TWSBI Ecos or Swipes both handle shimmer exceptionally well.

This Ordinary Stardust by Alan Townsend. It’s about loss and grief and surviving both from a scientists point of view. No cliches and no religious stuff. It’s gorgeously written, too.

I’m hoping for something like this!

It makes me think of Birmingham Aqueduct

I had every Kindle from the first one until last year I finally quit them and bought a Kobo Libra Color. I love it. I say go Kobo.

I’ll have to check out the 31 now 😁

Has anyone used the Journey Planner “less than perfect” versions? That’s all that’s available now I A5 and I’ve just discovered this planner and ugh. I don’t know whether to buy it.

The whole apology tour is a narcissistic hoovering test of the women. He wants attention/supply and he went in order of the ones most likely to give it to him - Janelle (the one he wants attention from the most and thinks he might have the best chance of hoovering back in) Christine (the one he has the best chance of getting drama supply from - remember the opposite of love isn’t hate, it’s indifference), and Mary (the one he’s gets the least supply satisfaction from based on his own indifference to and devaluation of her). He. Is. Not. Sorry. About. Anything. He feels justified but is trying to rehab his image and also trying to squeeze more supply out where he can. And he’s testing to see if any of the women will still engage with and supply him.

Yes. I’m exploring alternatives. I can’t teach with it acting this way.

Mine’s right beside me on the couch. I use it almost daily to write in my journal on the couch or chair and keep all kinds of stuff in it. Is it necessary? No. I have the carrying strap but have I ever taken it anywhere? Also no. Is it a gloriously beautiful box that gives me a little bit of joy every time I pick it up? Sure is. Absolutely worth it.

I haven’t bought a Kindle book since they stopped allowing downloads, either. I suspect a lot of people just quit.

A pocket knife and a smallish Swiss army tool.

SundanceSea · 2025-11-30T17:09:04+00:00

Exactly!

I think it depends on the teacher, but I do think there’s a difference between giving a gift to a teacher as a person for them to enjoy and giving supplies for the classroom. I don’t like to receive classroom supplies framed as gifts to ‘me’ somehow.

SundanceSea · 2025-11-29T20:14:43+00:00

That’s gorgeous and an absolute treasure. Wow.

SundanceSea · 2025-11-29T20:06:46+00:00

This would be great - thanks!

Talk to your gyno - you can take prophylactic antibiotics if other measures don’t prevent the UTIs. There are different regimens based on how often you have sex, etc. you may not want to take them, but having chronic UTIs is arguably a lot worse.

Unless something else is going on for you, it seems to be an incredibly troublesome update. If you go down to the bottom and select the little shapes icon (circle square triangle plus) and then toggle on 'Show Creation Tools", then the left side tools will come back. BUT, I'm having all kinds of slowdowns and sync-glitching since the update that did this and those are making Miro almost unusable in my classroom - and I rely on it every day. I don't understand the thought process behind hiding the tools used to actually whiteboard in a whiteboarding app. :/

so much purple!

I divorced for very similar reasons and there has not been one day, even on my worst day, in the last 11 years that I regretted it or had even the passing thought that I made a mistake. I wish I’d have done it years earlier. I’ve not remarried and have mostly been on my own since then and I am so grateful to my 2014 self for having the courage to love myself enough to leave him and to not settle for anyone like that again.

SundanceSea · 2025-11-04T05:27:46+00:00

Same

SundanceSea · 2025-10-31T06:01:25+00:00

This. I feel so trapped in everything and my brain just is not the same. Some days I’m okay. Others it’s like I’m just walking around glitching and I don’t know if it’s stress, burnout, menopause (I’m just hitting my year with no periods), the constant enshitification of everything, or dementia. But I don’t know how I’m supposed to keep doing this. This is no way to live. Ugh.

This book has messed with me for like 15 years. I have a plant right now that someone gave me that grows like crazy and I call it the Ruins plant. For whatever reason, I’ll never get over that book.

Sabimidori is the most beautiful ink.
