Reintroducing myself! Hi, Rae here. I like #crochet, #fiberarts, #reading (especially Japanese lit), #anthropology (in school for it), #videogames (#stardewvalley, #falcom, especially the Trails/Kiseki series), #languagelearning. Aprendo #español. I’m learning #piano and #singing. I enjoy #writing and #conlanging. I’m really shy (but I think I’m slowly coming out of my shell here), so please be patient with me.

Hi, I'm Rae. Mastodon sounded nice so I decided to try it.
I like #crochet, #reading, and I have an interest in #languages. I'm currently learning Spanish. I'm studying #anthropology in school. I'm really shy so please be patient with me.
Orz I didn't finish anki yesterday.
Would you look at THAT. http://markusmoestue.no/index.php?/news/trip/ (artist built dinosaur bike and rides across Norway on it)
unbelievably sleepy. Maybe I should make tea.
I was genuinely bummed I couldn't do anki with my coffee this morning because my phone went from 100% to 70%. I was like "Wait, no, I thought I had more time!"
Swapped out phone batteries this morning. Hope the new one is good! *Crosses fingers*

Can't find my Minnesota State Mankato sweatshirt that's cozy and warm. Should I wear a Mickey Mouse sweatshirt* or one that probably reflects the truth of today and says that I want to stay home with my dog**? Both equally warm.
*Mickey lacks a pocket but I'll have a coat today so Idc
**No dog picture
*looks at weather app*
😱
*closes weather app*
...I am -not- walking home today!
Brother: I think it would be nice if we had a bed for the cat--
Me: *starts showing him patterns on ravelry*
Brother: Yes, those are nice, but you know we should do a simple mock up to see if he even likes it.
😏 Silly brother. Doesn't he know making the cat bed is more for me? #crochet #fiberarts
The Squonk is said to live in northern Pennsylvania with the defining feature of being hideous and able to cry itself literally into a puddle.
I want 5 of them as pets
A quick pivot in class: a reference to Nelson Mandela in the novel we are reading provided an unplanned discuss about Apartheid, racism, personal sacrifice, and the moral fortitude often needed to confront institutional social injustice and wrong. In a class with 11 year olds, you never know where things will go. Where they went today was insightful and deep, and well worth the detour. Always is. #smallstories
Oh no... I think I handed in the wrong thing for an assignment because it had a really vague name... 😟
I made some modifications to the pattern https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/alma-hat And I still need to finish up some sewing but I'm pleased with how this turned out.

Recibí una evaluación de mis pares en relación a un ensayo. No le gusta mi estilo de escribir #español en una manera de neutralidad génera. (Uso "X" por ejemplo vagabundx). ¿Hay una mejora manera de escribir esto en ensayos semiformales? Prefiero no rendirme si posible. #academia #school #spanish #writing
Okay, maybe I should have named my favorite thing something I eat. I don't eat yarn, unlike my cat. #stardewvalley
General request: if you post pictures, please please include alt text describing the image so that everyone, regardless of visual ability, can enjoy your toot.
Please consider asking others to do this. Optionally, reconsider boosting toots if they don't have alt text.
We all have an opportunity to help shape the culture of this place and I'd love, love, love if it were "oh, everyone posts alt text with their images because that's just what you do."

Good morning musical mastodon! Today I start the F major scale. 😃 #music #piano #slowlybutsurely #slowandsteady I think I would have started this months ago but #Bartók and #mikrokosmos
Hey #fiberarts! Do you ever have trouble staying on task? Like, *starts one project* ("Ooooh that looks good too!" *starts another project*) repeat until end of row? or is that just me? #crochet #knitting
