I spent about an hour tonight playing the 1980 Commodore 64 port of Super Star Trek and I have no regrets. 🎮💻
Want to read: The Coldest Touch by Isabel Sterling 📚
Me: *finds one footnote in article I’m revising, figures out what needs to change about the part that references it, stars those readings in Paperpile* Wow. That was hard work. Time for some Trek Twitter! (This was actually a time-consuming task.)

By DNA, I’m almost half Jewish. I’ve known this my whole life. By religious definitions, I’m not remotely Jewish. On a visceral level, I feel Jew-ish. A friend made me an honorary MOT. Regardless of the degree of my Jewishness, this blog post is full of helpful information.

My first Artist Date!
I don’t think I’m going to write up my annotations for the first chapter/week of The Artist’s Way, “Recovering a Sense of Safety,” for perosnal reasons but I thought I would share the outcome of my first artist date! I searched Google for “junk shop,” found this eBay seller, and created a Pinterest board where I stuck a bunch of items they’re selling that I thought were interesting.
It’s got some big grandma energy, doesn’t it? That’s 50% what junkshops are about and 50% where my head is at. The sweaters are more 10-year-old Kimberly energy. (It was 1991-1992, okay?)
What does this board make you think of?
