I figured as much, but I thought OP might be looking to recreate the childhood experience.

The saddle club is a book series iirc. I just remember the TV show being popular when I was a kid, but I've never been a horse person so I can't say if the books or show are worth it.

Sometimes it can be fun, I've had a fair bit of fun during some rallies by handing my megaphone to loads of different people, we had a counter protest back in April that turned into a dance party too.

I've also been to plenty of scary ones. I had one where I had to run away from violent cops and change into a different outfit behind dumpsters. Sometimes the adrenaline can be fun if it's a more spicy action, usually the nerves go away once you get started.

Patch making, and I've no idea why people are surprised about it tbh. It's really easy if you've got access to a printer (or you can trace from a screen) and a pair of scissors.

That said I have a slightly unusual process where I design stencils in fusion 360 and then print them on my 3D printer, they're durable and reusable that way. I'm still working on improving the final print quality, but I've had some really good results like this gigantic Ash Bricky back patch that took me ~20 hours over three days.

The few times I've been around for the organising of live streams, we've either done it directly to our own socials and/or an independent journo might come and either stream or record some stuff, but I don't think I ever got their names when that's been organised ahead of time.

At one I attended, the organisers provided burner phones for people to livestream an action, I believe to their personal accounts? I never saw the footage of it though.

I met a guy called Big Al on a family camping trip and he was pretty cool. He was the first hippy I ever met, living out of a van and trailer, solar panels all over the roof and making some money selling bags made from men's ties.

I don't really remember what he did other than maybe teaching me a fishing knot, maybe feeding me and showing me some cool stuff. At the very least, it's a very positive memory and possibly part of why I love the off grid dream.

My whole world still feels irreparably broken, but I'm doing a little better every day. I'll probably go back to work next week, although to be honest I could really do with another week or two so I can finish more stuff that'll keep my head above water, but I'll manage I think.

I'm back to working with my collectives already. I'm trying to get my FnB chapter properly organised for once, and I'm trying to set up a WordPress blog for my trans network but self hosting it is a bit annoying.

I started doing a year in pixels thing to track my recovery. I started it on the day I last had to go to hospital, I think I'm progressing well. If I'd started this earlier there'd probably be two weeks of solid red...

Way to go!
I've been struggling with the same sort of problems for a while too, sometimes it's a big win to just get one thing done. Lately for me just making a meal has been a big challenge (I had popcorn for dinner last night). I wish I had any advice that wasn't keep trying and try not to get too stressed out 😅

hugs I hope things get a little easier soon ❤️

I gotta try electrolysis sometime, I've been doing IPL at home because laser was too expensive but I can't get rid of the last bit of facial hair -3-

No clue where the image is from, sorry.

Yeah, figured it would be something relativistic like that, I was just looking at overall power to do that back of the envelope calculation. Considering how high the energy is at ~0.25c, it makes me wonder what the average particle spacing is in the jet at that diameter.

I expect a lot wider too, the jets will diverge of course so it's going to depend on how far away from the star you're measuring. I just took 0.05lyr because it's a size I had a very shitty source for hahaha.
