Today’s deck is the Caticorn Tarot.

Not bad! Would be more into it if the backs were symmetrical, though.
Today’s reading warns about how I might feel the need to Do Something about grief-related things, only to find myself stuck at an impasse.

Here’s a curious Thing on the backend of the blog.
For the longest time I had this issue where if I tried to upload from my phone it’d be very finnicky, showing an error but then if you refreshed the media tab it USUALLY (but not always) has the media uploaded anyways.
The other day I was checking the “website health” tab out of curiosity (it usually lists things I’m not interested in like “connect your social media!” “create a campaign!”) and it had something about the cache so I activated some fancy shmancy caching options.
That fixed the weird upload inconsistency BUT…! On the flipside to that, there’s this very weird bug where if I edit a photo inside wordpress (eg: I crop it), the image is just Fucked. I see it on the editor but the post itself doesn’t have it.
It’s not really a problem I’m worried about because I can just crop with my phone before upload anyways and I’m fiddling with the settings to see which one fixes that specific snag, but it’s certainly interesting. I can also see why it happens with cache involved.

Speaking of blog stuff, despite the title there’s not really any retrospective mood going on, I just thought it’d be fun to point that out. Especially considering that I forgot to point out the 100th one.
The blog’s anniversary is on August 22nd by the way. It’ll actually be interesting to see how many entries I have by then because I HAVE kept to roughly one entry per day (including a period where I couldn’t write them for like 3 days but still made 3 different entries afterwards) but with my chaotic sleep schedule, my notion of a “day” is less accurate.

My day was less eventful than the last few because V wanted to go to Nara and despite me being stuck saying “I should go to Nara sometime” for so long, it was a bit too much of a trip for me.
It’s kinda curious, the problem wasn’t so much the time spent with someone else, it was the trip’s distance specifically for some reason.

I checked the doll shops in Nipponbashi and they’re gonna release new clothes on Saturday so I’m looking forward to that, I had sushi in a place I didn’t have any before, and then just came back.
Not really anything else that exciting beyond that… outside of cleaning up a bunch of open browser tabs, I guess?
My energy levels have been all over the place as of late. I think I don’t eat enough, but also I’ve only slept like 6 hours. I don’t feel bad I’m just not used to feeling like the bed is calling for me so early… only for me to be awake at like 4AM anyways so it’s more of a midday nap.

I’m starting to feel the itch for photography overcome me, especially with my photoanniversary coming up. But there will be time for that.
I can take photos anytime, but friends don’t visit that often.
