Ok.
I'm basically just using my awoo.space account now, I'm @firstaide
Just feel more comfortable there tbh? :-0
Good morning! Today is the first day I noticed the clangour of geese completely replaced by the horny chorus of spring.
I started the day with pyjama calligraphy practice–I'm both rusty & didn't get very good to begin with! There's something very sensually satisfying in searching for the exact pressure, the correct soft chiselling sound, just the right sudden shocking bleed of black that makes just one stroke 'just right.'
May we find some new joy today & let it buoy up all we do. Off I go!

Folks, just wanna say if anything I've retooted or said really bothers you, let me know, I don't always have the best reading comprehension so y'know I've said some things I've later realised are the opposite of what I've meant XP
Some rats. Not quite as successful as the raccoons but...pencil on paper. I can't remember how to decide how and what final pieces to make? How do have aims and goals ¿ I know I'm aposed to just...draw though. As well.
wait, are there other #actuallyautistic folks here? can we turn this into a thing?
(other autistic folks to chat to and share experiences with would be great tbh? :-0)
Here's a photo of the old railway viaduct in Donegal, Ireland. It's been disused since the 1950s and was the scene of a terrible accident in the 1920s, where one of the carriages blew off the tracks.
Like, let me know if there's anything you need me to CW tag since folks are talking about it :-0
Hey folks, @pupper and I are queer, disabled, really cute and about six weeks away from homelessness. Our current income barely covers basic living expenses and we're struggling to get the money together to move. Please take a look at our fundraiser if you can. Shares are really appreciated. Thank you. https://www.youcaring.com/caelynellisandlorenadamson-767966

LB: the whole point is NOT that people literally want to be unaware of what's going on in the world / politics.
but when you are feeling depressed, overwhelmed, and out of control because you're so afraid and sad about the world, it's nice to have a place you can go to chill out and take your mind off it, that doesn't throw all those things in your face every 5 seconds. Hence the content warning insistence.
IT'S EASY FOR YOU (one click), and can be invaluable to somebody else's mental health
Shwmae, ffrindiau! I recorded a thing for a new friend, based on an older thing I'd recorded trying to help friends with Welsh, but added to it a little. So... Some Welsh, pronounced, the *full* National Anthem (Which you probably won't have heard), and a brief note on the An- prefix, and its importance to our main myth cycle's first branch.

"Why should political posts be tagged?"
Some people simply wish to be mentally prepared for news. As well, some people may wish to go to Mastodon so they can escape from the news. Honestly, it doesn't matter why, just be respectful to other people's wishes since tagging political posts is quite easy.
Geology is so great and I love it tbh?
Like you can look at a road cutting rock wall and be like-
'There was a desert here, the T-joins mean the sand dunes were forming in this direction, the conglomerate above it indicates a flood- dinosaurs were also around when the desert was here'
That's just awesome tbh
The killing fields of the Miocene (~12 mya) ashfall fossil beds in Nebraska, full of Teleoceras (a hippo-like rhino), camelids, five genera of horses, even some birds! Amazing assemblage, if a little sad - animals asphyxiated from eruption of an idaho volcano, then buried in days and months afterwards by ash-rich sediment https://mastodon.social/media/Hb3euUns05p29KcuYlo https://mastodon.social/media/luUAXJDFNnyTmVT_4Ug https://mastodon.social/media/gJewGDRds-2lWcXbKFo
people are posting about language again. consider these idle thoughts:
1) mandating english is rooted in a history of imperialism and continuing that just because you don't understand a thing is lowkey pretty gross
2) maybe not everything on this site is for you. we can be kinder to each other than that
3) many of the people speaking french are silenced in their real lives as marginalized people in a stifling society. let people be free to talk however (excluding harmful impact/bigotry, obv)
Dyslexia really ruins my ability to communicate tbh.
that's the thing with language, you like do one word wrong and dont have the best ability to read thru stuff and things can get bad tbh?
like Ive said stuff I dont agree with because I cant proof read to check that I'm not saying something different from what I mean because I did a word wrong :-I
