It's challenge time!

Comment with Just One Thing you've accomplished in the last 24 hours or so. It doesn't have to be a hard thing, or even a thing that you think is particularly awesome. Just a thing that you did.

Feel free to share more than one thing if you're feeling particularly accomplished! Extra credit: find someone in the comments and give them props for what they achieved!

Nothing is too big, too small, too strange or too cryptic. And in case you'd rather do this in private, anonymous comments are screened. I will only unscreen if you ask me to.

Go!

Living near the ocean might actually help you live longer, new study finds

The researchers analyzed population data, including life expectancy, of more than 66,000 census tracts throughout the United States, comparing numbers baked on proximity to waterways.

They found that living within miles of the ocean breeze may be linked to a longer life, but that the same benefits don’t apply for living in a riverside city (Sorry, Chicago).

A little early tonight, but I don't think I'll get any complaints 😉


Do you have a rec for this week? Just reply to this post with something queer or queer-adjacent (such as, soap made by a queer person that isn't necessarily queer themed) that you'd, well, recommend. Self-recs are welcome, as are recs for fandom-related content!

Or have you tried something that's been recced here? Do you have your own report to share about it? I'd love to hear about it!

[End of March 179-]


:: Part of the “Lost Son” story arc in the Frankenstein’s Family universe. ::




Three hours later, just as the horses were beginning to flag, the road opened out into a narrow, high valley, the sides so steep that sheets of stone peeked among the scrub clinging to small ledges. The houses canted at odd angles to the road, and small truck gardens formed divisions between one family’s yard and another. Small coops and pens offered room for half a dozen hens, and a few families had given over the space leading to their front door entirely for flowers. Some were budding, and a few were already blooming.

Trokhym scanned ahead, then pointed to a one-story building only slightly larger than some of the best houses that they had passed. Unlike most, the roof was slate, and pitched to cover a wide, irregular footprint.

Not sure what they're actually called but the center in the compass pendant and the oval one have what seems like a multicolored foil interior that looks orange, green or both depending on the light. You can see the orange a bit above and mostly green below. Read more... )

I wish I'd had our car in this photo as a reference point for how large those trees were, At least in the next photo you can see a park building in the bottom left which gives you some idea. It was very impressive to be driving through these roads of giants.

[personal profile] badly_knitted posting in [community profile] get_knitted

Hello to all members, passers-by, curious onlookers, and shy lurkers, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not.

Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating?

There may also occasionally be questions, but again you don't have to answer them, they're just a way of getting to know each other a bit better.


This Week's Question: Share your favourite crafting tip, if you have one.


If anyone has any questions of their own about the community, or suggestions for tags, questions to be asked on the check-in posts, or if anyone is interested in playing check-in host for a week here on the community, which would entail putting up the daily check-in posts and responding to comments, go to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment.

I now declare this Check-In OPEN!

Today is partly sunny and mild.

I fed the birds. I've seen a few sparrows and house finches.

I put out water for the birds.

EDIT 8/28/25 -- I planted 2 yellow Harvest of Memories and 2 red War Chief irises under the maple tree at the edge of the house yard.

EDIT 8/28/25 -- I watered the irises.

EDIT 8/28/25 -- I did some work around the patio.

As it is now dark, I am done for the night.
