Hey, good news!
Nov. 5th, 2025 07:23 amAnd Cuomo was a gracious loser, congratulating Mamdani and telling people off who were booing! I had forgotten what that looked like.
And then youtube suggested this, and it's wonderful:

Things...
Nov. 1st, 2025 10:46 amTime just seems to vanish.
Last week was my birthday and I was totally going to make a birthday post, and then just... didn't.
So, belated thank you's to everyone who sent me birthday wishes. <3
And I got fanart from Lee (for my Seeker 'verse), which is very shiny. Not used to fanart. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Although speaking of fanart, then Promethia and I also had a stunning piece of fanart created for The Song of Rowland, so truly my cup currently overfloweth. (Technically the art work is spoilery, although not hugely.)
And fic-wise, then I posted Chapter 5 of Crystal Gets A Boyfriend on my birthday, and then Chapter 6 the week after! (This will probably never happen again. There is usually a month between any updates.)
But enough about me... Have a few links:
No more Disney!Who. 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
UK petition: Scrap the Bathroom Ban
And from the Good Law Project, please sign this open letter: Women in support of the trans+ community.
I feel that there were so many more things I was going to mention, but time has stolen them...

Database maintenance
Oct. 25th, 2025 08:42 amGood morning, afternoon, and evening!
We're doing some database and other light server maintenance this weekend (upgrading the version of MySQL we use in particular, but also probably doing some CDN work.)
I expect all of this to be pretty invisible except for some small "couple of minute" blips as we switch between machines, but there's a chance you will notice something untoward. I'll keep an eye on comments as per usual.
Ta for now!
Terrifying Tipsy Tales: My Spooky Season series
Oct. 24th, 2025 04:01 pmI have made a series on You Tube called "Terrified Tipsy Tales". It's like Drunk History, but I am tipsy and talk about spooky things.
I discuss why I became interested in the paranormal in the 1st episode
I talk about major visions coming true in the second episode .
*Disclaimer: I messed up the EF rating of the tornado that hit La Plata, Maryland in 2002. it was an EF4 or F4. There was an EF5 or F5 tornado that hit La Plata, but that was in 1925.
I talk about a shadow figure in my last house in the third episode
I talk about my personal experience of seeing a full bodied apparition when I was 9 on patrol duty.

New You Tube Vid (part 1)
Oct. 24th, 2025 03:58 pmI am soooo behind with posting...both new vids and updates. I have gone back SFI (Swedish for Immigrants) at the end of September. So, that is part of the reason why I haven't been around.
I have made seven vids since I last posted the Kinder Country vid. I will divide this in two. The last four will be from my Spooktober series called "Terrifying Tipsy Tales" where I talk about scary stuff while tipsy. It is like Drunk History almost.
None of the vids are sponsored
I make my own pumpkin spice in honor of the arrival of Autumn/Fall (Höst in Swedish), especially since they don't have pumpkin spice in Sweden ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ This year is round three of making my own pumpkin spice blend.
I try and review Peanut Butter Kit Kat. Do I like it? Watch and see!
