I can't help the tears When you can't see me Like I see you

So I’m singing “Diggy Diggy Hole” in the shower because I had it stuck in my head all day. I end up playing with the lyrics to make it female-centric (making the first line “Daughters of the mine, rejoice” and changing “brothers” to “sisters”) because I’m imagining myself as a soprano opera singer with a female choir/metal band in the background. Now I’m suddenly homesick for some made up Erebor-like realm where me and the dwarrowdams (and elf maidens if they want to join- we don’t discriminate!) are digging holes, forging elaborate tools, weapons, and trinkets, cutting gems, cultivating rock formations (because we’d totally have a version of the Glittering Caves), toasting to our glorious Queen Under the Mountain, and feasting to our heart’s content without judgement far below any outside threats. 🥲
The Star Clipper, a Space Shuttle design from Lockheed for NASA.
The craft would have used expendable wrap-around fuel tanks to boost it into space, where it could deposit crew and cargo to orbital platforms.
Psalms 88:13
But to You I have cried out, O LORD, And in the morning my prayer comes before You.
Dear Lord, thank You for the gift of a new day. I offer this day to You. May everything I do today be done with love and for Your glory. Guide my thoughts, words, and actions, and help me to be a source of kindness and encouragement to others. Lord, grant me Your peace this morning. Help me to let go of worry and anxiety, knowing that You are in control. Fill my heart with Your tranquility, and grant me the wisdom to navigate the day with a calm and a quiet spirit.
Father, I give thanks for the abundant blessings You bestow upon me. From the smallest moments of grace to the biggest triumphs, I am grateful for all that you provide and all that You are. May this day and every day be filled with a spirit of gratitude and praise."
In Jesus' name, Amen.
i hate driving. here are the laws! if you break them there will be consequences! except youre also expected to break the law just a little bit. people will get mad at you if you dont. you dont have right of way but the person who does is waving you forward for some reason. here's the speed limit! it's not the speed limit, the actual speed limit is that plus ~5-10. the light is green but you're in the turning lane. can you go? should you have gone just then? the person behind you is honking at you. there's a weird noise coming from your engine; if you try to do the right thing and get it checked out, will you get scammed? you are driving a 1-2 ton metal machine rocketing at speeds unknown to humankind for most of history. around a million people die in car accidents every year; that's about one person every thirty seconds. if you take that seriously and try to drive safely then people get mad at you.
