I figure it's only fitting to do a throwback to my most popular project, hexagon blanket number 1. Including my little furry helper, of course.

one thing about me is that i will lose my mind about the personification of the house

emma woodhouse is the funniest jane austen heroine solely because she spends 95% of her precious free time shipping her friends and trying to set them up and being convinced she is the world's greatest matchmaker and talking about how great it will be once her bestie has her perfect true love and then when she's asked if she's considering getting married anytime soon she's like pfffft GOD no why the FUCK would i do that

I've been reading (listening to the audiobook) The Galaxy and the Ground Within.

And now I'm imagining Pei meeting a human who uses AAC, and the two of them having a good conversation about the similarities and differences between how they each use technology to speak.💙
