After chatting with @courtkossai for a bit I had to draw this. Our particular verbal/audio communication difficulties happen to meld together really well which gave me a rather funny image of us signing to each other. Also I found the idea of including the mobility aides in a way that they are sort of redundant really quite funny as I would have no way to use forearm crutches in the water nor need for them and so they would just float off uselessly.

I also have no idea what it is faeries do to be honest - I guess influencing with fish. Google says they can give blessings. It has been a pretty long time since I used any NGT and longer since learning any ASL but I tried to write it in ASL so maybe people could have some tiny hope to read it since there are something like 30x the ASL speakers as NGT and this site does have a lot of Americans.

It says, or tries to say "I bless you with fish"

not an overwatch post but here’s some animals i drew 🫶

i have a nest :3 i love my nest :3

The heated bath is nice but the pond is often a lot more fun and attracts more visitors, and I enjoy watching the livestream a lot. I always like to add a trailcam there too (here the Ceyomur CY95) to get some extra angles and larger rocks in the front for fun closeups, but as you can see that does not always work out perfectly 😆 You can watch the livestream on my Youtube channel.

(The music is a free clip called "simple, light and bright marimba and ukulele".)

I want to fly. I want to stretch my wings and glide over treetops and through mountain ranges. I want to be in the sky. I want to be able to see everything on the land. To dive and swoop, to have fun. I want to feel the wind. Yet I am cursed to stay on the ground. Limited to climbing to get up to high places. Unable to really do what I want.

"The best part of being fat is being soft and comfy to cuddle with" "The best part of being fat is knowing people like you for your personality and not your looks" Wrong. The best part of being fat is getting to swim in ice-cold water for FAR longer than my peers. My skinny friends can barely last 10 minutes in the pacific ocean without losing feeling in their fingers meanwhile i can be in there for HOURS. I was born to swim in glacial lakes and icemelt streams. Also I float.

Bro switched to eco mode

Southern resident orcas, also known as the southern resident killer whales (SRKW), are an exclusively fish-eating ecotype of orcas that live in and around the Salish Sea. They differ genetically from transient orcas as well as having different dialects and diets. © Rachel Haight - Orca Network

It isn't fair that the human body cannot perform this

A little celebration! I have been doing breath training for a bit, but have only recently started to take it more seriously now that I know what to do. When I first started holding my breath (statically out of the water) for 30 seconds was a real challenge and the furthest I could go was just under 40 seconds. Today I made it to 1 minute 20 seconds, which is twice the length of time which is really quite quick! I am also now able to breathe more or less continuously at 30 second intervals - 5 seconds in, 15 seconds hold, 10 seconds out (though I have to look at a clock to keep the timing). But I am making good progress and can breather deeper and fuller, I can feel the muscles in my back in particular stretch with each breath, and the long slow breaths are becoming more comfortable and better resisting the stinging of the carbondioxide. On next to 2 minutes - 120 seconds!

I have a blanket folded in half draped over my shoulders and arms and am wearing a long skirt. Lots of species euphoria. you may imagine me something like this:

we're just trying / i'm only trying to get home

could you make an orca moodboard? :D

Orca. Filmed in Norway. From The Norwegian Fjords: Life in the Twilights (2018).

i have spent the last two days rotting away in my room, just watching youtube and i need to force myself to leave the house tomorrow so. I‘m going on a walk tomorrow.

(Hope that announcing it „publicly“ will kinda help with motivation. In theory it should, we‘ll see)
