ITS QUEER AS HELL AND ABSOLUTE JOY

@JulieSqveakaroo Echoing and reinforcing and reinforcing.

Hugs and solidarity, and you aren't the only one out there wanting to care for others.

Thank you, roo. You're wonderful. <3

LB: soft encouraging noises for you all. 💜

@JulieSqveakaroo It is not wrong. It is not not not not wrong and you should be paid what you are worth.

Solidarity and resonance. You deserve so much better. *hug hug hug hug*

It's a bit grey and chilly today.

But we can still find ways to make color inside, so it doesn't have to be /all/ grey, ya?

I hope that wherever you are,
and whatever may happen,
that today treats you with kindness and love. 💜

@Jacel ooooOOoooh.

I just wanted to say, to all of my friends who have found a shape that fits them better, no matter what that may be:

I see you, and I am so overjoyed to see you. You're all so wonderful, and I hope to continue to support you on your voyage.

I love you all so much. 💜

Thankingsall for stopping by! And for puns. And for shitposts.

And for being a friend. 💜

I hope today treats you kindly;

and if it does not, then let just
the passage of time
carry your pains away
like flower petals
in vernal winds.

@itsnero By the way, this is really really really pretty <3<3<3

genuinely tender and loving and, gosh. 💜

(woah dang this toot popped off)

A gentle blessing for the day:

May flowers grow in your footsteps.

Today I learned: Ursula K. LeGuin spent a chunk of her life making an album of world music for a paracosmic civilization from one of her books. (' Music And Poetry Of The Kesh', paired with the book 'Always Coming Home')

Also that she was working in her last days on seeing it being reissued, and now it's on Bandcamp? Just...to buy? And that's really beautiful in its own way.

Thanks for one more story. <3
