silver_chipmunkAnd finally our work in mashfanficchick's mother's house is completed!
I got up at 11:00, had coffee, showered and dressed.mashfanficchick's friend Liz G came at 12:00 and we met her at the house, and took two trips to the storage unit, bringing the last boxes over.
Then we had lunch at a Chinese restaurant, which was delicious.
Finally, Liz G drove a few things from the house tomashfanficchick's apartment, and the very last thing of all, mashfanficchick and I walked a folding table that wouldn't fit in the car from the house to the apartment. And that was that.
I stayed awhile longer, to hang and relax, and then I Ubered home.
I got home a little after 6:00 and fed the pets, and puttered on the computer til 7:00 when I Skyped the FWiB.
We talked til 8:00 when I had my Al-anon meeting. That was very small but good. M wasn't there. I hope she's OK.
Then I had a little to eat, and texted with the Kid about funeral arrangements. A depressing subject but now that Oldest Brother has entered hospice, pretty necessary. It looks as though we'll do a direct cremation with a service at the crematorium, followed by a two hour memorial at the funeral home. I hope that cousin Cliff will be able to do the service.
Went to the bedroom and played solitaire, then came out and fed the pets again. Time for bed pretty soon.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
2. The house is done.
3. Good lunch.
4. The Kid.
5. Cousin Cliff.
6. My copy of One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish came.

Rejected video for Earth Day post
Apr. 22nd, 2025 10:20 pmneonvincentI wanted to be spooky, so I posted Storied asks 'Why Does A Ghost Whale Terrorize The Japanese Coast?' An Earth Month ghost story, then I wanted to laugh, so I posted 'The Daily Show' Celebrates Earth Day by Tackling Climate Change.
Fandom Bits and Pieces...among other things
Apr. 22nd, 2025 08:20 pmshadowkat1. Everything We Learned at the Star Wars Celebration 2025
Takeaways?
I really want to see Andor S2.
( excerpt )
Also, apparently the new Star Wars movie starring Ryan Gosling, and directed by Shawn Levy, entitled Star Wars: Star Fighter - takes place post Rise of Skywalker, and with all new characters. (Smart move. The better films pull away from the Skywalker story arcs.)
Also, I may try Ashoska again.
2. Not a fandom bit - but R.I.P Pope Francis. I'm saddened by this news.
Also he accomplished a lot in short period of time - shifting the course of the Catholic Church, promoting kindness and humility. (I also hope he talked some sense into devout Catholic and wannabee Fascist, Vance, who saw Francis before he died.)
3. Buffy Redux
So, I've been rewatching Buffy episodes intermittently. Picked up on a few things that I hadn't previously picked up on? ( Read more... )
4. Daredevil Born Again
I liked the season finale, and for the most part the series. It's similar yet different than Netflix's Daredevil, which had defter writing. However both are fairly uneven.
Fisk is clearly Marvel's commentary on the Fascist asshole in the White House or the Hitler Wannabee. Fisk even kind of looks like him, without hair. And that makes watching this - an odd experience.
The message at the end is Daredevil can't take on Fisk alone, which sets up S2 to be more of a group effort. People are speculating already on who will be joining the cast. Already slotted are Karen and Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) aka The Punisher. Also Lily Taylor, and Mathew Lillard in a recurring role.

Good News from Earth Day...among other things..

Ooooh, a Shiny Thing

I'll actually be pretty sad when tumblr dies
Apr. 22nd, 2025 07:17 pmmilo_rI know we're all joking about the curse finally lifting but it's the only "modern" social media site I get genuine enjoyment out of. And for all that I prasie dreamwidth and mastodon to every fandom person I meet, there's a kind of visual fandom experience that only tumlblr is- I can't even say "optimized for," as tumblr is not optimized for anything. Mostly gif gazing. TikTok is for videos and Instagram is for carousels. Fanartists will migrate to even more inhospitable lands but I have survived that before. But where will I go to have narrative parallels highlighted via gifset juxtaposition? Where will I be graced with the sight of my blorbo covered in blood like I am graced by a freshly bloomed flower on my morning walk? Are you telling me I'll have to rewatch my shows??? Unthinkable.
(Not that I think tumblr doesn't have the addictive and enshittified social media features. I've looked up by an hour-long tumblr session with the same kind of malaise tiktok scrolling gives me, but overall the good has always outweighed the bad.)

Unexpectedly staying another night
Apr. 22nd, 2025 01:03 amsilver_chipmunkGot up latish, got phone calls from the hospice people, Oldest Brother officially started hospice today and I had some decisions to make. I hope I chose well.
Showered and dressed, and we went out to run errands. Started by lunch at an Indian restaurant, got the lamb curry lunch special and a mango lassi.
Then we went to Trader Joes and did major shopping. Then we took the bus to Stop and Shop and did more major shopping.
mashfanficchick asked me to stay another night so we can start early tomorrow, and get the Very Last Boxes out of the house and to the storage unit with the driving help of zer friend Liz G. And I agreed, so I'm staying tonight.
Got back to zer place from Stop and Shop, stopping at Starbucks on the way, and heard from RK that he was available to help tonight getting stuff from the house that isn't going into the storage unit. We took his car over, and got the stuff back here. One big box broke open on it's way in, but RK picked it up.
Then we went out to California Pizza Kitchen and got take out. I got the Wild Mushroom pizza. WE went to RK's place, and after we ate we played a game of Dominion. RK won, I lost rather badly, but I am beginning to understand how the game works.
Then he drove us back here, and soon it will be bed time.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB, even though we didn't get to Skype.
2. Oldest Brother in hospice care.
3. Dried apple slices.
4. The Kid has a job interview.
5. RK.
6. Friends.

2025 week 16
Apr. 21st, 2025 04:30 pmlarissawriting has been going well. the fact that i've been able to write for almost three weeks straight makes me feel a bit better about my overall goals for the year.
that said, i've still not been playing much else than ff14... i've gotten a lot done there and had fun, but i really gotta pick up another game as well. still playing balatro, but i've tapered off somewhat and am hoping to find something else to fill my time. hoping to find something for that this week.
A comment about a story I tell my students
Apr. 21st, 2025 09:59 amneonvincentI'm sharing another person's comment on Why Does A Ghost Whale Terrorize The Japanese Coast?
Sometimes creating a legend is the best way to get people to show respect. In the 1970s Volcano National Park in Hawaii had a problem with people taking volcanic rocks home as souvenirs. It was at this point a park ranger created the legend that anybody who takes a rock from the island would be cursed by the god Pele. Every year, the park still gets rocks mailed back.
I tell this story every semester in geology, although I read on Snopes that it was a tour bus driver who came up with it. Just the same, I first heard this story when I was a Park Ranger, and I know the rangers tell it, even if they didn't originate it.

Reflections on a Revolution [Ω, hist, pols, curr ev, MA]
Apr. 21st, 2025 05:46 amsidereaThere's been a lot of really great public addresses of various kinds on the occasion of the 250th anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord. I thought I'd share a few.
1.
Here's one that is quite worth your time. Historian Heather Cox Richardson gave a talk on the 18th of April in the Old North Church – the very building where the two lanterns of legend were hung. It's an absolutely fantastic account of the events leading up to April 19, 1775 – a marvel of concision, coherence, and clarity – that I think helps really see them anew.
You can read it at her blog if you prefer, but I strongly recommend listening to her tell you this story in her voice, standing on the site.

UK people: disability benefit cuts
Apr. 21st, 2025 09:48 amrydra_wongRebellion is growing among Labour MPs, so if you have a Labour MP, now is a VERY good and important time to write to them to protest the proposed PIP and other cuts:

(If you have a non-Labour MP, hassle them too and see if they can be persuaded to do something vaguely useful.)

Happy Easter
Apr. 20th, 2025 11:47 pmsilver_chipmunkAnd the last day of Passover too.
Slept late and got up around 12:00. Had breakfast and coffee, showered, washed my hair, dressed, and left to see Oldest Brother.
Stayed for about an hour. He was pretty good, about the same.
Then I came over tomashfanficchick's place. We did some chores, then ordered dinner and watched Will Trent. Dinner was pernil and beans and rice.
We watched Will Trent for several hours, at 8:30 I called Middle Brother. He was out at Belmont Lake State Park yestrday and had a good time.
We went back to watching Will Trent, and have now finally caught up to the current episodes. We'll watch Tuesday's episode Thursday.
I Skyped the FWiB from my phone after Will Trent.
I'm spending the night here again.
I texted John and The Kid, no answers from either yet. Laurie texted me to wish me Happy Easter.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
2. Good TV.
3. Middle Brother well.
4. Oldest Brother holding his own.
5. Good dinner.
6. Family.

gathering successfully
Apr. 20th, 2025 11:03 pmjazzfishIn the event I made it through customs easily. My customs agent was a dead ringer for grumpy John Cena. He asked for my citizenship (US) and passport. and then glared at the passport and his comupter screen for about thirty seconds. I had enough time to start getting nervous and also to notice that his biceps were the size of my head before he handed my passport back without a word. I'll count that a win.
I'm in Niagara, at the Gathering, saying hi to folks and playing a bunch of games. There's sufficient variety and sufficiently pleasant social that even when I get stuck in a 2.5-hour game that is emphatically Not For Me it's still a decent time. And it's good to see people I know and who know me, and to feel, well. At home, maybe.
They've been issuing special black badges for folks who've been to at least twenty of these since before I started coming (which was I think number 24 or 25). Last year or this they started giving 'grey' badges to people who've been to at least ten, and I was a little startled to realise that yep, that's me. I'm pretty bad at recognising when I've become A Regular at a thing. In my head I'm stuck as The New Guy, there's plenty of folks who've been around longer than I have.
It's Sunday night. Four and a half more days of gaming and Gathering, and then Steph gets here for two and a half days or so, and then homeward. I do miss my kitten. I don't miss the rest of home, not yet, but I can see that from here. For now, things are good. I appreciate that.

More April Memage - or catching up on April Memage
Apr. 20th, 2025 06:03 pmshadowkatApril Memage - Days 17 -19
17. It’s International Bat Appreciation Day – are there bats where you live? Have you ever seen one flying?
Not in NYC or I've not seen any. Probably because it is a city and they tend to stick to the country?
Yes, I saw quite a few as a kid in West Chester, PA, when we living in the rural countryside. Lots of fruit bats.
( the rest )
Another flower from yesterday's walk (this is not part of the meme, although you can post one if you so desire):
********
A Meditative Easter Holiday and Earth Day Weekend..
I took a walk, brief, because my knees were bothering me - most likely a combination of arthritis and a side-effect of medication that I'm discontinuing. I wandered in and out of Lofty Pigeons Book Store hunting Maya Angelo's I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, but alas couldn't find it.
I may have to look in Barnes and Noble or somewhere in the City?
Prior to that, I watched the Brooklyn Unitarian Church's service on FB, where they discussed letting go of things, burning them away on flashpaper. And now, I'm listening to the Manhattan Unitarian Church's service on Youtube which is also about letting go and moving with the land, not against it, and adapting, and rebirth.
Easter and Earth Day are both today, by the way.
I also rented and watched the 1973 film adaptation of the Stephen Schwartz musical Godspell
and is also known as the lyricist and composer behind Pippin and Wicked.
And you've most likely heard the songs from Godspell out of context: Day by Day, Prepare Ye the Way of the Lord, We Can Build a Beautiful City, and By Your Side, also Turn Back Oh Man, and Willows There.
( Godspell )
It was a lovely day - sunny, and springlike. I did very little. Worked on a water color, but I don't like how it turned out? So may discard and start another one. Some work, some do not.
Mostly a meditative couple of days, doing very little. Except being watchful and commenting on it here for anyone who wishes to listen.
