Stylized graphic of the Virginia state bird, the Northern cardinal, with wings upswept in the shape of the Star Wars Rebellion Star Bird symbol
Way to fly #Virginia Rebels! I made you this Rebel Bird emblem exactly for days like this. #FlockTheEmpire #riseresistrebel
I had to go through each individual video to remove that permission.
Luckily, I hadn't posted much to my current account. But STILL.
I guess if I feel the need to vlog or some such, I can just post it here.
I think I've been clinging to TikTok for too long. It's been my guilty pleasure where I can just scroll and turn off my brain, see nice things, hear good sounds, see some cool motorcycles...
But then I see how they quietly gave AI permission to remix videos.
I really enjoy all the pictures in the background too :3

NEW: Astronaut Reid Wiseman shares a video of ‘Earthset’ that was taken with his iPhone
“This is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye…” Wiseman said.
This has to be the greatest iPhone video of all time.
You don't deserve to be treated like that and I'm sorry you got on the shitty end of someone's crusade.
I think a lot of people are so angry about AI (and rightfully so) that they're willing to burn someone without a second thought for their 'cause' (not so rightfully).
Something something when everything looks like a nail... instead of doing two seconds of digging they'd rather use their hammer.
Update from the post yesterday:
I need to remind myself of the times I have shared with people and it brought us closer together. I know it's difficult because lizard brains do their thing, only wanting to protect, but my goal is to hold those pleasant moments more closely than the ones that hurt.

Collect the colors of the sky
and plant them

Welp, nothing for it. Time to make the proper offerings of cocoa, marshmallows, and a Hallmark special.
Eye on the Milky Way
This "eye" on the Milky Way is a Chilean lagoon reflecting our galaxy. The smooth band contains billions of stars, light-absorbing dust, and glowing nebulae. Jupiter and Saturn are also visible.

An educational wellness graphic by @mindfullinked on a silk white background titled "Emotional Regulation = Embracing the And." The slide features four Venn diagrams in a muted brand palette (Deep Forest Green, Mossy Sage, and Taupe) illustrating the coexistence of conflicting emotions: 1. Healed yet still triggered, 2. Resilient yet needing support, 3. Feeling better yet finding it hard, and 4. Grateful yet resentful. The bottom text explains that true regulation comes from the power of coexisting—allowing progress and pain to live in the same room. Keywords include: somatic intelligence, emotional regulation, and nervous system support.
Regulation isn’t the absence of "bad" feelings; it’s the capacity to hold them alongside the "good" ones. 🌿 #EmotionalRegulation #MentalHealthMatters #SelfCompassion
Something to tag onto next week's therapy session.
But posting all this as at least some way to halfway.. kinda.. share? I don't want it to completely beat me.
*Writes up a long post about a personal insight gained while on a walk*
*Gets to the end, has emotional flashback of Bad Things that Happened*
*Deletes it*
It's an odd feeling going from wanting to share, enjoying the freedom of it, to all the alarms coming on and having to retreat.
Look into a mirror and what do you see?
Darkness and a bookish melancholy?
Some thorns & moss around the edges?
A feral glint shining deep in your eyes?
Good. You're on the right path.
Travel is a good way to expand your mind.
It's also a good way to find weird bones in the forest and hidden portals to the faerie realm, where weird forest bones are the main currency.

Always remember to play..have fun..This is me wanting to splash around in paint puddles..fun is important…I’m playing..🎨✨

Now in my Etsy store “Naturelostandfound”. Unfortunately the paper is buckled though hence the low price but I’m sure it could be squished under glass. It’s a cool piece…I like it anyway.. ✨
Ice cracking and giving way to water. Small stones at the edge.

Perspectives...
Bunnies in a raft pull up next to a spaceship capsule, which has just splashed down and is floating in the open sea. Visible in the capsule, two bunnies wave at the ones in the boat.

Find joy and light where you can, and share it with others who might need it.
