NinthWave

The painting in the header is The Ninth Wave by Ivan Aivazovsky.

It also refers to a seven track concept piece by Kate Bush about a woman who has been washed over the side of a ship and is now alone in the water, with only a life jacket and a tiny light to preserve her hope that she will be rescued.

I feel like a new blessing for our time could be: "May your parents always be able to care for themselves." My sister and I are at over 11 years of taking care of our father following our mother's death.

I don't want to talk about it, but it's been a difficult day. I just wanted to say that somewhere.

Hub and I finished watching Severance yesterday. I like it, but I'm not obsessed with it like some are.

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY

Today what I need you to do is: have yourself a little treat

While you're thinking you probably shouldn't have a cookie, wear the nice perfume on an ordinary day, take a walk in the sun instead of doing the dishes, enjoy a long shower, have a nap, or buy new socks, you're going to stop and think "no, I should have this, I deserve a little treat"

And that will be your birthday gift to me 🥳

⚠️ Scam alert: if anyone ever asks you to "temporarily change" the email address on your Mastodon account, DO NOT DO THIS.

There is currently a scammer posing as a server admin telling people to temporarily change their Mastodon account's email to an address supplied by the scammer. This is a scam, don't do it.

Real admins will NEVER ask you to do this.

You can see examples of this scam in the thread at ohai.social/@redsad/1157080301

(Thanks @markwyner for the warning about this! 🙏 )

“Have you brought the list?”
“I have, O Great One.”
“Has it been checked twice?”
“Of course, sir”
“Excellent.”
“Do you require anything further?”
“Bring me an elf, I’m famished.”

I can take or leave Legos, but I think this Charlie and the Chocolate Factory take is amazing:
