Lilian ⚧ @memnus@swingset.social

Ahoy, New folks on swingset.social? Time for an #introductions post!

I'm Lilian, your local Mastodon old-timer and part of the mod team! I'm a thirty-something blue-haired transfeminine queer, living in the Seattle area. I'm an oversaturated solo polyamorous slut, casually kinky, trying to take care of myself and my chosen family. I dabble in all kinds of crafts, always looking for a new way to make useful and beautiful things.

Refraining from off-hand jokes about weapons because that would be gauche on main

I need like a week alone with Fusion 360.

Ryan except it's pronounced like nyan~

Also, today marks two years since I first slapped on an estrogen patch, and damn. What a two years it's been. Here's to the next.

Huge thanks to @Tayatranscendent for the help getting this #IkeaHack attached to my wall.

Is 'soft cloth' a technical term? As in, rub with a soft cloth? Or is that a 'use your best judgment' sort of thing?

A joke on the Panelysts suggests making latkes, but French-toast-ified, but that just sounds super amazing actually??

If there is no Assistant-enabled device nearby, a Google employee is required to answer any "Okay Google" query to the best of their ability. Fortunately, there is a loophole where the rules never specify exactly which ability they must use.

Today's storm count remains stubbornly at zero. Disappointing.

Storm's a'brewin. It's going to be a *lovely* afternoon.

Turns out mahogany is sooty, nasty stuff to work with.

any port in a manteau

I swear I am *this close* to running out and getting an air compressor and a miter saw

That point in a project where all the little flaws and foibles hit critical mass and you realize it's time to scrap it and start again.

'Sup queerdos. (eye contact)

For real though there's something dark about Disney adopting a direct fascist allegory to run enforcement at their parks, and the world's collective reaction is "aww, how cute"

Would someone get kicked out of Disneyland for throwing milkshakes at stormtroopers? Asking for a friend

It may not look like much from this angle, but this is basically weapons-grade glitter. I feel like it needs a warning label.

The pinball machines are on free play, y'all, come on out.

My dear friend Melissa Hall is officially kicking off her City Coucil campaign, tonight from 5 to 8 at the Ice Box! Come say hi, have some bbq, play some pinball, and talk sustainable urbanism.
