Ellie Coral's online workbench… mind the mess.
One of the few joys I get from living in a rural area is coming across wildlife. Finding tree frogs in the smallest of spaces in the backyard is probably my best recent memory. A couple of times, I even managed to put a finger inside and gently pat their squishy little heads. I’m sure…
Or Ellie Hasn’t Actually Read the Classic, But She’ll Still Act Smart for Borrowing Elements from It Not too long ago, I was skimming the GameRT Discord when I saw a message. Since I’m not sure of the sharing policy for screenshots, I’ll only share a description and the poster’s message. It was a screenshot…
These furry loaves are lucky I can’t run that fast anymore, because I would give them such a loving on their little bunny heads, yes, I would, and I’ll give their little feetsies all the kisses they can handle, yes, my little long-eared darlings *further devolves into nauseating cutesy speak*
I’ve started taking morning walks around the backyard. Some mornings it’s quiet enough to hear the rabbits leaping across the grass. Other mornings I can hear construction in the farmer’s field where new townhouses are being built. One day, this will no longer be a truly rural area and just another extension of the sprawling…
At my local Friends of the Library, we don’t get terribly unusual donations. But it is springtime, which means we’ll be getting hundreds of boxes, bags, and totes—sometimes in a single week. It gets overwhelming and we don’t know how we’ll store everything until the monthly book sale. After the worrying, we start rifling through…
Or Ellie Has A Lot to Share About Her Recent Journeys The semester is nearly over, and I feel more time being freed up. I’m going to try to enjoy the summer because the fall semester is going to be my busiest, what with two courses and an internship. But if I could survive the…
Or Tarot for Me, All for Me I was asked recently if I still do tarot as a practice and not just for zine material. Of course I do. It’s one of the ways I know I’m on the right path. It’s not that these little cardboard pieces decide what’s right or wrong for my…
Or Ellie Finally Sets Out to Do Something Besides Writing Papers for Grades Make a sandwich and strap in. This could be the last post I make for a while, though I’m starting to make more micro posts, as you can see in the Bluesky widget (to your right… or near the bottom, depending on…
I thought this was going to be an easy semester, at least until things started ramping up towards May. Turns out I miscalculated. It hit this week, starting with a Zoom meeting I hadn’t even known was scheduled. This university loves its Zoom meetings (part of that “new normal” privileged people feared during the pandemic…
Sometimes chatters say the darndest things. I’m a regular in Rev’s chat, so I’ve seen some shit—but this blew my mind. I was hanging out in a chat of fewer than 10 when the streamer started reading messages from a chatter seeking advice. This person and their friends had apparently been dealing with a stalker…
