       TIL there’s a name for a weird feeling that I actually enjoy having:kenopsian. the eerie, forlorn atmosphere of a place that’s usually bustling with people but is now abandoned and quiet—a school hallway in the evening, an unlit office on a weekend, vacant fairgrounds—an emotional afterimage that makes it seem not just empty but hyper-empty, with a total population in the negative, who are so conspicuously absent they glow like neon signs.#liminal #weirdo

       I got the description from a site called ‘a dictionary of obscure sorrows’ but I’ve deleted the link because it put a creepy image up in the feed that many wouldn’t enjoy…. But Google that if you’re curious about my source.

       #tbt #ThrowbackThursday The lush Victoriana of the Burlington Hotel in Port Costa, CA. Closed now, it was a great restoration of the inn and house of ill repute that it was in the 19th Century.

       Well they can’t call the place Iceland without some ice, right? The Jokulsarlon lagoon here is where they keep it- and you know, show up to inspect it… (jk, I’m sure that’s 90% tourists!)#livestream #BreakfastWithLivestream

       This is bloomless #BloomScrolling …because I’ve always loved ivy, and I thought these young vines looked really nice. Hope you like ‘em too-

       There is a new feature of Mastodon that I wanted to highlight for you all. I had no use for the Lists feature before- but as of the recent 4.2 update, you can put some people you follow into a list- and then you can check a box in that list's details to NOT SHOW their posts in your main feed. This could totally change Mastodon for me, in the best way. I follow some newsy-political accounts, and often rush by them in the feed if I'm not in the mood to hear (more) bad news. Now I can put them in a list and not see them at all in and among the feed of real thoughts, pictures, artwork and jokes you amazing people share.And when I actually feel like engaging with the news/politics of the world, I can pop over to that list and see only that stuff in there. This way you can have customized feeds of different kinds of accounts, and just see your tried and true favorite people in the main feed. It's a multi-Mastodon-feed experience, separated by mood and preference. Which for me is brilliant!

       I don’t usually have anything special to say for May the 4th, but then I remembered this flower- that just might fit in at an alien cantina…#BloomScrolling

       These are (I think) in the hydrangea family for today’s #BloomScrolling    mania.
