Like you can read on this blog back to posts I still really treasure before I tried trimming a tree at all (my first year’s cuts here at Karafuto were atrocious!), that blows my mind to think of
I feel so exceptionally and specifically blessed by the universe these days I have to make a point to recall the 2010s and how grim everything looked. “This too shall pass” and all.
(“Everyone you hate has teamed up to push a meshed combo” had not yet progressed to “everyone you hate has teamed up to drop masks and bite off more than they can chew”)
So this is the tree behind the bathroom, those two cut trunks will be the central supports for a table and bench (there’ll be a rear deck as ground level, and they’re both a bit high so I can cut down to ideal) and I’m gonna let shoots off them grow and thicken a few years as auxiliary supports (that’s two years’ growth off the upper one and one off the lower, then I cut them down a bit so new shoots will have to stay wide of the upper ones)
Alright, went to clean up the lower backyard, do more grass weeding in the side yard, then went to finish smashing Blueberry Hill but I’m closer to the energy limits of my creatine dose and it was another tease, only halfway. Then I blocked some parking spaces for the crew coming tomorrow (at 8 AM!) to get up around power lines and trim the last untouched tree on the property.
The belly used to be massed into four molar-like “cusps”, several months ago the top two merged into a “top roll of fat”; the bottom two remained distinct if only because the navel pulls down the valley between, but I think that’s only got a week or so to go.
There’s something intensely American with people writing callout posts about Steven Universe because a character wore short-shorts and also they think it’d bad Steven is shown as not wanting to kill people
POV you’re the king and i just made an inappropriate joke about your virility in front of the whole royal court and you want to punish me but you can’t react in anger lest the court think my joke is true
Alright, just strung my bedding up to dry. That definitely needs to be a monthly thing, it feels fine at 1 month but at 1 week more it starts to get – well, silk doesn’t even become unpleasant then, just not actively pleasant.
Replaced the rope I’d been using with an actual clothesline. Boy you really need to tension that narrow gauge, but the clothespins fit a lot better.
Hm, the last time I was this thin I didn’t have muscles, instead the stomach was kind of hanging set into the abdomen where the abdominal muscles are now, but today it’s like it’s mounted on top
Got up a bit early so I had my coffee before the creatine today (iron at 9), it’s interesting, that combination almost cancels out and I feel mentally normal but really easy to get giggling
i hate when somebody posts some shit on here like “it’s gay as fuck for a man to eat breakfast” because then im like well shit now i gotta start eating breakfast or i won’t be gay anymore

Seem to have finally reshaped the rosebushes out front so I can trim them down for winter and then yearly have them regrow into a small but thick bush, not two or three 5-foot canes.
