tielan: Maria & Steve walking in sync (MCU - Maria/Steve2)

A 12 hour ban and TT is back.

This is bad. You know why it's bad - state controlled media, emotional blackmail, Dumpfwashing...

Hell, I described it last night, only this time the situation has a twist:

The rest of the world are the neighbours listening to the chaos on the other side of the wall every night, and then it went silent, and we were worried but also kind of relieved that it had stopped. And just as we thought it was going to last...they're back. And we know that it's just going to get worse.

CRIIIIIPES.

Sydney Morning Herald: To Build Trust In The News, We Need A Trustworthy Watchdog
Not sure if this is a gift link, free article, or behind a paywall, but it's an illustration of one of the key problems with the world right now.

Information is power, but if you can't trust the information to be correct, then you're not in a strong position.

I'll post some positive stuff today. I think we're going to need it
tielan: a vivid quilt in a rainbow of colours (quilting)

I went back to my "2024 goals" post here and discovered that I indeed got some of my goals achieved!

2024 goals
1. Complete rough draft of The Nullifae: Agent of Change. (And it can be very rough. But she has to have closed the portal and Dion has to have offered her a job. I know how these scenes go, I just have to write the other scenes before them.) - DONE: and it is indeed very rough
2. Finish The Gathering Clouds (MCU: Psy-Changeling AU)
3. Get the roof repaired - DONE - and the ceilings repainted.
4. Produce apricots. (I have no idea how to prompt this. Really no idea.)
5. Finish and/or make 12 quilts/major fabric works. (clothing and curtains both count) - DONE


That's 50%, right?

Finishing the Gathering Clouds is still a pipe-dream. Apricots were unsuccessful (so were mangoes), and I think getting the ceilings repainted is going to be an expensive proposition. Trying to find anyone to do anything right now is an expensive proposition.

And here's the dozen quilts finished (most of them made in previous years but only FINISHED finished just now:

images, one two many lots )

And there are two more that have come back from te quiter and now need to be bound. *sigh*
