@amiserabilist@beige.party @Soldusty@beige.party @MAJ1@beige.party that's kind of hot. My last dream last night involved me back in California, I thought of in my old neighborhood, but I ended up scaling a trail of broken light blue rock to the base of reservoir. None of this was like my old neighborhood there attn @wendinoakland@beige.party A common theme in my dreams is getting to places through unexpected difficulties or obstacles. It'd be nice if my dreams weren't like my real life

@amiserabilist@beige.party @Soldusty@beige.party @MAJ1@beige.party @wendinoakland@beige.party I have a story of an explosion in my lab long ago (other side) that if it hadn’t been for two fortuitous events would have resulted in two casualties Also: my dad asked my mom out to dinner after they had both separately come to see a co worker in the hospital, recovering from an explosion in her lab So don’t diss lab mishaps completely

@amiserabilist@beige.party very cool. I engage the yute of my area with the telescopes and all, and I love to visit with and play with my oldest niece’s children. I think Kid Glass will never become a parent, and that’s ok with me.
