@art Do you really boost art? Because all I see of your toots is boosting my two introduction toots... neither of which have art in them...

After not knitting for several months (like, since April) I've waited for temperatures to spike up past 95F/35C to start my next project - a lace sweater! 😩

@guephren I really love the style of your landscapes! Are they traditional or digital?

@datn here, have a kitty I saw on my wall this morning (but other than kitties, I also agree)

Still trying to figure out PixelFed... Have a rose! 🌹

#florespondence

@guinan I have an interesting idea for another character - is your instance open to bots? Because I think Brunt, F.C.A., would be a good one!

I didn't think about it much when living in the UK. Everything was off-kilter, and there's always an adjustment period for a major life event like that. Between stress and new food, I was expecting changes and inconsistencies.

A UK friend visited for three days, and damn if I didn't get my period a few days early AS SOON AS SHE LEFT. >_<

What the hell is it with European women's pheromones totally overpowering mine??

I have always been very reliable and predictable with my period. Even at an all-women's college, my body seemed to keep itself regular.

But when a European woman moved into my house a few years ago, I abruptly and nearly-instantly was switched to her schedule. Just going home for a few weeks at Christmas was enough of a shock that my body took a while to adjust. It wasn't unusual to have a three-week cycle instead of my usual four.

Now that I've got my pixelfed.social accout up and running, I'm going to try to post my #florespondence there - here's the first one : https://pixelfed.social/p/bouncinglime/19131433272610816

What I can't find is a way to add alt-text to photos there, so I'm just using that for the caption. ^_^

@morley 😨

But I would come try it out...
