International Cat Day 2022

Today, August 8, is International Cat Day! In celebration of our feline friends, we’re sharing this lovely wood engraving of a Siamese cat by English wood engraver Chris Daunt. The wood engraving was made for a new book by David Blamires titled When in Doubt, Wash! and printed on the publication announcement for the book from Incline Press. 

The back of the publication announcement features a poem by English poet Christina Rossetti (1830-1894) titled “On the Death of a Cat: A Friend of Mine Aged Ten Years and a Half” and an image printed in yellow of a cat wearing a bow chasing a ball of yarn. The poem is credited as having been “Printed by Thomas Mouser at his Catnip Press”—cute! 

Also included here are my two cats, Smudge and Beez. They bring so much  joy to my life (not to mention fluff and cuteness) and I hope you have cats (or other pets!) in your life who do the same! 

Now go pet a cat!

It wouldn’t make sense for tz’s teams to publish articles like that near her release date It is surely amy given sm4 announcement is also around the corner

someone else in my inbox said why does it even matter, it’s really not that deep, but I’m just curious now: why wouldn’t it make sense for tz’s teams? genuinely why would soft launching a big mile stone in their relationship not make sense?

(some of you need to get your 1.0 bias glasses off I fear)

in what little free time she has at camp, arlis will occasionally press flowers into a leather bound book she finds early on in act i. it's soothing for her and a way for her to calm herself down she's stressed or anxious (as is especially the case in the first half of act i). with time, and as she knows to get the rest of the party better, she includes flowers that remind her of each companion. after the main game's events, she gives them to each person as a parting gift.

#* : hc. #i am reclaiming pressing flowers so help me #i love my death coded girl whos naturally inclined towards rooted growing things #some time ill do a proper post about what flowers she chooses for each party member but i gotta do my research first

Summer Solstice 2022

Today marks the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year and the first day of Summer! While some in our office consider this a sad day as it means the days will only get shorter from here on out, we’re choosing to think positively and celebrate the vibrant blooms of summer that can be found all around us. Here we have The Rose-Bud, the Rose and the Thorn by Scottish poet Robert Burns (1759-1796). 

Published in 1994 by the Incline Press in an edition of 250, the book features rose printers’ ornaments, an engraving of a linnet resting in a briar by Ann Tout, and hand marbled cover paper by Ann Muir in “the colours of the budding rose.” Our copy is signed by Graham Moss, the proprietor of the Incline Press, and was a gift of our friend, Jerry Buff. 

The poems by Robert Burns all feature the rose as a key image. My favorite is “My Love Is Like a Red, Red Rose":

My luve is like a red, red rose, That’s newly sprung in June; My Luve is like a melodie, That’s sweetly play’d in tune.

As fair art thou, my bonie lass, So deep in luve am I; And I will luve thee still, my Dear, Till a’ the seas gang dry.

Till a’ the seas gang dry, my Dear, And the rocks melt wi’ the sun; And I will luve thee still, my Dear, While the sands ‘o’ life shall run.

And fare-thee-well, my only Luve! And fare-thee-well, a while! And I will come again, my Luve, Tho’ ‘twere ten thousand mile!

I especially like the part about rocks melting in the sun. That’s pretty metal for an 18th century love poem! 

Have a lovely solstice and try not to think too hard about the days getting shorter!

you guys ever think about the milgram shock experiments? i think about the milgram shock experiments a lot. they feel kinda relevant right now for some reason. hm

#marzi speaks #marzirants #humans are inclined to follow orders. it is how our brain works #we inherently don’t like starting conflict so we tend to do what we’re told #if we don’t like doing what we’re told to do then we tend to try to come up with a justification for it #in the case of the shock experiments it was ‘i will not be responsible if someone is hurt. it will be the testers’ fault’ #we eventually decide to resist when the cognitive dissonance of commiting the action becomes more than that of disobeying #which is at a different point for each person #some people are better at resisting orders than others. this may be inherent but is (by my hypothesis) more likely to be practiced #some people- in an attempt to justify their actions- almost adopt a persona able to commit crueler crimes #one man mentioned being disgusted with himself in the debrief of the experiment #during the experiment he had become almost sadistic- pressing the button more than was necessary and smiling upon hearing screams of pain #they were fake but he didn’t know that at the time #all this to say. we are all incredibly susceptible to propaganda- especially from those we view as authority figures #be it from a government or people we simply look up to #so. when a government-lead genocide occurs. it is not a good idea to blame every citizen of that government for it #chances are any citizen assisting the government fell for the propaganda. chances are you’ve fallen for some of your own #because even with our desires to justify bad things. a genocide is a lot for someone to justify #so . to assume an entire population is cruel simply because their government is #would be. bad. especially if that population already has some separate negative stereotypes about them #which are inherently insiduous and could be dogwhistled in to a lottt of language #um. hold people accountable for sure #but make sure they’re actually responsible for anything first #and be careful not to fall for propaganda of your own. because it is not something that just ‘the bad guys’ make #mkay. getting off my soapbox now. i have homework to finish and a shower to take

Nakon 11 nedelja

Nakon jedanaest nedelja terapije, otišao sam na kontrolu. Za potrebe kontrole, vadio sam krv zbog FT4, TSH i TRAb vrednosti.

Pre početka terapije, FT4 je bio 45.5. Nakon 5 nedelja terapije, FT4 je 30.6. Nakon 11 nedelja terapije, FT4 je 18.2. Eutiroidizam je uspostavljen. Endokrinolog je zadovoljan. Navodi da upornije nizak TSH i viši TRAb govore da sam malo rezistentniji pacijent na lečenje i podiže doze Tiamazola. Ideja je da, do sledeće kontrole, TSH bude na zadovoljavajućem nivou.

Nastavljam sa terapijom, doze lekova:

Tiamazol:

Do kontrole (23.11.2023): 1x30mg dnevno, subotom i nedeljom 1x20mg dnevno

Propranolol:

Do kontrole (23.22.2023): 2x20mg dnevno

Osećam se drastično bolje. Danas sam uradio kosi benč 115kg x 6 i to je najbolji rezultat koji sam postigao od početka terapije. Praktično, to je nivo snage koji sam imao pre dijagnostikovanja Grejvsove bolesti. Apetit mi je odličan, san takođe (kada pratim telo i legnem "ranije" na spavanje), koncentracija bolja (počinjem da vraćam fokus za rad, čitanje i razmišljanje).

hope I didn't just rort my hips and back ☹️

#i was doing inclined leg press in an extra set #got half way through then i must have lost some pressure because it came flying downward #so you instinctively try to push back or block #sudden impact of 100kg

does anyone else, instead of burping, make a sound akin to a squawk and/or dog bark

#they are NOT hiccups. my hiccups are very different #sometimes it sounds like a bird squawk. sometimes like a bark. and sometimes like a yap. #also occasionally like a squeaky toy getting hydraulic pressed #this happens very frequently for me! at least daily #im inclined to believe its like a replacement for burping #as i do not burp except for very rare occasion #and it happens more when i drink something carbonated or move a lot after eating

The constant struggle between

"I have *got* to stop writing my original content as if it's a fanfic where ppl have a pre-establisbed idea of the world" vs "literally no one is going to read this except for me what the fuck does it matter if other ppl don't know what's going on"

#i still have 0 evidence a single soul has read Red Snow except a kind beta reader who i think stopped 60% of the way through so #this isnt for anyone else its for me #i might go back and reformat the way i have the first book laid out cuz its not great #ive also been debating just making it a website rather than posting it on itchio #cuz i feel like if i have it online ppl might be more inclined to read jt #or maybe i could just upload it as like a separate tumblr account #make it my own little fanfic press but for my own original work
