"gravenberch is bad" "gravenberch is not fulfilling his potential" "if we can get the same money we bought him for we should sell him asap" have any of you considered that he was literally held prisoner in bayern munchens basement like he probably didnt even see the sun for a whole year and all they fed him was beer and lederhosens give him some TIME!

I have one of those robot vacuums but there's a mirror in the house low enough to the ground that the lidar scanner can see a nonexistent room in the reflection so on the navigation map it's generated I have a room that doesn't exist that I have to forbid the vacuum from entering.

Same here. We put frosted film on the bottom of the mirrors, which helps, but the vacuum is still convinced that there’s a large, confusingly shaped section of house that we won’t let it visit.

The mirrors are all on closet doors that face each other, and the vacuum thinks the other side of each door is as big as the real room. I bet my vacuum thinks it lives in the House of Leaves.

my process here was

0. roughly photoshop a google maps screenshot over the patchwork... if i ever do this again i will spend more time thinking of how to stylize it

  1. copy by eye onto fabric a rough approximation of the coastline in water-soluble marking pencil. the patchwork works as a grid like in high school art class. if i had a projector this would have been a lot more chill. or if i had printed it out, or done anything other than copy it off my phone screen
  2. cut out with teeny tiny little scissors around the markings, leaving a 1/8-1/4 inch margin. 1/4 is probably safest for future quilt health but it would be lying to say i did that consistently. for the narrowest rivers, just cut along the line
  3. clip along all lines
  4. press margins under. WITH WATER SOLUBLE GLUESTICK. without gluestick i would be dead. the iron sets the gluestick instantly <3
  5. glue all "land" to the blue fabric, taking care to try to line up the "grid." pin it for safety and security
  6. IN THE NEAR FUTURE: hand sew the applique. i guess.

Every time I see a duck I think to myself that I want to pick up that duck. There is a sort of quality of the duck that makes it feel like the act of picking up the duck would somehow be analogous to those strange videos where people use knives to cleanly cut through multilayered cakes. There would be a sort of accumulative act even without taking permanent possession of the duck. It would rather be more like pulling the lever on some ancient machine which makes a counter increase by one. The duck is the lever. I hope my meaning is clear to you all?

total solar eclipses are cool because once you've seen your first one every subsequent experience is actually just as amazing as the first one because a total solar eclipse is one of the most awe-inspiring and mind-bending phenomena you can experience. and it is like that every time

#I think that if aliens make contact and come to earth they will be super impressed with eclipses#because it requires such a specific set of cosmic circumstances to happen#anyway hi from upstate new york#I spent several hours today standing in a field looking at the sun through various mediums#and it was perfect
