Summary:
Paranoia is in Matt’s blood, but lately he’s been feeling something new, a constant, creeping awareness at the edge of his senses. Someone or something is hounding him without rest, and whoever it is seems to know Matt is Daredevil. Foggy and Karen are pretty much sick of the trouble Daredevil brings, and Matt has no one to turn to. Or does he?
This story goes AU after Midland Circle.

I’ve had a furry friend keeping me company out by the shed since February; a rabbit has taken up residence nearby :o)

Waiting patiently to see what might be available.

Soooon…
Edit - I just noticed that this bunny is probably a New England Cottontail: there is a dark patch on the forehead and not the white spot of the Eastern Cottontail! Click the pics to expand them.
* I probably mentioned this before in regards to the tiller… When I was about 16 I watched, in awe, mind you, a friend of my sister manually replace a tire on his 1970 Road Runner. He took the original tire off the rim, and replaced it with another, with tire irons. To seat the bead he looped and tied a rope around the center of the tire, tightening it by turning a lug wrench slipped beneath it while filling the tire with air. Heh, I use the rope trick on the tiller tires, when necessary, with baling twine, a crescent wrench, and a hand pump.

Summary:
After the Mage Wars, Dr. Rodney McKay settled down in Lanta to do some founding using his perfectly situated workshop at the edge of town. Is it his fault the locals mistake his electrical experiments as more magic bound to start the troubles all over again?
What other magical secrets does the town of Lanta hold?

Apr. 25th, 2026 04:51 pmClinician Guide: Constellation of Chronic Medical Conditions Commonly Seen in Autistic & ADHD Adults
https://allbrainsbelong.org/all-the-things/
In May 2022, we formed a Task Force of clinicians, patients, and community members to discuss what works (and does not work) to manage these medical conditions or symptoms. We also gathered information from more than 100 autistic adults. These individuals gave feedback based on their personal experiences. The content we share on this website combines evidence-based medicine, lived experience, and our clinical experiences treating patients with these conditions.

Apr. 25th, 2026 09:15 amI've been working my way back through some albums I haven't listened to in decades, to see how they hold up.
I just started a shower with Sisters of Mercy: Floodland, and sang along with the whole first song, despite not having heard it in 30 years.
Brought back a lot of university memories too.
Funny thing, memory.
The Rose That Grew From Concrete
Apr. 24th, 2026 08:12 amDid u hear about the Rose that grew from a crack
in the concrete
Proving nature's laws wrong it learned 2 walk
without having feet
Funny it seems but by keeping its dreams
It learned 2 breathe fresh air
Long live the rose that grew from concrete
When no one else even cared!
